    Correction Regarding the Birmingham Stock Footage:
    That's Birmingham in the United Kingdom. I couldn't find any stock footage of Birmingham in the United States. I searched it up on Pixabay, I got that and it said NOTHING Regarding it being in England. An error yes, but a small one at that since I couldn't find any stock footage of Birmingham proper.

      Hey I know you normally do videos if big events such has hurricanes and tornadoes, but there are two events that occurred in Dallas county ranging from extreme drought to a 1-in-1,000 year flood. Both stories would be great for a small video. Just search up Balch Springs fire and Dallas flooding 2022. I would like to know more of what caused those events

    This is the tornado that scarred me for life. I was 8. My sister was 3. The lighting I remember most. It was non stop. So bad my parents had to make a choice to wait till the tornado was on top of us, to run to the shelter or risk being struck by lightning. To this day, I've never seen lightning as bad as that. We had to wait until it got quiet and run. Barely made it. The second we got in there and my dad shut the door, it flung back open. I'm 31 now and absolutely terrified of even heavy rain and wind. Any sound that doesn't sound normal to me during a storm, I'll have major panic attack to the point of vomiting. Idk why but to this day I'm terrified and I know about weather. It's what got me into wanting to know all I can about tornados, when they occur, what causes them, etc etc.

    Thanks for covering this storm; it seems like this one gets overlooked a lot. Like you said, 1998 was a busy year for tornadoes, and on a list of significant tornadoes, it also kinda gets lost between the Jarrell and '99 Moore tornadoes. Both of those have many documentaries made about them; they were exceptionally brutal storms of course, but this one was as well. I think this is probably due to there being no video of it, nothing to sort of "stay" with the viewer; it didn't make the compilation and documentary films those of us who grew up in the '90s remember watching on TV. I think that'll be different in the future; there's probably only one lightning-lit picture of the also-nocturnal Western Kentucky tornado of 2021, but I don't think anyone's going to forget that one anytime soon.
    I remember the March 20, 1998 event well; while no storm came closer than an hour to me in eastern NC, it was on the news all day, it seemed. Even if someone wasn't an 11-year old weather geek like me, they were aware of what had happened in Stoneville, if they had the news on. That storm struck Stoneville in mid-afternoon, so there was plenty of daylight left for the TV crews to get pictures and broadcast them.

    Was living in Tuscaloosa & was departing home to attend a Bama baseball game when the first tornado warning was issued for Tuscaloosa County. No polygon warnings then, so the entire county was placed under the warning. Never made it out of the neighborhood for the game.

    I definitely remember this night. We had another family over for dinner this night having a good time. I grew up in a suburb south of Downtown. The weather starts to get bad and we are paying attention to the news. My dad and my friends dad realize its going north of town. They decided to take us up to the top of Red Mountain to see if we can see it. I remember getting there standing over looking downtown Birmingham and then lightning flashes and we see this HUGE lowering on the north side of the city. It was absolutely terrifying but at the same time riveting. We stood there for a good 20+ mins watching it move across the north side of Jefferson County. Soon the rain caught up to us and we drove back home.

I was leaving and going to visit a friend in Rock Creek when I left. I was listening to radio and they kept warning. I decided to head home on my way to Rock Creek. Glad I did. The friend I was going to visit had a good amount of damage, but the area around it was destroyed. To this day when I ride down there, it still never looks like I remember it.

    Hey, I know this is an odd one, but could you cover the Joplin tornado, at some point? I have family that lives all around missouri (Myself included) and I have heard some sturdy strong men say that was the scariest night of their lives.

      Back in 2011 there were dual tornado emergencies simultaneously happening in Dallas and Tarrant (Ft. Worth) counties. I live in Tarrant, and one of them was headed straight for us. The radar was literally two J's moving south to north, which was EXTREMELY weird.

      @mxchasryy Рік тому

      That's where I live btw. I asked people in town if they remember this and I only had 13 people who remember it and that is why I'm asking about this because it was the costliest tornado of the February 23rd 2016 Tornado Outbreak and it almost hit an airport, also if you are wondering Pensacola is in The Florida Panhandle in Northwest Florida and is in the most western county in Florida, Escambia.

    My family lived through this tornado and it was a wake up call for us. We lost our house and so did my father. We were separated from our two kids for hours and it was terrible and scary. I praise God for His protection for our whole family and friends and our church and those in it. It was also a total loss.
