Some of this early footage of the helical motion and multiple-vortices is absolutely breathtaking...and terrifying. That Alberta twister was also highly visible and the still photos really give you a scale of the type of beast they were dealing with.
@@winnienguyen4420 Given how the EF scale works and the types of buildings that were hit I doubt they'd even classify it as an EF4. Not to start a debate but they classed El Reno 2013 as an EF3 and it had some of the fastest windspeeds measured, only exceeded by Moore 1999.
@@quorthonschuldiner5197 recent history of Tornado's having multiple indicators of extremely high end EF4 damage as in 200mph indicators all bunched up together . see Rochelle-Fairdale, IL EF4 Tornado by this same creator and you'll know why I highly doubt that if they were rating that tornado today on the EF scale that it would receive the same rating.
Gosh, I miss the old Weather Channel. I used to watch it non-stop as a kid/teenager, especially during hurricane season or tornado outbreaks. Your videos, and some others I follow as well, have definitely more than made up for what’s been missing since they went to their current model. Thank you for all of your hard work!
CARLY!! AHHH thank you for covering the 1987 Edmonton Tornado. My dad lived in edmonton during that tornado, didn't touch his part of the city, but he was a roofer and said he got a lot of work in the weeks and months following from the damage left behind. Absolutely devastating for the families impacted. I live a few hours away from the city now and everyone still talks about this tornado!
fellow edmontonian here , i wasnt alive when this happened . 5 years too early for me but my parents did live through it . they told me stories about what it was like
Omg!! I always wanted to hear you talk about Black Friday! I lived in Edmonton and was five when that Tornado hit. It was the whole reason I have an obsession with tornadoes. We were going to Vancouver Island and hit an awful thunderstorm in the rockies. My relatives were phoning our home phone in Edmonton, but we were long gone. My parents didn't think something like this was possibly in Alberta, so we actually watched it on the news when we got to my uncle's place until they were freaking and said shut it off. I grew up close to the Evergreen trailer park. It was a very big deal in Edmonton and I am so glad to see it mentioned.
One tornado from the 1980’s I was hoping you covered here (or possibly in a future video) is the Teton Wilderness F4 tornado in 1987. What’s really surprising about this twister is that it formed at a high altitude within the mountains in Wyoming. Most mountain tornadoes don’t get this violent. And while there’s no photo of the tornado, there’s pictures of the damage it did on forests.
I really wish one of these tornado history channels would do an entire video on Barneveld. I don't think enough people know about Barneveld, nor are they aware of just how frightening that situation was. It was pretty much a nightmare come true... a ferocious monster of a twister that annihilated a small, peaceful town without much of any warning, just after everyone went to bed for the night. I'm from Michigan, so I'm familiar with those stormy June nights in the Midwest. Everything seems beautiful and peaceful as the sun sets, until you're ripped out of your sleep some time after midnight by huge storms. When I was a kid, I would turn my little radio on whenever those late night storms would sneak up, praying that there wouldn't be any tornado warnings. After reading about Barneveld, I realized what a blessing it is for a community to get any kind of heads-up
@@RikkiSpanish I live in Wisconsin and remember Barneveld I believe it was rated EF5 also the Oakfield EF 5 in 1996. Wisconsin is overlooked on these channels.
@@SuziSPSquirrel yee the Barneveld Tornado was an F5 still can't believe seeingnthe aftermath of what it did to that town sad for the 9 lives lost but amazingly many others survived
I was driving though Niles one day and stopped at the Dollar General in the new Park Plaza shopping center. They rebuilt a new one on top of the old one. I saw the memorial that was there and didn’t know what it was for. I walked over to it and read the names of the 9 people lost in the plaza that day. That lead me to doing some research and ever since I’ve been a huge weather nerd
The Niles/Wheatland funnel is infamous. It's a perfect example of how not all F5/EF5 necessarily have to be a mile wide wedge. Thank you so much for covering it.
The niles tornado on may 31 1985 went by only 2 miles from me, I was sitting on my porch and I heard it pass by and wasn't sure what it was at first, it was totally devastating .
Hi Carly! I hope you're feeling much better!! I am originally from Niles OH and lived right next to the Eastwood Mall from the video. That tornado is pretty legendary in that area.
As always, a well researched video I enjoyed. However, there was a 1982 tornado that had an impact on local history. The Marion Tornado (F4, 10 dead) was the headliner of an outbreak. Having grown up in this area, I have met multiple people with a story about it. The mayor of Marion, who was in office for 50+ years, was in an automobile that was thrown by the tornado. I can tell you that that tornado led to people of that generation being involved in the process of better tornado warnings in an area that has seen everything from the Mayfield Tornado all the way back to The Great Tri-State Tornado.
Carly you are an absolute gem. You really cover these majestic storms in great detail. I can tell you're passionate and your knowledge of tornadoes is second to none. Thank you for the great content, keep doing your thing girl
Thank you for covering the Niles F5. I was a small child when the tornado went through the area. I lived 15+ miles south of the area where it went through. However, I had family that was affected before it exited Ohio and entered PA. The town of Hubbard was hit pretty hard as well and I had a great aunt and uncle that had their house damaged(they had no injuries). On top of the Niles tornado that damaged their house. They also owned some property and a cabin in Tionesta, PA. Which was also damaged from a tornado from this same outbreak. I remember seeing the damage from both tornados as a kid. I remember going to their house the day it happened and was amazed at what happened to the trees and all of the houses. We also stayed at the cabin in PA many times after. I remember even 10 years after and you could still see where it went through the forest and cleared the trees for miles and miles. I would greatly appreciate if you could dedicate an entire video on the May 30th, 1985 outbreak. The Niles F5 has become the forgotten F5.
Thank you for all the videos this year! I found your channel after seeing you in some of Ryan Hall’s streams and love your factual and human approach to these terrible events. Hope your channel continues to grow!
I don't know about the rest of you fine people but I thoroughly enjoyed this. Covering off named storms even that monster Wisconsin storm. This was just so well done again, thanks for helping with my massive craving.. Merry Christmas 🙏
Thanks for covering the niles/wheatland tornado, at the end of the video,my cousins house was being hit, completely leveled,sucked the anchored furnace out of the basement, I use to shop at the Eastwood Mall,it is still there, luckily when it hit the skating rink in Niles there was only a few people there, they survived, an hour later it would have been packed with kids, it was skate night. That tornado threw a train car over 200 yards
Hey Carly! Love your videos! The 1980s had me thinking about a tornado that hit the town that I currently live in. If you ever get the chance to look up the Kalamazoo tornado from 1980 it’s quite fascinating! I believe the first amateur video of a tornado was filmed during the event, would love to see your take on it! Love you and your content! I hope you have a happy new year! 💕
I moved to Canada/Toronto in 2019 and I actually had no idea we even got tornadoes here until Barrie was "regularly" in the news for tornado outbreaks! Feels like its only a matter of time before Toronto itself receives one
The best part is that the watertower is still standing. According to my grandpa, after the tornado hit they went down to look at the damage and a $1 bill was lodged under the base of the tower, meaning that it had been picked up at one point but still managed to stay standing. I love biking down to Barneveld and looking at that silly watertower.
Great video! Hope this becomes a series! Also wasn't it the Ivanovo outbreak where they built towns in where the tornado cleared the forest? P.S. Merry Christmas 🎄!!!!!
I can't get over how your cadence reminds me of another TH-camr (who also was excellent, but different subject matter) - Cayleigh Elise. Your videos are great! Very informative and interesting. Keep up the wonderful work!!!
I really enjoy your channel. Your detailed information and extensive research, and your clear , precise communication of your facts accompanied by your empathy and compassion for the victims and their tragedies is a gift to all of us who want to educate ourselves on tornadoes and history
I just started watching your channel and wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed it and how much I have learned. I was raised in Kansas and was in two tornadoes there. Now I live in Texas where no one has storm shelters. You explain things very well for lay persons like myself. Would you do a show about Omaha, Nebraska where 3 tornadoes hit the city in the same night? Thank you and good work!
The Niles system (5.31.85) passed near to the town i lived in. I was about 16 miles South of Erie PA. I did not see or hear it but the cloud cover was as ominous as I have ever seen. We had heavr rain and baseball sized hale stones. A nearby town was all but flattened. The tornado was reported to be an F4. Afterwards, I took seriously every tornado bullitin I heard. It's the reason I watch videos like yours. It was the near miss, I suppose, that fascinates me. It's odd because I lived through two earthquakes and more dangerous snow and ice storms than I can remember or count
I distinctly remember the Edmonton tornado. I lived 30 mins away from the whole thing in New Sarepta AB. To this day I still believe it should have been rated an F5 (or an EF5)
Another Wisc tornado that made history!! ::: April 4, 1981, an unusual and deadly anticyclonic F4 tornado struck West Bend, Wisconsin. It killed three people, and injured another 53. The tornado was largely unexpected and the storm that produced it did not display features of a typical severe storm!
You need to do a video on the 1979 South western Ontario tornado. It spawned east of Embro, tracked through the southern side of Woodstock, and leveled a small hamlet called Oxford Centre and couple of other towns. I wasn't around for it. My parents both were, specifically my dad. The farm he grew up on almost got leveled by the Hickson-Bright F3. We live right on the damage path and you can still find debris from barns in the forests around the area, one tree of which on our property still has a piece of corn crib sidding wrapped around it.
The Barneveld Tornado is an interesting yet deadly event especially with it happening at night with so many people asleep even though 9 people died it could have been worse but still sad there were loss of lives
Just wanna say your music for this one is on point! The whole electronic theme just feels so right with the subject matter. A+ on choosing Tesseract for some of the other videos as well, Cody Martin is awesome!
The stoughton tornado which is not featured on this one but shows up when the damage amounts list shows up. That was in 05. My mom happened to be in that town that day. Has photos. She was about a half mile away from where that hit. She was lucky that day :-)
its so wild hearing you mention barrie, because nobody talks about the tornados barrie gets. its not super frequent but it isnt uncommon either. overall big respects
Once I hit about 9 or 10, so 1991 or 1992, all I watched on tv was Red Sox baseball on NESN and The Weather Channel.... I remember they used to have weather lessons which were pretty cool.
Merry Christmas! I was wondering out of curiosity, but is there a chance that you could do a documentary of the night of the twisters? This happened to Grand Island Nebraska in early June of 1980. There’s book influenced about, but I haven’t found a documentary or informational video about it yet. I think you’d find this one very interesting!
I lived in Fond du Lac County when the Oakfield tornado happened and I never realized how bad it actually was and how much worse it could have been until I started watching these videos on your channel.
I live in Kalifornistan. We don't see tornadoes here but on very rare occasion. I did once see an F2 from my uncles combine when I was 4. I'm 60 now and remember it like it just happened. I'l stay here.
Off topic a bit but like you, my favorite fighter is the F-4E and the other is the F-106. GREAT memories of Galena AFS and McChord AFB. Take care and keep up with the WX Alert radio batteries!
This was great, thanks. Growing up the 1980 Grand Island, NE outbreak or "The Night of the Twisters" was the local legend and how parents and schools taught tornado safety in my area.
What an awesome compilation. The 80’s was quite the decade Ps I was definitely jamming out to the song in the intro as well 🤟😄🤟 Merry Christmas to you and yours
!! my older brother and his mom were living in that trailer park at the time of the Edmonton F4! He was 5 and was thrown into a tree, but otherwise thankfully unharmed; sadly many other families were not as lucky :(
Carly, I love your videos so much!!! And thank you for covering notable Tornadoes from my home country. I live in Toronto but Barrie isn’t considered part of the Greater Toronto area. It’s about an hour drive northwest of us. We were hit closer to Toronto on August 20th 2009 during Ontario’s largest tornado outbreak when two F2 tornadoes struck Vaughan just north of Toronto. Keep up the great videos, looking forward to the next one!
I remember one of my mum’s best friends telling me a story about how, way back in the 1960’s whilst she was visiting her daughter in Calgary (I think), a tornado warning went off and she, her husband and daughter were underneath a heavy table looking out towards the French windows. They saw this twister rip up 2 massive trees at the end of the garden and they thought that was it, it’s going to take the house and them with it, but by a miraculous stroke of luck, the tornado turned away from the property and obliterated houses further around the estate. That friend eventually emigrated to Canada in the late 80’s and lived out the remainder of her & her husband’s years there, passing away in the 1990’s at around 87/88 years old.
This series is amazing!!! Bruna back si ma y memoria of watching the weather channel all the time (anyone else used to that..? lol) and memories of these tornadoes that were aired/ found in books and so on!
I can't believe you haven't covered the western Kentucky tornado of 2021. The longest tracking tornado since the mid 70s. F4 with winds close to 200 mph, killed 57 people, injured many more, absolutely destroyed whole towns or big parts of them, and was put under a state of emergency. My town of 2000 or so people lost 2/3 of its homes, mine had its roof ripped off. The December 10th outbreak of 2021 deserves to be recognized. Our town is still trying to recover. Some people moved away and refuse to come back. I hope my little town doesn't die, I love it here.
How about the Huntsville AL F4 tornado from November 1989 that was completely unexpected and killed so many on their way home from work sitting in red light traffic. You could do a whole vid on that one.
It is never talked about, but the grandvalley tornado formed over Arthur Ontario first and tore up farmland, destroyed a house trailer, livestock and caused maybe f2 damage, all along west Luther, parallel to hwy 89 . The sky was green, we had hail, north wellington township lost hydro for days, and I missed my senior prom. Our high-school Mount Forest District High school and Arthur District HS were out Monday and Tuesday to help clean up. Mt forest went on to Grand Valley to help later that day
Great video. The Edmonton tornado got me interested in tornadoes. I was 8. Three of my classmates were visiting Edmonton when this happened. Luckily they all made it out ok.
I never heard it called Black Friday outbreak. I was living in NW PA at the time (Crawford County) where most of the tracks cluster on your map right next to Centerville PA. I have never seen such weird weather before or since.
A good book on the May 31st 1985 tornado outbreak is "Tornado Watch 211". I remember that outbreak. I lived southeast of where the tornadoes stopped. May 31st is a tradition time for crazy severe weather in western Pennsylvania.
5:28 That listing for 1-7-2008 I remember well. I live in the county north of Kenosha, and I remember looking to the west and seeing the clouds spinning really really fast. 9 year old me also thought there was a skeleton shaped cloud, but I'm not certain.
I am SHOCKED that I have never heard of the Niles/Wheatland tornado before (I'm a giant nerd and research almost everything and anything). As you can see on the path map, there's a little town called Grove City in Pennsylvania and that's where I'm from and I've NEVER heard of this. I grew up going to all of those towns for their various businesses. It's not surprising to me that people died because I don't recall EVER actually going into a basement for a tornado, and I only recall 2 or 3 times where we were actually concerned about a tornado. It's just not taken as seriously in our area. The hardest thing we usually go through is wind storms that cause extended power outages but it's almost never more than 5-7 days for everything to be up and running again. I was born in 98 but my mom was born and 78 and now it makes so much sense why she was always so scared of tornadoes, because there were a bunch in our general area when she was little!
I have much more info on the Dolores tornado from Uruguay if you are still planning to make a video on it, respond and I will share! Amazing video btw.
The Edmonton tornado, is it the northernmost F3/4 event (or at least in north america)? The city is pretty far north, roughly 7 hours to the canada/US border. Also the fact that the tornado tracked *north* through the city is kinda bizarre, since storms typically travel eastwards from the rockies
@carlyannawx your Mandarin pronunciation sounds really good - do you speak Chinese? Love your channel and learning all these fascinating twister tales!! Happy Holidays!
Some of this early footage of the helical motion and multiple-vortices is absolutely breathtaking...and terrifying. That Alberta twister was also highly visible and the still photos really give you a scale of the type of beast they were dealing with.
Completely agree. Also this funnel would have been rated an EF5 today because the winds were clocked in at 260 mph.

We live right on the damage path and you can still find debris from barns in the forests around the area, one tree of which on our property still has a piece of corn crib sidding wrapped around it.
Been dying for a tornado documentary
The Barneveld Tornado is an interesting yet deadly event especially with it happening at night with so many people asleep even though 9 people died it could have been worse but still sad there were loss of lives
Just wanna say your music for this one is on point! The whole electronic theme just feels so right with the subject matter. A+ on choosing Tesseract for some of the other videos as well, Cody Martin is awesome!
The stoughton tornado which is not featured on this one but shows up when the damage amounts list shows up. That was in 05. My mom happened to be in that town that day. Has photos. She was about a half mile away from where that hit. She was lucky that day :-)
I hope you feel better, Carly. I love your tornado videos they are really good 😃
its so wild hearing you mention barrie, because nobody talks about the tornados barrie gets. its not super frequent but it isnt uncommon either. overall big respects
Nice choise for the 80s wave type music
Another reminder(besides videotape!) that the 80's were a horrible decade that thankfully I was stoned for the majority of it!
Thank you for all the work you do!! Happy holidays to you and blaze and your family!!
Once I hit about 9 or 10, so 1991 or 1992, all I watched on tv was Red Sox baseball on NESN and The Weather Channel.... I remember they used to have weather lessons which were pretty cool.
Merry Christmas! I was wondering out of curiosity, but is there a chance that you could do a documentary of the night of the twisters? This happened to Grand Island Nebraska in early June of 1980. There’s book influenced about, but I haven’t found a documentary or informational video about it yet. I think you’d find this one very interesting!
I lived in Fond du Lac County when the Oakfield tornado happened and I never realized how bad it actually was and how much worse it could have been until I started watching these videos on your channel.
I live in Kalifornistan. We don't see tornadoes here but on very rare occasion. I did once see an F2 from my uncles combine when I was 4. I'm 60 now and remember it like it just happened. I'l stay here.
Off topic a bit but like you, my favorite fighter is the F-4E and the other is the F-106. GREAT memories of Galena AFS and McChord AFB. Take care and keep up with the WX Alert radio batteries!
This was great, thanks. Growing up the 1980 Grand Island, NE outbreak or "The Night of the Twisters" was the local legend and how parents and schools taught tornado safety in my area.
What an awesome compilation. The 80’s was quite the decade
Ps I was definitely jamming out to the song in the intro as well 🤟😄🤟
Merry Christmas to you and yours
!! my older brother and his mom were living in that trailer park at the time of the Edmonton F4! He was 5 and was thrown into a tree, but otherwise thankfully unharmed; sadly many other families were not as lucky :(
Carly, I love your videos so much!!! And thank you for covering notable Tornadoes from my home country. I live in Toronto but Barrie isn’t considered part of the Greater Toronto area. It’s about an hour drive northwest of us. We were hit closer to Toronto on August 20th 2009 during Ontario’s largest tornado outbreak when two F2 tornadoes struck Vaughan just north of Toronto.
Keep up the great videos, looking forward to the next one!
I remember one of my mum’s best friends telling me a story about how, way back in the 1960’s whilst she was visiting her daughter in Calgary (I think), a tornado warning went off and she, her husband and daughter were underneath a heavy table looking out towards the French windows. They saw this twister rip up 2 massive trees at the end of the garden and they thought that was it, it’s going to take the house and them with it, but by a miraculous stroke of luck, the tornado turned away from the property and obliterated houses further around the estate. That friend eventually emigrated to Canada in the late 80’s and lived out the remainder of her & her husband’s years there, passing away in the 1990’s at around 87/88 years old.
This series is amazing!!! Bruna back si ma y memoria of watching the weather channel all the time (anyone else used to that..? lol) and memories of these tornadoes that were aired/ found in books and so on!
Carly, I love your newsy voice. Thanks for reporting
I can't believe you haven't covered the western Kentucky tornado of 2021. The longest tracking tornado since the mid 70s. F4 with winds close to 200 mph, killed 57 people, injured many more, absolutely destroyed whole towns or big parts of them, and was put under a state of emergency. My town of 2000 or so people lost 2/3 of its homes, mine had its roof ripped off. The December 10th outbreak of 2021 deserves to be recognized. Our town is still trying to recover. Some people moved away and refuse to come back. I hope my little town doesn't die, I love it here.
that outbreak on May 31 1985 was my 17th birthday and I remember those in 82 well, the one in Paris and east Tx as they were just west of where I live
Glad you are feeling better, thanks for the post! Stay well, stay safe 🙏
ive never seen multivortex like that edmonton tornado footage that is crazy
Tornadoes of the '50s would be one of the most interesting ones
How about the Huntsville AL F4 tornado from November 1989 that was completely unexpected and killed so many on their way home from work sitting in red light traffic. You could do a whole vid on that one.
It is never talked about, but the grandvalley tornado formed over Arthur Ontario first and tore up farmland, destroyed a house trailer, livestock and caused maybe f2 damage, all along west Luther, parallel to hwy 89 . The sky was green, we had hail, north wellington township lost hydro for days, and I missed my senior prom. Our high-school Mount Forest District High school and Arthur District HS were out Monday and Tuesday to help clean up. Mt forest went on to Grand Valley to help later that day
HELLO??? What the FUCK WHY IS THE INTRO SO FIRE I CANT STOP WATCJING IT
Guy from Niles: "That's a tornado, look at all the papers flying around!"
Tornado: "Bruh, that's a roof...."
That cat is gorgeous
Absolutely the best tornado channel
Great video. The Edmonton tornado got me interested in tornadoes. I was 8. Three of my classmates were visiting Edmonton when this happened. Luckily they all made it out ok.
I never heard it called Black Friday outbreak. I was living in NW PA at the time (Crawford County) where most of the tracks cluster on your map right next to Centerville PA. I have never seen such weird weather before or since.
You need to make more of these...
A good book on the May 31st 1985 tornado outbreak is "Tornado Watch 211". I remember that outbreak. I lived southeast of where the tornadoes stopped. May 31st is a tradition time for crazy severe weather in western Pennsylvania.
Holy shit that's a tornado! That's fantastic!
So optimistic sounding 🤣
5:28
That listing for 1-7-2008 I remember well. I live in the county north of Kenosha, and I remember looking to the west and seeing the clouds spinning really really fast. 9 year old me also thought there was a skeleton shaped cloud, but I'm not certain.
Also helped clean up Bonneville Wisconsin I used to live down used to play softball in bonnneville
I am SHOCKED that I have never heard of the Niles/Wheatland tornado before (I'm a giant nerd and research almost everything and anything). As you can see on the path map, there's a little town called Grove City in Pennsylvania and that's where I'm from and I've NEVER heard of this. I grew up going to all of those towns for their various businesses. It's not surprising to me that people died because I don't recall EVER actually going into a basement for a tornado, and I only recall 2 or 3 times where we were actually concerned about a tornado. It's just not taken as seriously in our area. The hardest thing we usually go through is wind storms that cause extended power outages but it's almost never more than 5-7 days for everything to be up and running again. I was born in 98 but my mom was born and 78 and now it makes so much sense why she was always so scared of tornadoes, because there were a bunch in our general area when she was little!
Fascinating video! Great job and HI BLAZE!!!!
Grand Island Nebraska June 3 1980 is a story hardly told but I loved this video would like to see more videos
The video used for the Niles, OH tornado (“Oh look at the papers”) is actually from PA.
As a Nebraskan, the lack of mention of the 7 twisters that hit Grand Island Nebraska's on June 3, 1980, is slightly disheartening
Hope you have a nice flight and your trip is awesome
I have much more info on the Dolores tornado from Uruguay if you are still planning to make a video on it, respond and I will share! Amazing video btw.
Another amazing video and Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you and Blaze 🙂
The Edmonton tornado, is it the northernmost F3/4 event (or at least in north america)? The city is pretty far north, roughly 7 hours to the canada/US border.
Also the fact that the tornado tracked *north* through the city is kinda bizarre, since storms typically travel eastwards from the rockies
Merry Christmas, Carly. May God have you and your family in His holy keeping.🌪️🌲☃️
Just amazing job!!! Wow what a treat!!
Someone please tell me what the first instrumental is playing at the beginning of the video. So much nostalgia from something I can’t put my finger on
Merry Christmas to you and I sure glad you are doing well
The bloopers at the end 😂
Great Video!! Maybe you could do the 70s😲??
Love watching your videos!!
@carlyannawx your Mandarin pronunciation sounds really good - do you speak Chinese?
Love your channel and learning all these fascinating twister tales!! Happy Holidays!
The 80s New Wave music is great 👌
