The National Weather Service (NWS) issued a tornado warning for parts of Waco, Texas, on Friday, April 26.

Diana King captured this footage of a funnel cloud swirling in China Spring, about 10 miles northwest of Waco. She told Storyful it’s “not uncommon to get a tornado warning around this area, but it was neat to actually see the tornado.”

“It was not on the ground for long and dissipated quickly,” King said.

The NWS urged residents of central and north-central Texas to prepare for severe weather through Friday evening. Credit: Diana King via Storyful
