This is a video taken of a tornado near Arthur, IA a couple of weeks ago. The video was shot by Marcus Hicks who is a part of the Extreme Weather Chase Team. They will be doing some chasing and storm spotting for us this year so you will be seeing more of their LIVE streaming video on the air and online during severe weather coverage.
