I can assure you that the calmness is probably down to years of experience of CSWR studying, tracking and filming tornadoes.
This was a new and exciting experience for the 23 Degrees team, and the last day we had to track a tornado. The team that were out there were both flabbergasted and relieved to have caught the tornado
The team are back now but it was definitely worth their wait
