Scottsbluff is a city in Scotts Bluff County, Nebraska, United States. The population was 14,732 at the 2000 census. Scottsbluff is the largest city in the Nebraska Panhandle, and the 12th largest city in Nebraska.

Scottsbluff was founded in 1900 across the North Platte River from its namesake, a bluff which is now a National Park called Scotts Bluff National Monument. The smaller town of Gering had been founded south of the river and the two cities have since grown together to form the 7th largest urban area (Scottsbluff Micropolitan Statistical Area) in Nebraska.

The nearby Western Nebraska Regional Airport (BFF) is the third busiest airport in Nebraska in terms of passenger boardings.

The storms brought several weak tornadoes, very strong winds, gigantic hail, and very heavy rains. In the video package that Tony shot, it opens up with various sky shots of turbulent, rotating clouds over the north side of Scottsbluff, Nebraska. The video transitions to during storm with very large hail falling and very strong winds blowing hailstones and leaves around while drivers were seeking shelter under a church overhang. The next few clips show Three (3") inch and larger hailstones against a ruler to show the size of the hail that was falling in the area. The video ends with footage of minor road flooding in Scottsbluff, NE along with a several grain silos that were blown across some railroad tracks along US-26 east of Scottsbluff, NE.

This was taken outside my husbands work. He didn't realize his phone was set to only record 30 seconds so this is why it is a short recording.
