I drove the entire route in 2021...I also saw the Twistex Memorial! I'm a bit of a weather buff as well, and I remember watching "Storm Chasers" on Discovery Channel.
Growing up in western Iowa have had a lot of experiences with tornadic weather & seen an F2 tornado first hand. Nothing but respect for the meteorologists that study and chase them. I’ve always been fascinated by the power and beauty of storms. I highly recommend viewing another excellent youtube channel - Pecos Hank if you’re interested in tornadoes.
@@GetmeouttahereErik I live in NW Indiana and I have not actually seen a tornado first hand in the 46 years I've been alive, although we've had a good amount of tornado warnings. Probably for the best since I live in a pretty densely populated area. I think I've watched some of Pecos Hank's videos before, as well as Reed Timmer. Really enjoying your take on Route 66 in these videos!
