This is incredible. Do you happen to have links to the earliest known videos/photos of the storm? I see some camera angles as it was coming through Hamilton shortly after touching down.

Indeed! I have 92 of the 93 linked on the .kmz; one I forgot to upload the photo and link to it and so it's just there as a placemark.

These are the four main ones leading up to Hackleburg; there's a few others but they aren't geolocatable and thus I don't have them on those graphics.

There's also this one but I'm not sure if it is at the start or end of its life, if it even is HPC.

The random fifth dot you see far from the tornado in the graphic is an accident; that one shows Smithville and not HPC.
This is awesome, thanks!
It has all the attributes of those “high-end/generational days”, the early wispy multi-vortex as it adjusts to the high shear, funnel tilt, and that fast broadening to a more stove pipe appearance. Almost reminds me of Rainsville and Cullman.
