- Tornadoes are a horrifying force of nature that cause untold destruction all around the world. Even though we can't control or combat them, man has studied their habits and patterns carefully. This had led us to have a very good understanding of them, but this knowledge also tells us that tornadoes the behaviour of tornadoes is changing.

Nevermind that tornadoes have always hit cities, have always traveled up a mountain and across a river or lake. The difference now is that humans are expanding cities, towns, etc., therefore many more people will be impacted when they do develop, or when major outbreaks do occur.
Boom
Yes exactly it’s called the expanding bullseye 🎯 phenomenon more targets to hit means more places WILL be hit
Pretty standard fear mongering here
Naw bro, it's cause of my V6 pickup truck, the government told me so. It's basically all me and my trucks' fault.
So what do you want us to do? Off ourselves or live underground? What?
A few things. The largest tornado outbreaks all occurred outside of Tornado Alley. Some in Dixie Alley, the Ohio Valley etc., including 1965, 1974 and 2011. There are tornadoes north of Kentucky. Canada has tornadoes. They may not be as big or as many but they do occur. Tornado Alley does not stop at the border. There have been a few larger ones including an F5 in Elie Manitoba in 2007, an F4 in Barrie, Ontario in 1985 and an F4 in Edmonton Alberta. The Edmonton tornado was associated with a jet stream that was quite far north. The jet stream does move around. It takes more than a clash of warm air and cold air to produce tornadoes. Wind shear seems to be a big factor. That there are so many factors that go into tornadogenesis is what makes them so fascinating.
They actually happen all over the world but no country on the face of the planet gets them as frequent as the US.
Mr. Knowitall
@@philnovo1832 it's a lot better than not knowing!
Wind sheer is the rising spinning motion of air it’s what kills hurricanes but spawns tornadoes. Eventually tornadoes become more deadlier because people don’t listen and as one mentioned towns cities and other areas are growing, the Ohio river valley and Dixie alley are more dangerous cause of the tall trees, the area is subject to more warming cause of the jet streams ability to carry the gulf moisture and factor in the warming gulf waters as well dew point increase and the higher the dew point the more moisture is in the area for storms to develop but there’s all the vaping inversion too sometimes the cold air above caps and does allow for the storm to rise further and grow so there’s so many things that need to occur for the storms to grow and produce people just need to stay alert and be prepared
The earliest recorded tornado was in 1685 in Massachusetts. So they have been happening since the earth has been here.
Those two cars colliding with each other and then spinning is the best science demonstration I've seen so far on tornadoes. I really feel like I get it now.
🤣🤣🤣
Except, that's not how any kind of tornado or hurricane is created.
God has great plans to prosper you and not to harm you! (Jeremiah 29:11). Remember, you are loved. Even if you aren't loved by people, you're loved by God. God sent Jesus to die for the sins of the world. Those who accept Him as their savior can be saved from eternal damnation. It's about having a fellowship with God and doing His will, too. That's all I got to say. God bless.
yep that's what did it for me too, it was really a eureka moment for me. before i saw that demonstration, i was basically helen keller before anne sullivan came along.
the presentation with the two bottles makes much more sense.
Tornadoes are getting more powerful yet there hasn’t been an EF5 since 2013. That EF scale needs work; it’s like the question of whether a tree falling in a forest makes a sound
Multiple tornadoes have produced EF5 damage but don't get the rating. It's weird.
@@26michaeluk If it's like everything else not reported accurately, 'We don't want to frighten people'. Rightttt..... like they didn't think twice about scaring folks about that so-called illness. Oh and EQs are downgraded much of the time for the same reason.
We are constantly being lied to but it's not gubment doing this, they are being ordered by the ones who are creating all the chaos.
@@26michaeluk when has a tornado produced EF5 damage but not gotten an EF5 rating? I mean the closest I can come up with is the 2015 Rochelle-Fairdale EF4 that was surveyed and put right at the upper limit of 200mph. I've never heard of clear EF5 damage being documented and the tornado not getting the rating.
Well, there isn't much to go on other than the damage. Doppler on Wheels vehicles aren't very common to be able to take realtime, near ground-level windspeed measurements of tornadoes in progress. And in some areas like Dixie Alley, even if there were DoW trucks, the terrain and/or the speed of the tornadoes would make sampling virtually impossible.
@@sabishiihitothe El Reno tornado would be one. It was clearly an F5 but was only given a F3 rating due to the lack of structures impacted. Mobile Doppler recorded winds of 300 mph. It was originally classified as F5 but downgraded to an F3 even though it was 2.5 miles wide.
It never ceases to amaze me how poorly adapted the Tornado Alley housing is to their repeated, known and lethal exposure to tornadoes. Flimsy timber-framed boxes with straight walls, porches and thin tiled roofs. The storms pick them up like pieces of paper.
I cannot understand why a more carapace-style of architecture, indigenous to its counties and made from heftier stuff than wood has not developed. It wouldn't make them 100% survivable - perhaps not even 50%. But that's better chances and would massively reduce the damage and lethality.
IKR hurricant ties and using better plywood on the walls and more anchor bolts ats only few% tgo the cost of house at most yet devopets still SKIMP on it
overwhelming majority of tornadoes are relatively weak (ef0-ef1)and happen out in the middle of nowhere, so it isn't economical to build homes like that. Also tornadoes have destroyed FAR more than just wood, it's also important to remember its not that the wind is blowing, its whats in the wind that is blowing. Even if a house were sturdier, it most certainly wouldn't survive debris being thrown at it like missiles.
Unless your house is an underground bunker or partially submerged into the ground its not gonna survive a direct hit from a tornado EF3 or greater.
@@blackhole9961 Huh, underground bunker or a fallout shelter. Good idea. Why not expand the basement?
I live in Kansas. Tbh, it's expensive to tornado proof a home. Unless you are doing a new build, it would be impossible. You could get a storm shelter if you have the money and the land.
The honest truth is that we get numb to it, just like people who are in the path of hurricanes.
Until we believe the mainstream science and media is not telling us the truth, we can't fix this. It's an electric universe and the sun dictates everything. Storms and earthquakes are generated thru electrical charges. Suspicious Observers on UA-cam will show you how an electric universe works. We are going into a magnetic reversal and there is only limited things
Tornadoes "crossing state lines?" It's a Federal case! Let's charge them in United State District Court!
Lol
"Tornado Alley does not stop at the border." Republican States have tried to pass legislation to CHANGE that, but...
I'm pretty sure that April 3rd/4th, 1974, and April 27th, 2011, were worse outbreaks.
They are. 2011 was the worst and 1974 is in second in terms of number and damage
By a lot and I mean A LOT
@@ashleycantrell9844 The 1974 super outbreak scores far higher than the 2011 outbreak, as it had 7 F5's and more F4's than 2011. Both were insane though.
@@ashleycantrell9844yea 2011 just had the most…
@@ceeinfiniti1389 no it doesn't score higher..least not according to records. Yes to the strengths of them but no in the numbers, cost, and fatality. The 2011 super outbreak had more tornadoes in a 24 period which was 216 compared to 1974s 148. It was costlier and far deadlier as well. During the 3 day period the 2011 super outbreak spawned 360 tornadoes.
Hobbits, we should live like Hobbits.
I've had an idea for an underground community using a giant container ship as a shell. Still trying to figure out how to waterproof it as well as setting up water filtration and purification. Will probably remain a pipe dream, and would probably cost a few billion to build anyway.
Yes!! 🥺😢😰🫵🏿
@@loribroadbent8573 Average cost of a shipping container has a price variation of $1800-$10k+ (longer/wider the container; the more expensive) and is already fitted with maritime-grade corten steel which has its own proofing agents. My only wonder, especially for people who live in heavy flood plains, is how would all that water be diverted? My only thought would be to create a water diversion grid (series of French drains) to flow into a desalination plant/retention pond where water would be filtered and dispersed amongst the community. You're definitely right, all that infrastructure would cost billions but it's something that should be tested. US insurance companies already spend billions per year fixing up destroyed communities from natural disasters; I'm very surprised ideas like this haven't been tested.
@@Nick-xv2bx The reason ideas like this aren't in practice is because shipping containers aren't meant to be used underground. They're designed to be load-bearing at the corners, not the roof or sides, so would have to be heavily modified in order to ensure they wouldn't simply buckle under the weight of the ground on top of them. It's much safer and cheaper just to have a below-ground steel-reinforced concrete shelter built vs modifying a container that's not suited to the purpose it's wanted for.
@@Trainwreck_Art Yeah you make a great point. I've always believed that since shipping containers have a monocoque construction style, the corners of each container would be able to support most of the load bearing weight. Yes the walls are weak, but couldn't those be reinforced with welded horizontal and vertical beams? Or fusing containers side-by-side? There have been container homes constructed underground and successful as a living quarter but on a mass scale the engineering would be tricky.
It's funny they say super Tuesday 2008 was special because Arkansas never sees tornadoes that early in the year. When the worst tornado outbreak in Arkansas history was in January of 1999. The weather isn't changing. It's always been like this. People can just freely hear about it now. In 1999 you didn't know a tornado went though a town unless you lived in the surrounding area.
True people got smarter starting in 2000. That's why Trump was elected President
That's right.
The Earth has been around for about 4.5 billion years. We get a 11 year pause in EF5s and that means the weather isn't changing? You can't have all that solar radiation absorbed into the atmosphere and have no changes. People can debate over what the cause of the temperature rise is, but you can't really dispute there is a temperature rise unless you want to say all that old weather data was collected with improper methodology.
@Tokamak3.1415 you read way too much into my comment. Idk what the 11 year gap even means. And the earth is old. The weather is changing. But what they where referring to. The weather changing suddenly, is ludicrous. The weather is changing. It always has. It always will. That's why the weather isn't changing. Humans think on human terms. Not universal.
@@Tokamak3.1415 no, the old weather data has been altered, do a little research. Climate change is a fraud.
We haven't had an ef5 in 11 years. How are they getting stronger?
All you have to do is google it to find that out real quick. But they are starting to form more often in places they only use to once in awhile or so. North Florida being one of them. I have seen a big increase in tornado activity since last year in my local area. Strongest so far EF3 that came within half of mile of my home back on January 9th. Scared the hell out of me.
@user-sq4qv1ql2q florida is no stranger to tornadoes. The 98 kissimmee outbreak is pretty notable.
@@user-sq4qv1ql2qsorry bud. That’s just nature. Had a friend killed on December 31st 2010 in MO. One week later it was below freezing and snowing.
However I’m not gonna sit here and act like I’ve lived for 4.5 billion years and know everything about how “bad” the weather is getting.
The last 11 years have been easy breezy compared to 2013, 2011, 2004, 1999, 1998, 1974, and 1925.
Just cause some finally touched down in NJ near you only means the warm air from the gulf went your way for a change leaving us here in the Midwest with a bit of a breather.
Try to remember the world is much bigger than your area. More tornadoes in your area and less in ours doesn’t sound like it’s getting worst imo.
@@JohnSmith-zc3ycindeed

The insight provided into the mechanisms behind tornado genesis is invaluable. From wind shear to downdrafts, every detail explained here helps us grasp the complexity of these natural phenomena. The implications for forecasting and disaster preparedness are immense. Incredible work by the researchers and producers!
When I was 5, a tornadoe passed us in Oak Park, Michigan. All I can recall is water pouring under the door and a loud screaming.
Tornadoes can happen at anytime of the year. Depends on hot and cold mixing fronts. In Colorado with a number of different climates, there has been at least one tornado in every county in the state.
I live in LaPlata County, CO. near the NM border. In my 50 years here I have never heard of a tornado being reported. They are called "wind bursts" that take off roofs and move buildings. That is because "we don't have tornadoes here!"
@@flowzerr4550 there has been a tornado in every county in Colorado. I'm a of native of Colorado too.
@@flowzerr4550 Colorado tornado history has a map of every county and how many in that county
October of 2004 there was a tornado near Durango. I was in 5th grade at the time and one of the teachers had land near the touchdown point. You got me curious so I did some digging, the La Plata County Hazard Mitigation Plan of 2013 lists 13 tornados recorded in La Plata county since 1957 on page 4-60 by their numbering, page 112 of the pdf@@flowzerr4550
Had 11 touch down in 1 day on December 25th, 2015, here near Dallas, Texas...so yea, not our normal "storm season," but it was like 80 85 on Christmas day that day...crazy
If tornados are getting stronger why did some of the most notable ones happen a decade or more ago? For example, the Tri-state Tornado (1925), the Jarrell Texas F5 in 1997, the More OK F5 in 2013, Joplin, Missouri Tornado (2011), 2011 El Reno-Piedmont tornado or the Super Outbreak (2011). It's reprehensible to politicize the weather. This documentary didn't age well. How old is this documentary anyway?
2011 was insane.
They aren't statistically getting stronger..
Don’t interfere with the narrative.
To help explain, only two of those tornadoes had happened before the documentary this footage is from was released. This documentary was from 2008.
Good job stretching a tight 15 minutes of material into nearly 46 minutes. Ugh.
😅😅😅😅 I'm dead!!! Don't u hate that tho
You don't have to watch.
@@WouldntULikeToKnow. dumb response, considering I already did, only to find out they stretched 15 minutes of useful information into 46 minutes, as I already wrote.
And yet, here you are.
@@user-lc4qe4gr7k Yes... because I watched the whole thing. "Being here now" is just me commenting that, again, it was disappointingly little content padded out to 46 minutes.
They are changing because the government is playing God
you mean emissions right you cannot control mother nature you can only influence it and humans most certainly are influencing it.
I doubt it I think our planet warming is causing these weather phenomena. The emissions we are putting into the atmosphere are trapping more heat energy thus when the cold collides with it the jet the storms are more intense.
Hardly. Climate Change makes more sense.
Nah God is coming
@katem.8816 - yes, but it's not caused by humans.
No EF5s in the last 10 years is pretty historic. This isn’t aging well.
There’s been a handful of tornadoes that actually have done EF-5 damage such as 2014 Vilonia EF-4, 2015 Rochelle-Fairdale EF-4, 2016 Chapman EF-4, and 2022 Pembroke EF-4. They just weren’t given an EF-5 rating
@@tttornadoes That's because the rating is based on wind speed and a solid estimation of wind speed is obtainable now on most tornados. It's only based on damage, or an estimate of damage, where wind speed is unavailable. An EF-4 tornado is a populated area is going to do more damage than an EF-5 tornado in an unpopulated area.
What about the Joplin tornado and the Dead man walking tornado in Jarrell??!! BOTH EF5'S with latter stripping the fur from animals and at least a few inches of ripped asphalt. Jarrel was DEADLY.
@@ayasreviewsandtoycolection7148 What about them? They're both over 10 years ago.
Meanwhile NEW JERSEY is now seeing EF3 tornados. An incredible uptick in the amount of tornados seen per year. I'd say your comment aged poorly, but it was born impoverished. Not to mention states like Ohio and West Virginia averaging more tornados than Texas and Oklahoma this year.
When was the original air date for this documentary? It has to be sometime between 08 and 10 since there's not even a mention of the 2011 super outbreak
Good catch. That's exactly the timeframe it came out.
Produced 2008 (MMVIII).
I thought the same thing
I live near Pittsburgh, and traditionally tornadoes have been for the most part non-existant. But not anymore. I saw 2 tornadoes come up the Ohio River Valley several years ago and do some serious damage in parts of Pittsburgh. And the tornado warnings here in our area are becoming more frequent.
I'm glad to see these weather professionals are not blaming "man made" climate change and global warming on this change in tornadoes. Thankfully most of them seem to know better and stick to the real science. Climate change has been a natural "non-man" related phenomena since the dawn of the planet. Long before mankind existed. Heat cycles and sno-ball earth cycles have come and gone without man all by themselves. Due to natural, volcanic, and tectonic plate cycles/movement and solar cycles etc.
Though man's contribution to atmospheric conditions is inevitable to some degree, we are only a small contributor to these changes. We now contribute far less pollution, greenhouse gases and general atmospheric filth than we did in early industrial revolution days up through the 1970's. But, the more energy we use, the more we heat the atmosphere. So we do contribute heat increases into the system to some level. Not near enough reliable data to know how much yet. In fact any good atmospheric scientist will tell you one very large volcano would do more climate damage in a short period of time than all of mankind's technology heat and gas output combined. There is massive evidence to support that in the historic geological records.
The whole Green Weenie Movement is mostly about scamming research grant money for Universities and their students to keep them employed and selling Carbon Credits, the biggest financial scam in history and every business who gets shaken down to buy into the carbon credit scam is really stupid or part of it. Follow the real science, please don't get sucked into the scan artists view of it.
No....the planet is heating up faster than any point scientists can go back to. If both Polar ice caps melt totally, the Statue of Liberty will be under water up to her ELBOW so goodbye New York City. Where will all those 10 million people go? Oh they can just sell their home and move?!😅😅 You people are just not listening to the CLIMATE SCIENTISTS who have been saying for years that 4 to 5 more degrees in global temperatures rise, we are all truly effed!! Even Exxon Mobil wrote a letter in the 1970's saying they new the fossil fuels were accelerating climate change!!
Tornado Alley hasn't moved. It's just that we have more than one of those.
Dixey ally also
Tornadoes are not getting more powerful, we are just able to more accurately gage their damage. We are also more populous in areas where tornadoes have always been, so they aren't more numerous. In fact, there has not been an EF5 rated tornado in the US in more than 10 years.
Additionally, tornadoes have been present across the US Midwest since the formation of the rockies quite literally millions of years ago... they have never been limited to just tornado alley.
I have an immense respect for the research and the researchers dealing with these kinds of catastrophic weather conditions, but they are being done NO favors by media and film makers that exaggerate and sometimes outright fabricate information about the subject. It serves not to educate but to create mistrust in the minds of the public...
This could have been a great documentary, but the exaggeration from the narration ruins it.
What exactly was the exaggerating legit question
I totally agree another documentary trying to push climate change/Global Warming/Global Cooling. They can't prove that Co2 causing the warming or extreme weather because of too many variables. Ocean Currents, Jet stream, The output of the sun, Volcano Eruptions, Rotation of the earth(wobble), and many other factors we may not even know about. But we dead certain CO2 causing the planet to warm. Just like Plants need CO2 to Produce O2. I just laugh at the fact we don't actually use scientific method anymore to prove or disprove theories. We just accept the ones that goes with the narrative. Exactly what they was leading up to at the end of the video. Sad I seen it coming towards the beginning.
You're in denial.
In my experience, I did not hear a freight train as the tornado approached. To me, it sounded like pure Evil. And it was personal as if the tornado wanted me dead. This is something one never forgets. And at their most fundamental level, they are an Electrical event.
It sounded like a waterfall to me.
we got sideswiped by an ef3 and it sounded like a jet engine
Nature is NEVER evil. Evil is a made up human thing. Tornadoes are just a function of Nature that we don't fully understand. I respect Nature and even if, as a human, I don't "like" the consequences of her power, I will not call that evil.
@beckythornton6470 That's pretty dang funny. He said it "SOUNDED evil." And your response, "how dare you call nature evil." I'm guessing the list of approved adjectives hadn't hit his inbox before describing how a tornado made him feel at the time.
@tjunk2869 you're right, it was stated it "sounded Evil" however the response that evil is a made up thing is spot on. No one knows what evil sounds like because evil doesn't exist. Only favorable and unfavorable actually exist. Everything we ascribe to the unfavorable, miserable, and terrifying things and people do is just human hyperbole in attempting to make sense of this world, to bring human need for order and understanding to it. At their status as fully unfathomable to non-scientists, it could sound "evil," but let's not say anything nature does has any characteristics beyond simply happening. It's a planet, with events caused by planetary forces, but it isn't a garden of Eden.
Imagine having tech that could influence/manipulate weather. Imagine what corruption would/could do with that kind of power.
It already exists.
I'll keep it simple, weather patterns follow 1 of 2 primary phenomenon that dictate the structure of an atmosphere which is constantly moving in response to the planets rotation.
1 is called BAROTROPIC INSTABILITY (where pressure Gradients move in sync with and therefore align with Density Gradients). This is only prominent around the equator where the coriolis effect is at its weakest, hurricanes develop within this structure and generally has no "Frontal Zones" associated with this structure, such as cold, warm or occluded fronts. When this type of structure contributes to instability it manifests patterns that are similar to Plantery waves CALLED ROSBY WAVES, but they are rather broad and have an extremely long wavelength (mostly in excess of 4,000 km).
The other one however is what drives the highest degrees of energy release in the form of Severe weather and this type of atmosphere structure becomes more and more prominent when you get away from the equator and into the mid-latitudes where the Barotropic structure is less prominent, this structure is called BAROCLINICITY. From which you get the phenomenon of BAROCLINIC INSTABILITY, (where pressure Gradients move out of sync with and therfore DO NOT align with density Gradients, or more accurately stated; they vary briefly do have times where both types of Gradients will align but they certainly will not stay aligned for very long. Unlike Barotropic structure, a Baroclinic Structure will affect severe weather development and in the mid-latitudes these storms will have associated Cold, Warm and Occluded Fronts.)
The most important aspect of these 2 atmopspheric structure types is that they both balance their fluid components through a "Wave Propagation", almost exclusively on the planetary scale where their wavelength is measured in thousands of kilometers (again, 4,000 km roughly). Baroclinic waves carry a pressure factor, a heat factor and a time factor but most importantly, unlike barotropic instability which fluctuates mostly just because of heat and pressure, has a density factor that contributes to determining where is the path of least resistance for TEMPERATURE Advection to occur. This makes Baroclinic Wave Propagation have highest strength in regions where temperature Advection (either cold air Advection or warm air advection) is strongest, this is critically important for Severe weather storms and no matter what they say about climate change the phenomenon of Baroclinicity is always present, from the first day that this planet developed an atmosphere to the day it dissipates into nothing this phenomenon will always be there and not even volcanic eruptions, ice ages or even solar flares will disrupt this form of Wave Propagation.
There is 1 thing however that can "Manipulate" or INFLUENCE the density factor of Baroclinic Wave Propagation and can both diminish and/or augment (enhance per se) the strength of the associated temperature advection and where the Temperature Advections take place. Physics demonstrates what is referred to as "The Inverse Sine Law", this law dictates how Particle/Wave relations follow a proportionality constant, therfore HEAT energy that can be expelled into the surrounding from a decaying particle is proportional to both Frequecny & Wavelength but most of all proportionally to the Amplitude of a Wave that will propagate in a tangential direction away from the particle as the particle moves and decays. The greater the Amplitude of the wave, the greater the amount of heat it can dispell into the surrounding environment and when it comes to severe weather where storms require Convection for Lifting (both updrafts and downdrafts) air parcels containing heat which makes them more BUOYANT than their surrounding environment is everything. It is not a coincidence that big cities where tons of asphalt and concrete surfaces reflect surface heat up into the atmosphere can even on a small scale affect the Baroclinic Structure of the atmosphere on the planetary scale, cities are certainly similar to magnets that can attract storms development because their heat signature makes them favorable to both pressure and density Gradients.
Most of all, ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES such as Infrared and Mirowave radiation follow the "Inverse Sine Law", making the particle/Wave proportionality of these frequencies heat profiles perfectly capable of affecting the dispersion of heat into the surrounding environment. So in a big city where you have greater concentrations of radio towers, cell towers and even Doplar Radar towers you also have a greater magnitude of available heat at the surface and the near-surface layer of the atmosphere, heat that can take an already favorable region for Temperature Advection and make it even more favorable for the development of buoyant air parcels that will be guaranteed to lift and iniate the process of Convective, a.k.a. "Lifting"; and now storms can be born. Making moderate sized and especially big cities that are saturated in electromagnetic radiation even stronger hot spots for Density Gradients of the Baroclinic Structure of the atmosphere that are more pronounced the further away you go from the equator.
In essence, storms have always been this strong and always located in the regions we see them in, even if they were less destructive because the region used to be wide open range or farm land but is now a suburb of a growing city. Same amount of energy is being dissipated into the surrounding environment as always, even with more available heat energy to for these storms to feed on they generally only last as long as they always have because no matter how much energy (for severe weather is measured in Convectively Available Potential Energy: CAPE) is food for storm development, the Frontal Zones associted with Baroclinic Waves are always synoptic Scale (1K to 2K km) in size and the Propagation of Barolcinic Waves on the planetary scale follows a very conservative timeline from when the waves start and when they inevitably decay, regardless of wherever the region is when these waves are at their strongest peak (whether it's over the oceans, the continental coastlines, big mountain ranges, deserts, plains or low lying flood basins, the timelines almost always consistent)... Nevertheless, yes absolutely the heat signatures of cities, roads and especially radio waves can affect weather patterns on the small scale, but not alter the patterns. To do that would require massive amounts of energy to affect the planetary waves that encircle the earth at both poles and not even volcanoes or solar flares have permanently altered weather patterns that are inherently associated with both the Barotropic and Baroclinic structures of the atmosphere.
I can imagine a technology that could speed up or slow down the earths rotation, a technology that can use Wave dynamics to "Refract" as well as reflect the energy of Wave Propagation and channel the direction at which the energy is dispersed/dispelled into the surrounding environment and even imagine a technology that can alter the required thicknesses for which Cloud Ceilings need in order to condense precipitation, fortunately I don't think that the Private Sector industries or even the militarys of the world have yet to refine them to the order of magnitude to permanently affect the structure of the atmosphere. Let's just hope it stays that way.
There was a movie about controlling weather, dont recall the name
They have had that for a very long time. They spray us like bugs every day. And night, and have been for years. The government is the problem.
@@UncommonDenominatorj528I agree, but do you know where you can find a tornado gun?

Nope, I'd love to as well.
Look for a new type of ride coming soon to an amusement park near you. 🎢🎠🎡
Me too!! I would to do that!!
Nature is unpredictable. You can’t control it, you can’t predict its movement no matter how much they try. Nature changes up faster than one can think. Nature is an unknown element, it adapts and alters all the time. It’s like trying to create a pattern with a scattered dot system.
1) There have always been tornadoes outside the normal "Tornado Alley". Most of the largest super outbreaks have been (1974 and 2011 anyone?)
2) One main reason we're seeing "more frequent and more powerful tornadoes now" is the inevitable spread of our cities. Areas that 50-70 years ago were mostly open fields or woods are now suburbs filled with homes and businesses. A tornado back then could have been on the ground for 5 miles and gone mostly unnoticed. The same tornado in the same place today, and boom, you have fatalaties and billions in damage.
Even here in Romania where i live my town like 10 years ago near Timișoara in the west part of Romania didn't have any residential area. Since then we have 2 new neighborhoods surburbia alike.
Same goes for America, i bet 10 years ago in your town at the edges there weren't any house.
It's not only that cities are getting bigger and becoming a bigger Target, it's that they are part of the problem! they say the city of Atlanta creates its own weather because of the tremendous heat in the city. All the blacktop roads, all the stone buildings collects Heat! I live in Wisconsin and we always have several tornadoes on the minimum!
You realize that radar lets them evaluate frequency and approximate energy regardless if there is damage or fatalities, right? You know, like hurricanes while they are still out in the ocean?
APRIL 27TH 2011-TUSCALOOSA TORNADO 🌪
A friend of mine had a dream about two weeks after being in this tornado in 2011. In the dream he asked the Tornado 🌪 which he said had eyes nose and mouth: what’s your name? The tornado 🌪 replied: TUSCALOOSA TAMMY!
I dont have a doorstep, I dont think Torando will show up.
200 iq solution. everyone get rid of your doorsteps immediately and never worry about tornadoes again.
So nothing about how the research, science & weather instruments getting better.
People who dont follow this stuff dont realize winter time has a tornado season as well not as long but they happen been happening since dinosaurs im sure
For real. You can easily tell who pays zero attention to the weather except for the nonsense the news spews
@slayer18726 it's unreal these liberals we get few nice days in winter and they screaming global warming but when it's 5 degrees next month they disappear lol. Tornados have nothing do with global warming tornados just didn't start forming last 200 yrs . Anything for this govnt to create money and spend on with this climate shit
Since the Dinosaurs might be a little bit of an exaggeration, tectonic plates and all
😂 since dinosaurs hahahahahaha
@lewisblackwiththenicehair so u think tornados just formed out of no where lol u do know weather has been happening since earth was even made.
If I'm going to die in a tornado 🌪️ I want to be way up in the sky defying gravity 😊
This has probably happened more times than we realize look-up rolling fork Mississippi tornado lights.
You'll put your eye out kid !!!
The flipside of this is that record keeping has become much more prolific & accurate, the details we are retaining about tornadoes are much more specific, we're learning a _hell of a lot_ of new stuff about tornadoes very quickly and paying closer attention to them. Also, and this is huge, chasing tornadoes, approaching them as a passionate hobby has increased quickly, especially since the movie "Tornado."
Experts. Lmao
Tornados arent getting worse its literally a gamble of where they hit they have videos of monsters that stay over land but they cant get a idea of how stromg was cuz dodnt hit anything
With the conditions in this video, they are.
@leovanlierop4580 lol what? Mean they are we haven't had a f5 in 11 yrs before that their was a ef5 every other yr or so
@leovanlierop4580 if u haven't noticed most these videos are from 99 to 2013 lol
@@patricklaurojr7427 if you want a conversation, react on what I said. Waiting...
@leovanlierop4580 what I don't even know what that means or ur talking about ur saying based on this video tornados are getting worse and I'm telling you as a person who literally is very knowledgeable on tornados its not true. These videos in this clip are old videos of tornados . If they are getting worse why haven't their been a ef5 in 11 years? Before 2011 their was a ef5 averagely once a year
A lot of us in tornado alley are living in rental properties and are not in a position to do anything whatsoever to bolster or modify those places. We can try to find the best and closest places to shelter but that can be difficult as well. The more financial options one has the better, but many just have to deal with the storms to the best of their ability. That's life.
You should edit out the return-from-commercials-recap, so annoying.
It's for people that go poop and forget what they were watching by the time they get back.
2023 was the year Illinois had the most tornadoes in the state's history. Also, Chicago's definitely going to be in danger of being wiped off the map by a mega tornado in the near future.
Interestingly, the Chicago area had a minor outbreak in February 2024. This winter was weird in the area. You didn't even need a heavy coat on Christmas, but then everything winter was dumped in January, huge snowfall, polar vortex cold, ice... Then February warmed up much more than it should.
@@Nurichiri I literally survived driving through a tornado warned storm in my car on February 27th, 2024 at night with half-dollar sized hail.
@@scottdakadescot4127 I was watching it very nervously on radar since that EF3 back in 2021 just missed my house. The February storms went north and south of me though.
I wonder how well a tornado would hold together with all the tall construction to interrupt the tornado's circulation? Chicago could be in line for a powerful storm, but we're NOT immune; we've HAD tornadoes here for sure! But I'd be interested to find out whether skyscrapers could have an effect on a tornado.
You mean recorded history, so 200 years or so of the past billions?
Since 1950, the population of the state of Texas has more than tripled. So more people injured or killed, more homes destroyed , and with housing prices as they are, monetary damages will go through the roof (no pun intended). Also in 1950 a tornado could have hit a town 20 miles away from you , and it might be weeks before you ever heard about it. Today, I can set here on the east coast and watch the weather in Honolulu.
Buckle up, boys and girls. We're going back to La Niña this year.
Cloud seeding is the biggest threat to mankind. Look back when this seeding started you paint a picture.
How are they changing? They're not getting stronger lol.
We haven't had a EF-5 in 11 years. Nice try though. 👍
Shhhhh, stop spreading fake news and ruining this “perfect” video.
They are happening in areas that never get them and in winter
@@user-jy7mc2gp2y what areas are you referring too? I'd like some examples.
Also, since recorded history there is generally a period of warmer air during the winter that causes tornados to happen in certain areas of the US.
Just because air masses shift due to a dynamic planet like we live on doesn't mean anything is getting worse.
I live in tornado Alley , my first tornado experience was in 1997 with an F2 and I was also involved in an EF3 in December of 2010 which killed my friend.
I lived 60 miles from Joplin in 2011 and helped with the clean up the day after and to help find people still trapped or lost.
Needless to say I know at least a little about the weather.
Here in tornado Alley to be honest the last decade has actually been far more chill than I remember growing up. The 90's up to about 2014 were significantly more active than the last decade.
Our planet is very dynamic and has existed for 4.5 billion years. You cannot say this area has never gotten tornados.... Humanity hasn't been around long enough to say such claims.

We have had territyi g tornadoes forever. We just have more up to date reporting, more people than ever in this country and tornadoes are rated. I have read about tornadoes back to the 1800's.
When I was a kid in Ohio , I was always paranoid about tornados.... people thought I was crazy. Now Ohio has had 43 tornadoes already this year and it ain't even may yet.
I was in the Woodridge, Illinois tornado in June 2021. That was the most scary and unexpected storm I've ever experienced. We only had a severe thunderstorm warning, no tornado watch. I got a call from my daughter saying she heard tornado sirens blaring. She lived 20 minutes away. I heard nothing. I got up and looked outside, nothing. I started getting dressed, and the power went out. I knew something was wrong. It wasn't even storming yet. I went in the hallway where my neighbors were, and they all said there was a tornado headed our way. I heard a loud roar that sounded like a freight train. After the tornado passed, I was too afraid to see if my car had damage, so I waited until morning. What I seen was unlike anything I've ever seen. 8 blocks from my house had a path of severe destruction. EF3 touched down at 11: 25 pm. Ppl literally were sucked out of their houses because they were asleep and unaware. SCARY. 😱
Tornadoes are at an all time low tho and there havent been any F5's in a decade lol
They lie to their uneducated viewers about that all the time.
i was thinking the same thing, but it also doesnt mean there hasnt been ef5 winds the past decade, since so many go unrated due to not hitting anything. I do not see no increase like the video suggests though. I do agree with them though that locations and time of year and frequency has changed, pretty crazy ohio was leading the nation in tornados lol, not saying ohio hasnt had terrible naders, cuz they have, but the frequency of northern usa outbreaks seems to be rising.
They want to fear monger for the bs climate changers.
There have been, they've not been properly rated. It's a huge thing among weather experts trying to find out why.
over 200 so far in 2024 says you are mistaken
Tornadoes pretty much been the same since i've been born
Tornadoes are possible ANY time of year, having them happen in Winter and fall isn't really that uncommon like this channel is trying to say. You only need favorable weather conditions for them to happen, yes they are most common in spring/summer but they can happen *ANY* time of year.
Pluvicopia, 2023, shows how there is an additional source of energy; dry air high in the atmosphere. Tracking these dry air paths will give hours of warning, not just minutes.
I live in Tulsa Oklahoma where tornadoes are common. What I can say is that this past summer we experienced something I believe the city hasn’t experienced before, we had tornado winds and hurricane speed type winds sweep across the whole city around July. No tornado in site, just 100+ mph winds which is have never been in a hurricane but I have been in many tornadoes. I can’t only compare to what I think a hurricane would feel like especially with the speeds over 75% of the whole city lost power maybe more in low balling just incase, it was the craziest storm I’ve witnessed we were out of power for a week middle of the summer blazing hot 🥵. I definitely know that storms are getting worse
It’s called a derecho. They happen every so often.
The state I live in will have upwards of 60” of snow in one season. This past year we barely had 18” and the temperatures were so unusually warm that it was hard to believe that it was winter.
Crazy times right now.
That must have been weird and crazy seeming! And more than a bit concerning.
Perfect storm
They're not getting worse. If you plotted, by year, from the 1930s, temperatures (not the tampered data NOAA reports), over 100°, 90° & 80° days, acreage burned & deaths from weather related events, every curve would be downward sloping from the 1930s until now. It's a Con.
YES! The tornado videos are great!
Not only was my family directly hit by one of the tornados in 1974 but they also were affected by the 2011 as well. It’s a dark family joke that we attract the worst tornados wherever we live.
Why would I watch a SPARK video and not understand that “climate change“ was going to be the REASON!? Why not? Spark has to be SPARK.
They aren’t getting stronger or more frequent.
They are too stupid to research 1925 or 1974. Stupid disinformation machine n this pile of trash video.
This is more hot air than I’ve seen coming out of jim crowe Joe and cackling kamala

Tornadoes are the most horrifyingly intriguing things out there. Their formation is so delicate but yet they’re so destructive. I love Tornado lore lmao.
Ohio is bad already had the highest number for 2024 than any other state
I’m moving to Alaska immediately
Welcome to Dixie ally! I’ve lived down here all of my life and it’s always been like this. The only reason the media covered it was that it happened on Super Tuesday.
Using kentucky as an indicator that the jet stream is moving north is not plausible- if anything it indicates that the jet stream is moving easterly
Time for me to finally follow my dream of opening a kite store!
Not in Kansas, you can't have shit in Kansas.
This is such bunk. Why are you trying to scare people? I’ve been studying tornadoes for 30 years. Nothing has changed. There are always normal cycles that last about a decade. In the south, we get plenty tornadoes in the winter. Always have. November and December are our second tornado season. February through April is the primary season.
Yeah, and "outside the normal tornado alley". I guess they completely forgot about April 3-4, 1974. Xenia, Ohio isn't exactly in the middle of tornado alley either.
Seriously, this fear mongering political and religious agenda BS is the only thing that's getting stronger.
The whirlpool demonstration was awesome. Amazing how much faster the spinning gets the job done!❤
A pretty strong hypothesis regarding one way a tornado can touch down is ground convection in front of the storm creating horizontal rotation in the air. If a storm comes along just right, it pulls the horizontal tube of rotating air vertical which can then get caught in the supercell's rotation. That makes a very efficient route for air to get pulled into the storm and sets off a positive feedback loop where all the air gets pulled in causing more spin causing more air to get pulled in. Then you have a tornado.
44:45 and yet sadly, and eventually tragically, we’ve seem to come to live in a culture where so called personal truths and opinions as facts become the shiny objects that hold sway for policy and public safety decision making. Yet when tragedy inevitably strike it’s these same ones who’ll howl in resentment for the effects of the poor decisions made by those they insisted on electing to make the forgone horrible policy choices they initially and loudly supported.
It’s a horribly depressing cycle.
Well, when it comes to tornadoes specifically, you need a mix of hot air and cold air. With the warming of the earth you have more hot air sure, but you also have less cold air. That means where tonadoes used to occure they will actually be weaker overall but the hot air will now push into cooler areas and you will get stronger tornadoes where you didn't get them before.
For thousands of years First Nations peoples knew enough not to settle in the Central Plains.
The biggest impact of this will be insurance companies refusing to cover these areas. This will leave home owners without the ability to insure their mortgages therefore leaving them without the ability to get a mortgage because banks won’t give you a mortgage without insurance. Same can be said for the car industry. Imagine buying a car and having a payment plan for the next 5yrs then your car gets totaled in year one but the insurance company won’t cover your car leaving you without a car for the next 4yrs but you still have a payment. This will be devastating to millions of Americans.
I want to watch this but I cannot stand the over-sensationalized American editing style anymore. The anxious track and voiceover, the numerous sound effect hits... just don't need it
Solution= don’t watch… ugh
this is so fair honestly. as an american, i'm pretty fed up with it too. it's patronizing as shit
Focus on how Global warming is destroying the infrastructure of the world.
Agreed
Try lsd for your uncontrollable anger
"Tornadoes are getting more powerful. What can we do to save more lives??"
Move out of tornado alley?!!!
Tornado Alley is truly everything between the Rockies and Appalachians.
Warnings, construction, more underground shelters, etc
@@pamelaleigh4225 underground shelters definitely.
@@Scottocaster6668 Underground shelters are ideal in places where its remotely feasible to make them, but depending on the region you can have a couple problems. Really high bedrock can make getting deep enough to make a shelter incredibly costly and difficult, and high water tables can cause a shelter or basement to instantly flood due to the complete saturation of the dirt around it.
I live in Ohio, this year, (2024) we've seen more tornados than any other state and it's only APril, that is soooooo rare.
I'm in Jackson and I remember seeing the damage from that tornado, we got really lucky that it didn't hit our best Kroger!!!
Tornado getting worse u do know their hasnt been a f5 in 11 yrs now compared to one hitting every other yr. I think tornado alley is shifting east but has nothing do with how powerful they are they been around before humans walked this earth
So the issue with tornado ratings is they are rated based on the damage they cause. Not based on the wind measured. If it was measured this way we would have had dozens of EF5 tornadoes in the last decade. Think of it as luck that no EF5 level damage has hit a town since 2013.
@lucaweatherdude_6542 oh I know a house can get leveled off foundation and tornado be only 100 yards wide and get ef5 rating unlike a monster 2 miles wide over open land and only hits a shed and gets a ef2 . I do think some towns were robbed since moore like Mayfield should been ef5 I even think Hattiesburg was ef5. I think it's the govnt cuz homeowner insurance goes by the rating like a ef5 they cover 100pcnt and govnt has give up funds etc so I beleive its a insurance scam. I mean these ef4s the winds are always between 190 and 200mph u mean tell me that thing didn't hit over 200 its wild and wouldn't surprise me now days with these ppl.
We actually don't know that for certain and there have been tornadoes that produced EF5 damage but haven't been rated properly.
@26michaeluk exactly I can name 2 of them should been a ef5 Mayfield and Rochelle Fairdale were monsters. But who knows with govnt they are corrupt insurance pays out according to the rating so prob why they don't give ef5s that easy anymore
@@lucaweatherdude_6542there hasn't been any statistical increase in the number or severity of tornados of the last 100 years.
Here in Ohio, we are becoming part of the new tornado alley. We've always been on the sidelines, but Ohio has been seeing an increasing number of them.
Same here in Kentucky. Tornado Alley has moved further and further east the last 25 years.
HAHAHAHA! You are fooled by Psyops. Show us your evidence of that. I live in Ohio and have family in Kentucky.
@@CapeCod1620 I live in Ohio and have family in Kentucky too. Lol. We might be related.

This is something to be aware of for sure. I grew up in Indiana and I may move back there in the future
"Tornadoes are becoming more powerful", and yet there hasn't been an EF5 since 2013 (Moore, Oklahoma)
Nothing like a 15 year old show whipping up peoples fear that the world is coming to an end
I have noticed that tornado warnings and damage seem to be increasing in Ohio. Further East than normal..... and a lot have happened just in the past few months! Its April right now!
Right
How can you know that the nature of tornadoes is changing when you have less than 100 years of data and much less than that with modern technology...
Straw piercing telephone poles in a myth.
What happens is the wind is twisting the pole, it opens 'cracks' in the pole along the grain. Then blowing debris can get into the crack if it's slim enough, and once the wind passes the pole returns to normal shape and the cracks close.
I take it that homeowners should retrofit their roofs and bolt them, with the walls, to the floors and foundations, to secure them. Less debris means better outcomes.
That’s a lot of money. Hurricane straps do a lot of the same job by nailing the roof joists directly to the beams that transfer the load to the foundation.
During a severe storm/tornado warning. I believed that I heard very faintly the🌪 tornado sirens going off in town but when I threw back the covers to hear outside it was too late, my wife farted and I mistook her whistling poop shoot as sirens😢😂
Well that stinks
@@paulcarpenter7844literally
Oh, I hate you. I thought this was serious and I was like serious thinking you were gonna tell me something and then you told me this.😂
So the wind blew hard that night? Hope you are safe.
These are the comments I can appreciate.
There's one thing you can learn from this snippet is tornado's are going to happen no matter what! We should make retractable home's that can be lowered underground as a way to cut down on cost's of rebuilding if nothing else make underground shelters. In the end get used to this because there is more to come.
Serious question if the storms are going to be moving more to the north the Northeast, does that mean that they're going to start tracking around Texas instead of through it? I mean, it's been 20 years almost since this storm happened, and we've had a lot of bad storms in Texas since then, so I'm just curious
You notice how the tornadoes didn't hit until the presidents were all getting together😂
We are getting worse storms in the last few years. We had several tornadoes ncluding an F3 in February in NJ...
You don’t know they are worse we have only been keeping records of twisters for 150 years. And the earth isn’t in a centennial rhythm.
Well he's not wrong they are getting more tornadoes in the Northeast
A simple answer is the magnetic north is shifting away so expect it to more warm and humid because the earth is tilting and it is natural
I might be seeing a pattern here.
I saw a bowling ball trope in a part of the video, and i'm pretty sure it's related to the "Super Tuesday" thing. Today (5/03/24 on Friday) another bowling ball trope is coming in from the west. It feels as if there is something creating pulses of extreme low pressure areas.
*Edit: it hits the central U.S. around next Monday
Let’s not forget cloud seeding
I haven’t watched but five minutes so far, but I’m going to guess “climate change” or global warming will be mentioned as a culprit. Although the climate is constantly changing, and it’s obvious that there have been less frequent and less intense hurricanes and tornadoes recently 🤷♂️
What do you know, I was correct. Shocking 😂
And not one kid hurt at Union University. We could only watch. Was a lucky day for most of us.
I used to live in Wichita. After the F5 hit More Oklahoma I moved to western Colorado. No tornado here
Tornados are the exact same they always have been
“Getting stronger”. We haven’t had an F5 in over 10 years.
The water bottle display is one of the most unique examples of a Tornado I ever seen 🌪
