We're having a tornado outbreak. That's just one of several tornadoes that have been on the ground. There are still 6 tornado warnings right now.
A few weeks back, we had 12 tornadoes in Kentucky. Stay aware and safe.
Im from the uk and Ive been following this outbreak all day on twitter and the radar. Stay safe.
@@callumjeavons8575Thank you! Saturday is going to be wild! All the way from the Southern Border to Michigan. Stay safe y’all!
a couple weeks ago i was at work (i mostly drive for work) and i got caught up in a rainstorm with tornado warnings blaring. Seems they have popped up a lot more this year.
Night of the twisters all over again, maybe not as bad though
That is a perfectly formed supercell storm. There is almost NO rain surrounding the tornado. You dont see them like that too often.
I’m going to say for the last time. This year will be unprecedented for many states, a lot of storms and tornadoes. People will be confused and blame weather modification. It’s just climate change accelerating + El Niño in full power
@@giganigga9624 yip....and it's been going on for 5 million years.
@@giganigga9624 THANK YOU. You have NO idea how many people need to hear that.
Climate change has been happening for millions of years this is nothing new or "accelerating" its just life on earth....@@giganigga9624
@@giganigga9624 Probably best if you don't make it the last time you say this.
I'm a driver for a flatbed company headquartered just south of Seward - been with them for 10 1/2 years. I've been trucking for almost 40 years, over half has been with Nebraska based companies. While I'm a Texan, Nebraska is second in my heart. I cried seeing the devastation caused by the floods the last several years.
Seeing this hurts.. Prayers for all.
Thank You Sir!! Hope you and yours are safe as well.. no matter where.
God Bless You 🙏🙏🙏

God Bless Nebraska!!!
Nebraska Strong.
GO BIG RED ♥️
The irony of a tornado traveling near a "Safety Starts Here" sign was not lost.
Good eye
Many of our neighbors here on the Iowa side of the Missouri River lost their homes today. This thing was massive.
🙏
First time I clearly heard one at the end. Amazing footage.
That was truly amazing. I, too haven't heard that before.
"Storm chaser followed the tornado despite repeated warnings from officials". No. Storm chasers followed the tornado BECAUSE OF repeated warnings from officials.... because.... that's what they do. LOL! And thank you all FOR doing it, and helping keep people informed and safe.
Mother Nature's Home! 🌪️🌪️🌪️🌪️
Less than 30 minutes away and houses are destroyed how insane! My phone was blaring all day
🙏
Terrifying!
Cuz you made them not concrete but from matches
My aunt’s house was slightly damaged but she said the neighbors house is half gone. They are counting their blessing tonight.
Glory to the most high
Prayers from Mississippi
I was in Lincoln Nebraska yesterday and I saw 3 and I also saw many people NOT taking shelter...they were looking and recording....i delivered a load to tractor supply in Waverly...
Sign says "Safety Starts Here" well it ends just down the road.
Sad day in Nebraska I hope everyone made thru the tornado outbreak hope prayers that's no lives were lost and no pets were lost thought and prayers Are with everyone tonight in Nebraska and Iowa hope everyone makes thru serve weather and tornado outbreak tonight so that said stay live stays safe God's bless everyone tonight 🙏
There are even more to come tomorrow. God bless us.
🙏
And Sunday. And tonight. Not looking forward to the night naders...
People parked/stopped under the overpass are idiots
It's LIKE watching TWISTER 😅
This is absolutely horrifying!!! My heart aches for everyone there.
Praying for each person in Nebraska. Life can be so uncertain !
How them prayers working for ya???
Thank you.
@@lagodifuoco313Very confusing, as these are “an act of god”!
@@lagodifuoco313we greatly appreciate them! Certainly more useful than your commentary.
@@lagodifuoco313 How is *not* praying working for you?
Prayers from Florida. Hurts to see this…
Thank you
Prayers? Who do you suppose sent this tornado hmm?
@@tamrielspirit3285 “The rain falls on the just and the unjust.” Try reading the Bible.
@tamrielspirit3285 was this comment necessary during an insanely stressful time of destruction? Is it really your job to interject your "faith shattering" comments just now? I don't know who you are, but please check your watch, bc this is not the time to be snarky, or say anything negative. Also, please grab a mirror and go do a thorough face-to-face introspection with yourself of your character bc your utter cruel and mean spirit needs readjusting. Blessings to you. I hope your angry spirit finds peace, bc a comment like yours says more about you than it does about some innocent person trying to find faith and hope in a trying moment.
Prayers from Houston
Like that's gonna do a damn thing.
Thank you ❤

And this is the baby end of things at waverly nebraska. It had just hit a business and collapsed with 70 inside
Really? That's horrible.
Good thing that cop was there to go in and stop the tornado
I saw that!! My thought was, "Where are you GOING, idiot??"
He was gonna arrest the twister for Jaywalking his highway
How can you stop a tornado?
It's a joke grandma
I hate to be that person, but the way the video is captioned makes it seem like there's a town called Lancaster. There isn't. Lancaster is the county that our capital, Lincoln, is in. This thing moved on the outskirts of Lincoln and hit Waverly, causing the roof of a warehouse to collapse and trap 70 people inside, as well as derail several train cars. That is the one in this video. Another hit Epply airport in Omaha and ripped up 4 hangers housing private aircraft. Another hit Elkhorn, an Omaha suburb, and flattened several blocks in a subdivision. Dozens, if not over a hundred, houses are damaged ranging from missing siding and beams to absolutely destroyed except for some foundation traces. It looks like a bomb went off. I would be very surprised if the one in Elkhorn wasn't at least an F4. Wind speeds were measured at 230 mph, it was over a mile in width, and it caused millions of dollars in damages. Those homes were all new and incredibly nice. If they were even on the cheaper end of the housing market right now at 300k per house, which I doubt they were as Elkhorn is a high priced area, well... Several blocks' worth of houses and were in the tens, if not hundreds of millions.
Captions on this clip "Storm chasers followed the tornado despite repeated warnings from officials". These guys are eyes and ears, warn of actual tornados on the ground and actual locations before the authorities. A lot break off to render assistance.
Prayer's for everyone there. Alit of brave people driving right into it.🙏
Can’t believe I went through these roads just a few hours before
I feel bad for your pain, inconvenience, and stress , for all the ones affected my deepest sympathy,❤❤ love from somewhere across the world
SO AWESOME!!!!!!! Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!! Glorious POWER!!!!!!!
Pretty cool to watch. Never understood why they build there.
I witnessed this firsthand in Northeast Lincoln. Saw the funnel cloud spinning like crazy right out to my east, almost felt like it was on top of me. I didn't get my phone out until it was on the ground though. Then the funnel dropped really quickly, become violent looking and hit a building right to my north. Craziest thing I've seen that close. Got a video once it was on the ground
So beautiful yet so damaging
Can’t imagine seeing that from their perspective, so terrifying.
I don't understand. Why drive towards a tornado!?
Probably a tornado chaser
Many people’s jobs depend on chasing tornados and studying them
people sins
Wait till people see the one by Omaha.
I live in Bellevue, southeast corner of omaha area and it was.....the Finger of God .
...
omg I thought you said Obama, haha
@@michaelvieregge2257 Ryan Hall yall spotters said a mile or more than a mile multiple times in this storm
@@fjs1111 same thing....nobody can afford to fix anything because of him
I am very thankful there wasn’t a tornado near me. We’ve been getting a lot of warnings/watches just in the past 2 weeks! None that have been near me for years though!
You literally spoke about what I'm going through right now 😮
That dosent look like its moving 50 miles an hour….just sitting there shredding everything for a long period of time
Incredible video
Watching from Virginia. Stay safe!
Saturday morning, (today) my wife and I went to check on our camper in Waverly. I didn't see any of the damage on tv. Driving on highway 6 was quite a mess. Metal debris laying along side the curb. Rail cars separated and on their sides. Steel girders ripped off a building along with most of the sheet metal.
May God Bless You All & Keep You Safe.❤🙏🏽
I hope everyone is ok.
No fatalities, but a lot lost their homes & over 10k lost power.
@@SasukesSausage Hopefully the Red Cross or some other organization will take donations so we can help out in some way. Do you know of a local group that will take a donation via credit card or check? Thanks.
@dhh488 not that I know of. I'm assuming the mayor or someone with power might do some type of donations at some point because 6-10 tornados hit everywhere in NE Friday. Even our airport got some heavy damage. Nature is beautiful & brutal unfortunately 🥲
I always heard if you are driving get out of car and into nearest ditch.
New advice is to stay in the car and drive away from the tornado, I think I would pass on the ditch idea. 🤣
incredible footage
Remember when you see a tornado drive straight into it with your phone in your hand.
I don't believe the guy was driving INTO the tornado ....
That cop knows he can’t arrest that tornado right?
Praying everyone is ok I've been in 2 tornados myself very scary
That one vehicle was goin towards the tornado as it were a fire truck puttin out a fire 😂
So powerfull !
Absolutely spectaculat footage.
you missed the HUGE multi vortext one they were chasing last night as well, that one lasted SO long i don't think they know how much damage it did, conner was chasing it for a good while until it hit a town and he had to go do S&R
I absolutely have never seen video footage as we have for these storms until now. Seen several aftermaths of destruction , so many people were so close to thee tornados and risked their lives to take these.
9 pm Des Moines being hit.
Praying for the tornado
Prayers from Milwaukee ❤
WOW !!!
Recorded horizontally:)
A reminder of how powerful nature is and how weak we are.
Correction: *how powerful God is and how weak we are
@@cg5491 I agree!
What a monster
All the money to Ukraine, Taiwan and Israel, and now no money to repair all tornadoes tragedy
Prayers from MO
Hopefully everyone ok
Great footage. Better than Hollywood.
Sending prayers
I live near omaha, this was horrifying.
Been there done that. No thanks. However 2 years ago I built a shelter for a friend. It’s not cheap but you will live for sure.
Must be springtime in tornado alley. There are so many cellphones nowadays, nothing goes unnoticed.
Terrifying
JESUS be with them excellent prayer!!!
Violent rotation, could be an EF 4 :(
Definitely need a tornado section of the Academy Awards. Oscars to be given both living and posthumous.
That looks scary 😮
It looks so supernatural. Like some extra terrestrial activity
I hope no one got hurt.
Sweetwater , Tx. 1986 .
Tornados are a crazy sight to behold no matter what era.
bro risked his life to record this
Them big twisters were not playing
Springtime in the plains. This is why the US has a storm spotter system. We help save lives by observing and reporting storms such as these to the National Weather Service so the NWS can get updated warnings out to the public so the public has more time to prepare before a storm of this kind of magnitude impacts a specific area.
Certified Skywarn Storm Spotter.
Today was a BIG deal! Almost everything that blew up was tornadic…
That’s a big one and praying for everyone ❤
Hats off to the T-chasers..very brave, without them we cannot watch such Videos. God bless U all .🙏🏻
😢 it sounded like it was just chewing up everything, a monster tornadoe 😢
Hope everybody ok
Cop like I’m going to to arrest the tornado tornado you have the right to remain silent
Probably an highend ef3 or ef4
That looks like a drill bit
Solid EF-3
Wow I always thought tornado comes with rain
We here chilling in Grand island nebraska
I'll never understand how anyone can live there.
A lot of battles going on be safe
Very scary.
Prayers from Texas.
I hope everyone is in their basements safe
Amazing
