It missed him barely but it was a high end EF-4 so he could have been killed.

I won't watch anything posted by a chaser, at all. I won't contribute to them in any way.


I haven't see any totals yet from SPC or the area WFOs. Aside from a couple of extremely unfortunate incidents, how much of an event was this?
