Yea I can agree we had a tornado really close to my house and my cat meows really loud and that sounded scarier than the tornado lel 😂 but it was still really scary
I am very thankful these people (and the cat) got out safely. But that tornadoshelter would not do any protection with a big (>EF3) tornado. My biggest concern however was the big propane tank next to the shelter.
OdysseusCentral yep also thpse power lines and that propane tank are a little worrying not to long ago in moore a power line fell near one and boom then a massive fire tornados are nothing to deal with theyve killed many people
Panda #44 Yeah, it's not like tornados are actually known for picking up cars or anything. Oh wait, they pick things up and throw them around all the fucking time.
There was no tornado in this video and there was no funnel cloud he wasn't even in the right part of the storm. Nothing that took place in this video has anything remotely to do with a tornado. Even the color the storm has not one tiny thing to do with a tornado that's all about light refraction on the front edge of the storm and tornadoes are on the back.
@@daoofpotato7238 nope....nope you have have not. Maybe you lack of experience so you not understand the difference between a rear flank downdraft and clear air but nevertheless tornadoes do not form in sunny weather! Now if you're sitting on the beach in Miami and suddenly there's a water spot out there that's a total different thing the true tornadoes on the plains form in the same place pretty much every time.
The freight train is a tornado. That noise gives me the chills. Same storm, same thing at my place that day. Lost the silo roof, moved it a bit. That was all thank God.
@@War1109 The idea of a tornado sounding like a train comes from the age of steam locomotives. It sounds like the whooshing hiss and thrum of good old mighty steam power, sometimes even the whistle, but most of all the sound of the wheels grinding as they roll under the heavy weight of hundreds of tons of steel that is also pushing a huge air mass out of the way on the flat front of the train, which coincidentally is true for modern locomotives as well (keep in mind a bullet train or aerodynamic maglev is not in the same class of train). Imagine millions of locusts buzzing or thousands of cannons cooking off in sequence, a dull but loud and constant roar of power and noise and sheer atmospheric majesty.
@@Avetho thank you, and so in conclusion people should not be comparing tornadoes to the sound of a freight train since NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD AN ACTUAL FREIGHT TRAIN.
i’m just sitting in my bed, eating cereal, straight out of the bag, watching this video. absolutely riveting stuff, lads. edit: man i miss existing a year ago :(
I've seen tornadoes in person that came up on us out of nowhere when we were working. It went from sunny to a downpour in seconds. And then for a minute it was just deathly silent, then it sounded like I was laying on the train tracks as a train went by. It was deafeningly loud and grass and leaves and tree branches were flying all over the place. Probably the scariest experience of my life.
Glad y'all are ok but your storm shelter may need to be moved I wouldn't feel to safe with a propane tank that close with electric lines right above that's like a big bomb waiting for the right storm
Exactly what I was going to say... propane is heavier than air as well, so if there was a leak caused by the storm and debris blocked the exit so you were stuck down there, yall could easily asphyxiate and die due to air displacement... even if it didn't explode or catch fire. More than a few guys passed out or even died due to freon, which is also heavier than air, sinking to the floor of the shop and filling up the grease pit, displacing all the air and gassing whoever was working down in it at the time... (back in the old days when you could vent freon to the air... Not exactly like you can pick the thing up and move it, but I'd think twice about sheltering in there... I think you'd be better off in your basement of the house... Just throwing that you for yall to think about... Better to think about it before than have regrets afterwards... Later! OL J R :)
bryce not the tornado they stuff thrown by it for example a tube hits the tank putting a hole in it then a power line makes a spark BOOOOOOM theres an explosion
I was in the 1967 tornado that hit Belvidere Illinois. A lot of people died. After the storm, what I remember most was huge oak trees sticking out root first from the 3rd and 4th stories of the hospital windows, a horse up in a tree impaled by lumber, dead cattle and debris everywhere, and the sirens. Lucky for us we just lost part of our roof and the car (didn't have a garage). Now THAT was scary!
take a storm spotter class helps you to understand what they saying and what you are seeing... didnt see anything that was really serious.... the national weather service has an internal debate whether to issue the warning to much and risk "crying wolf" or not enough amd actually miss one warning for real
Though I live in Colorado now, I grew up in central Illinois. Seen those green skies a few times in my life. Not much gets me on edge, but that green sky does it every time. Good to see everyone is okay and everything is intact.
Are you guys ok? Tornados aint somthing to joke around. And I know you werent joking around so dont take that threatening. I think we are supposed to get that storm later on. Take care.
Buck Hunter sounds like this is the one that hit a few wks ago bc McGregor, across from Prarie, did get a tornado. It was a bad storm. Ryan was sure smarter than us, we didn't take shelter like we should have.
Hurricane Ivan passed right over my house, and it sounded like a 747 on maximum engine setting, was circling over me. The eye is TRUE, within 2 minutes of the eye-wall passing, dead calm, then a wait of about 10 minutes till the other side came over.
North Texas does get pretty green when we see tornados. Take a storm spotter class and pick up a ham radio, you can listen to your local skywarn spotters and get information before it is broadcast from the NWS. If you get a license you can spot for the skywarn groups.
One of my favorite storm videos, probably. Feels pretty familiar as a Midwesterner, also a nice clear shot of the green sky approaching. My mom was super close to the 11/17/13 tornado in Kokomo, IN and said it sounded like a really deep roll of thunder that never stopped. In 2016 I was at her new place out in the country and one passed probably a mile in front of her house... there was just this giant group of black clouds rotating and it missed my old hometown by a few miles. It was rain-wrapped so the funnel wasn't very visible, but that giant vortex up in the sky was telling and scary enough. Anyway, glad it didn't hit you guys too badly (and I'm glad the kitty is okay!)
Hey look up project HARRP for the strange weather and noise you seen and heard. Enjoyed the tractor drive 😂😂👍👍 will check out your other posts. Cheers WFE 👌
Ya know what the sound was ??? It was the electric current going through the wires right above your shelter !!!! What else , a phropane tank by your enterance . And water coming in . If a power line breaks and hits the ground , what do you think will happen ? Please. move your shelter away from power lines .
Ive seen so many wall clouds roll over by us in central Minnesota, we've had tornados roll through south if us. After really bad storms the sky always turns a strange color, usually orange or greene, that means its over, but it also mean the storm was powerful
Thanks for sharing the video.. Went from farmer to storm chaser for a few.. By the way had a tornado come very near to me once also and the sound you mimicked sounds just like it did... a pulsating "high and low" pitch, glad you got out unscathed this time.
Saw the green Sky once when I moved to Arizona, rain was coming down straight then suddenly went sideways and we all went into the basement. Tornado brushed by a trailer park right next to us ( the only trailer park within 10 miles). I didn't think Arizona was supposed to have tornadoes, scary stuff... Good to see you and yours all in one piece.
That sound is the scariest sound I’ve ever heard. Even thought I live in Louisiana, believe it or not, I have been in a couple of tornados and wind storms before. One came up out of nowhere in the middle of the night. It was just quiet as could be. And my mom rushed to my room and told me get up there is a tornado right on top of the house. It wasn’t directly on top of us but it was in the pine plantation behind my house. We just got a little bit of wind off of it compared to what the people on the other side of the plantation. It destroyed the trees and their houses. I will never forget that noise.
We got that supercell in Quebec in Napierville and St-Jean-sur-Richelieu. But you guys got the worst of it but it was still powerful when it got here! That tornado started 45miles away from you guys and continued on up to where I live!
Panda #44 there is a gap between the ground and the tornado, yes. But you must be stupid to think you're safe from a tornado by just ducking under it lmao. Never heard anything more ridiculous
Grubby Kid I don’t think that i straight up pulled that from a book about natural disasters that i read and ofcourse it would be really stupid due to ruble but it may safe some one who is driving in the middle of nowhere and has the thing coming for him seeing a car is one of the most dangerous
Being from New Hampshire where tornados are rare but almost every house has a cellarI don't understand. Why doesn't every house out there have a cellar for a storm shelter instead of having 1 that you have to run to out in the yard? just seems to me like having it inside the house would make it much easier and safer.
First Tornado in my state, I was maybe younger than 8. And that sound will never leave me. We don’t have basements or cellars or even sirens in the Southeast (or at least my state in the SE). The houses down where I live are built for Sever Thunderstorms to Hurricanes...that is if the house is up to date.
Been there, done that, heard that, don't like it...btw you really need to consider having a inside lock on your cellar door, we have had one pull off the hinges in a warned storm
Another little tip, Down here we never park our Trucks inside. To much of a chance that the building will come down on them. We park our trucks out in our pasture where there are no trees. No damage so far after 15 Hurricanes.
The roaring sound is very low level wind shear. The storm front is composed of cool air, so as it advances foward it is pressed down into the ground as the warm air mass climbs over it. This low level wind shear is what causes funnel clouds. The green color is caused by hail. The ice particles reflect energy with the wavelength that happens to be what our eyes perceive as green light, so it looks green to us.
I'm glad it missed you, and I'm glad you didn't wait to get to your shelter. We have a very similar shelter at our house, but we can lock the door down from the inside and we have a beefy door at the bottom of the stairs that opens to the inside and can be double bolted shut { top and bottom } to seal the main area. Might be a couple things to consider adding to yours someday if you don't already have it.
When I was about 13 my mom and I went to Nebraska from Florida to visit my brother and his family. On his birthday, July 5th, my mom, brother and his wife went to a lake and left me in a suburb of Lincoln to look after the little girls. The sky got very dark and the warning sirens went off! I herded the little girls into the cellar, and they were crying and screaming their heads off. A most unpleasant experience! I visited Xenia, Ohio after their big tornado in 1974, massive destruction. We couldn't find the building our company had built , so there was nothing to inspect. Thirty-two people died there. Half the town was wiped out. The whole rest of the world didn't send them relief, they rebuilt and went on.
Several years ago, in the middle of the night, we got hit with a tornado that landed about 1/4 mile from our house. I had always heard that a tornado sounds like a freight train as it goes by but never experienced that before that night. The air was sucked out of our house and my open window became like a vacuum trying to suck the air, curtains and blinds out the window opening. It DID sound just like a freight train going by. (Thank God, damage to my town was minimal but one young teen was killed by it about four blocks from my house.) So, the freight train noise is TRUE.
One thing that I noticed is you may want to put a hyd. jack in the shelter. If a storm threw a bunch of heavy crap on that door, you are trapped. When we went into Joplin after the tornado hit it, we found several people trapped in their shelter. One guy had a long jack and was able to free himself and his family. Pretty cheap insurance, a jack, and a large pry bar may make a lot of difference. You may want to put some water down there too. Just a couple of cases will help. We kind of lucked out having a cave on the property. We can keep food and water down there and it stays cool. Not trying to be a smartass or anything, it's just something people said they never thought about. I have been through 3 tornadoes, and have seen 5, and they are damm scary. The one in Joplin picked up railcars and threw them 1/4 mile. That is the first F-5 damage I've ever seen. You can't imagine the power of these things.
My mom heard that noise one night during a storm, sounded like a freight train flying over head. Had a tree tip onto our house. Lots of tree damage with branches twisted off.
How Farms Work what would you have done if one blew through you're yard do you think you and you're wife would have been safe in that. Just saying. Building something a bit safer for yourself and love ones would be a project you should look into.
I ve heard a small F1 tornado passed behind our house(about 300 feet) and it was really like a 2-locos freight train;it didnt tore houses down but it rolled small trailers and knocked down small trees!
I live in WI and I got relatives that farm in Lancaster, I know that's sort of down by Platteville. Glad to see your all safe though! I know that SW WI gets a lot of bad storms!
That is a thoroughly inadequate shelter. If the door get ripped off you'd get sucked up like a vacuum. You just got your mulligan. Praise God and get building.
Dude you have a massive propane tank right outside your shelter door... Uhhhh
Ikr. I was like oh wait
That's a clean burning death, I tell ya HwAt
Glad you are ok Ryan. BUT you need a better shelter/Bunker. One that is water tight.
I would at least want a heavy chain inside to keep that door shut in 100mph+ winds.
And thats not right next to a propane tank!
Ben Wilson or a telephone pole that could come down on top of it trapping them in.
totaly agree
Don Hanson yeah !
That poor kitty is terrified.

The most scared one out of u all was the cat
Definitely
TheCadester coincidentally, i was more afraid of the cat.
Mitch Holladay wait what
I am very thankful these people (and the cat) got out safely. But that tornadoshelter would not do any protection with a big (>EF3) tornado. My biggest concern however was the big propane tank next to the shelter.
Y'all really need to get a metal door and latches for the shelter entrance. Take this from an okie boy that's been dealing with tornados my whole life
Good comment
OdysseusCentral yep also thpse power lines and that propane tank are a little worrying not to long ago in moore a power line fell near one and boom then a massive fire tornados are nothing to deal with theyve killed many people
OdysseusCentral not really needed the winds of a tornado fade when it hit’s the ground
Panda #44 Yeah, it's not like tornados are actually known for picking up cars or anything. Oh wait, they pick things up and throw them around all the fucking time.
I just moved to OKC from a small town near the Oklahoma border called Wellington, TX where we got at least 2 tornado watches each year
My heart goes out to all who were affected by that nasty storm! The cat's cries jerked at my heart strings! Glad you guys were safe and sound!
I know man what a poor baby :(
Glad they made it out alive tho
I've always heard a tornado sounds like a freight train. Never knew that to be true until this video

Where is this freight train sound?
When you see a green frontline to a storm, you know it's about to get serious. Especially when it backs up... more than once.
The circular storm and that green sky means some shit is going to go down
Justin S. Ya it does
Literally
I appreciate your channel picture
I'd think it means shit is going to go up, but you do you :P
i’m just sitting in my bed, eating cereal, straight out of the bag, watching this video. absolutely riveting stuff, lads.

Anyone else getting twister (the movie ) flash backs
Austin Seubert - damn, now might need to pop that DVD in...
Austin Seubert watch the movie once a week
Yup. My favorite movie too :)

or move the propane tank. i got that tornado scare 2 times in one month and there hasnt been this bad for many years
Wrong. A tornado will not explode a propane tank.
bryce not the tornado they stuff thrown by it for example a tube hits the tank putting a hole in it then a power line makes a spark BOOOOOOM theres an explosion
I was in the 1967 tornado that hit Belvidere Illinois. A lot of people died. After the storm, what I remember most was huge oak trees sticking out root first from the 3rd and 4th stories of the hospital windows, a horse up in a tree impaled by lumber, dead cattle and debris everywhere, and the sirens.

I might not want a huge propane tank beside me with a tornado barring down on me!
My grandad always told me that it sounded like a train, I never thought it did 😂

glenn s I call my storm spotter class pecos hank an instructed storm chaser
That gastank is awfully close to your shelter.
also, propane is heavier than air, so if it were to leak/blow off, it would fill the cellar with fumes/explode.
ronald g clearly you guys live in the city that’s a septic tank lol
ronald g as long as it’s sealed with concrete it’s fine
also a wooden door for a tornado shelter?? does not seem secure..
blake allison Ain't never seen an above ground septic tank and I used to empty them. Where's the leach pit?
Meanwhile Travis was live streaming
Glad you all are alright! Thank you for including us on this scary moment for you guys. Just glad to know everything is safe now. Stay safe!
That loud sound was probably a tornado
Farmer Boy 5310 probably a massive gad station food fart!

That storm cellar of yours, really needs some work.
It’s always scary to here the staticky weather mans voice say take shelter now.

This is still my favorite video for some reason

Up here in Alberta we got hit by an f5 last month. We were cutting hay and it came outta no where.
Marko Nedev hope everyone up there was okay! That sounds terrifying.
Marko Nedev where about in Alberta like more north,south,west or east ,cause I'm in Alberta too and i didn't get that or even hear about it
More west in the Angus to thorhild county
After the storm we went up towards town to catch some supper and everyone was talking about an f5
Marko Nedev that was bad I live in alberta
Are you guys ok? Tornados aint somthing to joke around. And I know you werent joking around so dont take that threatening. I think we are supposed to get that storm later on. Take care.

A friend of mine from college was in Prairie du Chien when this storm hit. There was a lot of damage in the photos she shared that day.

You know freight trains are no joke too and also i have seen this before
I would be scard hope you are ok

Wow I'm glad your ok. There was a low funnel cloud over you. When my house got hit by a tornado it sounded just like that but louder

Jan Kotze that is a very nice tractor you have on the picture, i love mine little Ford 6600

When I was about 13 my mom and I went to Nebraska from Florida to visit my brother and his family. On his birthday, July 5th, my mom, brother and his wife went to a lake and left me in a suburb of Lincoln to look after the little girls. The sky got very dark and the warning sirens went off! I herded the little girls into the cellar, and they were crying and screaming their heads off. A most unpleasant experience! I visited Xenia, Ohio after their big tornado in 1974, massive destruction. We couldn't find the building our company had built , so there was nothing to inspect. Thirty-two people died there. Half the town was wiped out. The whole rest of the world didn't send them relief, they rebuilt and went on.
My family was in that storm... glad everyone is ok. Buildings can be replaced, people cannot.
Thats smart to put the propain tank right by the cellar, lol
Oh, ya, have your storm shelter right next to a propane tank. That is really safe.
You need a proper storm celler! That wooden door won't sustain a direct hit
Jamie's my hero !!! She got the 🐈 cat👏👏👏🐄👏👏
You seemed so chill
Several years ago, in the middle of the night, we got hit with a tornado that landed about 1/4 mile from our house. I had always heard that a tornado sounds like a freight train as it goes by but never experienced that before that night. The air was sucked out of our house and my open window became like a vacuum trying to suck the air, curtains and blinds out the window opening. It DID sound just like a freight train going by. (Thank God, damage to my town was minimal but one young teen was killed by it about four blocks from my house.) So, the freight train noise is TRUE.
that was cool what a crazy summer glad all are good
Glad you are OK!!!
suggest you store a crowbar in the cellar, that way if something fell on the door, you could bust the door apart.
Nice video, like how the propane tank is right next to the cellar
One thing that I noticed is you may want to put a hyd. jack in the shelter. If a storm threw a bunch of heavy crap on that door, you are trapped. When we went into Joplin after the tornado hit it, we found several people trapped in their shelter. One guy had a long jack and was able to free himself and his family.
Pretty cheap insurance, a jack, and a large pry bar may make a lot of difference. You may want to put some water down there too. Just a couple of cases will help. We kind of lucked out having a cave on the property. We can keep food and water down there and it stays cool.
Not trying to be a smartass or anything, it's just something people said they never thought about.
I have been through 3 tornadoes, and have seen 5, and they are damm scary. The one in Joplin picked up railcars and threw them 1/4 mile. That is the first F-5 damage I've ever seen. You can't imagine the power of these things.
This is one place I’d love to visit. To see your farm and the storms. We don’t get anything like this here in the UK
My teacher she said it sounded like a freight train in her experience and all I've seen were prank videos so far,
Until this one o_o thank you
This man is chill the whole ride to the farm
What’s scary is the propane tank above the cellar.
That bucket behind the girl totally looked like a face in the darkness when you were coming out of the cellar. 8:20
if i was there i would have been so scared at 3:28 that looked so weird glad your ok Ryan
Been there. Done that. I live near Greensburg and the newest Kansas disaster area. Gotta love mother nature.
Glad you are ok
you really need to have a way of securing the door from the inside
My mom heard that noise one night during a storm, sounded like a freight train flying over head. Had a tree tip onto our house. Lots of tree damage with branches twisted off.
That's a fantastic storm shelter you have very homely.
Guess you didn't want to shell out to much on it.
Just about every farm in the states had one at one point. Not meant as a storm shelter but often much safer than the house.
How Farms Work what would you have done if one blew through you're yard do you think you and you're wife would have been safe in that.
Just saying. Building something a bit safer for yourself and love ones would be a project you should look into.
I remember that storm. Was mowing at the time. lol
I ve heard a small F1 tornado passed behind our house(about 300 feet) and it was really like a 2-locos freight train;it didnt tore houses down but it rolled small trailers and knocked down small trees!
Stopped by to learn how a farm works. Stayed for Rocket the dog. Great videos. Keep up the great work.
+Matthew Latham 😂 Thanks for watching!
that sound was a funnel cloud witch did turn into a tornado
Usually when the sky is green it's a sure sign a tornado is on its way
Thank God for you and your family are all doing well. Be safe take care and God bless you
Your vid popped up on my feed and some of those clouds looked deadly but awesome, glad you was ok
I live in WI and I got relatives that farm in Lancaster, I know that's sort of down by Platteville. Glad to see your all safe though! I know that SW WI gets a lot of bad storms!
those storm damage pics... wow!
That is a thoroughly inadequate shelter. If the door get ripped off you'd get sucked up like a vacuum. You just got your mulligan. Praise God and get building.
