EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Watch As Possible Tornado Begins To Form

March 10, 2011

NorthEscambia.com shot video of storm clouds swirling and rotating Wednesday morning in Walnut Hill. The video was shot on Highway 97 near, and almost directly over, Ernest Ward Middle School. Moments later, an Escambia County Sheriff’s deputy reported a funnel cloud on the ground near North Highway 99 and Mayhaw Road, about one mile away.

Within minutes, the storm with an unconfirmed tornado had damaged or destroyed several homes near McDavid.

If you do not see the video at the top of the page, it is because your home, work or school firewall is blocking external YouTube videos.
