Storm Chasing: May 25th, 2008 Hugo Tornado

Kristen and I met up with Bill and Cullen Doms in the far northwestern suburbs where thunderstorms were forecast to develop. A thunderstorm developed and quickly moved east. We eventually fell 10 minutes behind in the north metro area construction and road closings, but were witness to a path of destruction of a tornado moving east. Unable to catch up, we headed home on I-35E and once again encountered the tornado’s path were it had crossed the highway, knocking down trees and branches.

A thick layer of leaves and hail mark the path of the "Hugo" tornado on 35E.
