The sound of a tornado siren is the distance is absolutley horrific.
DoctorWhoFan10 yes , it was a frightening and surreal experience. Checking into that hotel knowing a possible tornado was close by , but not being able to see it was nerve racking. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I grew up during the 'duck and cover' years of the Cold War and even hearing them so many years later leaves my blood running cold.
But it's times like those, that tells you what it means to be alive.
could be a 2 or 3t22 (they sound alike but 3t22 has solenoids)
blaqkavdio listen to the sirens in downtown Wisconsin (I think that's it)
That constant barrage of lightning non-stop tells the whole story. I don’t think I’ve ever seen lightning that frequent in person... ever!
Nor hear that crack-sounding thunder! I've seen constant lightning here in phoenix AZ during our monsoon season storms.
I'd hate being in a tornado warning at night..
Happens to me all the time. I hate it.
The only ones I've ever experienced have been in the middle of the night. Like 1 in the morning. The sirens always wake me up and then there's so much wind and lightning. It's so scary. Every time I hear the sirens being tested, it makes me think about those terrifying nights.
If the tornado sirens wake you up at night, Amazing! They are designed to do that, Even if its a test, It gets you prepared.
It's definitely a good thing! It's just the scariest alarm clock ever. The one I always heard was about a mile and a half away so it had just the right volume and tone to make it sound so eerie. Nighttime just made it worse.
me too
This video is so surreal to me but I love it. The eerie distant tornado siren, the crazy thunderbolt at 3:56, the possible tornado sound at 6:50 -ish and the emergency alert system at 7:15. Great capture! I can only feel grateful we don't have these sorts of storms here in the UK.
at 6:50 it might have been a tornado because it sounded like a freight train or a plane or some sort of roaring
@@DTOG33_2.0 I hear only thunder...
@forgaven3346 That "thunder" sound was continous for a good considerable amount of time
@forgaven3346 if you had headphones on then you would clearly hear the jet-like rumbling sound (clearly how a tornado exactly sounds)
@@DTOG33_2.0 it's scary..
I hate tornados at night because you can't see nothing only when the lighting strikes
ya that's the scary part
yes its real scary and unpredictable.
Their no better in the day either
@@jonimichalski9193 They are, you can see them or at least their wain wall. But at night, you cant see shit unless a lightning flashes, and not even that, its not enough time to identify its location or it's rain wall.
Legit this is on the top 5 things that scare me the most it ties with having a night i decide to heavily or hard and i dont hear anything then get sucked out of my home
Lesson for viewers: frequent lightning (i.e. multiple flashes per second) often accompany tornadoes. If you are experiencing very frequent lightning while a tornado warning is in effect, there probably IS an actual tornado nearby.
BS. we get that much lightning in monsoon storms sometimes here in Phoenix but they also cause microbursts..rarely any tornadoes
3:13 "this storm is out of control" ..... who allowed that to happen? He's fired.
I would love to have been there in a rocking chair outside with a nice cuppa watching it.
You are crazy if you would do that. But it would be cool though. You can only do that if the tornado is in the safe distance.
:/
Usually when we see lighting that frequent, there is a tornado somewhere, usually they hit in the county. Meridian always gets lucky. They say it has to do with the terrain that causes them to bounce over the city. I think they've just been lucky so far. If I lived in the city, I would have a safe room because you cant be that lucky forever.
Now THAT'S a storm..
Sara Carter I agree

I agree too
I'm addicted to these types of videos. Nice work, BTW.
News guy: You need to be in a safe place
*Listens*
*Goes outside anyways*
Holy! Even as a Floridian, I have never seen that much lightning in one storm!
Reminds me of the time my uncle was driving truck to a Lowe’s just 2 minutes prior tornado hit it n sirens still blaring he is a veteran n said that’s the scariest thing he’s ever been thru.
3:56 that happens rarely if you record.
I frequently go to Kansas and have seen these kind of storms. They are really something that is very impressive!
Could be my OCD, but I love how centered the TV is on that stand 🤣🤣🤷♂️
3:24 With all of that chaos going on, it's already intimidating enough. Add on that house alarm in the distance, and it raises hairs.
We got hit by this same line of storms in the Florida Panhandle a couple days later. We got 15 inches of rain in 9 hours, (Pensacola got 26 in 25 hours, with 5.68" of it falling in only one hour), tornado warnings, extreme flash flooding, the most insane lightning I've ever seen in my life (and that's saying something considering Florida's the lightning capital of the US). At one point, the lightning was so intense, it confused the streetlights into thinking it was daylight (it was about 4:00 in the morning...it happened twice within 20 minutes actually), and the thunder was quite literally constant. It was quite the night...easily the craziest thunderstorm I've ever been in. Glad y'all are safe...nobody in the South was spared from the fury of Mother Nature over those few days.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
3:56, Gorgeous lightning strike!
Thanks , yeah it scared the crap out of me though. It was closer than it appeared in the video.
From what it looks like in the video that it hits like an antenna about a couple hundred meters away...we get lightning like that here in the UK....and being close to a distribution station does give the hackles on my back to stand in end when there is CG lightning about! I love the video...keep them coming. :3
+Travels & Chases I've had that happen to me but real close I was in the window video taping and we have a pole with wires and stuff and lighting hit that and it was so bright and loud >.< my grandpa almost got blinded when he was looking out the window.
That scared me out of my skin that lightning bolt shooting across the sky
We had flashes like that in cookeville tn with the ef4. It was a loud tornado. Ive never heard one not like that. But I thought the lightening was power flashes continuing bc there was definately a tornado on the ground
I was stationed at the NAS Meridan, MS Naval base in Oct/1988. I remember watching the storm and the lightning shooting all the way from one end of the city to the other. The entire sky was filled with rain and lightning like I had never seen before. increadible!!
Roberto Tamil yup , those storms in what we stormchasers refer to as "DixieAlley" can be out of this world!
Roberto Tamil do u Know Maj High Power he was my Dad
Well, I’m sure that if I can spell incredible, you can as “an adult who was stationed”.
Those damn night twisters are nightmare material.Cant see them until they are on you.
My friend was there at the time. He said he was sleeping peacefully when the EAS came on. He was scared senseless. I mean, who doesn't get scared at that "BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP" sound the alert makes when it first comes on,
SomeRandomAE86Trueno your friéndoles has died???😱😱😱
Great video. I loved that strike
Tornadoes are extremely scary, even more so at night when you can't see where they are, I was just curious of what hotel you were at and the road or interstate it was on when you filmed all this.
I always come back to this video every time I want to relax.
Great lightening strike and thunder at 3:57. Awesome. But it always sounds so much better in person. Thanks for sharing!
I remember I was there in Mississippi for my grandma's brothers funeral when this happened. Damn it was scary. Especially in a hotel room when the storm had hit.
The tornado sirens sounded like they were harmonizing
Erich Diebold the siren actually has 2 sets of cones on it that play 2 different notes and they do harmonize. It's a 2T22 or something to that effect.
@@troshs I guess those notes are D5 and F5, although it reminds me of a B-flat Major chord.
Sounds like eerie music or something
I wish people didnt get hurt, killed, or have their lives destroyed by these things because they are really, really fascinating and exciting.
The most eerie thing about a Tornado warning is hearing the sirens in the distance while the weather is calm
you can hear it at the 6:40 mark
Jesusmetalhead Wow , never realized that. Thanks for pointing it out. That's crazy !
Travels & Chases great video man :) 1 sub
saynomore485 thanks !
@Chris FLA 321 i heard it too omg
All I heard was the rumbling of thunder ...
I can see the tornado warning message on the telly reminding everyone living in the area of Mississippi about the dangerous weather is approaching fast and warns everyone to move away from the windows of the house and the vehicle and move to the nearest building as possible
that was some really good video you got there DTRAVELZ.... i really liked that lightning, very good video, thanks for sharing with us here on youtube,
Severe weather is scary. In Texas, we recently had a severe winter storm. We get Severe Thunderstorms and Tornadoes as well. Off the coast of Texas, Hurricanes can form as well.
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
We had a tornado warning in Leavenworth ks 8 years ago and it lasted for 3 hours it was the scariest storm I've ever seen
Wow. I was about 7 years old during this. I probably had no clue. But I live in Meridian, Mississippi!
I was 28 at the time and I was in the area heading from Forest MS but I had no clue who was in the white GMC van in front of me until I viewed the two videos captured on the same night 10 years ago. I stayed in a Marriott hotel near this other hotel that’s seen in this video and I was drenched in water from all the rain that poured down on us and it was indeed out of control. I was the time I was in the Marriott hotel I was on spring vacation and so my girlfriend at the time and my three children checked into the hotel and then I went to go park my car and the rain was so cold and I was so wet that after running into the hotel I had to take a warm shower to warm up and then change into my night shirt and pants with my night cap. The tornado completely missed us and we looked on the news the next day to see what happened and we get confirmation that multiple homes were totaled and many lives were lost that night and so I hope your family knew what to do in the event of a very strong storm like this when you were 7 at the time
We rarely get Thunderstorms of this intensity and tornadoes are even more rare. Last one was in 2006 and caused a huge tree to fall on our garage. Though we do get massive rainstorms one had wind speeds of 93 mph. Lots of tree damage and power outages. Snowstorms and Blizzards are real danger here, dropping up to 3 feet of snow.
just another evening in the south...you should visit more.
I love coming to the south. Was just in New Orleans this weekend. didn't get any storms though. Thanks for watching. However that was not just another storm . This was the same day tornadoes ravaged Louisville MS and Tupelo.
Allena Purcell welcome to the south! 😂😂
On today's agenda, you have possible death and thunderstorms
@@TravelsChases are tornadoes rare
I wish I could see this in person. I love storms so much.
I thought so too until I saw an EF 4 rip thru my city on memorial day and I knew there was nothing I could do but watch in horror
My hometown 🙏🏾 I know it’s an old video! But I remember a many of close calls with tornadoes.......
Great catch! The audio in this video is excellent! Great job.
I live in Meridian, but I use to live in Lawton, Oklahoma... but one never get used to this.... you just deal with it...
+Lenray Gandy Both towns are susceptible to tornadoes. They seem to be harder to see coming in Mississippi though because of the dense forested area. Oklahoma has much wider open spaces so visibility is better
I live close to Lawton
And you must have a weather alert alarm on your nightstand lol
03:56 WOW! Awesome lightning! Very nice footage! Greetings from the Netherlands!
How did you get to Meridian MS so fast?
3:56
Lightning: (attacks the siren but fails)
2T22: hahahaha, I'am alive, get out
When you have that much lightning you will be able to see the wedge tornado particularly at night, when the tornado is rain wrapped then they are tough to see but it doesn't mean it's not there ready to hit a particular area.
That siren sound terrifying one time I’ll see a rotating storm at a hotel
thats exactly how the lightning was in the 1988 Raleigh NC tornado that I was in as a kid. It was so constant it was like a strobelight, it happened at 1am and I could see outside because of the lightning.
The sirens In This video where pretty calming for me they don’t sound like a serious siren but it’s probably because the wind trying to wrap around the noise and they are 3t22 sirens
That’s so frightening especially at night when u see the lightning in the distance and the tornado siren going off
were you there for training with a trucking company?
Gosh, what a night! o__o The power of these storms is staggering...I'll never forget the first tornado warning I ever experienced, I thought I was gonna die from fright, lol (and that was in Forida where the big ones don't even hit...)
I live in Alabama, and they can get HUGE! Fun fact: Alabama and Oklahoma are tied for the most F/EF5 tornadoes.
I'm from Mobile Alabama. We had a Christmas day tornado in 2012. It was a monster
Much respect to you guys, I don’t think I have the constitution to live in Alabama
You've pieced together a very neat, coherent narrative, the actual storm interspersed with the the newscasts. Nicely done!
Thanks , that's what I was actually attempting to do although it was kind of nerve racking knowing a tornado might of been very close but we couldn't see it Yes , I was nervous lol. Thanks for watching and posting.
I love this type of weather
Nice quality and not so shaky. Not bad :/
Thanks , thanks for watching. It was some storm.
I've never been in a tornado nor seen 1 first hand. I have seen some minor damage that was from little tornados. However I've never heard a air raid siren nor I have I ever seen so much lightning from a storm as I have just watched here. Absolutely amazing.. I've been in several hurricanes and even those aren't as scary as watching storms like these.. only thing about hurricanes is the continuous 120+ mph winds for hrs
The truck driver at 0:10 is like "Fuck this I'm outta here"
I live in eastern Pennsylvania and, about a year or so ago, we had a supercell pass to our north over the Poconos. I do believe that it was tornado warned but I can't remember for sure. However, I have never seen lightning like that and it always seem to hit right in the same area. It was unbelievable! I saw on the news later that there were reports of a wall cloud in Stroudsburg, PA. Our area, Easton, PA, got hit by a severe thunderstorm a couple of hours later. BTW, great job filming this! That lightning is amazing!!
Yes , I remember last October Pennsylvania did have a tornado outbreak . Glad you enjoyed this video . Hopefully more vids to come next April and May when I chase again
I LIVE IN EASTEM
Cool. Im Coatesville PA.
what a storm brilliant footage and the lightning was awesome sounded like bombs going off on some bolts how long did the storm last for.once again brilliant video mate
Thanks for watching and commenting. It was late in the evening on what had turned out to be a very destructive day in Mississippi.(April 28, 2014) There was a tornado outbreak , and multiple tornadoes wrecked havoc in that state. This particular set of storms went on for quite some time . Multiple hours.
my first tornado warning experience was at a hotel when I was 4 did not know what a tornado was I live in CA and was visiting KY and they don't have tornados in California
There is more lightning in this video than Eugene Oregon has experienced in the last ten years
Edit... in forever.
3:57 that almost scared me
It DID scare me when it happened in person lol. Thanks for watching . Hope you enjoyed it
same here
Me too
As dangerous tornados can be but this is beautiful to watch I would love a lightning storm like this here in California. But not the tornado guess were stuck with earthquakes
How far was the tornado from your hotel?
I've had a few tornado warrning this year and I was going to my violin lesson for one of them I've alson been having some thiunder storms almost every day but they mostly breakup because I live one mile from winnobago lake. But still I was at Ceader Point in Ohio for one and that was sooo scary because the hotel that we stayed in had lots of windows and we were out on the waters edge. There was a touch down but it was in the city Herion.
You guys had alerts triggered on your phones too?
Man you definitely don't ever get storms like that here in Washington. Whenever we get a thunderstorms it's like 2 minutes between each lightning flash. Feels like I'm missing out a bit lol
So many lightning flashes!!!!
this is my hometown and that particular day was one for the ages. we get spring thunderstorms like this a lot but rarely get any tornadoes from them just lots of rotation but hardly ever touchdowns. meridian sits in a valley so usually the rotating wall clouds just roll over us and form some tornadoes after crossing into alabama as did this day from philadelphia to tuscalosa. im sure you all know about that tornado very well
I remember the Philadelphia / Tuscaloosa outbreak day very well. We were chasing storms in Central M.S. that day as well , and witnessed 2 back to back monster twisters almost half an hour apart. Ironically that day was April 27, 2011. This video I recorded here in Meridian was on April 28 , 2014. You live in a region that chasers call "Dixie Alley" , and when outbreaks occur boy does it get wild. One this particular day we witnessed what happened in Louisville. We did our best to help the people that suffered so much that day with what little we could do at the time. In my opinion tornadoes can be much deadlier in the SouthEast than in Oklahoma and Kansas , because it is much more forested , and people may not see them until it is too late. Also , storms like these tend to travel much faster in your region than in the west.
Thanks for watching , and posting.
thanks for the footage, and hopefully one day ill get to fulfill my dream of chasing the most fasinating phenom known to man, tornadoes!!!
KEVIN SPENCER Speak of the devil. You have a TORNADO heading right towards the western part of Meridian MS RIGHT NOW. I'm posting this at 3;18 pm (M.S. Time) On Jan 3rd. Hope all goes well. Be careful. These storms have heavy precip and any tornado may be rain wrapped. Take siren warnings seriously.
m shake man!
Greetings from Argentina, I once had to become in my life (4-4-12) and so far I can take my fear, I feel sorry as you experience These horrific and terrifying disaster.
CubeX-Games Thanks
Rain wrapped tornadoes are always the worst because you can’t see it
Ok i know it's just me and a peeve but are you air conditioning the parking lot or flood the room?
In or out man pick a place and close the door
7:22 scared me I hate the like purge tv thing but it's said stay away from a fricking door and he's stood right at the door
When we get woke up for a tornado warning, we see which direction it's going. If it's going away from us, we are not getting out of bed. If it's coming close to us, we will see if it's going to make a turn away from us (usually does) and then go back to bed.
That same storm came through Jackson Mississippi
When lightning's that constant and positive its gonna be a hell of a storm.
One night i was coming home from KFC and saw that constant lighting At that time I didn't know anything about tornados, storms etc, but now I do and anyway I was really scared I've been In about 8 tornados before so I should know about stuff like that
I remember watching a tornado form in the distance as the sky turned black illuminated by the orange and red sun peering through like a tunnel. Roaring whales and gasps from the wind as the rain beat the windows like drums, the Sirens sounding like the Stuka Siren on the Blitzkrieg Bomber's. Everyone was still as I whipped my astonished face towards the window, as a seething amazement rushed over the adults and Teachers and with the snap of thunder became still, silent. They rushed us to the bathrooms where we waited and waited and waited for what seem like hours our elbows, forearms, knees and shins glued to the tile, freshly cleaned floor our backs, up to the ceiling where we could hear the rain die off as with the wind. A knot had formed in each of our stomachs with pure worries and doubts, happiness and sadness.
Suddenly the gouging screaming of the wind and the bangs and cracks of the rain. came back in waves as the Sirens stopped. We were safe.
I'm not sure but I think I could hear a thunderbolt or some other siren.
iamdxpe ok
The song of death that the XT22's in the distance are singing is haunting
Also very nice sounding 2T22/3T22 sirens
I can see the weather man live on tv informing everyone living in the area that the tornado maybe coming over this way
I remember this night! I live about 3 or 4 miles east from this motel!
i live in meridian mississippi i go by that hotel everyday
i live north of meridian between lauderdale and neshoba county lines i was home and trying to cook dinner when that storm system came through
Lol great video of my hometown 💜 come back anytime
Those tornado warning sirens remind me of the Cold War.
Any alert get in effect on my LGtv
I remember this I was at my grandparents house when it hit. We were all in the hallway when the sirens went off. Scary night for all of us.
That will be so petrifying especially for the tornado somewhere near or further to u
Is that red rof inn?
What app is that?
3:57 That lightning bolt was mad
That storm is sooooo scary as crap. We had a Ef1 rope tornado in Roswell. It wasn't as bad as that scary storm. At night you can't see the funnel cloud just the scary deadly lightning. Then I saw that lightning bolt it was 20 feet from you
What hotel were u at
The emergency outdoor warning siren sounds like a FS Thunderbolt 1000T.
Just noticed that the lights suddenly plugged off already have you noticed it Sir
No I didnt notice? What time stamp was that at?
At 4.44
what time did you record this video
it was filmed on and off approxomitley between 8:30 and 9:50 pm
okay
So, was your hair standing up during that storm? With all that lightning, it's hard for it not to be. And to add on a tornado nearby.
It was definitley a wild night weather wise
where was this in
