Happy Tuesday everyone! Another day of thunderstorms raking across Oregon today, and with that, came a tornado. Check out the path of damage map courtesy of the fine meteorologists at the NWS Portland office.

This was most likely a cold core tornado meaning that it formed in a cold atmosphere vs. the warm juicy atmosphere where the big tornado forms. Cold core funnels and tornadoes still have the towering cumulus clouds but less moisture. You can read more about them here.
After riding out the big downpour at Bushwhackers, I headed home to tape the latest edition of the CorserCast, today's episode is staring Brian Wheeler, the voice of the Portland Trail Blazers.
