Can you imagine this being your FIRST tornado?! It was mine... 😬🌪️ An EF4 near Great Bend, Kansas. The roar was deafening as a 400-yard-wide, 170 mph tornado crossed right in front of us — with Tim Samaras’s tail lights glowing in the distance. A true legend. 🙏 It carved a 50-mile path through central Kansas in 2012, and somehow… no lives were lost. #EF4Tornado #GreatBendKS #StormChasing #ExtremeWeather #NatureUnleashed #fblifestyle | Ricky Forbes
