@@richardh8355 i helped out with ppl that houses got distroyed we got water and food and clothes and some money i live near linwood literatlly 5 mins away
I was so close behind it just seemed like a wall of rain, didn't even realize that that itself was the outer edge of the tornado. Lucky I didn't try to punch through...
we heard it from 9 miles away like a very energetic rumble of thunder that did not stop. Thank God it lifted back into the cloud and passed over my Twin Brother, the Legends and a huge amount of people inside the 435 loop of kansas city. It touched back down on the other side of the loop in MO but that was like the passover for the most populated area in it's path, Thank God.
Yeah I live in Overland Park... so I was only like 25-30 minutes away from this monster. It was so scary to watch on the news... especially because it was so unexpected and even the meteorologists said it was abnormal.
Same and I remember hearing the news and radio saying there was a potentially violent tornado on the ground. That part made me shit my pants. I know there’s always a chance but when it actually happens it’s crazy
From this angle that area the rotation was over on the next hill behind the hill in the video is where I grew up out in the country. I remember that hill you see had a tornado that came down on it before in the past and we stood on a front porch of a neighbors house and watched it. It was a crazy storm but we did have over 20 minutes (they report 40 minutes) warning before it came near Lawrence. This storm went right by where I work on the east side of Lawrence but the building didn't sustain any damage.
@@YoungBloodGinger By definition there is no EF6 tornado, anything over 200mph wind speeds will be rated an EF5, even if it has 350mph winds, even if it had 400mph winds. The official ratings is >200mph. Highest wind speed ever recorded was 301mph. There is no reason for a higher rating, the end result will all be the same, assured destruction and death.
Were you on Iowa St/US 59? At K-10? At 4:50 you crossed Haskell on K-10, eastbound. I have photos of the helicopter about the time he was over you. Plus video up to the point it took the roof off of the back dide of my house.
i remember when my dad heard the sirens we rushes to our car did not have a basement but still we drove across a bridge and i saw this huge tornado it was just wow.... it made national news to
We are extremely fortunate. The environment was conducive of long-tracked violent tornadoes, and this was the only storm competing for resources in the area at the time. This could of been a disaster of epic proportions had it continued on its projected path through Parkville, Riverside and Gladstone MO, stuff reminiscent of Joplin (2011) and Moore (1999, 2013).
I was at Buffalo Wild Wings in south Lawrence. It was coming straight up 59 and changed course slightly and went north and east behind the Walmart. It was scary.
Oh great...….moving here in May for a summer internship in Topeka...…. No, I'm not dissing the town, but definitely a little nervous about the storm activity. It's not a big deal, until it is...……
Winds speed determines the EF scale. The Nat'l Weather Service clocked winds of 170 mph with this tornado. (160 - 199 mph = EF-4) Anything over 200 mph is an EF-5, the most deadly tornadoes.
Thats so big like a mega down poor and the other video strange sounding siren sounded like a message to find God. It looked like a face running up from the twister in the middle running of the bottom of the chin in the wird siren video and I watched another video today showing a town in America getting a lot more lighting than you would think is normal they seed it was were the barges got stuck in a dam earlier on. You may know where its in the middle I think but its happening so you should be able to check your lighting map for your country. Brother I would pray doing what your doing to make this videos even if matthew was not messaging thats insane weather my friend you want to be blessed and protected. Take care and stay safe keep up the great work God bless you and your family and friends peace be with you all.
Don't take it so personally that u have to troll my channel... Your not a chaser your a chaseeeee...it's ok...ur video is cool..u should rename it though...rock chalk bawk bawk...
i live here it passed a half mile from my house this bad boy was a mile wide
Scariest tornado warning of my life.
I live in city of linwood...it went over my farm land and did damage
I live off 6th Street in Apartments by Walmart and we panicked but just prayed and got thru it.
Samee bro
@@richardh8355 i helped out with ppl that houses got distroyed we got water and food and clothes and some money i live near linwood literatlly 5 mins away
I lived through it. It passed right over the top of my house. 😩 it was horrible. The pressure... the sound... it was so angry.
So your house was leveled to it's foundation?
I live in Linwood and this passed a quarter mile away of my house. It still gives me the shivers
That's one hella big wedge. Lived in Lawrence for 4 years and never saw a single twister...

low owl we heard it too. 4 miles away
I can't believe it's been almost 4 years since this. Thank goodness it didn't change course and go north into my city of Lawrence
I know right! This is my video I shot but I came back to it because I couldn't remember the exact date of it.

Anybody else nervous that theirs gonna be an EF5 coming up?
The anniversary of the monster in El Reno is the 31st.. The way this year has been we might see an f6

@@Those2menoverthere What about an F6, though?
Preliminary findings have Rated this tornado at EF 4 strength. Estimated winds of 170+ mph.

This was from the on ramp from 59 to K-10.
K10 behind Haskell
@@jasonredhorn5697 correct
So Tri-state tornado looked like this?
i remember when my dad heard the sirens we rushes to our car did not have a basement but still we drove across a bridge and i saw this huge tornado it was just wow.... it made national news to
I remember watching that on Facebook and was amazed seeing the inflow feeding into the rest of the storm, never saw anything like it before
I'm watching this for a assignment
I live in Ottawa. 30 minutes south of Lawrence. The land scars are still visible
Willard yep, trees and signs still down
I can't believe this thing actually spared Kansas City...

Yeah we got really lucky. It went right around all of us.
@@sirisaac6125 careful sir, don't jinx it! The weather will be pretty much the same for a couple of days, it's not over yet. Stay safe!
Hit the Tonganoxie split
I’m just happy good old Shawnee Kansas didn’t get hit
I was at Buffalo Wild Wings in south Lawrence. It was coming straight up 59 and changed course slightly and went north and east behind the Walmart. It was scary.
Seems like tornadoes are getting more destructive over a wider area...
No they're not.
@@CrossingTalkAdmin Technically they are. Throughout the past 3 decades, the traditional "Tornado Alley" as expanded eastward
@@mrepicchickenman That's only because the old definition of "tornado alley" was flawed.
Frequency has been lower the past few years. This is a little above average.
@@richavic4520 you're telling me. North AL had spinup tornadoes in 1 day. *It was a marginal risk area*
I live in Lawrence this was like one of the scariest moments of my life
Imagine one of these at night in the middle of the woods.
That was 2 miles from my house and we didn’t take cover we watched it then went to see the after math. This stuff is scary
I live by Walmart on 6th I was scared we just stayed inside the apartment and prayed. It huge! Thankfully it didn't transfer North
I just got out of Lawrence in time after I was visiting a friend.
should have stayed in Lawrence...it just missed Lawrence to south
@@robertracy6860 I live in Leawood, KS and it went north of me to KCK
I felt like this monster wedge tornado should been rating an EF5 because of the windspeeds
i remember standing on the corner of the block watching this storm roll in from topeka, now i storm chase lol
lsm was this beast comeing at you or away from you yes i agree sirens should have sounded
Welcome to Kansas! Mind the sky its killer!
Oh great...….moving here in May for a summer internship in Topeka...…. No, I'm not dissing the town, but definitely a little nervous about the storm activity. It's not a big deal, until it is...……
What is a wedge?
It is a tornado that is as wide as it is tall
Charlie Feese thank you!
Thank God I was in Topeka at the time.
I live in Kansas I didn't get hit but my siren's whet of... It was scary
Great chasing. Excellent work.
Thank you!
My grandchildren, 18, 12, 7 were 1 mile from large damage zone from this tornado. Thanking the Lord Jesus for His protection.
I have a video of my experience.
Whats a rain wrapped tornado?
A tornado hidden inside of rain
I watched it from my front door in West Lawrence less than 2 miles
Luckily I was about 20 minutes out from this, crazy storm last night.
At 2:26 pause it and look how big it is
We have another tornado watch right now. Let's hope nothing comes of it
Reed has things up flying.
my worst nightmare when i see this on my home i will pepee on my pants
I was pregnant with my first baby in Lawrence kansas
Bruh that thing looks as thicc as El Reno
Because it was rain wrapped that whole wall is not actually the tornado it was buried inside of it
I was in cherry hill apartments in lawrence and i was months pregnant
Its big
HI
Tjatcwas scarry as hell i was pregnant
The LK!
looks even bigger than the el reno oklahoma 2013 tornado
El Reno was 2.6 miles wide; this one is 'just' over a mile. Still a beast though!
@@Andizu1 It was rated as an EF4 too
@@josh5347 the width of a tornado doesn't classify it on the EF scale if I remember correctly.
