May 9th, 2003 One of my most frightening encounters in all my years of tornado chasing. A night time tornado in the town of Yukon, Oklahoma. The debris starts to fly and chase partner, Ron Gravelle and I scramble to seek shelter behind a shopping mall.
After a few minutes we continue to chase the tornado which is now wrapped in rain. Listen to the radio announcer as we approach the Britton Road overpass. We almost drive into the tornado a second time.
This is why I hesitate to storm chase at night anymore.
