Enid, Oklahoma, USA – Video filmed by X user Wes Veitch shows a powerful supercell storm from ground level in Enid, as noted in the post’s caption: “Man I thought it looked cool from the ground, the view up top was amazing! (quoting the aerial video by Ben Levine)”.

The nearly 60 second shaky handheld nighttime footage shows a massive dark supercell cloud rising over the horizon under a pitch black sky. Repeated bright white and purple lightning flashes erupt inside and beneath the cloud base, briefly illuminating its churning structure.

Rain shafts and shelf like formations appear during the lightning bursts, while distant city lights glow faintly along the horizon. The camera remains mostly steady with natural handheld movement, capturing the storm’s raw intensity as it moves across the area.

The clip was recorded on the evening of April 23, 2026, into early April 24, during a severe weather outbreak that produced a strong, long track tornado in Enid.

The same system caused significant damage to homes and led to a rare tornado emergency issued by the National Weather Service. No injuries were reported from this specific ground level viewpoint.

The footage adds to aerial views taken from a Delta flight, showing the storm from both ground and air as it impacted the region.
