I chased storms for 20 years and one thing that you can definitely see in the destruction path of the tornado is that it was multiple vortex. You can see the smaller vortices circling the main rotation.
The main thing with this Tornado is the Cycloidal marks on the ground. Seen in the historic Tornadoes such as the Rochelle Fairdale Tornado, Washington Illinois Tornado and many others. Fact is that Ted Fujita observed the Cycloidal markings in the 1965 palm Sunday Outbreak. He had the theory of Tornadoes containing sub vortices like horses in a carosel and was proven in the 1974 super Outbreak. Cycloidal marks are sub vortices that are extremely intense probably 200mph to 400mph. Also the path isn't straightforward. The sub vortices can pull the center of the Tornado off, deviating the Tornado a little to the north and a little the east. This Tornado also trench the ground up to 18 inches deep. The Philadelphia EF5 in 2011 is the only other Tornado to trench the ground. However the Cycloidal marks and the trenching was never rated by surveyors.
The ground scouring is incredible. This tornado reportedly lifted a 4 inch concrete slab and threw it half a mile. Pretty insane. Don't forget the ground scouring at Jarrell though. That EF5 basically sat on top of a tiny town and ground everything above ground to dust.
Highest rated wind speeds based on damage for entire track was at 13:12 just right of the pond. Slabbed house rated at 190 mph at end of Strader Ln in Bremen
1:04 you can literally see the track very clearly way off in the distance at multiple times throughout the video. This drone flew very close to my house at one point in this video. Luckily it missed me
What an amazing view of such destruction. I was hoping there would be time stamps as to which town and communities you were flying through. I live in Uxbridge, Canada and don't know the layout of the lands or counties in Kentucky. My town was hit by an EF-2 Tornado this past May.21st 2022 and is still ongoing with the rebuild. Thanks for the video.
Very nice video and work. However, can you indicate in the title or description when this tornado happened? I am not in the US and so am not aware of all the tornadoes. This video was posted Dec 2022 and doesn't indicate when this tornado happened. When I google, I get lots of info about a Dec 2021 tornado but nothing significant in 2022 so this is very confusing. It seems this video documents a 2021 tornado, is that correct? If so can you please put the data in the title. Thanks very much for the hard work on this and your other videos!

Thank you for stamping it.
Incredible Work, I can't even imagine the effort that went in to getting all the footage for this. The damage was just incredible everywhere it went.

Very evident in the ground scouring.. all tornados are made up of smaller vortices
So goofy that a single standing tree beside a house in Bremen was largely why this wasnt given an ef5 damage rating.
The work put into this is crazy. I’m late to comment but this just showed up in my feed. Great video.

Nicely done. Thanks for all of your effort!
90 flights! Incredible!
Awesome video, well put together
Man amazing job with this video this is great!!
Amazing video!!
Its insane to imagine how far this thing had travelled, and leaving a visible scar into the horizon.
1:04 you can literally see the track very clearly way off in the distance at multiple times throughout the video. This drone flew very close to my house at one point in this video. Luckily it missed me
Look awesome video
Wow there is so much emptiness in Kentucky! Even before the tornado!
Dawson path is off a smidge. But amazing work and must have took forever
I was about to ask what kinda drone you have if it can go that far in one trip, then i read the description lol

There will be shortly. We are adding in cards from each town with more video from that town/city.

It is the December 2021 tornado. We also have a documentary on the tornado named 165 miles posted to the channel. Added the date to the description.
What kind of vtx and receiver?
Sü per 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯..
Such pretty landscape. Awful this can happen to us at any time
How do you get the drone back when it is 165 miles away? It can got 300 + miles on a charge? And how do you control it that far away?
It's 90 flights, not 1.
It wasn’t just one flight…
I think it was probably at it's strongest around 1:34
How long after the tornado was this taken?
A few days. There is a lot of video from the morning after on the channel as well.
Hi !
Who pays for the Reconstruction?
Greetings from Germany !
A combination of government, insurance, private owners, charitable groups but many never come close to being made whole.
Mayfield will never be what it was.
The owners do thru insurance
Man that drone must be flying 800mph 😂 on a more serious note how did you stay within flying range of the drone?
More than 90 separate flights over a 3 day period.
Onde é esse lugar
West Kentucky, USA
é no oeste de kentucky nos estados unidos
Lot of people burning depris and destruction.
Good thing all they have is land.
I wonder how much money was given to this State afterwards?
For treed.
😵😵
To fast .making people dizzy. Sheesh
You can slow the speed down.
I have a video that goes the same speed as the tornado but it is several hours long.
@@WxChasingSorry for responding 8 months late, but that would be kind of interesting to see not going to lie.
