Drone tornado: video shows formation process of long track tornado 4k Kentucky USA May 26, 2024 

Thanks Hank!

Our pleasure!

@@WxChasing hey i am jasmine leshae walker

Thank you.

Some of the best footage I have ever seen. Yes and no screaming!

This is the way!!!

@@WxChasingplease Slow down video speed @7 seconds in and watch that orb of lightning streak through more in the 8 second shot!!! WHAT WAS THAT?? YALL KNOW WEATHER PHENOMENON BETTER THAN ME.

@@WxChasingPLEASE SLOW DOWN VIDEO SPEED @7 seconds in and watch that light beam from left to right in the upper cloud mass!!! Tell me what type of weather that is?!?! Please get back with me and tell me I’m not seeing things!!!???

@@qwaszx2 He said it was more professional, not more intelligent.

​@afdkj Actually no he isn't writing all of the papers on tornado research at all. Stop posting misinformation.

​@afdkj It means he has self control. Not lead by his emotions. He makes decisions with thought and logic. In quietness and confidence is our strength. He allows the work of his hands to declare his strength of emotions and who he is as a man. His humanity. I do not believe others to be judging by someone's loudness of emotion. I believe they are pointing out the difference of emotional strength. Big difference. One's emotion is that of a child uncontrolled. One appears to show control and confidence. Hope you learn to recognize the difference. Wisdom you will need as you age. Blessings.

This “person” is a drone and was nowhere near the tornado. Reed screams, and rightly so, because he’s looking death in the eyes to get footage that can be studied and is IN IT. No need to be nasty. I’d rather hear his screaming for a good reason than read all these complaints about his good work.

​@user-wg4qd7tu3l Reed screams even when not in danger and can be over the top annoying. His content is great so you tolerate it.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Every storm chase needs to have a drone as the footage you can get at elevation is fantastic... I'm in the DFW area and am a FPV drone pilot since 2016, would love to try and put a drone straight into one. If interested in trying to get some incredible footage, I would love to give it a try if your interested 👍🏻.

Did you eye ufo fly though the tornado Wes Ryan.

I was watching Ryan as well, I live in Grayson county and I knew things could get bad all over our state ❤🙏❤️

Yesterday was nuts Ryan trying to hit all the different locations with tornadoes on the ground. Andy taking a vacation still chiming in, on the ground cooking burgers and storm chasing 😂❤ Great footage here. 💕🤗🙏🇺🇸😃👍

Max Velocity & Ryan Hall sound and look alike. Both do a good job. Most weather people on RU-vid are all identical lol

Same here. I don't live in a state that has tornadoes. I watch Ryan's channel because I have a lot of family and friends that live in Indiana, Tennessee and Illinois. I live in Southern Utah and usually the worst we get weather wise is from Monsoons.

@@63angel we get the occasional weaker tornado in VA, and hurricanes, sometimes. Everywhere has some weather that'll kill you somehow or another!

He is the best I used to watch Ryan Hall now it's Max EVERYTIME..He's the MAN!#MAXVELOCITY

His radar analysis is good but the chat section is horrific. After about 2 minutes I find myself just closing it.

He is really good. He will get a TV job easy. Once tornado season dies down though and he has time to be a littlle silly, he HAS to do a spoof of Key and Peele's Substitue Teacher, Every time he mispronounces a town name it makes me think of that..

Yes Max is good but his chat section I agree can be a bit unfriendly at times. I watch Evan Fryberger he is also good & chat OK.

@@Carolb66who cares about the chat if the information is spot on?

Very useful tools indeed.

Wow, thanks!

Agree. This channel is becoming the best . What kind of equipment are you using ? The dash cam? And the drone ?

yup

The weather community is worse than any other I’ve seen

@@SpAzZzZz_ How so?? Most of the folks in the weather community are very nice. There are several chasers that will stop what they are doing and conduct search and rescue. If that makes them terrible then you have an issue or two.

Our pleasure!

I agree!

Glad you think so!

Thanks for watching

​@@WxChasing Is that an orb in the video? Thank you for always doing such a great job on these storms. God be with you always 🙏🏼 😊

Cry about it

I agree. One guy was screaming so much it unnerved my dog and had to mute it. I want stunning footage, not someone nutting on themselves from an adrenaline rush.

Cry about it

You people complaining about chasers yelling during a chase have volume on your devices. lol good grief it’s not that big of a deal to turn the volume down. Chasing these monsters is intense at times and comes with high emotions, yelling is completely understandable imo, they aren’t watching the tornado from the safety of their homes. They are right there in front of these monsters with their lives very much in danger so it makes sense that there might be some yelling. Smh

​​@@Stephanie-hh2rd Thanks for sharing this, and I wanted to add that these storm chasers are also dealing with increasingly loud conditions on their end of this tragic journey as well. They are surrounded by other traffic, radios and communications in their vehicles with NWS reports etc, alarms of different kinds going off with notifications, torrential rains pelting their vehicles along with hail and debris, thunder so loud that it physically rocks the earth and everything with it, not to mention the roar of the tornadoes and debris that they're chasing at that moment. All the while, they are trying to communicate with the viewers and others in their vehicles. It's very common for people to speak louder and elevate their voice to meet or exceed the level of disruption or disturbance that they are hearing, making that the most logical reason for the yelling we often experience in storm chasing videos, aside from the adrenaline and incredibly dangerous conditions that they're in at these times. While some of you may find it frustrating, it's the smallest of prices to pay for the lifesaving information and work that these storm chasers are making available to all of us. I, for one, am extremely grateful, and am more than happy to adjust my volume buttons in order to view the videos I want to see. Thank you to all of the people who make these videos available to us, free of charge, with their crucial information.

Thanks. I’ve documented this many times with weak rotation. Question I have is what point does it actually become a tornado? This is the first time I’ve caught the whole process.

I was intrigued by that footage. I’ve only seen that once before when the water vapor rose out of some trees. That was also a “Dixie Alley” storm. Thanks OP for your quiet footage. I enjoyed the drone videos too. Really well done.

Unfortunately your right @ Hunter77567

Reed Timmer springs to mind. I wouldn't last a minute hunting twisters with him. If we were in the middle of the Arizona desert I would just walk away. He takes all the fun out of the experience. The problem is other chasers have adopted that ear-banging shouting because they think it adds to the drama. As if there isn't enough drama involved with tornadic events. It's just attention-seeking.

Thank you

Thank you Suzanne

Based on what a few of the vehicles looked like, I think they were either fellow chasers or officials. But, yeah, they were mostly what appeared to be "casual" drivers. While watching, I wondered if any of them had any idea what was going on.

Look at all those 5G towers.

@@BabsKaz is that what those were?

You must have not seen the windmill tornado from a few days ago.

Go watch Reed Timmers Iowa windmill footage from a couple days ago. It's WILD

​@@brokenbutworthy308 No thanks. I don't need to view a know-it-all psycho screaming on camera for 15 minutes or longer. Simple shots of the real deal without all the added-on yelling is all that is needed.

​@@NoChance797 If it's with Reed Timmer, then no no no. He's a yelling psycho, with the desire for views and popularity. I just want raw footage of the real deal.

Thank you for watching.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Wow, thank you.

Thanks for watching!

Thank you kindly!

Thank you.

Thank you for watching.

Yeah, you are legally responsible if your tree poses a danger to the neighbor's house.

Did your home insurance have to cover your neighbors home?

Thank you for watching and for the sub!

Many thanks!

Thank you

What's so poor about this town?

​@@GaryWoolard-ex6gjmother nature hates us. Look up the tornado on dec 10 2021

Thank you Anne Marie!!

Tbf it is not a supercell. It's just a storm cell. Supercells are a hundred-plus miles across. This might have been connected to the system creating a supercell but I think this particular tornado was produced from a discreet (individual ) storm. Large cumulus nimbus yes, but not a supercell. Just because a storm produces a tornado does not mean it is a supercell. It just means it has a better complement of ingredients needed to produce a more violent tornado.

@@Ominousheat Uhm. This was actually literally a supercell storm. It had absolute classic supercell structure to it. One of the most classical looking supercells i've seen this year on radar. It was a discreet supercell out in front of the line.

@@Equestrianista_ What's a storm cloud?

Thank you.

Thank you MsPatti!

Thank you!

Thank you for the support, ultimately it is the people supporting us that allow us to do this more frequently.

Thank you!

Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you!

Thanks for watching

Thank you for watching and the sub!

Thanks for the sub!

It really takes things up a level. I have quite a few on the channel from drone if you want to check them out.

Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you

Sorry to hear that

Thank you Angie. I wasnt sure the exact angle and haven’t had time to dig deeper.

Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you!

Severe thunderstorm potential peaks with the low-level jet that typically occurs in the evening. Nothing new.

Western ky most certainly has a trending "alley"

Thank you.

Reed is a good friend. He gets excited but it's genuine.

Glad you enjoyed it

My pleasure!

It's in the description, I'll add dates to the title as well.

Me to.

Tornadoes are common in Kentucky. You should do a better job paying attention to the weather.

@@Enjoyer.762 Yes they are! I live in KY as well. I hate when ppl say that. Just cuz one hasn't hit your holler, doesnt mean they don't occur...

Very common...and getting more so year by year

Kentucky gets an average of 21 tornados a year over a three month period.

Thank you too!

We work really hard to get in place. A lot of sacrifices are made and it's a terrible feeling when we miss a storm. When we are able to execute everything at a high level we certainly pass congrats around, we also get excited. We also realize that people are impacted and immediately try to cover that aspect of the story as well. The tornado videos are our passion but the aftermath is our job. The coverage of aftermath is also what drives so much aid to the communities. It's great to catch a tornado but we take great pride in the way we handle what happens immediately after a tornado. With that said, people that get excited and scream, it is a lot of adrenaline and passion coming out. It shouldn't be viewed any other way. Those same chasers are giving real time reports and notifications to those in the path that do save lives.

Thank you.

Thanks

Thanks, I was hoping it captured what we were seeing. Not perfect but it still came out good.
