@@Walrus498yeah. Like the Omaha tornado earlier this year. It was recently upgraded to a weak-end of an F4, but that monster had to have been a high-end F4 at least.
I ran into that debris by truck on I80.....road was slick from rain....Minden devastated...we lost one person but none of us will ever be the same....thanks for clip.....helps put what I saw together...thought it was multivittexed
The sirens that day in Minden went off three times before the tornado hit the town I’m a Minden resident that was displaced by the storm losing our house and cars
After having an internal debate, I decided to comment. Saying that it is just a rotating column of air is incredibly dismissive of something that can completely destroy neighborhoods, upend peoples lives, and take lives. To those who are impacted by them it is so much more.
True, but everything possesses this duality if you think about it. The sunlight with which we buy our existence at the cost of the entropic death of the universe, merely photons released as a result of fusion of hydrogen into helium, a gold ring being a measly sliver of an element formed in ultramarine supernovae, the breasts on a person merely adipose tissue and mammary glands. A bullet being a hunk of kinetically charged lead. It's all so simple yet all so consequential
Yeah it's not just a rotating column of air, they are a rotating column of air, low pressure, when they collect broken glass, trees, cars, boards, roofs, and thousands of various other debris, they are intense and deadly force of atmosphere. They can't be reasoned with or controlled much like a masked killer. Oh and the sound of all of it is rather unsettling.
Harlan is my hometown. I am 69 years old, and I don’t remember anything remotely as big as that ever hitting the area before. Kind of ironic that our team name is Cyclones, and there is one painted on the water tower by the high school.
Are these clips in chronological order? This is amazing footage of an evolving monster, and I felt like some of the later clips were the storm developing, or was it devolving? Lol. This is dangerous work. Be careful. And thank you!
@@stormchaserjameswilson when you say multi vortices does that mean multiple funnels? I’m a complete novice about these things. We have them in Australia but mostly they are in unpopulated regions.
@Vovo-zx4ql I'm in WA, and we've had some in residential areas. Bunbury has been hit a couple of times, and Serpentine, just south east of Perth. My brother lives there, and when we went to see him afterwards. Massive trees had been ripped up and thrown about. Serpentine is basically a village, but not one home was destroyed. They were unbelievably lucky.
Great video! This tornado 🌪️ was a monster 👿 going all the way from Minden to Harlan in many different forms-I hope you didn’t get your windshield busted when you tracked the storm ⛈️! Anyway, good job! 👍 🥰😀⚡️
I've never seen somethin with that big and low of a wall cloud + windfield. Not fluent in meteorological records but it coulda easily been an El Reno contender. Amazing footage
I’ve never looked at a video of a tornado and actually see how fast it’s actually moving. It’s like it had a mind of its on and it has somewhere to be..
You think that you have problems, than you see something like this, and you wish just to stay alive to face your problems, to have the luxury of still being alive to be able to face your problems.
Impressive footage. Regardless of the really impressive looking wedge shape, It's not too hard to see that this wasn't the most powerful tornado ever (just comparing with some other videos on YT), which allowed to film so relatively close clearly.
Yes it was only an EF3 though it had a better stronger wedge shape near Minden. Check out my Lincoln tornado video from the same day. I have EF5 Moore video too from 2013
When I see these tornado vids, I wonder what those people in those nearby houses are doing and thinking when these monsters of nature are so close to them.
I wish someone could show me a tornado (IRL) but I’m 11 so no one will take me cuz I’m too young but tornado alley is apparently moving to my area so yes and no😂
Tornado ally ain’t moving. Tornado ally is a geological area from what I know. However, the occurrence of tornados might become more common the more extreme weather seasons get.
Same here, i'm 14 and I have a growing interest in tornadoes & atmospheric phenomena, I have it on my bucket list and hopefully in the future I can afford to visit tornado alley to do some storm chasing
The police had blocked the road behind us there was no traffic coming through. Plus I doubt anybody was dumb enough to drive under the tornado except for us. 🤣
Isto não é a força natural da natureza, tem forças do mal, por trás desses grandes acontecimentos na terra, diz a bíblia aí da terra é do mar pois o diabo desceu até vós, cheio de grande cólera, temos que orar e vigiar, Jesus está voltando.

@@mickeytheredBut it is just a rotating column of air. That is exactly what it is, no more, no less. Acknowledging this simple physical truth, does not in any way diminish the suffering and tragedy of those affected by this meteorological phenomena. Mythologizing it into a force of evil, or anything more than the elemental factors that give rise to a tornado, does not help those affected. It does not help anyone.
You sound like a short tempered prick, the way you wrote that comment. You could go about it differently. Ask questions next time. Be a little more kind and respectful.
