I love Oklahoma.
i just watched a different video and they said the wind speed was 318 MPH Which is amazing ;D glad i live in Enid ^.^
That windspeed was recorded nearly 100ft off the ground an it was actually 302 mph (somehow the figure got distorted). But since it was 100 ft above the ground it would have been significantly faster than at ground level..
it was 318. highest recorded wind on earth.
Can’t beleive i was in this.
it passed right by my house and didnt mess one bit up.
it was odd.
According to NOAA it was 302 taken at a point in the tornado nearly 100 ft of the ground where the wind would have been faster than on the ground. It still is the fastest ever recorded. The only winds estimated to be higher are those in a volcanic eruption and a nuclear explosion.
According to NOAA, of which the National Weather Service is a branch, it was 302 and was nearly 100 ft off the ground where it would be faster.
awsomegirl ur lucky and im glad u and ur family/house didnt get harmed cuz tornadows arent predictible they might go 1 way then bullet the other way so u got real lucky.
O ok
yeah tornadoes are odd i lived in witchita at the time tornado hit us at the same day ripped apart our garage but the house didnt get a scratch on it and my bike didnt even move at all and a huge tree was ripped out but our little tree was fine
we lived on 15th, right next to I-35, had to go to an elementary 2 blocks down b/c they had an underground basement. my wife’s aunt’s house was 119 sw, and their house got destroyed. remember watchin this on tha news, and it kept gettin bigger as it approached…..im oraginally from NC, this was the scariest thing i had ever seen…i did see it, that fucking thing was huge! still pray for tha families that lost someone (think it was 44)
I’m pretty sure it was 36 killed
I still use the old Fujita Scale, because the Enhanced Scale has no limit on the Force 5’s maximum speed.
One time I had a dream that there was a tornado that was 2 times bigger than an F-5 and was going about I think 450 mph. It was a scary dream.
No upper bound makes more sense to me. Both scales max out at 5.
there could even be a F6…f7…f8….so on, nothing is impossible…
I lived in Moore when this happened. I was 17 and we lived right off of 12th street where the path of the tornado came through. I seriously thought I was going to die. We had no basement and were huddled in a hallway with matresses over us. we were listening to the radio and the tornado distorted the sound to where it sounded like we were listening to a foreign language. Also, as we were in the eye it was so calm it was erie…I will never forget this day.
therer other chasers that got tthis footage so no ,it as seen and flmed by others
also something to think about , there is a +/- 20 mph in the dow , they think it was higher but the dow has a degree of plus or minus 20 mph.
Except that the categories don’t exist.
why are the weathermen not warning the people in Moore to get out of their homes if they do not have a basement? You cannot survive an F5 tornado (direct hit) without a basement! There will be nothing left and you will die or be seriously mangled. I don’t understand it. Don’t tell the people to hide in their pathetic closets as an F5 monster closes in! Have them drive out of the tornados path to a safer district of the city.
318? Wrong…the highest recorded wind speed on earth was 338 mph last year in NY City (Hillary Clinton’s hot air speech) lol
Because trying to flee your homes is a bad idea as well. Especially for the majority of people who don’t understand storm motion and structure. You have a better chance of of surviving by taking shelter than trying to run from one of those beasts.
This was a scary day in Oklahoma. I was fortunate enough to be just far enough east and south of Oklahoma City that the storm had lost a lot of its punch by the time it got near us.
@jg300gman No, dude… Not a good idea… People would panic. All those people would then clog the streets, cause accidents and make the overall situation worse than it already is. Then, once all those people are out on the street, where are they supposed to go from there? Don’t forget, a large percentage of tornado-related deaths occur in vehicles…
