Hailee Oman, who shot the first video, had just moved to the area and was attempting to seek shelter with her family when the Tornado Warning sounded. While her family was able to safely avoid the twister, others in her new town weren't so lucky. 

"As the rain started to slow, we turned down this neighborhood, and it was completely obliterated," Oman said.
