OKAWVILLE, Ill. (CNN) - Some dramatic video out of Illinois where storm chasers got a good look at a tornado.

It happened Tuesday evening near the town of Okawville, just outside Saint Louis.

Authorities say the storm brought winds strong enough to blow over a semi trailer and hail the size of tennis balls.

At least three houses were damaged by the storm.
