When I first heard the reports yesterday of a huge tornado passing thru 
Sanford, NC on its way to Raleigh I became concerned for a friend of 
mine who lives in Apex, NC which is between Sanford and Raleigh. 
Fortunately he and his wife are fine but the tornado did pass about 3/4 
mile from their house on its way to Raleigh after totally destroying a 
Lowe's home improvement center in Sanford.  I've looked at several 
hundred pictures this morning and the damage is far beyond what I would 
expect from a typical North Carolina tornado.  Reports are that this one 
was about 1 mile wide.

There is some scary video footage here shot from a camera mounted on top 
of the RBC bank building, the tallest building in Raleigh.  The tornado 
is BIG!
