DEADLIEST TORNADO of 2024 (so far through Sep. 12)
During the active storm season of 2024, incredible tornadoes seemed to be making daily headlines. Despite the high tornado count, the death toll has been surprisingly low. Of the 1600 tornadoes counted (so far) this year, only 44 deaths have been reported. Perhaps a testament to our warning system, and luck. The deadliest tornado this year was an EF3 that tracked between Valley View TX and Sanger TX at night on May 25th. Manufactured and mobile homes were heavily damaging or demolishing and seven lives were lost.
THE TRISTATE TORNADO of 1925
On Wednesday, March 18, 1925 a highly visible funnel appeared under a classic supercell thunderstorm at 1pm near Moore Township, Missouri. Shortly after the deadliest tornado in US history would claim its first life. Town after leveled town would endure a horror unlike anything America had ever seen. After crossing into Illinois, the parent storm transitioned to a high precipitation mode obscuring the intense tornado behind a curtain of rain while the strength and size of the tornado increased. With wind estimates perhaps in excess of 300 mph, the tornado obliterated the numerous towns directly in its path while racing across the landscape at an average speed of 62 mph. Entire rows of homes were leveled and swept away. Schools were devastated. Railroad tracks were reportedly ripped from the ground and sheets of iron were carried as far as 50 miles away. In rural areas, farmhouses were also leveled. Trees were debarked and the tornado carved deep scours into the earth Indicating this tornado would have easily earned the highest intensity rating on today’s enhanced Fujita scale, an EF5.
Between The obliterated town of Gorham and the highly devastated town of Murphysboro, the mile-wide tornado sprinted to an incredible speed of 73 mph and for a long-time it was recognized as the fastest tornado ever recorded. In its wake, large fires burned structures with trapped victims inside. Thousands were left without shelter or food and looters raided the rubble. After 3 hours and 38 minutes of unspeakable horror, the tornado, or family of tornadoes, finally dissipated at 4:38 PM near Petersburg Indiana. Along a 235 mile damage path, approximately 15,000 homes had been destroyed, and 695 men, woman and children lost their lives. By far the largest death toll registered by any US tornado to the present day.
THE DEADLIEST TORNDO IN THE WORLD
On April 26th, 1989 a large powerful tornado tracked through Bangladesh. According to the World Meteorological Organization this tornado killed roughly 1,300 people and injured 12,000. According to the Bangladesh Observer, "The devastation was so complete,
that barring some skeletons of trees, there were no signs of standing infrastructures.”
TOP 10 DEADLIEST TORNADOES EVER RECORDED
Bangladesh is no stranger to terrible tornadoes. In fact six historic tornadoes occurring in Bangladesh are contenders for the Top 10 deadliest tornadoes ever recorded. The United States has only two on that list.
TORNADOES IN BANGLADESH
It's not that Bangladesh has bigger, badder tornadoes than the US. Oklahoma is roughly the same size of Bangladesh and has significantly more tornadoes. But Oklahoma has population of 4 million while Bangladesh has a population of 174 million. If a big bad tornado occurs, It would be much more likely to hit a heavily populated area in Bangladesh than in the US.
BANGLADESH VULNERABLE TO TORNADOES
The dense population, absence of a sophisticated warning system and lack of tornado shelter able to withstand destructive winds make Bangladesh highly vulnerable to any tornadoes that occur and thus the deadliest location in the world regarding tornado related fatalities.

Hello and Greetings! I'm from Bangladesh, and we share a tragic history with both tornadoes and tropical cyclones. But, we are resilient, rebuilding and coming back stronger every time. 🌪🇺🇸🤝🇧🇩🌪
@summit_sayem, my heart goes out to you and your people. Can you tell me, have efforts been made in your country to establish early warning systems, like we have here in the U.S.?
Maybe tornado siren companies could open up international shipping.
@@ldcraig2006 Hello and thank you for your kind words. 🙏
The reported severe weather incidents with mass casualties occurred between the early 70s and late 80s, during a time when Bangladesh was devastated and still recovering from the aftermath of our gruesome 1971 war for independence. Our warning systems, civilian infrastructure and storm shelters were not adequate at that time to prevent such tragedies. Today, Bangladesh is fully equipped, comparable to advanced countries like the U.S. in managing severe weather. To provide some insight to your question, I can cite an example of how we handled "Cyclone Remal" recently in 2024, which became crowned as the costliest known tropical cyclone in our history.
Tropical cyclones, particularly during cyclone season from May-April, are the most detrimental events and cause the most damage due to our geographical location. The U.S. Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) began tracking the cyclonic circulation system in the Bay of Bengal on 21st May 2024, and by 24th May, issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert (TCFA). On 26th May, the Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD) issued an advance distress signal code 10 for coastal districts. Around 8,000-9,000 shelters were readied and stocked in the nearby areas to house 800,000 evacuated people, and operations at Chittagong's largest sea port were suspended. The army, fire service, volunteers, and other government institutions were ready for post-storm rescue. Although the cyclone claimed 19 lives, nearly a million people were effectively evacuated to safety.
Bangladesh has come a long way in building resilience against natural disasters, and while challenges remain, we continue to improve our response and preparedness to protect the people.

Today, Bangladesh is well-equipped to manage severe weather like any other advanced country such as the U.S. Tropical cyclones, especially during the "cyclone season" starting in late April, pose the biggest threats and challenges for Bangladesh. For example, "Cyclone Remal" in 2024 has been crowned the costliest known tropical cyclone in our history. The U.S. Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) began tracking the cyclonic circulation system in the Bay of Bengal on May 21st, and by May 24th, issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert (TCFA).

In conclusion, while Bangladesh has faced significant challenges in the past, we have made great strides in disaster preparedness and response. 🙏

Guys pull up the legend has uploaded!
I'm here I'm here
been there done that
WE BE WATCHING MORE TORNADO VIDS WITH THIS ONE!!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for not calling me babe
Bangladesh? Wow Hank. That’s one messed up place!
Not many people in America know about how many bad tornadoes have happened in Bangladesh, or even how meteorologically-supportive that area is for tornadogenesis. The Ganges River valley is like Tornado Alley's angry little brother. Fascinating how many tornado alleys there are in the world. Great vid
A Tornado valley is a tornado valley. Give these people some tornado sirens and storm shelters!
They are ill prepared that is what you should take from this video.
@@Justyouraveragechaosenjoyer And give them an education on what these things are.
Bangladesh also has a tragic history of intense, super deadly cyclone/hurricanes. It is estimated that the Bhola Cyclone in 1970 killed over 500,000 people. 😔
Sadly, I think even with shelters and warnings, they would have a higher death toll per tornado simply because of the crazy population density and relatively poor construction. But yea, they gotta get some warning systems and shelters all the same! (I'm actually not sure how much that has or has not happened in recent years).
Unfortunately a big part of the problem Bangladesh has is not only the dense population but the fact that a good bit of said dense population lives in poverty. They can't afford to make well-built homes or shelters so they cobble together whatever they can with what little they have. It's less that all the tornadoes there are terrifyingly bad and more that a lot of people live in the equivalent of a US trailer park in the 1960s. No shelters, no warnings, nowhere to run. I can't imagine the absolute chaos and horror these storms cause when they occur.
The best tornado channel on TH-cam. There’s not even a close second.
Swegle studios 🥺
Weatherbox has all of them beat, ngl
@@clay5083 Except for Hank
tornadotrx is pretty good
Agree- there are a ton of similar channels, but none of them have the poetry and southwestern ambience of this one.
Hank’s studio must smell of dusty trails and a thousand sunsets. What a legend.
And a guitar
and leather bound books...
And bananas
And snakes
And dung beetles.
Watching a Pecos Hank video within 30 seconds hits different
Facts bro
and after 4 years too
@@demti2 and after almost 10 years here lol
He’s literally that one TH-cam you really love watching but never uploads😭😭
@@TEENYcharma he uploads more often than you'd think. Considering how often he's out chasing and he's gotta edit everything
The visual quality of this channel will never cease to amaze me
Unfortunate fact - the deadliest tropical cyclone (hurricane) globally also hit Bangladesh - it’s estimated half a MILLION people died in 1970 from a tropical cyclone. Remarkable given the topography of the region.
Still today, Bangladesh still has massive casualties from even weak tropical cyclones. What does Mother Nature have against this tiny country?
@@kyrios5536 I guess she doesn't like density?
From what I've heard from another weather youtube video, the main reason it was as deadly as it was was because at the time Bangladesh was still a part of Pakistan, and the Pakistani leader felt they wouldn't vote for him so he made sure no warning was issued so that the cyclone would get rid of them, thus securing his win in the election (he lost because it was found out what he did, but he decided to stay in power anyway)
Edit: no idea why it double posted
What does this country have against itself???
Bangladesh is a country with most of its land barely above see level. When a flood or hurricane hits, there is no high ground to get to.
Its not their fault that they are overpopulated in area perfect for both supercells that produce tornadoes and cyclones
I really like the fact that people are talking about tornadoes in Bangladesh. Bangladesh (and by extension ALL of South Asia) has seen some of the most devastating weather events in modern history and yet no one is mentioning them. Really appreciate this video!
I guarantee a big part of why we don't hear as much about it here in the states is the language barrier and, related to that, getting footage from those areas.
They get mentioned all the time, man. I think you're just looking in the wrong places, tbh.
Hope you’re well Hank! It’s always a joy to see that alert pop up & hear your voice again. Take care and thank you, as always!
Great Video! Currently a meterology student at WKU. Hank is definately a huge source of inspiration. Thank you Hank!
Appreciate it Crooner.
@@PecosHank ❤️
It's illegal to be this early to a Pecos Hank video!
Bro really is the master of danger noodles, he chases tornadoes and handles snakes!
I'll only handle Chicago snakes...
I will refrain from my usual fawning & just say your videos are always appreciated & I learn something every time you post. Thanks!
I'll refrain from elaborating. how much it means to me that you enjoy the vids and take the time to chime in. Cheers Cam!
@@PecosHankVery cool Mr Pecos Hank!!!
Out of all the time Hank uploads it’s when I’m under a tornado watch. Lmao
Edit: in Mississippi 😊
@@Smokeyjoedamanedamythdalegend shit that means it could come up to missouri
Best wishes to you and all those getting that storm. I will be thinking of you all.
You must be in southern Mississippi or the coast because Francine triggered tornado watches for us
Hank is the only guy i know to talk about something as terrifying as tornados and still sound calm and soothing 🙃
0:57
I was on the same road as you looking at the damage a few days later... lucky from what i saw not too many houses were damaged were you were. Stay safe out there, and keep on chasing!
Although sadly a mobile home was crumpled up. From what it looks like it was a office from a nearby construction of a neighborhood
@@TexanRoosterSSC dang. :/
Bangladesh had both the deadliest tropical cyclone in history and the deadliest tornado in history, wow
That’s interesting!!
The insane population density mixed with poor infrastructure will do that.
Kinda terrifying to live there and be aware of it.
@@rodrigofreitas3288 True
Population density plays a big role in this kind of tragedy. Mississippi has a density of 63.2 per square mile while Bangladesh is 514.7 per square mile. If tornado alley in the US had that kind of pop density we would see devastating numbers. Thanks for the new video, I'm definitely a stalker for when you post :D
As always, Hank, thank you for your videos. Your videos got me interested in tornadoes and severe storms.
Sending much love, Hank. We appreciate you. Happy trails. 😊
Thanks for the informative video Pecos Hank ! Shoutout to everyone who made this video possible. Your hard work doesn’t go unappreciated.
It’s interesting to see what other parts of the world have tornadoes. I didn’t know the US didn’t hold the most deadly tornado. Amazing as always!
They can happen nearly anywhere, weather patterns permitting; some areas have geographies more conducive to forming these weather patterns than others. Patagonia, Bangladesh, and the Great Plains are the major tornado hot spots.
Soooooo at 0:14 the automated captions say 'Despite the high burrito count, the death toll has been surprisingly low.' And I thought that was very funny.
He actually does them himself on every video, that's been an ongoing gag for a while now.
I've had a few burritos that have tried to kill me before 🤷
Ok and ur point is tf are u on about u 12 year old child 💀
@@Footballfan424 What are you even saying
@@Real_Mick3y6 That's really funny lol.
Man it's been years I have been watching you amazing videos!🤩
even though my year is going terribly so far, you never fail to bring me smiles & informative content, thanks for being one of the little things i look forward to, hank
awesome video, Hank, I knew the stats about poor Bangladesh before, and why it has such powerful Burritos too. Their Burrito season is very short, luckily, and they are very slowly working on improving the warning systems, and trying to improve infastructure so less people will die in the next, inevitable Burrito attack.
What about those German Burritos, and the ones in Italy, especially that waterspout swarm that came ashore in Sicily in the 1500's? Deadly Burritos have been eating people for a long time, scary!
174 million people in an area the size of Oklahoma. Luckily tornadoes are pretty rare rare there. Ever grateful for ya Baldevi.
Always making amazing content Hank, keep on keeping on!
The vast majority of cars available in 1925 couldn't outrun the Tri-State Burrito, even on an actual paved road. Not only was there no escape, many observers said it just looked like a roiling cloud instead of a wedge or funnel. "That's a heck of a dust storm coming, Martha!"
Read the testimonies of TST survivors while watching footage of El Reno 2013; the parallels are eerily uncanny.
Missed seeing you, Mr. Hank! You're the best in the business!
my great grsndma was a young mother at that point of the 1925 Tri State tornado. She survived, being lucky, but she never had a house without a storm cellar after that pointl
I’d heard about the 1989 tornado in Bangladesh before, but had no idea how many other notable ones there were in the country. Hopefully their warning systems are more up to date nowadays.
Probably not. It’s a poor country. I wish we could send the Peace Corps and some meteorologists to help them set up sirens and radars and computers with predictive capabilities.
Main reason of tornado in Bangladesh are so deadly because people in Bangladesh don't even know Bangladesh got tornadoes.And most time they occurs in rural but densely populated areas.That's why should give more warning and knowledge to people there about tornadoes.
From India . All I can say is , unlike in the US , there are no guaranteed seasonal patterns of Tornadoes here , unlike Cyclones ( Pre Monsoon cyclone season in May & Post Monsoon Cyclone season from October till December , with occasionally one or two strong cyclones in Arabian sea during monsoon season ) . Compared that to Tornado , they are like One or Two confirmed Tornadoes in Indian subcontinent alone anually . Maybe 5 or 6 if the local weather is strong .
NGL Bangladesh was the last place I expected those super deadly tornados to be in. Its always so cool watching hanks videos and learning stuff!
Finally Another Hank Post! You’re awesome Hank!
0:30 I live in Dallas and I remember seeing this storm on radar. That hook echo made my heart drop.
I live in north Frisco, one breeze the wrong way and I would have been cooked
@Qubic_ I was very worried for the Frisco/Mckinney area that night. It was bad enough Valley View got hit the worst. Thankfully it didn't intensify in that area.
@@Qubic_ I live in Little Elm same here
I recently learned of how devastating tornadoes are in Bangladesh from watching Carly WX. However, I had no idea _that many_ human beings had been killed in that time frame there. And as Carly correctly reminds everyone, it isn’t _just_ the deaths, but the horrific, life-long injuries the survivors suffer that matters.
Thank you for also bringing further attention to this, Hank.
Pecos Hank is back baby! Happy trails!
Geniunely my favorite channel on youtube, so chill and fun to watch while eating. Much love man 💟
Hello Hank! I’ve been a viewer since the pandemic and I just wanted to say you’re my favorite storm chaser and I love every one of your videos. Keep safe on your travels!!
Hello Hank, I wanted to say, thank you, you've always been one of my favorite chasers even as a toddler, and I'm glad you're still uploading today. Thanks for the brilliant content.
Thanks for joining the journey Leo.
pecos has such nice accent,good likable story telling and he even puts the effort in to convert things from emperial to metric. you dont see maby channels do that unfortunetly
Thanks for the video hank
As an OK native, my wife won't watch your vids, but she LISTENS to all of them. I'm a Texan, but she prefers your accent to mine... Says she could listen to you read the phone book.
Why just Ok? You are a Great native!!!
@@MichaelRei99 LMAO.... I wrote a whole reply until I "got it"... Ty, I like to think we're both great natives. She is still freaked out by tornado vids though. Me? I grew up in the Texas Hill Country. We didn't get as many there.

Pecos "Quality not Quantity" Hank strikes again!
As soon as Hank uploads i finally recorded my first lightning of 2024. A distant storm over the North Sea. I originally thought they were sprites but ive got no way of confirming or denying without footage.
you know it's a good day when pecos hank uploads
Just what I needed after work...leftover pizza, cold beer, and a Pecos hank video❤
0:14 "Despite the high burrito count, the death toll has been surprisingly low." Thank you closed captions that's exactly what Pecos Hank was talking about 🙏
It's got to be fate. After work yesterday, wife and I went and saw Twisters.
After work today, I get home to be treated to Pecos Hank.
It's a beautiful thing.
Was the movie any good?
@@evilsharkey8954 I had fun with it. To be fair, though, the original is immensely nostalgic for me since I used to watch it with my mom all the time when I was young. The new one gets pretty ridiculous at times, there's a heavy mix of really dumb nonsense with a sprinkling of references to the known science, but if you can turn off the brain for a bit then it's s fun time. And if you can't, then it's still fun to laugh at the silly things they got wrong or the full on Sci-Fi type stuff they made up. Fun either way IMO.
@@TheManBehindtheScreen If I could tolerate two people flapping in the wind of an EF-5 tornado without being shredded to a pulp, I can probably handle what this one has to offer. Twister is a popcorn flick.
@@evilsharkey8954 exactly, and Twisters is in the same vein. Way I see it, if you like the first one, you'll probably like the second, too, even though some of the stuff they do in it is objectively dumber.
Let’s go u posted! This is very terrifying tbh.
Hello Hank! I’ve been watching your videos for maybe about 8 years now. And i gotta say, you deserve a lot. Your videos are probably the only documentaries I watch, because the work you put into your documentaries never fails to amaze me. You put your life on risk just for us. Also, Greetings from Turkey! 🇹🇷
Thanks for the reminder that devestating tornado events occur in places other than the U.S.. Great video. Good to see ya!
Not a single disllike. Keep doing awesome videos Pecos! Always love it having you pop in my feed. We never know in Kansas how things will shape up to be until the last minute..
Pecos Hank thank you so much for being not only my number one favorite tornado chaser but you’re a teacher, a mentor and a friend. Your videos captivate everything from fascination to grief, heart-wrenching moments and wisdom that the public can learn from. I sincerely congratulate you. Greetings from Houston, Texas.
-Maximiliano Krays- 🇻🇪
I was thinking, I need some Pecos Hank time!!! He never disappoints!
We all need Pecos Hank time anytime. Happy trails.
Hello, i'm a huge fan from South Brazil, i knew you went to Uruguay before, supercells aren't very common in South America. The last time a tornado crossed in my city's rural area was in 2017, it was an EF1 like tornado. I really love your work, hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷
Cheers from Texas Matt.
Interestingly, Patagonia is one of the very few tornado hot-spots in the world.
The legend is back
You know its a good day when Pecos Hank uploads
Gotta love it when Pecos Hank uploads!
It’s a miracle how far warnings have come for tornados. I just hope one day soon we can get to a point where even if an EF5 tornado goes through a populated area there are no deaths
Makes me feel a bit more cosmopolitan, if not more safe! Thanks, Hank! 🌪️
Always a treat to watch Pecos Hank up load a video! Somewhat gruesome information, but informative and interesting to hear more on science of Tornadoes and other Coubtries experience with Tornadoes, Thank You Sir and much luck to you and your family. HAPPY TRAILS!
It’s always a good day when Pecos Hank uploads
Always a good day when you upload! Thanks Hank
Thank you Hank for the History of some of the worst tornadoes. I love your videos.
Be safe out there.
He’s got to be the best storm chaser and storm videographer out there! Love your videos man!
I love your channel! You're #1 in my top 10 of tornado channels :D
Ohmygod, Hank! I started crying when I heard your voice! I've missed you so much! I'm so happy you're back!
It's a damn good day when Pecos Hank uploads!
A new Pecos Hank video is always a great way to end a day
Kinda wish this was alittle longer. I still love these videos❤
Thank you Sir! Stay safe out there.
Stay safe out there hank ❤
I genuinely get excited to see a pecos post
I have heard of that tornado in Bangladesh, Another awesome video as always, Will never stop watching your channel!!!
Wake up bestie, Hank posted another amazing and informative video! Thanks for being an awesome inspiration in both science and music!
You’re the best Tornado/wearher TH-camr ever! Keep up your good work!
I've been binge watching Pecos Hank's videos for the past week, so glad I got to this video early
Dropping everything to watch my favorite TH-camr
I freaked out when I saw the notification amazing video, Hank!
Thanks for your calm and professional approach to documenting stressful, potentially catastrophic events.
Always a good day when pecos uploads
Gotta say, i’m loving the design of the visual effects, maps, and other data in this video. Not sure if you edited this yourself, but it looks great.
Love your videos, you were the one who always made me intrested in going outside during a storm just to look at clouds or lightning and one time I actually saw a funnel forming just above my house, it was a pretty big one but it didn’t completely form
Whooooo let's go! New Pecos Hank drop means a good time.
My grandfather was 5 years old and lived just a bit north of the Tri-State's path. He passed away in 2022 and I really regret not asking him about it...
Hey Hank your videos have made me become more interested in the weather and one day I hope to learn more about becoming a storm chaser like you!!!
Pecos Hank Uploaded!!! I love the King Contrary Man song! Also love the video man, keep it up!
Love these informative videos. We need more of them!!!
If Pecos uploaded You know my Day is Great💖🌟
I’ve been watching you from Canada from 5 years old! its been 7 years I’ve been watching you, and this video is just mesmerizing! Keep it up! ❤🎉
you should make a documentary on how we rate tornadoes that are during a hurricane
I had a 6th sense last night that Pecos Hank was going to drop a video tonight. Lo and behold my intuition was correct!! Totally made my day!
Amazing visualisation animations. These are incredible. Please keep doing them!
hank you don’t understand how excited I get when you post a video I genuinely love when you post and can’t wait to rewatch all your tornado year recaps again
Oh goodness, here REAL early. Right as I was about to eat dinner. Great timing to match your chasing! Cheers!
Watching new Hank uploads is like experiencing a game you hadn’t played in a year after it received a ton of updates
It’s always fresh and entertaining no matter how many times you watch him
Edit: now that I think about it, it feels like I’ve seen this video already. Reupload possible?
Edit2: nvm it’s just the tri state part that I’ve seen on one of his other videos
Thanks for watching that section again. It had to be in there.
I always get so happy when Pecos posts new videos. My dream one day is to tornado chase with him🥺🌪️🌫️⛈️
Always a treat seeing a new upload from Hank. Thanks for making such quality content for so long. I've learned so much about tornadoes that I never would've learned otherwise!
Bangladesh is scary with how densely populated they are, my heart goes out to everyone who lost their lives and family lives who were killed all across the world, not to mention Bangladesh’s population is getting worse as immigrants are coming in 😢
Oh wow, it seems that particular problem is happening to so many countries lately :( legal or illegal? I can't imagine wanting to go to Bangladesh. It says a lot that the government has either never cared to mandate that its population have better buildings and better defenses against these devastating tornados...either never cared to do it, or been financially unable to do it. The houses aren't built with tornado basement shelters - how hard can it be to dig out a basement if you're building even a low-quality basic house? Maybe I'm just too privileged here in America, used to houses with plenty of building codes and regulations involved in their construction; to understand how badly off they are...I don't know.
