Info from Licensor: "My son and I were caught in a microburst (sudden downpour with high winds and hail). We had pulled over at a convenience store. I saw a break in the clouds and on the radar so I decided I’d try to make it out of town before it got worse. The first part of the video is us taking cover, followed by the resulting flooding on the way out of town. I’ve heard of this area of Amarillo flooding but I had never seen it. There is a lot of road and neighborhood construction which no doubt added to the flooding. We made it through the flooding and home just fine."
