A YouTube video of a ‘super’ tornado on the highway to Monterrey has gone viral.

YouTube user Melissa Estrada posted the video late Thursday afternoon.

According to Estrada, the video was recorded on between Kilometers 68 and 70 of the Nuevo Laredo-Monterrey Highway around 3:30 p.m.

The video shows the tornado, hail and other severe weather conditions along the highway.

“Don’t be afraid… It’s the worst thing you can do right now,” a woman said in the video as they drive on the highway.

The tornado reportedly knocked over an 18-wheeler on the median of the highway.

“It could’ve easily been us,” Estrada wrote on YouTube.
