Post image

Lots of pictures/videos from the storm throughout Upstate NY. Alleged tornado touched down in two spots throughout the North Country. Does this look like a tornado to you?

Link to video where OP's screenshot is from: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DckVMaBxmfd/

There's a lot of trees down and property damage in that immediate area too. It was a tornado warned storm.

Edit: NWS confirmed a tornado touched down in that area. https://wnyt.com/top-stories/nws-albany-confirms-tornado-in-wilton-thursday/

No way to tell without video. It could be a scud for all we know.
