I'm very saddened to read of your loss from that day. I have another hour or two of raw video from our survey of the Andover, Kansas F5 tornado damage. It was a very sobering experience for a young meteorologist, fresh out of college.My meteorologist friends and I can learn a lot by forecasting, chasing, surveying, and studying tornado outbreaks like this. The end result are improved forecasts, warnings and safety advice.

Thanks for posting this. Just wondering if you have any more video from the 27th. One of my big brothers and my brother-in-law spent most of the day out there looking for my mom. But my sister and I found her instead, in the mourge. My step dad was found in the mourge on the 26th. Because he had his wallet on him, they contacted his family that night. They didn't just loose the things they owned, they lost their lives. There is still a big hole in our family that use to be occupied by them.

The Andover tornado produced F5 damage which is as bad as it can get. I'm sorry to read about your losses and hope your life is good now.

I lived in Andover during this time and lost everything I ever worked for. I was 20 years old and had my first child. It was the worst of the worst in my life. 6 years later, I lost another home in Kansas, from a Tornado. Life has moved on and yet, I have never ever seen a real tornado.

I just don't know how to call this kind of destruction. The "finger of God" is such a terrible thing. It sounds silly but I fell in love with this "monsters" when I was a little boy, I'm so sorry for the families of the victims...my prayers are with them...
