Darling Downs supercell storm November2012

Found this on the South Brisbane Storm Chasers webpage.
Some of the best amateur storm footage I have ever seen from Australia.
And it happened not all that far way from our Leyburn observing site.
WARNING there are a just a very few swear words in it, but you can understand why. It runs 19 mins and from 8 minutes on all hell is unleashed and there is some great footage of rotation. Some sensational lightning strikes you will play again and again.
If moderators are unhappy with this then delete it, but it is sensational footage.

Like the one where a street light is hit and bursts into flames about 100m or so in front of them? Haven't seen that before....
