This #supercell in SW Oklahoma was in the beginning stages of tornadogenesis. You can see that area in the bottom area of the storm that looks more laminar (smooth). You get that smoothness due to falling pressures forcing condensation, and it’s usually the visual cue I use to recognize that a tornado is imminent. There are usually other prominent signs before this, leading up to the big moment…but this is absolutely the moment I usually say, “Tornado imminent” on video.
