I beg y'all not come down to Lubbock!!! Y'all are lucky getting pics of nerders and it ain't gonna be lucky for us that live here. I loved severe weather because I was born in Cebu Philippines where typhoons we're common. When I moved to NY was fascinated with nerders thanks to storm stories. But never in my wildest dreams that I would end up living in Lubbock, Tornado Alley, Texas. I blame the US Army, TDCJ, & myself for falling for a man in uniform.😏
Unlike those other YT jerks that screamed at a car that was pulled over on the side of the road during a tornado event, "YOU'RE IN THE FKN SHOT!" Poor people were probably so scared all they may have heard through all the noise was "You're gonna get shot!" They took off so fast.
I lived a few towns over in Lubbock and hearing about this at the time was SO SCARY but seeing it form and move live is pretty amazing!! Thanks for showing this monster on camera!
@@AnonBiscuit Because California has floods, droughts, Earth quakes, mud slides, and unending forest fires? The east coast has the same things. I used to live in El Paso, and the sun shines a lot, but sand storms, surprising snowstorms, flash floods, and be escaping the sand that sneaked into the house every night was a pain. However, I still love the Lone Star State. Bigger, better, hotter, colder, dryer, wetter, and all that went with living there. Ever eaten Texas Burger? Tastier than any other state offers.Buenos noches, senor.
That tornado is like the El Reno, 2013 tornado in that it becomes multiple-vortex the moment it touches ground, and becomes a super-wedge within a minute and a half after touchdown.
Only difference I'm seeing is that this is beautiful and ominous, whereas the El Reno tornado was just straight up terrifying to look at. El Reno just looked like an apocalypse
Beautifully captured. I wish more people would stay in their vehicles like you. It’s smart, and you demonstrated how well fantastic video (and no doubt great photos) can be taken out a window.
I live about 30mins from here! Glad the storm changed directions! Thankful to be setting here this morning watching this beautiful storm! Thank you for sharing!!!
First this was the coolest and most beautiful Tornado I’ve ever seen in my entire life. To see the vast amount of detail and mechanics of it all is an absolutely amazing to watch. I want to give credit where credit is due. The man that captured and documented this ginormous tornado. This is the BEST footage of a tornado I’ve ever seen in my life! I loved how you’ve captured this storm that almost produced 2 tornadoes, but it was only able to create just 1. Watching this from the beginning of it creation and quickly becoming a monster was scary and beautiful. This was dramatic on a high level. WOW just WOW!!
Is it just me or was this tornado seemingly peaceful? Not the violent rotation that we often see, just kind of moseying along at a snails pace on open land while showing off its incredible looking structure. Awesome video!
@@randomentertainment8927 You missed the point, I’m talking about tornadoes in general destroys lives, not everybody thinks a tornado looks beautiful, I think it looks like death and destruction when I see one, and I’m thinking oh Lord who is about to die who’s house is about to get destroyed, because I live 6 miles from Andover right in the middle of a tornado alley I do service work at their schools my boss lives in Andover,and I’ve seen many lives taken and many people loose everything they own, I don’t like tornadoes in the least not fascinating just scary.
@@sambell385 I know that. I was saying this one in particular is beautiful. I've seen the power of one too. My hometown was hit hard by an EF-4 the day after Christmas one year. And an area close to me was hit hard by an EF-3 near Halloween another year. Those become terrifying. But when they're in the middle of nowhere, not hurting anyone, they can be beautiful
@@sambell385 I have lived through a couple, or more. Not pleasant from any of my recollections, but I do pray for people in harms way. I have enough respect for nature to stay out of its way, and pray.
Woah just woah! Since I was little I loved watching storms with my mom. Just the thought of being a storm chaser like you would be a dream to me. Keep up the good work and be carful!
This is good training right here this video.. it shows first and foremost that you NEVER, EVER, assume the entire tornado is visible with that little drill bit at the beginning. It WAS ALREADY a half mile wide wedge at that point. But touching down in the dry line, even a dry RFD feeding it made the visible condensation funnel not tell the whole potentially deadly story. It was when it hit the dust field that it's true form became quickly known. So please SPOTTERS, never trust a tornado!!! Always assume the wind field is at least as wide as the base (wall cloud), thats how El Reno 2013 almost gobbled up everybody , the little carosel of funnels is a good photo op. Unless the actual tornado is already on top of you... Good catch dude.
It's really awesome that I'm able to watch these outstanding videos of tornadoes from a country that barely get any at all (Australia), thankyou! I really enjoyed this one
I have lived in Texas all of my life and (having seen countless tornados mostly in news and videos thank God) this is the scariest footage of one I have ever seen.
The amount of stored energy and release of this energy at the same time being condensed as a structure and then being able to follow and witness this energy is really really humbling and scary.
@@kermit56780 That be a picture 🖼️ and video 📸 worth trillions of dollars 💵 a once in a lifetime that I never lose but I'm a skinny guy that got blow 🌬️ away by 60 mph winds so I'm sure I would get suck away by a tornado 🌪️ like that easily 😂😱🤣.
@@kermit56780 Filmaker Sean Casey and the TIV (Tornado Intercept Vehicle) did just that in 2011. He built 2 vehicles. IV 1 in 2003, and TIV 2 in 2007. Tiv 2 was the one used to make the film. The resulting IMAX film was titled "Tornado Alley" and released in 2011. It was really awe-inspiring, seeing up inside a tornado. Hopefully you'll be able to find it playing somewhere, or find a copy of it.
This is the biggest and scariest tornado I’ve seen recorded. I live in tornado alley and two tornadoes hit our city within a few years of each other. That was scary!!!
I've seen this phenomenon myself, where I live at one edge of Tornado Alley. Not a big wedge, it started over me as mammocumulus with evil looking, dark, greenish clouds lit from behind, and thin ghostly white whisps flying by at a lower altitude, all that stuff. And it's true: it sounded like a freight train once it descended into a tornado. And just like this video, I pulled over to the side of the freeway, got out, told a few drivers what they were watching, all very excited... every other driver had gotten out following me like lemmings to the sea, wondering what I was looking at. LOL! No ditches to get into, was near the foothills of mountains. I didn't even drive under the nearest overpass. I didn't know **** about safety back then. As the cold front passed over me I had to reach through the driver's window and grab onto my steering wheel. Sudden change in temp... All very exciting, powerful. Saw it take off the roof of a church north of us. Debris flying. I wasn't careful and didn't know much yet about extreme weather. But for people who live in Tornado Alley, it isn't so exciting, it's deadly. One thing I've always wondered about. For those who live where this happens often, why don't people build underground homes, with the front wall of the house open for natural light, at ground level, grass for s roof which would also regulate temperature and collect rainwater for free... or what about round-walled houses which allow wind to pass by more effectively? Those ideas are already applied to new super skyscrapers. The only reason I can think of, is tradition, or that the home they buy is already built long ago. But they keep building or replacing destroyed homes with the same square box model. Why? I'm not an architect, but surely those wouldn't cost more than traditional boxes, and tornado insurance would go down... skylight tubes would provide even more light and cross-ventilation... it wouldn't be claustrophobic. I'm uneducated in this field, so what am I missing?
It's big, awesome and beautiful. But realistically a lot of it's size is due to all the dust particles it's sucking up. It's probably about half the size it appears, lost in that cloud of dust.
This is unbelievably good footage, thank you so much for getting a great picture and keeping it totally steady. Fantastic work, that thing is absolutely amazing. Really excellent, keep up the great work.
The only way to describe this video is jaw dropping. And I have seen them all. 2% or not you found your way to a lifetime opportunity and let the storm speak for itself. Bravo!
Incorrect. Other footage from closer shows this tornado with multiple strong subvortices. Likely a very violent tornado. If it hit town would likely be MINIMUM of high end EF-3 if not EF-4 or higher
it only seems this way because there are no structures nearby. as the person above me said, had this tornado been in a more highly populated area then it would’ve caused significant damage.
amazing and terrifying. its always amazing to see them out in the open like this. Im in Georgia, and usually you never even see them here. they tend to be soo heavily rain wrapped that a clear view like this is RARE..
I lived in Atl. For a while, some years ago. One hit West End. Did little damage. I once heard a man say that he thought Atlanta was so well constructed a tornado wouldn't hurt it. Was he smart, or what?
Is there an "event horizon" or clear perimeter of a tornado like this that cannot be crossed? How close can one get to it without being thrown into the wind?
99% of the time these pro tornado chasers know what they're doing and don't get hurt. It's usually amateurs that end up making a mistake that costs them.
That just looks...otherworldly. Approaching this monstrosity on these endless plains, that is so large that although you drive and drive and drive, you just don't even seem to get any closer at all...man. So alien.
Was there at Morton with silver lining tours on a ten day vacation. My first mothership supercell and wedge tornado. Very impressive storm. So much dusty inflow due to the bad drought so the storm was like a huge vacuum cleaner sucking in all the dust.
The sub-vortices or satellites seen at the end reminds me of the 2013 El Reno monster tornado that looked similar to that towards the end of it's life. Awesome footage!

Life is full of risks, deciding which ones to take is a balance of managing the danger while enriching your experience.
I see from the footage that a great indicator of a tornado nearby is a van with 8 people all wearing the same t-shirts.

Holy crap!? That is one beast of a tornado thx for recording! 😶
