No it's not.. clearly you weren't watching the Livestream, and if you were, you weren't paying attention to the radar and locations. The tornado that Brett was chasing (this tornado) happened near Minden, Iowa. The tornado you are thinking of took place before this one on a different cell northwest of the cell that produced this one.
I expected to see the SUV in front just get elevated off the road and into the twister and start spinning around. It's amazing to see it, then to see the line of cars that keep driving right to it. I'd be going in the opposite direction as fast as I could. LOL
@@deathbloom27 Yeah I've seen the El Reno one, another monster, and today there was another huge wedge twister in Knox City, Texas. Tomorrow is an outbreak threat for central and eastern Missouri. They claim today's tornadic weather that took place out west and southwest of here, and usually weakins before it gets to central and eastern Missouri, will still be as dangerous as it was today. So tomorrow will be eyes to the skies and stay hopeful that the system breaks down. Best of luck to everyone, fingers crossed. 🤞

@@spiralrose jarrel was brutal the power and near lack of movement seemed sinister, deliberate, and precise. Along with causing 27 deaths and zero injuries and the reaper photo. It wasn’t this wide and less than half the width of El Reno though
Driving as close to that tornado as he did. Got balls and courage. Not at all stupid. I think people who chase tornados are just doing what they love to do. Great footage.
God bless and THANK YOU to the meteorologists who put themselves in danger and report on these storms, often arriving even BEFORE the "first" responders and emergency personnel arrive. Thank you for your selfless service.
How young are you that you have never seen one of these before. These happen every few years since the beginning of time, and they are an awesome spectacular display of nature's power.
Amazing job by Ryan Hall, all the storm chasers, and the SPC, several tornado emergencies that were properly warned and covered. Countless lives saved.
I always thought it was the thunder of God when watching twister movie but turn out they been saying the finger of God but still I understand that reference
@MVP123 A weather caster should be like Gary England in a tornado or Saya Hiyama in an earthquake. Not a gawker. People's lives depend on particular information, not sensationalism
We lived through the F5 in OKC 2013, iit was just a wall it was so big. I've always lived in tornado alley but it still amazes me the intensity of those storms.
Scary Day for Iowa and Nebraska! Less than 30 miles from me. (In Iowa) Over 8 Tornados on the ground at the same time. (Different areas of the state.) So devastating. Round 2 tomorrow! The news and weather are already forecasting another STRONG storm in this same line tomorrow. 😢 I am not ready for this again.
Size is irrelevant, only damage is considered in the rating. El reno 2013 was only an ef3 due to damage, and another 2 mi wide tornado in june 2008 was only a ef2
Five bucks says the NWS will only rate this monster an EF-2 or 3. Meanwhile I was reading a radar windspeed of 180+mph, and the ground level wind speeds are typically 30-40mph faster than that given how far away the radar was.
You might find it interesting to know most large tornadoes of the past were considered to have much more violent wind speeds. Looking at the old Fujita scale, a F3 tornado had winds of 158 to 206mph. Any storm with damage caused by winds over 200mph today would get an EF5 rating.
@@jcamp788 yea I heard about that a while ago it’s crazy to think that this can show how powerful these f5’s were if their f-5 wind speed is 261 if I’m not mistaken. There could’ve been so many f5 tornadoes that could be a candidate for worlds most powerful wind speeds
If you have a basement or a shelter get in it. If not, go to the most centralized location in your house (away from windows, preferably on the bottom floor)
We had a sketchy day in eastern Iowa early this week. Right overhead the clouds were black, low and moving in all different directions. Thankfully they moved through without incident, but was scary to see how easily a tornado could have developed.
Lord Jesus have mercy on the people please protect them with the power of God I rebuke the storm let it come down praying for all the blood of Jesus for protection say Psalm 91:9,10 Amen 🛡️🩸🙏✝️
People driving while the tornado is going is absolutely dangerous. The base of that thing is huge. I wouldnt want to get any closer but, that SUV that assumes driving towards it at fast speeds seems as if it wants to get home as possible.
