The tornados in 1974 hit the west side of ohio (less than five miles from where I live today) and literally carved a path through the countryside that you can still see today.
Towns like Harrison Ohio (now a city) show major signs as the differences between the construction methods before the tornado and post tornado are vastly different. its been 48 years since then and it is still blatantly obvious where this all went down.
all populated areas have "storm sirens" which are sounded every month on the first weds of the month as a test, any other time if you hear them you prepare and take shelter.
mentioning yellowstone at the end… yea, if it does go, we're all screwed… bad thing is its like 20,000 years past due by the most recent studies.
I live in El Paso Texas and the hottest here has been 116F. Crazy… hot.
People that have experience with tornadoes, understand the difference between a tornado warning and a tornado watch. Watch: Conditions are right for a future severe thunderstorm or tornado. Watches are issued hours in advance, so you watch to see if a tornado is likely to touch down. Warning: A severe thunderstorm or tornado has been sighted in person or by radar. Seek shelter now.
Circumference or wide? As a storm chaser and teacher of meteorology, the largest tornado ever recorded was the El Reno, Oklahoma 2013 with a "diameter" ( wide) of 2.5 miles (4.02km)…it's circumference would be about 7 miles (11.26km). However, the condensation funnel (what you see) was 1 mile ( 1.6km). I can accept the 5 mile circumference claim…but not 5 miles wide…he needed to make his statement more clear.
You don't always get warnings for tornados. Sometimes they develop right on top of you or to near to where you are.
California has a Mediterranean climate, similar to Greece and Spain. Those countries also have an active fire season in the summer months, some of it just as devastating.
Do a video on tornadoes that were caught on film and close up. They are absolutely terrifying and they will show you exactly what they do and how destructive they are.
Just 2 weeks we had 50° swing in 24 hours.
One of our local TV stations has an ap you can sign up for so you get warnings 24/7 whenever they happen, and there's a siren just down the block from me. The station preempts programming to track the storms and will tell you how much time you have to find a hole to hide in.
I've seen a tornado before. I live in Iowa
In Furnace Creek, California in the summer of 2021, the temperature rose to 135°F (57°C), the highest temperature ever recorded on planet Earth.
#2 on the list, I remember explicitly. That weather event went through my dad's town, initially just missing his house, then again when it doubled back. He escaped (with my niece & his service dog) using old logging roads, but had no cell service and was touch-and-go for a bit trying to get his location. The roads he had to take ended up breaking his front end suspension and finding hotels that accepted dogs thereafter proved to be an added stressor along with the heat. Driving through, the devastation was unbelievably heartbreaking. Seeing a place you've considered home reduced to ashes was… Unfathomably gut wrenching. After living in the area close to 20 years, I was used to wildfires… but this was a whole other creature.
I lived in Alaska n the coldest day I felt was -30degrees Fahrenheit
I live in Iowa we are dead center of tornado alley, you don't always get a warning because they have to drop before there's a warning, no one goes to the basement for a watch (we go out to watch 😉) but tornadoes are like drunk drivers, they are out there and can hit you but are too unpredictable to just avoid.
People in the South and Midwest experience these tornadoes at any given moment most of us are used to it but they are a sad sad situation
I've actually seen it rain mud in Roswell, NM one time. A dust storm collided with a severe thunderstorm while a buddy and I were driving through on a road trip and it literally started raining mud on us making it impossible to see out the windshield even with the wipers on full.
I live in Norman Oklahoma so tornados are a normal thing for me every year.
The tornado that hit in 1974 was terrifying. I was a teen at piano lessons. The music store sent everyone away, locked the building. I was standing outside watching the tornado destroying everything. I could see everything flying around. My parents were home hiding in the basement. Once it past, my mom arrives to pick me up. She couldn’t believe I was left standing outside with a freaking tornado in front of me! Thank God I wasn’t injured. Many died! Xoxo
I've personally experienced-40 degrees farenheit with a -90 degrees F wind chill (-40C, -67.7C with the wind) twice: 23 December 1988, and 24 December 1984.
August 16, 1983 had an official temperature of 108 degrees F (42.2C) but when factored with average daily humidity as low as 50% (its usually higher), the heat index was 144 degrees F (62.2C).
Europe was plenty hot during summer 2015, too.
The thing that's doubly terrible about devastating weather events such as tornadoes is that sometimes the whole town is affected. Your house can be destroyed, and then you see that your job is gone, too!
Raining spiders?! 😲
That would be my worst nightmare!!
Nature is, as Richard Dawkins said, "The greatest show on earth"
You guys should react to tornado sirens videos
I've been through several hurricanes, a tornado and an earthquake. They were so scary.
You should look up the May 3 1999 tornado. Over 300 mph wind speed from that one. That one passed a about 1.5 miles north of my house in Moore Oklahoma. Whereas the May 2013 tornado did hit my house when it went through Moore.
I was born in Northern WI at 8 we waited at bus stop at 65 below with wind chill
We also have so many forest fires because of bad forest management.
There is hardly a warning for tornados we still can't truly tell what they will do or where they could go
Dude you talk to damn much
What's scary is that while all these incidents were considered rare and historic, in the last decade events like this are becoming more common. But people refuse to acknowledge the role climate change is playing in it. Manmade or not.
1971 or 2, I think it was Hurricane hazel devastated a lot of the East Coast and flooded the southern part of border of Pennsylvania and New York.
The tornadoes, kategory 5 in Oklahoma, 1999, were extremely brutal. Completely Wiped out an entire town…tossed box-cars several yards…and there were many fatalities and widespread devastation.
You don't get a lot of warning with tornados…they take down power and the warning sirens first
137F / 58.3C is common in death valley …
I live in Ohio. There are sirens for tornadoes but it depends how close you live to it to hear it at night especially in the middle of the night! And we dont always get the warnings in time to take cover! Years ago we had one that bounced around our area. Luckly it skipped over our town but the building i worked got hit hard!
You should go and experience tornado season, I bet your commentary would change drastically, more so if you are not lucky.
Yes, I live in West Michigan, basically right between Detroit and Chicago and it definitely gets cold here! It is 6°F today, which is normal but still very cold. When I was younger, I lived in South Dakota which is on the Great Plains, a very flat part of the country between the Midwest, where there are hills and the Great Lakes, and the West where our largest mountain ranges begin. We’d have school canceled because the wind chill was -60°F. It got COLD cold there. I like winter, but that is too cold even for me.
Hate cold weather.
You don't have tornadoes in England? Lucky!!!
Here in Southern California Inland Empire, it gets really hot during the summer, but, we also get really warm, strong winds called the Santa Ana's sometime in Fall. So our fire seasons are long. Unfortunately, a lot of these fires are caused by arsonists.
We were at – 24 in my part of Wisconsin this morning. That being Wednesday, January 26
California- earthquakes and brush fires. That's why its called "shake and bake country".
You don't get a huge warning ahead for tornados.. The area I lived in the alarmed sounded once. But it doesn't sound for the length of the storm. We turned the radio on, but only caught the end of the broadcast that there was a tornado, but we missed the info of where it was located. It turned out it was down the street from us and destroyed our home. We lived through what was considered the deadliest tornado. I have since moved from the area. So it may not hold that anymore. It was Joplin, Missouri May 23, 2010 5 pm. I will never forget this.
Every town has tornado siren some multiple and not all can be predicted
About to get 12+ inches of snow here in Massachusetts on Saturday.
We do have Tornado Warnings, but it doesn't give you very much of a warning before it comes. Also, the Tornado Warnings are not set up everywhere and are, at times, hard to hear.
