Tornado-chasers there covered seven hours and 150 miles (241 kilometers) tracking the supercell thunderstorm that produced this cloud formation.

Yes we live in Childress...It was very destructive, but the weather service declared there was never a tornado....

That's because what we see in the picture is not a tornado, but a mesocyclone. It can produce tornadoes, but is not a tornado itself.
