I did this picture a couple of years ago. This is of the Rochelle-Fairdale EF4 tornado that happened on April 9, 2015. This tornado lasted 41 minutes and traveled over 40 miles. Thankfully only really hitting open fields(there was damage to houses that was out on the fields, some that met the requirement for the EF5 rating, but I digress) until Fairdale was in the direct path and suffered terrible damage (EF5 damage was there, but again I digress). This rendering is from a famous video of the tornado coming towards this older gentleman house.
