You US citizens were so sorry when we had the great flood disaster in Germany last summer. My condolences go to you now. My condolences go out to all the victims who have lost relatives and their belongings. It's so horrible to see that, I'm sad. God bless you in America. Greetings from Germany.
My father is among the missing in Mayfield currently, and tbh I fear the worst. His home was in the direct path of destruction through town. So far no word...but a wellness check was done yesterday and they could find no trace of him.
The tornado that went through Mayfield went a mile from my house in Fulton county it was classified as a strong F4. I work in Tennessee and the tornado that went through Bowling Green went through a town called Dresden. Which is about 2 miles from where I work. It had 170 mph winds there and was a strong F3. I was on the phone with my work partner who was home at the time. His son works in Mayfield and his work place got hit, he was telling me about it the same time the tornado hit his house. Was scary sounding as his wife was screaming and he was saying its ripping my house apart and the phone went dead. He ended up being all right but it totaled his house and neighborhood
Thank you for this information! My fiance is from dresden/gleason and his family still lives there. His mom's boyfriend lives only a mile from Kountry Korner, so I have been trying to figure out the exact path and which tornado it was. Thankfully grandma and grandpa only lost a fence and a post.
Good review 👍 . The tornados missed us in South West Tennessee, but associated severe weather caused some damage. My best wishes and prayers for the people of Kentucky.
The Mayfield destruction is greater than EF3 rating it's a large EF4 rating in my opinion with all the destruction in that community. Praying for the people in all the communities effected. 😥
Our family was mourning my aunt who passed away from brain cancer at her home in Corinth, MS that morning, not realizing that several families would be doing the same just 150 miles to the north, the very next day.
I used to live in Kentucky and that tornado went through the exact place i used to live at 😨👀😬 I'm so sorry for everyone that was affected by the tornado 💔🙏🏻 praying from Middletown Ohio
ef3 my butt they need to survey dawson springs that town was basically wiped off the map and the damage looks like ef5 right off the bat plus it was over 1 to 2 miles wide at times.
Three quarters of a mile wide? Ugh! No wonder Mayfield was damaged so thoroughly. Even an ef-2 with 115mph winds is extremely serious for many residential areas. Prayers going to all of these folks affected by these terrifying night time tornados!
I was directly under the radar of the Bowling Green 'nader between Cave City and Campbellsville. (Just North of Summersville on hwy 61) We got an incredible storm, but only minor damage. I wonder if the funnel left the ground and 'respawned' above us before moving on to Campbellsville and doing more damage. Anybody know?
You might have been in the path of the storm but not the tornado itself so you may have gotten some of the other bands. Tornadoes this destructive tend to be between 1/2 a mile and 2 miles wide. You may not have been within that radius, but still within the area of the thunderstorm that produced the tornado.
They can “bounce” over areas at times. Ive had it happen several times in Paducah Ky Florida, Alabama and ne Pennsylvania. As a kid in Paducah we had a large tree sucked out of the ground in backyard but candle was still lit in pumpkin on front porch. Tornados are very weird occurrences.
@@aj402 that seems to be what happened, as my house, cars, motorhome were untouched. The back door of the house still open as I accidentally left it to go into cellar, but 200ft up the hill in back yard (forest) were tons of trees snapped like toothpicks and in a circular pattern. Likewise, no deaths or damage reported in Green County, but it tore up Taylor County immediately after (tiny counties in this state). Some would call it a miracle. I just moved here from Oregon, this is my first experience, ironically a record breaker in an unusual month. Always fascinated by 'naters since watching 'Twister' as a kid.
These newsfolks might want to check-in with the experts in our area. The one that hit Mayfield then hit Dawson Springs, Earlington, Madisonville, and kept moving almost straight due NE.. It was closer to an EF4/EF5 and over a mile wide at the base. What they need in Mayfield is to have folks dedicated to keeping track of storms and conditions. From Mayfield to Whitefalls, those of us in those counties hit knew what was coming since it started in Arkansas and got under shelter. Still lost some folks but nowhere nears as much as Mayfield. Plenty of property damaged and lives torn apart but they can be recovered and rebuilt. Lives cannot. We ain't got much in Madisonville and Hopkins County but what we can spare is heading to Mayfield and Dawson Springs. Schools out until 2022 for us so we got lots of involuntary volunteers, lol 😆...
It hasn’t been confirmed yet and won’t be until NWS surveyors finish their inspection. The enhanced Fujita scale or EF scale rates tornadoes on both wind speed and damage caused. The largest, most violent tornado ever seen, the El Reno tornado, was rated an EF3 because it took place in a rural area so there wasn’t much destruction. The Moore, OK tornado took place in the same week and was smaller, but rated EF5 due to the destruction it caused in a populated area. Personally I think it looks like upper end of EF3 or lower end of EF4 but I’m no expert just someone with an interest in tornadoes.
@@molly-zx9cr the damage in dawson springs looks more like ef5 range then 4 have you seen the damage where many homes and businesses were swept away from their foundations that seriously backs up for a ef5 rating for sure.
@@mionaruse2748 That sounds so much like Tuscaloosa Al back in 2011. Even a high-end ef3 causes great devastation and is stronger than about 99% of all tornadoes!

long tracked tornadoes are the most dangerous. l remember when we were hit in 1998 the tornado that got us traveled well over 100 miles before getting us.l had watched the radar on tv all day that day in april 1998.
I really do feel so bad for people that live in real bad tornado areas. I just can't do severe weather. I start hyperventilating my anxiety goes through the roof I feel like I'm going to pass out can't breathe can't focus. I am seriously traumatized from severe weather it has left me with a lot of mental fear of weather!!! This video makes my chest hurt also I'm crying right now.... I live in Texas and I'm scared as s*** right now just watching this. I pray 🙏🙏 🙏 to God for all the people that lost there life and there families.
My oh my, do I understand you... @Marla87 Rabbit I have lived in Texas for two years and that's where I became seriously scared of weather. I didn't know what severe storms were, specially at night time (which I hate SO much moore!! ), until I lived there, close to Dallas. Nobody ever told me about tornado watches, or tornado warnings... not even my husband!! And I had to find out what those were in the dark hours of the night while everyone was sleeping and I was TOTALLY freaking out. I am touched for life, even though I have not lived a tornado, but just the watch or warning kills me inside, I can't imagine what going through a real one would do to me. I just can't live like that. My husband calls me paranoid, and I'm so tired of it. 0 empathy. So I just wanted to say I sympathize with you 100%, gosh, more than that!! I am so sorry for these poor people...
I am the same way marla.. And I live in Arizona.. Any wind over 50 mph..I Start freaking out.. So I could imagine what I would be like in a storm like this one !! Heart attack for sure...😬
@@doneown503 But the thing is it's not ok. When my husband tells me those kind of sentences like "you're fiiine, it's ok, don't worry..." it just makes it worse. Specially with that condescending tone added to it as if I was crazy for being scared.
I watched the Mayfield tornado hit monette and leachville Arkansas i watched it for nearly an hour i could still see it as it hit hayti mo which is more than 50 miles away. The only reason i quit watching it was i had to get underground because warnings from the bowling green tornado were issued and heading my way
Define underground home? I've been looking into a earth shelter home like the ones Davis Caves build, I just haven't done it yet because I pay up front for everything I own.
Rated an ef3 at this point, but what I’ve seen in mayfield seems to be ef5 damage. Homes swept off their foundations, destroying well built structures. So, we will see.
@@ryant8424 not really tbh, I seen warnings the prior day from small yt channels. The media seems to only cover Covid and political Bs..no longer reliable news
@@ryant8424 it destroyed a town and leveled a factory that had 110 employees in it. Still pulling folks out today. This coverage completely downplayed the storm. Scary to think how media differs. Coverage should all be the same throughout each station
Thankfully I live in the Mountains in WV that keeps the tornadoes out but we have seen an uptick in extreme flooding. The future of weather is freaking scary!
Might need to look back at June 23, 1944. Shinnston, WV tornado that killed 103 ppl, deadliest in WV history. They also were under the false assumption that tornados were kept out by the mountains but were very wrong. Tornados go anywhere they want.
We are helping donate to alot to people as much as possible to Kentucky with foods and etc from north Carolina.... We're making a trip Friday and 3 more after that....
So I'm finding it hard to believe that the national oceanic and atmospheric administration has completed their assessment and kind to the conclusion that this tornado was not on the ground for in excess of 200 miles or have determined the strength of the tornado.. I've been trying to find something from the national weather service on their findings but I'm assuming it will take them at least a couple of weeks.. does anyone out there know if there is a reliable source from the national weather service about their findings or even if they have completed their survey?
@@noeoleole6911 It is the messed up new EF rating system that is messed up. The El Reno tornado had winds in at or above the EF-5 rating but due to it hitting no "well built" structures it got a rating of EF-3. You just don't lower the rating because the tornado hits just forest/trees and/or only hits places that are not well built. You still should give it the windspeed it indicates, or at least partially do so.
@@TheRivrPrncess Th enhanced Fujita scale rates a tornado on both wind speed and damage caused. The El Reno tornado was rated EF3 because it took place in a rural area so there wasn’t as much damage. The Moore, OK tornado, which took place the same week and same state was smaller but rated EF 5 because it caused destruction in a populated area. The enhanced Fujita scale essentially rated tornadoes on their impact to human life and how many lives it effects.
@@TheRivrPrncess Windspeed captured by what? Radar? Because windspeed captured by radar is often nowhere near the ground and therefore a stupid way to measure the strength of a tornado.
This great information about where the tornadoes started at. But my question is this: Did it hit Lexington? That's where Kentucky Horse Park is at. Another question: Where did it end at? My geography knowledge is really bad, I have to say. It's why I asked these questions. So if anyone who lives in Kentucky let me know for I don't live there. Please and thank you. By the way, I feel sorry for those who live in states that have tornadoes. 😔
I live in Trumann Arkansas and we were hit by a tornado. I believe it was one of these tornados. Our fire station was severely damaged along with several other buildings. Trumann is 15 miles south of Jonesboro.
I live over in Bentonville, Ar. Around 6:50pm on Friday evening, our group was at church for a Christmas music program, and right then we got the "Severe Thunderstorm Warning" and "Tornado Watch" alerts on our phones. Around 7:15 as the concert progressed, I heard the distinct sound of marbles and violent rain tapping the windows in the background. I know darn well that's the sound of hail! I wondered if to our East the weather would be worse. I was right, and I get no pleasure from that...
I tell you what. The wind is whipping up today, and makes me wonder if something nasty will come out from it. Because the LAST time it was this windy, the very tornadoes this video is about spawned from this weather system! I've never seen December be so windy and warm like this.
Got a big thunderstorm today, thanks to the approaching cold front. Just unplugged my computer because that lightning is getting mighty close! Anything bizarre over there in Trumann? This is stormy April weather in mid-December...😦
@@d.dementedengineerc99isurf26 when there is a big cold front hitting a warm front you get some crazy weather. That’s exactly what happened here in Northeast Arkansas. Two tornados out of this situation. One in Jonesboro and the other here in Trumann.
@@dalecain1158 I've never seen a December tornado outbreak like this one so far North! With that monster that wiped Maysville Ky... It reminds me of Joplin, Mo. those ten years ago. The South's always had these bad twisters!
First.. so sorry to everyone effected. I have a serious question though... couldn't we do anything to avoid serious storms? I mean at the edge of every state couldn't they pump cold air into the atmosphere for say 8 hours before a storm? I live on the east cost and every time serious weather comes at us.. it hits the cold air from the ocean and falls apart. Even if the man made cold air only reduced the severity of the storm by like 30% ... wouldn't that be worth it?
Would be impossible and probably would feed more to the supercell that caused the tornadoes (supercells are storms that often create tornadoes). If there was a rise of hot and moisture air, then cold air would simply create more strength for the tornado.
@@mionaruse2748 But that won't affect the rating if most structures hit were not well built. It will still get an EF-3 or EF-4 rating. I think that is so unfair to anyone who went through this to say that even though everything is wiped clean, it is still a lowered rating because the structures were not well built.
I mean that’s what it looks like from the pictures I’ve seen. Looks like an upper-end EF-3 or lower-end EF-4 but that could change specifically based on the amount of damage caused due to its long track
@@TheRivrPrncess oh yes it will since dawson springs was hit by the same tornado where it reach its peak intensity over the town and ive watch it unfold on a live stream.
GOD be with Us All in Kentucky & all that's been affected with this horrible weather & tornadoes...I am west Kentucky & thanking God we were spared. Red States are under attack sad but true...
I have never seen this storm like this before. It's just....scary from the movie "Twister" when this F3 tornado hits the drive-in movie and an F4 hits the small town of Wakita.😨😢😢. And there's only one thing to say - There's no such way as tornadoes hit 6 states in the month of December.
Whats crazy is I watched the end of Twister movie that same night on TBS, USA, or some channel like that (can't remember) which ended about 7 or 8pm right before this storm was starting.
@@mnewhouse84 I loved it too!😊😊😊😊😊. Also, my favorite 2 scenes was a 15,000 pound tanker truck sliding down the highway with no driver inside, went up in the air and came down with an explosion!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙. And the final scene is the tractors went up in the air and falling down on the highway like rain.😨😊. Now that's a wild action movie!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👍
I have a theory that the Carolina Bays were dug out by hyper tornadoes at the begining of every autumn. Every autumn the cold fronts would come off the mile thick ice sheet and the terrain would act like a sonic wind tunnel causing the wind to blow a lot faster and colder, when it hits the mountians it would compress it again and then it would hit hot tropical air creating tornadoes with such high speeds that they could dig out the bays. 5x to 10x the speed of these. Just imagine a herd of mammoths getting sucked up into the sky and landing 100's of miles away!

Eat your heart out Oklahomans and your meteorologists in OKC! Especially Moore, 2013! Be glad out there you can see it for miles and miles and they don't happen at night, and aren't rain-wrapped.
Maybe let's not try to have a pissing contest when it comes to deadly weather. 7 children died at an elementary school in that 2013 Moore tornado. Both events are horrendously tragic.
There was literally a high chance of tornado activity issued by the NWS 2 days before. The average warning time for a tornado is 17 minutes before it hits, but they managed to alert the towns 30 minutes before. The reason a lot of people didn’t take shelter is that it hit in the middle of the night.
I was watching the storm chasers and they was telling people an half an hr before the tornado hit Mayfield and they was wondering why the mayfield weather people wasn’t warning people it’s crazy
@@Bringthenatureinside here you go, the weather people warned them well in advance. You can skip to 1 hour and 45 mins to get to Mayfield warnings. th-cam.com/video/-kfoxBDLA7Q/w-d-xo.html
Is TPLF responsible for this destruction? It seems my home town Dessie. #No More I always remember my mom how she cries and affected by USA aided TPLF.
Much more. Much more is coming from my Lord JESUS CHRIST. The One who has all power in Heaven AND earth! If you follow Him in every thought, decision and will, you have NOTHING to worry about. If not...as most of you people on earth usually do, you HAVE TO WORRY! The bowls of Wrath will come over every unrighteous man or woman. Yes, with anger from God. /BEN, Prophet in the world 📖🗡️🛡️
HAARP is a target of conspiracy theorists, who claim that it is capable of "weaponizing" weather. Commentators and scientists say that advocates of this theory are uninformed, as claims made fall well outside the abilities of the facility, if not the scope of natural science.
I'm no expert, but I agree! It looks massive on the few visuals that we can see at night. And the way that it leveled buildings that have been around for at least a century seems to show that it's much stronger than an EF-3.
Hard to do when you don't know when it's gonna hit your area..we were 7miles away from the Bowling Green Tornado path, hovering in our bathroom downstairs at Fort Campbell, there would have been no where else to go this fast. No basements either.
I think its about if you are vaxxed or not. It would not surprise me if these were areas with low vaxx rate. No vaxx? Try man made weather extinction. Bingo!
Why do people live in tornado alleys? It causes horrific destruction, suffering and leaves the taxpayer on the hook when it strikes. Instead of moving out they say "rebuild." What for? To wait for it to happen all over again? Makes no sense.
Jesus is the only way in2 Heaven Ask Him in2 ur life Cleanse u from ALL unrighteousnes BELIEVE N YOUR HEART THAT GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD make Him ur Lord & Savior 1 DAY u will go to Heaven
I don't think they are telling the truth on the Fujita scale level.....to me...it looked like a 3 or higher....not a professional weatherman here.....but...I've been around tornados my whole life....1 or 2...survivable and not this much damage....once it gets over 200 mph.....kiss your ass goodbye

@@addisonline3947 that’s horrible. I apologize as an american citizen on the inhumane acts and behavior of the US govt on the people in your country. Just know that the American people doesn’t have a clue what’s going on in the rest of the world until someone mentions it and spreads the word. Especially, if the US govt is involved. Because the US govt wants to hide their agendas from its own people so we don’t think they’re up to no good. See, the US govt doesn’t even bother to care for it’s own people, let alone another country’s people. That’s why america is falling apart right now. So us in the US who aren’t involved with the US govt directly can’t really control what the US govt does. the US govt does things on their own accord, even pass bills that goes against human rights and public opinion of the US people behind our backs. Just know that a large percentage of the US doesn’t even trust the US govt because of how shady, careless and selfish they are. All they care about is money, power and greed. So i’m sure if they’re doing that to the people in your country, it’s for money, power and greed with carelessness of actual life.

Nobody ever told me about tornado watches, or tornado warnings... not even my husband!! And I had to find out what those were in the dark hours of the night while everyone was sleeping and I was TOTALLY freaking out. I am touched for life, even though I have not lived a tornado, but just the watch or warning kills me inside, I can't imagine what going through a real one would do to me. I just can't live like that. My husband calls me paranoid, and I'm so tired of it. 0 empathy. So I just wanted to say I sympathize with you 100%, gosh, more than that!!
I am so sorry for these poor people...
It's ok, same thing happens to wife , concerning anxiety , ,
I am the same way marla.. And I live in Arizona.. Any wind over 50 mph..I Start freaking out.. So I could imagine what I would be like in a storm like this one !!
Heart attack for sure...😬
@@doneown503 But the thing is it's not ok. When my husband tells me those kind of sentences like "you're fiiine, it's ok, don't worry..." it just makes it worse. Specially with that condescending tone added to it as if I was crazy for being scared.
How many serious powerful and destructive, tornadoes did occurred in the US history territory , at night??...
track stuff from the pacific? wont. santa cruz . now taft ca. 5mph dust. maybe 50,000 gallon/mi^2 just had .2 rain.
I watched the Mayfield tornado hit monette and leachville Arkansas i watched it for nearly an hour i could still see it as it hit hayti mo which is more than 50 miles away. The only reason i quit watching it was i had to get underground because warnings from the bowling green tornado were issued and heading my way
It’s coming Its coming It’s here From twister . Night tornado activity it always the most deadly . One of the reasons I built a underground home .
Define underground home? I've been looking into a earth shelter home like the ones Davis Caves build, I just haven't done it yet because I pay up front for everything I own.
Rated an ef3 at this point, but what I’ve seen in mayfield seems to be ef5 damage. Homes swept off their foundations, destroying well built structures. So, we will see.
Desoto in the 80s, f4 1/2 MILE wide, Moore and Joplin, 1 mile WIDE=f5. Don't covid media cover this storm. Yes, its bad but neighbors were spared.
@@ryant8424 not really tbh, I seen warnings the prior day from small yt channels. The media seems to only cover Covid and political Bs..no longer reliable news
@@ryant8424 it destroyed a town and leveled a factory that had 110 employees in it. Still pulling folks out today. This coverage completely downplayed the storm. Scary to think how media differs. Coverage should all be the same throughout each station
@@Ryanosmitty If every station was the same, there would be no point in having multiple stations. Use your head you numpty.
Chelsea Smith used to be on a Quincy IL news station doing the weather. My local news region.
Thankfully I live in the Mountains in WV that keeps the tornadoes out but we have seen an uptick in extreme flooding. The future of weather is freaking scary!
Might need to look back at June 23, 1944. Shinnston, WV tornado that killed 103 ppl, deadliest in WV history. They also were under the false assumption that tornados were kept out by the mountains but were very wrong. Tornados go anywhere they want.
A part of my city is demolished.. it’s crazy
I was very close to the tornado in Taylorsville. Didn't hear anything and slept right through it! No damage at all. Crazy!
We are helping donate to alot to people as much as possible to Kentucky with foods and etc from north Carolina.... We're making a trip Friday and 3 more after that....
My Family lived through the Bowling Green tornado I broke down into tears
3? Right👍
So I'm finding it hard to believe that the national oceanic and atmospheric administration has completed their assessment and kind to the conclusion that this tornado was not on the ground for in excess of 200 miles or have determined the strength of the tornado.. I've been trying to find something from the national weather service on their findings but I'm assuming it will take them at least a couple of weeks.. does anyone out there know if there is a reliable source from the national weather service about their findings or even if they have completed their survey?
Looks like they're not as effective as they make us think... geez
@@noeoleole6911 It is the messed up new EF rating system that is messed up. The El Reno tornado had winds in at or above the EF-5 rating but due to it hitting no "well built" structures it got a rating of EF-3. You just don't lower the rating because the tornado hits just forest/trees and/or only hits places that are not well built. You still should give it the windspeed it indicates, or at least partially do so.
Nah it’s just speculation from the newscasters. It takes like 2 weeks for a survey to be completed
@@TheRivrPrncess Th enhanced Fujita scale rates a tornado on both wind speed and damage caused. The El Reno tornado was rated EF3 because it took place in a rural area so there wasn’t as much damage. The Moore, OK tornado, which took place the same week and same state was smaller but rated EF 5 because it caused destruction in a populated area. The enhanced Fujita scale essentially rated tornadoes on their impact to human life and how many lives it effects.
@@TheRivrPrncess Windspeed captured by what? Radar? Because windspeed captured by radar is often nowhere near the ground and therefore a stupid way to measure the strength of a tornado.
I live in Jackson county Ohio and if it had held together odd were likely it would've hit us too
This great information about where the tornadoes started at. But my question is this: Did it hit Lexington? That's where Kentucky Horse Park is at. Another question: Where did it end at?
My geography knowledge is really bad, I have to say. It's why I asked these questions. So if anyone who lives in Kentucky let me know for I don't live there. Please and thank you.
By the way, I feel sorry for those who live in states that have tornadoes. 😔
How bought a list of all the towns damaged by the tornadoes...
Ef 4-5
Was just in Paris Kentucky but they were not affected by the Tornadoes.
Wow, riveting story.
@@matthewm3912 Learn how to properly comment. You are being very rude. You should express gladness that the area was not affected.
Good to know, thank you. It looked like it went through Louisville and continued east, over Paris.
I live in Trumann Arkansas and we were hit by a tornado. I believe it was one of these tornados. Our fire station was severely damaged along with several other buildings. Trumann is 15 miles south of Jonesboro.
I live over in Bentonville, Ar. Around 6:50pm on Friday evening, our group was at church for a Christmas music program, and right then we got the "Severe Thunderstorm Warning" and "Tornado Watch" alerts on our phones. Around 7:15 as the concert progressed, I heard the distinct sound of marbles and violent rain tapping the windows in the background. I know darn well that's the sound of hail! I wondered if to our East the weather would be worse. I was right, and I get no pleasure from that...
I tell you what. The wind is whipping up today, and makes me wonder if something nasty will come out from it. Because the LAST time it was this windy, the very tornadoes this video is about spawned from this weather system! I've never seen December be so windy and warm like this.
Got a big thunderstorm today, thanks to the approaching cold front. Just unplugged my computer because that lightning is getting mighty close! Anything bizarre over there in Trumann? This is stormy April weather in mid-December...😦
@@d.dementedengineerc99isurf26 when there is a big cold front hitting a warm front you get some crazy weather. That’s exactly what happened here in Northeast Arkansas. Two tornados out of this situation. One in Jonesboro and the other here in Trumann.
@@dalecain1158 I've never seen a December tornado outbreak like this one so far North! With that monster that wiped Maysville Ky... It reminds me of Joplin, Mo. those ten years ago. The South's always had these bad twisters!
First.. so sorry to everyone effected. I have a serious question though... couldn't we do anything to avoid serious storms? I mean at the edge of every state couldn't they pump cold air into the atmosphere for say 8 hours before a storm? I live on the east cost and every time serious weather comes at us.. it hits the cold air from the ocean and falls apart. Even if the man made cold air only reduced the severity of the storm by like 30% ... wouldn't that be worth it?
How would they even do that?
Would be impossible and probably would feed more to the supercell that caused the tornadoes (supercells are storms that often create tornadoes). If there was a rise of hot and moisture air, then cold air would simply create more strength for the tornado.
Tim Marshall is on the Mayfield tornado survey so expect an EF3-EF4.
but they need to take account of dawson springs that town was basically wiped off the map by the same tornado alot slab foundations remain.
@@mionaruse2748 But that won't affect the rating if most structures hit were not well built. It will still get an EF-3 or EF-4 rating. I think that is so unfair to anyone who went through this to say that even though everything is wiped clean, it is still a lowered rating because the structures were not well built.
I mean that’s what it looks like from the pictures I’ve seen. Looks like an upper-end EF-3 or lower-end EF-4 but that could change specifically based on the amount of damage caused due to its long track
@@TheRivrPrncess oh yes it will since dawson springs was hit by the same tornado where it reach its peak intensity over the town and ive watch it unfold on a live stream.
I thought that when it takes bark off trees and takes homes off their foundations it was an ef5
GOD be with Us All in Kentucky & all that's been affected with this horrible weather & tornadoes...I am west Kentucky & thanking God we were spared. Red States are under attack sad but true...
Why unnecessarily bring politics into it?
I've seen reports and readings over 200+ mph
I have never seen this storm like this before. It's just....scary from the movie "Twister" when this F3 tornado hits the drive-in movie and an F4 hits the small town of Wakita.😨😢😢. And there's only one thing to say - There's no such way as tornadoes hit 6 states in the month of December.
Whats crazy is I watched the end of Twister movie that same night on TBS, USA, or some channel like that (can't remember) which ended about 7 or 8pm right before this storm was starting.
@@mnewhouse84 Wow! How was the movie?😊💙💙💙💙💙💙
@@justinfelt748 Great!
@@mnewhouse84 I loved it too!😊😊😊😊😊. Also, my favorite 2 scenes was a 15,000 pound tanker truck sliding down the highway with no driver inside, went up in the air and came down with an explosion!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙. And the final scene is the tractors went up in the air and falling down on the highway like rain.😨😊. Now that's a wild action movie!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👍
@@justinfelt748 Classic! Have a great night my friend.
Did the supercell travel 220+ miles or did one of the tornadoes travel 220+ miles wtf?
Tornadoes in the Middleton of december
No doubt in my mind weather modification
This was in line with climate change predictions. Humans are certainly modifying the climate and the climate is generating stronger weather events.
Chelsea is good. Brava!
I have a theory that the Carolina Bays were dug out by hyper tornadoes at the begining of every autumn. Every autumn the cold fronts would come off the mile thick ice sheet and the terrain would act like a sonic wind tunnel causing the wind to blow a lot faster and colder, when it hits the mountians it would compress it again and then it would hit hot tropical air creating tornadoes with such high speeds that they could dig out the bays. 5x to 10x the speed of these.
Just imagine a herd of mammoths getting sucked up into the sky and landing 100's of miles away!

Came here for the weather, stayed for the eye candy.
Also the southern storm was a good ways away from Mayfield, Mayfield was never in danger. Please report facts.
She never said Mayfield was in danger. She just pointed out how close it was.

Eat your heart out Oklahomans and your meteorologists in OKC! Especially Moore, 2013! Be glad out there you can see it for miles and miles and they don't happen at night, and aren't rain-wrapped.
Maybe let's not try to have a pissing contest when it comes to deadly weather. 7 children died at an elementary school in that 2013 Moore tornado. Both events are horrendously tragic.
Okay is very angry, because of the wicked. It's Not over !
Yeah, forget the forecast, we got some REAL weather news here……
Unfortunately, main media and weather channels were miserably failed to early warn about devastating Tornado.
Well, they do make weather alert radios and apps.
There was literally a high chance of tornado activity issued by the NWS 2 days before. The average warning time for a tornado is 17 minutes before it hits, but they managed to alert the towns 30 minutes before. The reason a lot of people didn’t take shelter is that it hit in the middle of the night.
Climate change has been discussed for about 40 years. It’s now in the media daily. Pay attention to how it might impact your area.
I was watching the storm chasers and they was telling people an half an hr before the tornado hit Mayfield and they was wondering why the mayfield weather people wasn’t warning people it’s crazy
@@Bringthenatureinside here you go, the weather people warned them well in advance. You can skip to 1 hour and 45 mins to get to Mayfield warnings.

At least EF3? If that is not at least an EF5 the entire scale needs to be scrapped and redone with someone with a brain.
These were no smaller then F4. 250 miles is a long ways. She doesn't know crap.
Preliminary... And your meteorology degree is from where?...😗
She is reporting what the national weather service (NWS) said, just like every other meteorologist.
Looks man-made to me.

Much more. Much more is coming from my Lord JESUS CHRIST. The One who has all power in Heaven AND earth!

This is definitely harp tornado in December in Kentucky
It's global warming not harp.
HAARP is a target of conspiracy theorists, who claim that it is capable of "weaponizing" weather. Commentators and scientists say that advocates of this theory are uninformed, as claims made fall well outside the abilities of the facility, if not the scope of natural science.
@@victorialamport-brown8699 Hello Miss Brainwashed, how is it going?
@@evelina.amazonAtGmail Says the one who believes in a theory that hasn’t even been proven
That wasn’t no EF-3 that was an freaking F-5 !
I'm no expert, but I agree! It looks massive on the few visuals that we can see at night. And the way that it leveled buildings that have been around for at least a century seems to show that it's much stronger than an EF-3.
You don't get to say.
They should do forced evacuation to avoid loss of human life.
Hard to do when you don't know when it's gonna hit your area..we were 7miles away from the Bowling Green Tornado path, hovering in our bathroom downstairs at Fort Campbell, there would have been no where else to go this fast. No basements either.
Why are red states getting hit by bad weather
😔💔
Bummer thought this was naked news 😜
I hope no Republicans were harmed
I think its about if you are vaxxed or not. It would not surprise me if these were areas with low vaxx rate. No vaxx? Try man made weather extinction. Bingo!
The yanks will probably blame Russia for causing the tornadoes!
Why do people live in tornado alleys? It causes horrific destruction,
suffering and leaves the taxpayer on the hook when it strikes. Instead
of moving out they say "rebuild." What for? To wait for it to happen all
over again? Makes no sense.

what worst-ever super-tornados? {scoffing fit from the climate deniers}
Climate deniers know that Global Warming is a political hoax to extort money out of countries! But there is climate change. The sun affects our climate and the sun is in Grand Solar Minimum, a new Ice Age, which is not reported by the lying MSM, only reported by other news sources.

@@addisonline3947 that’s horrible. I apologize as an american citizen on the inhumane acts and behavior of the US govt on the people in your country. Just know that the American people doesn’t have a clue what’s going on in the rest of the world until someone mentions it and spreads the word. Especially, if the US govt is involved. Because the US govt wants to hide their agendas from its own people so we don’t think they’re up to no good. See, the US govt doesn’t even bother to care for it’s own people, let alone another country’s people. That’s why america is falling apart right now. So us in the US who aren’t involved with the US govt directly can’t really control what the US govt does. the US govt does things on their own accord, even pass bills that goes against human rights and public opinion of the US people behind our backs. Just know that a large percentage of the US doesn’t even trust the US govt because of how shady, careless and selfish they are. All they care about is money, power and greed. So i’m sure if they’re doing that to the people in your country, it’s for money, power and greed with carelessness of actual life.
