I watched Ryan Hall, Y'all during the Greenfield tornado and he does a great job tracking severe weather nationwide.
Him and Max velocity.
They are both on TH-cam
Max velocity and Ryan hall are my go to they are both authentic
I was also watching it live because my family lives in the bootheel of Missouri....I am speeking of the f4 that hit western Kentucky.
I like Ryan max conner and Reed I switched back and forth during tornado time
What a great mother you are Christi to all your wonderful children. xx
Yoo happy Saturday 🎉🎉🎉🎉 lol
Thank you so much!
12:11 well it's not that its excessively large on purpose, its what NWS call a precautionary warning, or potentially due to the size of the complex or the storm, they have to account for extra deviance and sometimes splits. The biggest issue faced is the boy cries wolf, and the numbing of the feel that an actual tornado threat is looming over your area, but actually a tornado is coming your way, and it can be too quick and too sudden, decreasing lead times for shelter, especially those in mobile homes. Also the low resolution of the warning is something the NWS is working on to see how they can modify this as we need to understand pattern recognition of storm behaviour better so the right warnings come out at the right time, for the correct region. @LoveJarVlogs
I thought it was interesting. But absolutely makes sense, especially when storms can be unpredictable and change course unexpectedly.
If the rain stoped in a thunderstorm that manes a tornado is forming
@@nolan-13storm not necessarily especially the joplin tornado, its was raining well ahead and around, however the only instance it was visible was directly next to it, with little to no time to realise as a normal resident.
@@nolan-13storm😬😬
@@LoveJarVlogsprob the tornado was harmful!!! Glad you guys are safe!!!!! Was harmful!!!!!!!
Great picture of the CGI (cloud to ground lightning) and cloud to cloud lightning! As you’re undoubtedly learning in school, tornado warnings are issued in an area, which may include an entire county when radar indicates rotation and there’s the distinctive “hook” where the wind moving in two different directions is merging.
Thanks 😀
Also so glad you all recovered safely from Covid💓
That rain was crazy when you guys were out running errands! I'm glad you are all safe and prayers for the folks hit by such terrible storms! My grandma was Catholic and she would burn palms and spread the smoke through out her house during a storm. She also would sprinkle Holy water all around and also on us grandkids. God Bless and stay safe
Hey Christi i would recommend a weather radio to keep you safe!
Thanks for the tip!
@@LoveJarVlogs you should get a Midland wr120 that's the one I have
@@LoveJarVlogs the Midland WR120B and the WR400 are both great weather radios. They definitely can be a life saver in case power goes out, no tv or wifi connection, etc
@@LoveJarVlogsweather radio is nice!!!!😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Tornado warnings are harmful glad you guys are safe
It was nice seeing u all again. I haven't gotten any notifications from u in quite some time. Hopefully I have it figured out but I'm glad to be back. I'm glad u all are safe.
I am glad this one came through 😀
I live in Greenfield Iowa, just came across this video we are ok the tornado came through just a block and a half away from us, the house was shaking and when we realized what just happened we ran straight towards where the tornado hit to make sure everyone was ok, sadly five people died and 31 were severely hurt, there was two by fours sticking out of the ground like missles. Here lately new info came in that the tornado had winds of up to 309 mph to 318 mph which broke the record for the strongest tornado in the world, after all that we had one derachio, another tornado that came close to town and now, a flash flood warning, times are tough but glad you guys are ok
I am glad you are okay. I could not believe it when I turned on the news.
LOVE your weather videos, we lost 3 huge trees when that system came through Wisconsin, landed on our garage
Oh no! 😥
@@LoveJarVlogsyeah, in Minnesota someone was camping, the camper van got flipped over by a tornado and tons of trees was knocked down and 2 tornados was spotted close by
@@LoveJarVlogsIn Wisconsin on 6/17/24 Colby, WI was hit by a EF0 tornado it only lasted for a few Minutes though but on 5/21/24 the town of Unity, WI was hit by a EF1 there was trees blocking most roads and some power lines fell on someone’s house starting it on fire luckily the CAVFD got there in time and put it out
@@Herbie-outdoor-fishinga few years ago our campground was hit by a tornado in Minnesota 7 minutes after the sirens went off
I remember that storm I have to get off the school bus that day that’s how I remember yeah I go to school at Western Dubuque 🖤❤️bobcats yeah I still remember when that tornado hit Greenville Iowa that day
*Greenfield
Love your videos so much they bring em joy to my everyday lifestyle ❤
be safe till the storms stop and hope you and the kids and husband all take shelter until the storm stops to to be safe from a storm or tornado ty 🤗...
Hey from Bettendorf, iowa!! Girl it was INSANE!!
Who else love to relax and watch the love jar vlogs
Me
Me!
Definitely some green looking clouds in there!! Glad you're all safe!!
I thought they looked green too.
I’m new to your channel and I was heading home from Missouri to Iowa and I was caught in a tornado. Saw my first ever tornado and got it on film and took shelter in some gas station. That was scariest day of my life. My heart goes to greenfield.
Oh I am so sorry you had to experience that.
This was one of the busiest Mays in all of history, and there were multiple notable tornadoes including the Barnsdall-Bartlesville EF4 in Oklahoma on May 6th, the Greenfield, Iowa tornado which is mentioned in the video, the Clareville, Oklahoma and the North Texas tornadoes on May 25, and many more causing billions of dollars in damage.
We had several, including s strong EF2 go thru Portage, MI on May 7th
Our prayers go out to these cities.
Stay safe 🙏
Love you guys, always have 😇❤️
I am still fascinated about weather, and sorry about my absence for all these years. I don't know when I last watched you all, but my dad passed away on October 26th of 2021. I just need to say, though, that I get very excited when a storm approaches my area. Not excited as in growing scared, but excited like exhilarating, especially when the weather is very hot. Our heat index yesterday went up to 115, and I was not all there when I ordered groceries online because the weight of the groceries kind of destroyed me last night. I was really tired all day yesterday. I live upstairs in a loft, so carrying those groceries upstairs and then running down to get some more groceries... I think the heat got to me because I fell down on the stairs... my knees hurt, but I didn't hurt myself too badly thankfully.
La Nina this year, but I don't know that it will affect the tornadoes, but it will affect the hurricanes. But yeah, you did say that meteorologists say that they sometimes over-exaggerate so we'll see what these hurricanes have coming in August, September and October (since they sort of ramp up during those months).
And yes, I am very sure what you have made in the crock-pot was very delicious. I am imagining the smell as I write this to you. I love the smell of dill.
So sorry for your loss. What I meant by over exaggerate when I said that was not that meteorologist overexaggerate, but that the area is many times bigger for tornado warnings than what the path of the tornado will actually be, but there’s no way for them to know exactly where it’s going to be, which is why they have to do so. It is meant to keep people safe. I do not believe it has anything to do with hurricanes though.
@@LoveJarVlogs I mean weather is a wonder, but sometimes not to be toyed with. But I am hoping that there’s no flooding in your house. You never can tell with climate change.
@@LoveJarVlogs And thank you for sending me your regards.
@@LoveJarVlogs Also, I cracked my tooth so now I need to deal with that. *sighs* The joys of life - It’ll throw you a curveball at every chance it gets when one becomes older.
Iowa has been hit hard this year, I'm lucky because Lake Michigan has killed a few big storms for us this year however to our South in the Kalamazoo area they were hit by 4 or 5 in May. I wish I could taste those veggies you made LOL. I make them with olive oil and fresh garlic. Stay safe
I’ll have to try the fresh garlic next time that sounds good.
Love jar vlogs is awesome God bless you guys
Thank you you too
@@LoveJarVlogs my pleasure
I had one of those a few weeks ago here in Nebraska
Stay safe 🙏
Very recent research on that Greenfield tornado had observed winds speeds from the Doppler on Wheels of ~318 mph. It is not clear when those winds speeds were recorded but just an interesting fact.
It’s interesting to know that you guys finish the School Year in the middle of the actual year, I’m from Sydney Australia so totally different.
Loving these storm videos, sorry for a late comment.
Most schools run late August or early September to late May or early June in the United States. How does it work in Australia?
@LoveJarVlogs the end of year is near Xmas time, they would then have 6 weeks off. Coming back February. In between the year they do get 2 weeks off each Term
I love your videos on TH-cam and I hope you enjoy your 4th of July with your family and friends
Thank you! You too!
Good evening, I am in contact with meteorologists that work at the NWS. This tornado although has a rating of EF4, is now unofficially the tornado with the fastest ever projected wind speeds ever recorded. The 2013 El Reno tornado in Oklahoma, had wind speeds estimated to be up to 341 mph; This tornado however has unofficially beaten the record.
Hi, Christi and Happy Friday!😊😊😊😊😊😎☀💙💙💙💙💙💙🌷💖💖💖💖💖💖🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇👍. I missed you and...looking beautiful. I'm impressed!😀😍. Also, you never believe what happened three weeks ago on Wednesday. A EF1 tornado hit the state of Michigan...again!😮😮. And it was Livonia, the hardest hit when a large, massive tree hit the house with a toddler inside.😮😮. And....😢😢he didn't make it.
Omg... 😢
@@victoriasteffen4541 Yeah. And the mother is in the hospital with light injuries.🙏
Oh no that is horrible 😢
Oh that poor mother…
@@LoveJarVlogs Yeah. She's in the hospital to regain her strength.🙏
We had a couple tornados in Maryland like 2 weeks ago. Saw one of them on video. Did some damage in a lot of places. Quite unusual for Maryland.
Stay safe 🙏
If you see the sky turning green ish then that’s a tornado sign
my name is darren from huddersfield england we measure our thunderstorms in miles like 1 and 2 and 3 and so on awsome vlogs as always take care and stay safe
Glad to hear your family is ok. Everytime I hear about tornadoes and severe weather in Iowa I think about your family. I know you are in the eastern part of the state, but not sure exactly where.
We are in the tri-state area of Illinois, Iowa, and Wisconsin.
6 years later, i still reccomend moving to Wisconsin!
that one tree that was just going freaked me out! i wonder if it has to do with rotation or something. i’m so glad yall are safe, God bless!! 🩷
Thank you.
brookfield iowa is the one im talking about it started near grand island and lincon Nebraska
The ones in Madison Wisconsin kinda missed but i think here in rock county there a tornado warning in the northwest part of the county we were lucky we only got a severe thunderstorm warning here in the southeastern rock county
Madison got 80 mph winds.
@UnitedStatesCarWashChannel26 Jesus christ that much? This year has been active especially in Wisconsin I mean evansville Edgerton got an ef-2 tornado in February
@@nightmarefredbear1234 I remember seeing photos of that Tornado. Yay, it got pretty bad. Luckily where I live, it was just really have rain & thunder.
@UnitedStatesCarWashChannel26 I live in the middle of nowhere and I heard the sirens they were loud and I don't know if they were clinton or janesville sirens but yeah that evansville tornado was bad
That is awesome that you are taking a class on weather i youst to chase tornados with a friend of mine and if you want to learn more about tornados and savear storms I don't now if there is a national weather service in your town but they offer classes on how to be a trained tornado spotter I am a huge weather buff keep up your good work
Thank you 😊
Pray for greenfield iowa 😢 poor Iowa I live In iowA so pray for Iowa
🌪️🌪️🌪️🌪️
We get the warnings watches but so fr have never been in a tornado came come very close though !We have a elevator down as there was smoke or a fire so its down till they can get it fixed and wanted to eat Mexican but can not but will go Monday if the elevator is working fixed hope its working fixed by Wednesday as I have a bone scan of both knees !Happy Weekend Christi and family !
Oh no! I hope all goes well with your scan.
That one lightning bolt tho.. amazing shot im getting a storm tonight but not too big
We had some thunderstorms here in Wilkes-Barre PA today but nothing severe
I’ve watched some of your blogs before but never commented on them haha, but this tornado was very catastrophic and I remember tracking it, this tornado could potentially or might be rated EF5 which is highest on the Enhanced Fujita Scale which a scale for tornadoes that mainly focuses, if there’s a house completely destroyed, slabbed off its foundation,it’s considered a EF5.
Busy this year i had 3 circulations pass over my home . 2 put us in the basement and the 3d was at 330 am so i dropped the ball on that one. The tornadoes roped out before it reached us and the 3rd was only radar indicated.😅
When we have thunderstorms I look outside that looks like a normal day in Uk lol hope everything one was safe
Those clouds are scary I've been in a tornadoes before and that's why I hate summer
We had a line come through Illinois Thursday night there was no tornado warning however NWS confirmed ef1 damage in a large area. The straight-line winds were so bad it has made it too hard to determine an exact path.
As I was watching the video my hometown was listed on the tv
Straight-line winds are no joke!
The Greenfield tornado was rated an EF4. One of the highest ranks on the Enhanced Fujita Scale
It was amazing the power that storm had.
You should get the book Ben and Now it's really good.I love the book 9:22
Love your weather logs !!! When you cook and so much more. Love your family and they are Amazing!!! I could watch your videos all day! ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
Thanks so much 😊
Im glad you guys are safe. love from a long time watcher
This Tornado season has been crazy have a great weekend
You as well!
@@LoveJarVlogs 😊
Hopefully the Greenville People are Okay. That looked really bad. 🥺
We got 80mph winds in Wausau area Wisconsin lost power for a few hours a tornado came 40 miles west of Wausau scary system
Glad you are safe 🙏
Kenosha, wi Sadly got 2 tornado. Scared me a lot.
I am sorry you had to go through that.
Gosh, i hope you have a basement, or a storm shelter!!
We have a basement
great video. i'm a stormchaser/stormspotter for my area. you can take a spotter class for your area it's free. it last about 2 hours. i'm going to take a meteorology courses. stay safe.
God protect those affected by these tornadoes
I was in the area chasing the tornado and doing Search and rescue. Edit, it was really bad. I used my 2018 ram 1500 that I use for chasing this thing is sweet
Thank you for helping stay safe.
No problem
the greenfield tornado was so strong it bent anchor bolts on a house foundation
Wow 😮
Bro, we had severe weather/ a Tornado Watch by Environmental Canada, but we didn't get no Tornado Warnings. back on 6/13/24 but the wind gusts were like 110 KMPH
Isn’t that crazy how the wind can be so fast and no sirens, sometimes it’s just as dangerous.
@@LoveJarVlogs exactly !!!!!
Did you moved.Better home. I Love watching you guys. Bobbie Hall
We did 😀
I live very close to greenfield
That was all over the news here in London
It was really awful 😞
Loved the lightning ❤
my city got destroyed 2 weaks ago im at my grandparints house
I am so sorry
My weather is rain on Sunday afternoon
I’ve got acid reflex its called GARD
I think I have heard of it .
Love storms except for tornado 🌪 don't be scared be prepared 😉
YALL SQUAD ! 😂
I just came across your channel and was binge watching some of your older videos, I'm a weather geek so I watched alot of your tornado watches, the only thing that really bothers me is you stare at yourself instead of your audience when talking, it's very distracting and doesn't feel as personal...other than that your vlogs are great!! NEW subscriber here! ❤
Welcome
Or the easy way is 1 Mississippi 2 Mississippi lol
Did you grab the birb and brought he/she down to the basement
We never went to the basement. We only go in warnings.
“IT’S A FLIPPING MOSQUITO!” got me laughing for ten minutes 😂😂
This Tornado season has been relentless and Chaotic for some areas. I'm glad you're safe and sound
27:19 19:46
This is my first time watching your videos. You're very sweet and have a lovely home. I found it quite interesting from a weather person's perspective. We were on radar when the EF4 moved through Greenfield, Iowa the night you were taping your video. On radar we saw it and our hearts just sunk. The debris signature was more than evident and we wondered if anyone at all survived. By God's perfect Will, most did. Your storm didn't worry me at sight.
I couldn’t believe it when it came on the television 😞
@@LoveJarVlogs Oh yes. 😢 Honey, I just cried. It was the 4th thing I looked at after I got up that next morning. Do you have those moments where you fight not to question God? That was one of mine. We knew it was catastrophic but seeing it is like seeing a tornado devastation for the first time. You cry for these poor souls and wonder if they know anyone who could let them stay at their house for several months.
Stay safe whenever those nasty tornadoes and severe thunderstorms come. Prayers are being sent to everyone who has been effected by these tornadoes this year.
there was a tornado that touched down 15 mins away form me and when the sirens went off it scared me but no tornadoes happend to
be in our area!
I love severe weather
TH-cam has made some changes. If any of your favorite TH-camrs are not showing up after they load the new video you need to go to your settings make sure your notifications are on.
And I watch max velocity
I’m sorry you guys caught COVID! Yuck! Glad everyone is feeling better and is ok now. And sorry to hear about your Mother’s Day. Hope you still had a good Mother’s Day other than the ribs and COVID. I love your storm content it’s so awesome.
I also live in Iowa around the greenfield area, iowa has been hit really hard this year is the most tornados i have ever gone through in my entire life
🙏🙏🙏
Think back to the following events.........
Moore, Oklahoma: 1999 and 2013
Parkersburg, Iowa on May 25, 2008
Joplin, Missouri: $3 Billion in Tornado Damage there
April 27, 2011: Tornado Outbreaks can be very large like the Super Outbreak was on that day in the Deep South.
Entire towns can be wiped off the map, or in case of Star Wars Day (May 4), wiped off the Galactic Starchart like Greensburg, Kansas was in 2007.
Yeah some of them are devastating
@@LoveJarVlogs No one worldwide is safe from the tornadic threat, even in winter like Mayfield, Kentucky on my 16th birthday in December 2021.
Metrologist classes? Hmm, seems like you could be s weather mom.
Abd this video shot here I think was during the May 26th-28th time-frame, during that 🌪🌪outbreak.
Glad you all were ok as you managed to upload. outbreak
May 21st. It was a pretty significant severe weather day for the Midwest.
It was in May 21st.
@@SteveTpenn I live in Wisconsin, it was pretty bad in Madison. They said there was 80 mph winds in Madison. I’ll remember this because it was on my birthday.
We got the winds a few days after this
@@LoveJarVlogs 90 mph winds is nuts! The worst I have seen is 60 mph winds. I’m just glad y’all are safe!
I’m really sad the tornado hit my grandparents home 🏠😢
I am so sorry to hear that 🙏
Alert storm alert⚠️🌪🌪⛈⚡️
Counties with the older legacy systems when a tornado warning is issued will sound for the whole county..the newer warnings will only be for the area the tornado will impact not sound for the county...and for rotation there needs to be a meso cylone which produces the wall cloud which tornado will come from!!
Just to let you know we are supposed to get more storms today in Iowa so watch out and make sure to watch as well too think you stay safe 👍🏻 and to night as well too
The weather is so nuts this time of year for you guys!
Ohio tied there record for tornados this year my county got one but didn’t hit me direct
this tornado is a record breaker,for the fastest moving,it was moving 80MPH,the 1 before this was the 2021 mayfield KY EF-4 it was moving 70-75MPH,and the 2013 el reno OK EF-3 was moving 68MPH,and its also the biggest on record in size of 2.6 miles wide,had 296MPH winds,and was on the ground for 19 miles,while mayfield KY beat the 1925 tri state for distance traveled,only differences was mayfield was at night hard to see coming but it was a huge wedge,rated EF-4 tri state was during the day time EF-5 it was F5 back then but very few saw it coming because of what it looked like,most say it was a low cloud close to the ground.wile theres toss ups between joplin of 2011,jarrell in 1997,and may 3rd 1990 of moore oklahoma for winds speeds cuz all were between 302-318MPH,while 1991 andover kansas ans joplin did the most damage,yours that hit your area beat mayfield and el reno for ground speed,it was a large wedge,and it had 197MPPH wind speeds and they rated it a high end EF-4 glad your ok
I was 4 blocks from this storm on a storm shelter but I don’t trust those with over 300 mph winds in the high tornado rather take my chance driving I know enough to drive and be behind it or ho opposite that’s why I got 8 weather apps and Ryan Hsll on when it’s storming
Absolutely love your videos! Especially the weather ones
Cute family
Thank you so much!
