It turns out I may have actually bagged one on Tuesday north of Hopkinsville, KY. I'm not certain enough to say for sure, but the evidence is convincing. I read the tornado report this morning on the SPC log page for Crofton, KY on Old Palestine Road, Christian County at 1:35Z (7:35PM CST), and decided to take a closer look at my video. I was parked on Covered Wagon Road just south of Crofton, with the camera set up facing west-southwest.
