CHICAGO O'HARE TORNADO WARNING | EVERYBODY IN SHELTER, BUT ME!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 лип 2023
- The harrowing and cinematic sight of a natural disaster forming over one of the city's most recognized destinations likely seemed improbable to many, though Wednesday's storms proved that it's only a myth that tornadoes cannot impact large cities.
Here at Chicago O'Hare International Airport, a tornado watch issued by the National Weather Service played out before a tornado warning was issued.
More than 800 flights were delayed, 300 canceled at Chicago airports due to weather.
Everyone was sheltered in place, but me!
I captured the moment O'Hare Airport stood still at one of the busiest airports in the world!
There were tens of thousands of people stuck on planes, and it was required that aircraft not move
during the event. It's easier to assess the situation by the ATC in an already busy Control Tower.
The tornado in the video was an EF-0 on the southern part of Des Plaines near Rosemont.
It was first thought it was in Rosemont by media sources.
That EF-0 tornado traveled from Itasca to O'Hare Airport and from O'Hare Airport to the southern side of Des Plaines.
This video was recorded on Wednesday, July 12, 2023!

I think I would have had a major anxiety attack, I'm terrified of tornadoes, and being stuck on the tarmac, knowing that there were active tornadoes. I'm so glad no one was injured.
There were some planes that were already departed from the terminal and taxiing to the runway before they decided to turn around and head back to the terminal to unload all the passengers to seek shelter underground, including the pilots before everything came to a stand still.
@@chicagoflights That's good to know that they were able to get back to the gates and get to safety.
If I were the pilot I’d fly the plane away from the tornado as soon as possible
I was just there, that was literally my first tornado😭😭😭, but im ok tho
Live in tornado alley for awhile, you’ll be standing on your porch when the sirens go off just like everybody.
That was insane! I was watching Andy Hill and the MDW stream at the same time. The disaster this storm caused is unreal
Andy Hill is the man
Same here
The National Weather Service confirmed an EF-0 tornado traveled from Itasca to O'Hare Airport, an EF-0 from O'Hare Airport to the southeast side of Des Plaines just blocks away from Rosemont, It was first thought the tornado in the video was in Rosemont by media sources.
I have been in Chicago all my life and over the last few years tornadoes are inching closer to the city of Chicago, I wouldn’t be surprised seeing one rip through the actual city one day.
@@iwouldliketoorderanumber1b79 What a disaster that would be! EF-4 OR 5 in Chicago! God I hope not!!
Tornadoes can and do occur anywhere that strong thunderstorms can develop. This includes over big cities such as Chicago. In mountainous areas. And even in places that do not normally see tornadoes. Such as the northeastern part of the country.
Yup!
They get closer and closer to Chicago each year.
@@iwouldliketoorderanumber1b79 here is two places you would nit think about a ef1/2 hit flagstaff az in 98maybe99 and one in salt lake city Utah I think it was a ef1
@@iwouldliketoorderanumber1b79 It's not necessarily that they get closer each year, it's just that downtown Chicago hasn't taken a direct hit, yet. (knock on wood)
I'm guessing it's just a matter of time before downtown Chicago, Kansas City, St. Louis, Milwaukee, Indianapolis, etc. sees a major F3 or higher.
@@toddcunningham3213 any new skyscraper going forward needs to be tornado proof.
Thanks for the great show!!! I live in Kenosha, WI, so close by. Love your work!
A lot of love to you and your family!! Born and raised in Chicago, and I love to share Chicago O'Hare to you.! I know Bratstop! Great place to visit. My pop loved that place! Many cheese flavors to choose from, etc. When I hear Kenosha, Wi, that's the first thing that pops into my mind.
I was in Evanston Illinois you even heard sirens going off. That crazy it hit the airport. Lucky no one got hurt.
Crazy it touched down so close to ORD. I saw some damage near the Allstate Arena where it passed by.
There was a EF-O tornado at O'hare confirmed by the National Weather Service. I believe it was on the far northside of the airport that traveled to the southern part of Des Plaines near Rosemont.
Yes I saw the storm report. Passed right by the Allstate Arena.
Prayers going up for everyone in the Chicago area and the surrounding area, too! Your brave being out there taping this tornado 🌪️!
They get a lot of shooter and murders so that city 🌆 should be able to handle a tornado.
@@cs77smith67 I hear that! My Oldest nephew has a uncle who lives there, I just hope he was okay. Of course we have idiots like that in our state, too! They get too big for their britches and think they’re above the law!
Insane that you happened to be streaming that day! We ended up right next to you guys on the hill after we were done chasing the storms!
Crazy day! I remember seeing someone by us that day. Must have been you. I'm glad we all were safe because it could've been ugly.
I think the most surreal thing is the airfield looking like a ghost town with all the planes stopped in place.
Yeah, that really was something! Surreal for sure! That massive storm cloud with an EF-0 tornado under it just made it much more surreal.
Oh my, seeing all the planes stopped, in O’hare!😶
Way to capture that moment! Awesome work! Glad you all are safe as well!
I live in Chicago and let me tell you that day after the tornado the skies looked so scary I was terrified something I never seen before people was out taking pictures because it was so amazingly scary 😂
Great videos of this!
I'm just in awe of that towering classic anvil thunderhead which was possibly a supercell thunderstorm.
Yeah, that was a tall one!
Had of been 50,000- 70,000 feet tall.
Omg I seen that on weather channel I’m glad you guys are safe
That could've turned ugly real fast! Good thing the EF-0 dissipated.
Wow I just looked up Rosemont IL on the map and it's right on the eastern edge of the Chicago O'Hare Airport! I was last there in 2000. I live in Oklahoma, our tornado season is over now but this video reminded me of it and even gave me goosebumps. I hope everyone is safe.
Was thinking of you as you were streaming! Thanks for the coverage and glad you're okay!
All is good! Thank you! Nobody got hurt, and I was able to capture some of the scenes as it happened!
lol hey cheryl! lol was watching this clip just now.. was reading the posts and clicking "LIKE" on them then looked at ur name lol were u watching him stream this LIVE? that must have been incredible!!
@@goincrabbin6756 Hi! Yes that was a scary thing! 😨 Must have been 11 tornadoes that evening!
We are lucky these multi vortex tornados didn't cause a bigger one. Usually those can turn into devastating ones and an F5 would have cause numerous deaths the way this city handled this storm.
What a disaster that would be! The F5 flattens everything in its path.
@@chicagoflightsreally like even the skyscrapers?
Would be an EF-5 but yes, pretty devastating
@@cs77smith67not sky scrapers, because since they’re made out of steel they’ll probably withstand it.. however the windows would shatter, because the windows are not made of steel
@@cs77smith67an EF 2 hit downtown ATLANTA in 2008 and I watched it happen. The skyscrapers were all damaged and had windows blown out but they weren’t structurally compromised in any way. They are built to withstand earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, all of it.
What a beautiful sky...amazing, high quality footage
You'll love this then.
The link below is from the livestream as that massive storm cloud is over downtown Chicago. Scroll through the video, and you'll see some cool shots!

@@chicagoflights excellent thanks for sharing... I'll be there two weeks from today.... Been working Lollapalooza every year since 2016... And then I come back in October for the marathon lol
@@2345allthebest Very cool! I'll be at the marathon rooting everyone on and capturing some video!👍
great footage
That looked insane thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
We had a tornado strike near Bradley Airport. It practically destroyed the air museum. That was back in 1979. It was once believed tornados never happened in New England. They can happen anywhere.
Wow! To see everything frozen and waiting.... hoping all is okay. Did you get anything recorded on when the ATC made the announcement on stopping everything?
Great coverage & thank you for this. Good to hear all went okay. Be safe.
I stayed at a hotel in Rosemont in May, not realizing that just a few weeks later, it would be in the path of a tornado. Thank God it was not worse.
The o’hare tornado really said “Let it die, let it die, let it shrivel up and die!”
Excellent and brave work that night. Really well done video. I remember that night well and wondered what was going on 5 miles,away from me at KORD. I think they might've abandoned the tower for a short time that night after all aircraft were stopped in place.
Why are people still on the planes ✈️ absolutely terrified
I was on the highway at the Randall road exit when the tornado hit Elgin I think. Trucking is so much fun 😆
I was at work when it was raining back and forth that day. I’m like whoa. That’s rotation 😳
hehehehe I was at O'hare the day after that... didnt learn about the tornado till yesterday... that was a pleasant realization...
I have been in over 40 tornadoes in my trucking career and that one was a off one but glad it didn't get bigger
Those poor passengers on the planes. I would have been scared to death!
Those storm clouds look ominous, at the beginning
What siren brand was that?
Crazy, i just flew out of there a couple ago. Glad i didnt wait lol
Lol I’m terrified of tornadoes but I feel like it would be relatively safe in an airplane with how sturdy they are on the tarmac. Great work on the video!!
Awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Man this is real I was on the outer rim of a hurricane in Barbados West Indies the noise was like a jet plane revving up
Man I can only imagine what the passengers in those planes were thinking at that moment.
How far in advance were aircraft re routed!?
Dude the whole airport looks so scary
Welcome to life at Denver International Airport during the summertime. DIA always get Tornado warnings, and tons of hail. DIA is far enough east of Denver and has been a known hotspot.
What sort of sense does it make to freeze planes in place, full of passengers, turning them into helpless targets, when there is plenty of time to get even a few of them out of harm's way?
That's close to where we go to Rivers Casino! Man, am I glad to not go there after hearing those sirens go off. Not to mention, my mom was recovering from her vertigo.
Nice clickbait of a thumbnail. *chuckles in Texan
You Texans get those big EF-4 and 5s like the one in the thumbnail . I hear that on the news once in a while.
The way it said O’Hare had me rolling on the floor remind me of lorax
Not unusual for tornadoes to hit Chicago back in the fifties a ef4 hit
Correct. They've had several F4s and EF4s over the years. In 1990, an F5 ripped through Plainfield and Joliet.
My left ear enjoyed this.
I was on an AA jet. We just landed when the emergency weather alert went off on everybody's phone. It was scary.
Yeah, I bet! I'm glad your safe!
I remember sitting in my basement looking at the exact news broadcast shown on here on that very day
Amazing... Where were you filming this from?
I was on the west side of the airport!
Wow! Had it come for the airport, there just would have been no away to planes back to the gate to unload. To be on board with full fuel tanks and being tossed around the tarmac! ‘Thank you, Lord....’
How long O'hare was in lock down from this storm?
Approx. 2 hours!
@@chicagoflights I'm assuming the ATC evacuated the tower? (I know this was a stupid question)
I was at O’ Hare at that very time on a layover…
In a nutshell, what was the scene like? People reactions etc
We were boarding when the warning was issued. I was looking out the window but didn’t see the funnel, which means it may have been right over me. The guy boarding us was told by another worker that they had been told to un-board the plane because we were under a tornado warning. He said “I mean everybody’s on board already.” She repeated that it was a command from their superiors, he pretty much said it wasn’t a big deal and would be over soon. That was the last I heard of the conversation. In about 2 minutes the pilot announced we had to un-board.
When we got back out into the airport, the rain, wind, and lightning were quite stirred-up, but I don’t think anyone realized how close it was and most of us were just standing there waiting it out, though we were told to get away from the windows and make our way to the bathrooms. I had found some “Employee-only stairs I was going to go down and under if the building started shaking, or the tornado came into view, or the roof came off, or someone spontaneously combusted, etc.
@jordanmicahcook
Thanks for sharing the frightening chain of events. Not being able to see the threat from inside the airport for most people must have made it much more frightening.
Their were many tornadogenesis over the airport that I've seen. One had contact with the ground and was an EF-0. There wasn't a funnel on the ground, so I couldn't distinquish which tornadogenesis became a tornado while it was at the airport. Good thing it didn't become a well established one!
Pull the LiveATC recording. A 747 on the north side said the flags next to them were pointing up and that the tornado went right over them. These other pilots were discussing if they go rogue to get out of the way if a tornado is on the ground haha.
Looks like Chicago O'Hare International Airport dodged a bullet
Did you survive
I was there when a tornado touched down in th suburbs of Zion in 2013
I was at midway, I was so scared and shaking alot.
I’d be exitied because when I grow up I wanna be a storm chaser and I don’t have a fear of monster tornados or tornados not even category 5 hurricanes
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Not native to the Midwest huh? You'll get used to it. I love it when it drops from 88 degrees to near freezing in the summer. Takes the edge off of heat waves. Have a nice day! 🇺🇸😉
Was there turbulence that day
That was a tornado? I'd doubt it could harm a chicken. Probably an EF0.
I would rather be in a flashflood than in a tornado
I also live in chicago in cook county but i didnt see shit it only got very dark for 20 minutes & the sirens started blaring & then literally after that it was just sunshine & rainbows lol
I have been removed from this place just 4 years ago and I kid you
not, I have a spiritual feeling that God will someday put a hurting on this Chaotic City.
Can't belive tornadoes love Illinois more counties? This is first time? It was a small one?
I think Illinois might be the new tornado alley the way it's been. It was a EF-0 tornado in this video. Small one unlike an EF-5 in Plainfield back in 1990. There was an EF-1 on the far northside of Chicago several years ago. That one created a path of destruction that took down alot of massive trees. I think some might of been some oak and maple trees that stood there before our time.
@@chicagoflightsI wonder how Chicago’s skyscrapers would handle a tornado ripping through downtown.
@@iwouldliketoorderanumber1b79 Definitely wouldn't look good with all those glass windows!
We had just landed and in the car!
I was on a plane when this was going on
Did airplanes take off in that weather towards the wind or were flights grounded🤔🤔
The stormed moved east away from Chicago! Here's the link to the video when flights resumed approx. 2 hrs after being grounded!
You can see the storm in background!
ua-cam.com/users/livekpaj-UlaRg0?feature=share
All the airplanes looked pretty grounded to me. They were all loaded with passengers. Frankly I would have preferred being in the building...
@@istankimjong-unbutcantstan3398 Yeah, they were grounded for approx. 2hrs.before flights resumed.
why is the city named O'HARE it looks like from the movie Called the lorax
SPIRIT 69 WERE YA GOIN
Isn’t this supposed to be about planes, not tornados? It says in your channel (ChicagoFlights)
The storm almsot hit my house but then went to the next village instead, i was lucky
my dad was there.
Can you imagine if something like that were to happen..... fortunately it was a lucky day.
Yes, for sure! It definitely could've been a brutal one! Mother Nature has no mercy!
@@chicagoflights Maybe she is getting out her belt or paddle to dole out some spankings.
Did it show the dead man walking vorticies
I took shots of this coming back from Indiana.
How common is this? 😮
We seldom see a tornado in Chicago city limits. It has happened like the one in Rogers Park several years ago. That one was an EF-1. You get some EF-0 and EF-1 every year or so in the far suburbs of Chicago.
When was this?
Wednesday, July 12. 2023
@@chicagoflights I was asking because my Step Great Uncle’s live down there. I live in Wisconsin.
Bro these tornadoes just really hate O’hare
There was circulation on the north side of the airport right by the hangers. Unfortunately I didn't capture that!
Oh at least you got some footage
I was there yesterday(Friday) doing a livestream. When I was finished and packing my gear, tornado sirens went off again. I saw an approaching storm headed for O'Hare. First thing on my mind was Not Again!
Sirens went off again on Friday? Oh my! Thanks for this video. Brings back home to me. Nice job on Friday.
What really bothers me about this situation is that tower didn't evacuate & planes were out on the taxiways. A tornado could easily cause some serious injuries to people still aboard planes!!
Yeah, I definitely wouldn't want to be stuck on a plane during a tornado warning!
@@chicagoflightshello 👋 was anyone killed or seriously injured during the 2023 tornado 🌪 I'm just wondering 🤔 💭 OK 👍 👌 🙆♂️
@@Justin-lb5jtno, it was ef-0 so damage wasn’t enough to injure anyone

ummmm there it is right there .. WHERE???
HARP!🤔
Nobody loves Brant Miller more than Brant Miller
😃 yeAaaaa
I guess I'm blind, all I saw was a moving cloud, no tornados
They definitely have outdone themselves on the mannequin challenge.
Syrix the small ERLC roblox gaming youtuber warned his community about this.
He said he knows a few people in his community live in Chicago so he sent a warning.
The end is near!!
No, Mother Nature is just replenishing all the grass, plants, and trees from the long drought the Chicago area was experiencing.

Run and cry!
all the airplanes taxying just staying there. are there people in them?
Yes, full of passengers. They were all taxiing to take off before the airport came to a halt.
i thought they evacuated all of them and they left them there since all lights were off
