If you're talking about the one near Brannigan, is it just me, or can you actually see the rotation in the radar loops?

Amazing how much the atmosphere is conducive to large tornadoes this year.

I don't see anything unusual. We just know about every large tornado as it happens. In fact, you can probably find streaming video of every strong tornado as it happens now.

Looks like the tornado is basically stationary on radar now.

I don't know how big that town is, but I'd sure hate to be there right now.

It just seems like every storm is dropping huge wedge tornadoes.

I can't really tell where it's going. It's almost just sitting there spinning a hole in the ground.

Rotation signature appears to be retrograding back towards the west slowly.

I've noticed that too. We've not seen a lot of tornadoes this year, but the ones that have formed seem a lot more violent. Seems to be a higher tornado-to-strong-tornado proportion this year.

Obviously flash flooding is becoming a serious worry. This storm hasn't really moved in over an hour.

According to several chasers the Bennington wedge was up to a mile wide, lifted now. Wobbled around just west of Bennington for ages - damage to two farm houses, no injuries reported.

Should be a pretty well documented one considering it didn't move much.
