  • The Yuma Tornado is historic, but it wasn't at first. Here's the whole story, from close up on the ground to days after the assessment. Reed's footage shows the amazing behavior of the tornado, and some clues after the fact help to fill out the investigation. What do you think happened at Yuma on August 8, 2023?
    Thank you to the amazing Monk Family for taking the time to talk to us, and for being awesome people!

    Ah. This made me emotional. I thank God for you, Reed, and thank God the parents were watching this stream & able to warn their kids. It’s very important what storm chasers do. Anyone brand new or looking to get into storm chasing needs to understand the importance of storm chasing. Thank you, Reed! God bless you & the family you helped with your stream! Never stop chasing.

      'Could be', 'may be'. But it is not key. Key to what? Plus that spinning top comparative is way wrong. A spinning top in free space has a declining speed and moves about due to gravity and it's own equilibrium due to it's spin. Whilst a tornado is the result of active forces acting upon it. Therefore it is not necessarily decreasing speed. 'Motion like a spinning top. What were you trying to say. That some how you have discovered one of the most important cyclonic deductions of the decade? LOL Are you kidding? Ask a average intelligent High School graduate what the motion of a tornado is like and he may tell you it is primarirly rotational. Or spinning. That is why they were named Tor-nado. tor as in turning. Cyclonic as in circular. So the discovery that it is going round and round is not as new as some young people may have imagined. It is common knowledge. has been for milenias. Also-My belief is 'Storm Chasers' are not important. People are important but not storm chasers or people who want to put their lives at risk chasing the most dangerouse activities when all the work is generally all ready done by metrological Information centers. Storm Chasers are not first responders but secondary as they react to secondary intel from more primary sources.

      I’m like you!! Or, I was. I feared tornadoes bad when I was young, after seeing a neighborhood that got wiped out in my neck of the woods when I was about 8-9 years old. Then in 1974.. senior in high school( geez, just told me age!!🙄😂) that devastating day of the tornado break out my town along with so many others was hit terribly. My dad picked me up from school, then my mom from work. On the way home, an F4 barely missed us, trees and power lines falling all around us. A big trailer park was completely destroyed just a few hundred yards from us, killing anyone who was home. I seen that monster, and I will never forget, but it put so much fear in me. The Bible says 1Timothy 1:7 God has not given us a spirit of fear but of a sound mind. It also talks a lot about His people die from lack of knowledge. I decided to combat my fear by learning all I could about these storms, which, like you said, both terrify and fascinate us!! Once I learned all about them, and could watch and read radar myself, and become aware if the conditions around me was conducive for a tornado. My fear subsided with this knowledge. When, in 2016, my home was destroyed by a high end EF3, I had learned also in where my safety lay. In God’s protection, and in knowing what to expect. God bless you, and stay safe!!🙏🙏🙏❣️❣️

    Wowza.... I didn't realize how rare of an event this was! We were also on this storm, chasing it ourselves, but given that this was our VERY first tornado, we played it safe and stayed a good few miles away from it... now I realize that perhaps that was a wiser call than I thought... being as inexperienced as we were (It was only our 8th chase ever), we could've gotten into trouble had we been a lot closer and hadn't realized what it was doing! Sure we missed out on some epic footage, but I KNEW Reed was on this thing, and I KNEW other, more experienced chasers would be a lot closer, so I wasn't as worried about missing out. We still saw it in wedge form as it first developed, and then later as we drove away on one of our escape routes, its more stovepipe shape, and lastly, the outstanding mothership structure of the overall storm, so I'd still call that a great success, as safety trumps everything when we're still learning!

To know when to get out of dodge and trust your instinct is what keeps you and who's with you safe when other storm chasers have lost their lives! This is why when you're on air, people need to watch your streaming in the location you're in! We need storm chasers on the ground because raders don't always see them!

    We were on this storm. The mesoclyone on this storm cycled a few times before it actually dropped a tornado. Even before dropping the nado the movement of the mesocyclone was a bit erratic. Wobbling east or west quite dramatically at times. Very strange storm.
    I don't know if this would count as an additional form but I caught a rope out of a tornado on the yuma storm with my drone time lapse. At the time I thought it was a second tornado but in retrospect its prolly the end life of the same tornado.

      @keenansampey3415 there’s something fishy going on that started years ago. Too many anomalies most recently around the fires… California, Canada, and now Maui. And this. Most ppl aren’t aware that in the days leading up to 9/11 there was a major hurricane off the Atlantic coast & NYC was in its direct path. Yet nobody in the MSM was reporting it let alone warning New Yorkers to prepare. And then what was even stranger, about a day before it was to make landfall, the hurricane made an unexpected sharp 45° turn to the north. When I learned of this years later I didn’t believe it so I pulled up archived weather maps and there it was tracking towards NYC and making that big turn. I would have thought it a fantastic coincidence but with the media blackout I can’t help but be very suspicious.

      That media-censored tornado was one half of an atmospheric electrostatic dipole. The other pole being the front moving in from the east at the same time. A sky-based circuit, if you will, used to charge the electromagnetic interference zone (phase conjugated longitudinal wavepairs from two or more frequency emitters) that were used to molecularly disassociate the Twins.

It's like he's been doing it 80yrs only that good on day 1 since he was fresh out of college. Just glad he's out there doing this, its so great.

    It’s been very active here this season. Didn’t get to see the tornado that hit east of us last month because we couldn’t get outside due to the hail. I’ve never seen hail like we had that day…I’ve been here a long time and imho this season was unprecedented. So much moisture…it rained most of the summer. Looking forward to hopefully some major blizzard action this winter!

    Definitely a strange path for sure. I'm so thankful people like Reed exist! I am curious as to why this one is stranger than the path of the grand island twisters in 1980, probably tornado number 1, which made around 7 loops. That was an insane path like never seen before or since. I'm disappointed it wasn't mentioned. Great video though, keep up the good work!

    • @WrittenFolklore
      @WrittenFolklore 9 місяців тому +7

      Yea the two looping tornadoes mentioned are not the only two loopers. Pretty disappointed in the misinfo.
      Edit: Should add that the Grand Island tornadoes aren't the only other loopers. The Elie, Manitoba F5 also looped twice, and I have no doubt there are other cases.
      Not saying it isn't rare. But it does happen, especially with slow moving storms.

    The 2007 Elie, Manitoba, Canada tornado also had a very erratic path, with sharp turns and several loops. It was noted for it's "peculiar slow forward speed". So maybe you're onto something here with connecting storm speed with funky paths.

    Reed I would LOVE to take you up on that Storm chase invite whenever you find yourself in west texas again!! LOL.....this was a cool video because I just recently added you on youtube this year. I used to watch the TV show storm chasers and loved it. This season, we had a close call with a tornado that went thru Matador, and then came south towards us in the dark. It went to our east by about 50 miles. Two days later we drove over to matador to witness the damage and aftermath first hand. Its incredible what a tornado can do, and thats what led me to finding your channel and getting back to watching your footage/chases. Great stuff that I also believe saves lives. Speaking of lives, I think your decision to move when that storm looped probably saved your life....LOL.

    Good eye, good chase management, good call. (Great sticking it to the NWS too!)
    I'm a meteorologist that has seen every episode of Storm Chasers... so that's where the 'attitude' above came from. For me, the most horrific part of that cast was Professor Can't Chase or Forecast At All.
    You did well, mostly. You had the drive, and most importantly, the gut instinct. As you of all people know... this is science and art and SWAG (Scientific Wild-Ass Guess, for the uninitiated).
    You did very well on this, and regained my respect, not that that matters.
    Job well done! 👍
