This was suprisingly intense, I wish he wasnt so shaky though.

Dont know how strong a tornado has to be to down trees like it did, but that was probably EF1 or so.

I saw this video on a different site a few days ago. probably youtube. It was a little bit clearer. It is amazing how it ripped that small tree apart.

That was a pretty good little tornado. I am surprised they arent saying more when it was right in front of them.

Okay, sorry. I didnt realize there was a thread on this already. :o
