I wonder what first responders think of this. It would seem to me storm chasers like this, especially in a populated area (as opposed to a farm field) and so close to a storm would be just one more thing I'd have to worry about. Especially since, in one part of the video, they almost run someone else off the road.

But it IS amazing video. I hope I never ever see one of these in person, and my heart goes out to everyone who had to endure this awful storm.
