Aftermath from northeast Pensacola filmed by storm chaser Jim Edds of http://www.extremestorms.com/ This tornado developed out in the Gulf of Mexico and came ashore near Orange Beach, AL. When it reached the shore it was disorganzed, likely transitioning from over the water to over the land. With each new doppler radar frame the circulation began to get better organized. A tornado warning was kept in place for the area northeast of Orange Beach to Pensacola. Then just before crossing I10 the tornado touched down and continued to strengthen to EF 3 intensity at Scenic Hwy. The Moorings apartments exhibited EF3 damage as did the Westinghouse property. The Tornado reached max intensity over Pensacola Bay, continuing northeast. The above video shows the Northpoint area, and the Moorings apartments after the tornado.
