Rt 30 By-Pass tornado - near West Goshen, pa

yea, he got nervous and pulled away when the twister was on the ground.

just lucky and driving in the storm on the right road/right time etc.

 

Yeah, I really wouldn't know what to do? If I was doing 60-70mph....and the twister is moving (wherever?), you kind of lose perspective?

Amazing stuff.  Hard to believe I work in West Goshen Twp, was outside and saw the storm approx. 3-4 miles to my northwest, everyones cell phones went off with the tornado warning and we had a gust of wind, a few drops of rain, then back to partly sunny.

I have not traveled that area in some time.

According to my brother, the twister touched down east of Rt 202 between Exton & Frazier (West Goshen area) on the Rt 30 by pass.

Approximatley near the area between Rt 401 & Boot road. Mentioned Immaculata College was not to far away.

I took these images yesterday in Washington Twp & Mt Olive Twp in Morris County, NJ on my drive home from work which turned into a mini chase . It got close to producing. Last image is a screen capture near the end of a five minute video I shot as it organized near Netcong, NJ.

Solid photos. Looks like a decent funnel cloud in the 2 photos.
