Those twisters are powerful and look terrifying.
Parkersburg makes them look like a pencil
I'm the high priest required for reafirming the covenant of the sun God Yah. These things can get better when people get behind me to get the reafirming ceremony done. It's in your bibles for a reason. I put it there in a past life to make sure I had a copy when I needed it. You're all standing against me. So what's going to happen is you're going to experience greater and greater severities of desolation, caused by the sun. Let me know when you want to find out what it was like for the Israelites I led into the covenant long ago. You all absolutely need a miracle to stop the day of the Lord in this time. I can lead you to that miracle. Or, as in the days of Noah, my Heavenly father enthroned in the sun will initiate the wash cycle when your time's up to reafirm.
Yes
Awesome!😮😮😮
Remind you of the weapons of terror...
and the evil wind... !!!

You have my Prayers too from TAMPA BAY FLORIDA USA 🇺🇸🤗✝🛐✝
Send money not useless prayers
I live in an affected area, it was like the apocalypse, tornado after tornado, never seen an outbreak like this here.
Several years ago a tornado destroyed a town not far from where I live. Everyone was talking about the damage so I went to see it a week later. Video and pictures don’t show you what a tornado actually does it’s crazy seeing it for yourself.
That's how you got so many real estate profits though so it paid off 😂😂
I know.
I'd like to see it myself but tornadoes are rare in my state
Yes. It is. Family property was a narrow miss for the Parkersburg IA 2008 one. It lifted just east of New Hartford and skipped over us before dropping again by Dunkerton (about 20 miles).

1:30 That older home actually remained intact considering all the $500,000 newer homes that were absolutely obliterated.
A lot of plaster, a lot of lathe, and a LOT of nails.
And all those people now $500,000 richer thanks to insurance.
@@DLCoates1lol assuming they have tornado insurance. They do everything in their power to avoid paying out.
@@StevenHargis-sp1vm most insurances will cover “acts of god” and natural disasters depending on location. Where I’m at for example, earthquakes and tsunamis are covered, oddly enough volcanos are not even though I’m in the lahar zone of 2 volcanos. Anywho, a tornado would most definitely be considered a natural disaster and an act of god. And if the insurance company won’t pay, you can always sue for more for breach of contract or false advertising.
The Tornado doesnt pass each building with the same strength, it has its own path.
Maybe this building wasnt in the middle of its path ?
I am blown away (sorry for the pun!) at how things can be sitting on a shelf and just a few feet away total destruction!!!
Same
Yes it'll make your head spin thinking about it
happens in cars sometimes, too. a friend of mine got in an accident after a visit at my place and had to come back. forced off road by a semi and struck multiple times. every seat but hers was crushed. trunk liner (plastic tub thing) was launched into the canal swale. her purse on the floorboard gently tipped over and all her stuff was still in it.
it was the most unbelievable thing. also, that she walked away from that with only mild whiplash and an abrasion from the seatbelt.
Wow 80 tornados that's insane 😢
That's "also" NOT NATURAL..
🤔
The ALIENS FROM MARS have ARRIVED !!

0:12 watched it live. It looked beautiful & terrifying.
This is an insane outbreak. Currently staying in north Texas, hoping not to be affected by this.
Tornados terrify me. I live 2 hours east of Dallas and everything we get a tornado watch I cant sleep or get on with my day. Not used to this. Used to live in earthquake country. West coast
All you can do is be right/get right with God.
Omg same! In Dallas now but moved from Orange County a few years ago. I had a crippling fear of earthquakes and thought the move would help but now it’s tornado’s. Originally from houston though so figured no biggie at least they are not hurricanes but tornados, I just can’t.
@@kristinstrickland1038has nothing to do with tornado outbreaks
Same here. Alabama and Georgia tornados are scary. I left Florida because hurricanes were arriving stronger almost every year. I know how to prepare for a hurricane but not a tornado. It's crazy! Humans need to reduce greenhouse gases in Florida, before some islands in the Florida keys disappear in the water. This will be due to high sea levels caused by climate change. 😢
I live in Arizona. Worst we might get is a rattler dancing with a puma and javalinas yoddling in our yards. We only got 7 million folks here. Plenty of open space to build and move new companies here
Jesus please protect everyone during this season of severe weather and may you send comfort and healing to those who have been affected by tornadoes. Amen🙏🏾
Jesus is not American, amen !
I wonder what percentage of them believe in climate change………..
My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who's lost their homes 🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️
80 tornadoes wow
Dang
heartbreaking
How many countries give money to help these ppl rebuild?
How much tax dollars are going to help these people rebuild?
NONE
People sadly have not collectively waken up to the reat scam!
Not a single one.
How many countries do we give money to for natural disasters?
Probably Canada. Canada and the u.s. are top countries for giving away money
The money went to Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Israel 🇮🇱 .
Scary. Heart breaking. I'm sorry for the devastation you've endured.
When do we start building under ground and below the foundation with a parking lot on top ?
Some tornadoes are powerful and violent enough to rip up asphalt and concrete from highways, and also gouge out farmland and topsoil.
Then floods
A pretty good idea. Just build core-scapers... 😉🥳
What's stopping you? Who's "we"?
You are spot on. The notion to just 'rebuild' in the face of an increasingly dangerous climate is the definition of insanity. More people need to think like you and build underground.
I can't even imagine
I wonder what percentage of them believe in climate change………..
This may seem like a silly question, but isnt it time building codes were introduced that reduce a tornadoes ability to reduce a house to its foundations? Timber frame utter waste of time in Tornado Alley.
All of it should be built underground.
Sadly with these winds there is no way to stand up to them regardless of the building. I live in this area and basements are our only safe place.
Agreed, but then the housing would be less affordable & that would probably make people angry.
I was just thinking the same thing. My friends house in S.C. is Hurricane PROOF.
Trump will help them.😅
What is it with all of these comments about building houses from cement instead of wood? Do people really think that cement houses can stand up to the strongest tornadoes? The knowledge has been out there for decades and yet people always bring up wooden houses vs cement houses. 😓
yes they can,sister. You haven't lived in one ,so you don't know
Cement ? Concrete in english. Im not american btw.
@@fact-o-pedio4603 Actually... It depends. Concrete buildings can't survive a direct hit from an F5, and will still be likely to have any and all upper floors collapse during an F3/F4. The roof of a concrete building can be blown away at an F2.
Better than wood, nowhere near indestructible. Also incredibly expensive to build and maintain.
Tornado shelters made out of concrete have been hauled from the ground by tornados before
You might wanna look what they survive in actually rich countries with building codes.
Prayers for those people.
Amen
You can always go out and help. Prayers don't rebuild homes
Yay prayers, but Israel take our money, billions and billions please - America wake up.
@@JesusRodriguez-kd8es .....these Red states don't want any help from our "socialist" government.......
Because praying is easier and cheaper than practical help or money… and if your dumb god actually existed, those prayers should include a few questions about the thousands of “natural” disasters worldwide every year that he does nothing to prevent. But if a baby is found alive in rubble! Praise god! It’s a miracle! So incredibly dumb…

@Play4Vida true. That and there are a lot of storm chasers and tornado chasers who do this for a living, or as a hobby.

Just devastating. I’m so sorry for those people. Heartbreaking. Just heartbreaking.
Our government needs to give these poor people anything they need after giving away billions to foreign countries for war.
Nice suggestion but doubt that's gonna happen
Anthony I hear ya. But the cold hard truth is in fewer years than we can imagine the cumulative total of weather related damage (fires, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, ocean level rise, drought), is going to be more than the than the government can cover. Insurance companies are already bailing out. What politician is going to run on a platform of raising taxes to fund weather related losses. My heart goes out to the woman who doesn't know where she is going to go from here. The information is out there. If you live in an area that could be threatened by storm damage, get out now. Don't wait to be a victim.
Probably people who don't want the government to give anytime money. They'll have their hands out though. Typical
No, the govt only donates money if the reason is destruction. But if the reason is to help a life rebuild, they'll have an application a mile long and in triplicate before they'll donate a dime.
LOL they didnt give it to foreign countries, they gave it to american weapon makers. They give all the money to companies
Need more solid cement build homes ,not drywall, plywood just wood.
Come on you've got to be kidding yourself if you truly believe that there's anything other than getting righteous in this world will stand up against the forces of mother nature nevertheless against the power of God. Don't take my word for it. just take a look around of how man is treating God's world, planet and the less fortunate.
So once again I believe all of this is happening for a reason. Remember Exodus 8:21 - 31
More importantly, Jesus saves sinners! God bless you!
@@unknown.8841 get out of here religious fanatic
@@gregsimmons694ahh, to be small. I truly envy you.
cement won't save you. not even in a strong hurricane and tornadoes are more violent and higher wind speed.
Some of these hit about 5 miles from my house. I will say there was alot of warning and thankfully it was during the day!
So sorry to all you people. Cannot imagine going through that. We have cyclones in Queensland but I have not experienced anything to that degree of destruction. My heart goes out to you 🫂🫂🫂
Thank you. I have seen videos however of huge hail storms in Australia , at least tennis ball size.😲
@@geoffoakland yes we have had hailstorms like that and had damage to our roof. We have also had bad cyclones which has also done a lot of damage but we have been very fortunate to not been impacted like others. But the vision of those tornados and the damage they have done? I have no words 😪😪😪😪
Because we have building codes. Not one of those houses would have been legal in FNQ

The 1980s were much worse, hurricanes and tornadoes unheard of in my home state of north Carolina was devastated. Weather is seldom stagnant and changes with the whim's of nature.
This is NOT "NATUR"AL..🤔
It's called climate change my friend..
Hate to break it to you but the entire eastern seaboard of the United States has a long history with hurricanes and tornados.
Interesting. Is it linked to a more El Nino weather pattern? Now I have to go look things up. I know rising sea surface temperatures are a factor
Why on Google News, US News doesn’t mention these tornadoes at all?
Cuz no one cares about those areas
Sorry to see this. One correction - Minden isn't exactly a "city". It's a small town, pop 600 or so.
Prayers to all .
Hopefully people can put aside their differences and lend a hand to help their fellow Americans in a time of need like this! 💜🇺🇸
My dad lived in Kansas , Arkansas , Nebraska their family traveled turning harvest season said these states are the worst for tornados , many a time they had find ditches to keep from being killed , so this is not new tornados will never go away my dad said its was 1930s
Majority of all the tornadoes in the entire world are statistically in tornado alley of the USA. Seems like everywhere has some disaster issue...earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanoes erupting, flash flooding, or tornadoes...there isn't a totally safe place anywhere it is always an odds game of trade offs.
Bless you all and protect you from further harm.

"Its just weather, it happens all the time" - climate change deniers in 2024.
it's so fkkd up that extreme weather isn't even a term they use anymore. now it's just 'weather' again, like any of this is normal. so much is SO abnormal and yet we're told it's fine, it's all fine. i hope we get some adults in the white house come nov, and no one who argues about climate change not being a thing. for godssakes, boot the idiots out of the senate and congress too. we can argue how to handle a problem, not argue about reality.

Dear god that's terrifying. Eighty tornadoes in a day on a single continent has to be a record.
The record for most tornadoes in a single day was in April 27th 2011 where 216 confirmed tornadoes touched down, 80 isn't even close to the record.
Living Beast is what they are!!
Houses in Tornado Alley should be in the shape of a dome. To equal out the pressure change. You can build dome houses of concrete and make them look pretty neat outside and still fill them with modern conviences.
Prayers 🙏go out to all the families who are going through this tornado and weather.
Instead of giving billions to other countries, that money should be going to our own citizens.
it does. We send older arms and pay American companies to replenish our stockpile, so our stuff is always fresh.
Maybe you should be complaining about the corporate payouts of trillions.
Has anyone ever thought about building geodesic dome houses instead of square box houses? Maybe out of steel and cement instead of wood?
Tornados can damage steel and cement structures too. Depends on the strength and path of the storm.
@@happyfence6340 I mean, I'm not an engineer but steel re-enforced cement geodesic domes do a lot better in a tornado than tall wooden boxes. I'll take 20% of an area destroyed over 100% destruction any day.
Your talking about some homes that withstand strong winds and earthquakes.makes sense I agree with you.
Their dome shaped absolutely correct
The dome houses in Marco island/ cape Romano were absolutely devastated by hurricane Andrew in 1979 and are still abandoned to this day. Andrew had peak wind speeds of 165 mph which would be roughly the equivalent of a high end EF3 nearing EF4. Im pretty sure 2 of the original dome houses were destroyed in Andrew, and although most of the structures remained "intact" the insides of them were completely destroyed.
There is no guarantee that a dome house will protect you especially since tornadoes tend to have the tendency to completely annihilate anything that lies in their direct path.
I’m so sorry 😢.
Wow.! Hope everyone get 2 safely ❤❤❤❤

Cool, I can't even afford a house.
Everyone said if we don’t do anything about climate. This was going to happen. That’s why we keep having insane hurricanes and now tornadoes and droughts
Some world famous climate change predictions that never happened:
“We don’t have 12 years to save the climate. We have 14 months,” the now-defunct ThinkProgress predicted 43 months ago.
Former French prime minister Laurent Fabius warned 3,239 days ago that the international community had only “500 days to avoid climate chaos.”
Earlier, in 2009, Gordon Brown, the U.K.’s prime minister at the time, said we had “fewer than fifty days to save our planet from catastrophe.”
Also in 2009, former vice president Al Gore declared that “there is a 75% chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during some of the summer months, could be completely ice-free within the next five to seven years.”
In 2013, mid-melt, the Guardian ran the following headline: “US Navy predicts summer ice-free Arctic by 2016.”
The ice is still there.
“NASA Scientist: We’re Toast,” reads the headline of an Associated Press report from 2008.
In 2007, the IPCC predicted the Himalayan glaciers would disappear by 2035. The U.N.’s chief climate science body retracted the claim in 2010, explaining the prediction wasn’t based on any peer-reviewed data, but on a media interview with a scientist conducted in 1999.
In 2006, Gore claimed that unless world leaders took “drastic measures” to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions, Earth would surpass the “point of no return” in ten years - a “true planetary emergency,” he called it.
The year 2016 came and went, and now we’re being told the early 2030s are the real point of no return.
The Guardian, citing a “secret report,” warned in 2004 that “major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas as Britain is plunged into a ‘Siberian’ climate by 2020.”
The year 2022 was the U.K.’s warmest since they started keeping records in 1884. The heat was, of course, blamed on climate change.
“U.N. Predicts Disaster If Global Warming Not Checked,” the AP reported in 1989.
The report’s opening line reads, “senior U.N. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off the face of the Earth by rising sea levels if the global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000.”
Like Charlie Brown and the football, some folks (too many actually) continue to believe this doomsday nonsense no matter how many times they are proven wrong. I guess it is true that it is easier to fool people than convince them that they have been fooled.
How many billions or trillions in taxes is it going to change 1°. How is anything that they are proposing to change the climate actually going to succeed. We will always adapt that's what we have always done.
@@pmo8135 To be honest, there would have to be a massive changes. Changes that would be difficult to convince the public and especially the greedy. Each country needs to do their part.
plus the floods and wildfires. it's a shitshow out here.
@@lurklingX yes and the heat in some places is insane
