The tornado itself was near the sprawling acres of farmland that surrounds Sedgwick right off of a two-lane highway.

According to StormChasingVideo's description of the video, the footage was shot on the evening of Tuesday, May 7th, 2022 while it was still light outside. The storm chasers that recorded the footage were meteorologists by the names of Juston Drake and Simon Brewer.
