How can a tornado be wrapping in rain, yet covered in (and surrounded by) so much dust? The dust came first. Though not necessarily obvious from this perspective, a good deal of the wrapping rain also was outside the dust at this point, though some was intermingled, since the precip cascade below cloud base was relatively young. What fell over the next few minutes, in the hook, was a muddy melange that would make anyone’s windshield a major mess, and driving even more risky than usual in immediate proximity to an erratically moving tornado. That is yet another good reason to stay out of the “bear’s cage”!
