On Monday afternoon, StormChasingVideo.com Weather Paparazzi Brandon Sullivan was near Tipton, OK where he caught this extraordinary tornado footage. In the start of the video it shows a wide shot of the storm and the tornado on a southward approach to the storm. Brandon zooms into a tight shot of the tornado while he and his chase partners follow the storm. The video then shows a medium to tight shot on a powerful tornado ripping across the ground. This footage shows a text book violent tornado. The footage continues as the tornado travels to the north with both with intense circulation as it traveled across the open country. At one point the large tornado becomes translucent allowing the inner circulation to become apparent. As the tornado moved to the north, it went into the Wichita Mountains in southwest Oklahoma. Brandon tried to keep up with the tornado and in the end of the footage it is from his a GoPro camera mounted on the hood of his truck with a wide angle point of view as he approached the large tornado. He paralleled the the tornado after he stopped to let it pass to the north. To license this footage for broadcast, contact www.StormChasingVideo.com

I dream of living in New Orleans (and I will). I want my brother to live with me, but he says he doesn’t want to die in a hurricane. He thinks that every hurricane is like Katrina. I know that is not the truth, or the atlantic coast would be destroyed. I tell him that they’re not all like that, that they’re just like a thunderstorm that last for a few days. I’ve expierenced many tornadoes and severe storms, so I’m just guessing that’s what they’re like. If every single hurricane destroyed roofs, blew out windows and caused floods what would be the whole point of living there? So, people who have expierenced hurricane (not read about them), what is it like? Every single one that spawns each year can’t cause such terrible damage, or can it?
Ok, I’m looking for a house soon (my first place), I want to know what kind of house will hold up during a sever thunderstorm (including tornadoes). I live in Alabama and we just had a tornado outbreak a few weeks ago. What material should I look for, I HATE vinyl siding. And also should if be slab or crawl space? And one level or two. I feel safer in a two level townhouse. I don’t care about pricing and I am planing on getting a storm shelter built in or outside my house, but I still want my home to be safe so I won’t have to run to shelter every time I hear noise from the sky.
Btw I hate crawl space unless it’s a must have. My aunt has crawl space and she’s had enough rodents, animals and reptiles come in her house to make a zoo. I’m talking about lizards, squirrels, rabbits, even stray cats. And that frightens me lol.
A tornado has leveled parts of Joplin Missouri. 117 deaths confirmed so far. Joplin was a town of 50000 people.
Last year, a hurricane was experience by my family and me for the first time. It was Hurricane Ellen, and much damage to our property and neighborhood was caused by its fierce winds of 200 miles per hour and its heavy rains. The old oak tree in our backyard was uprooted and hurled across the roof of our house, creating a large hole thought which the rain poured in. Our living room was flooded by the water, which rose to a height of three feet. When we began to think that the worst of the storm was over, we heard a loud crash and looked out the window to see that our car had been hit by our neighbor’s fallen tree, caving in the roof and breaking all the windows. Having recently moved to the East Coast from North Dakorta, we thought that a hurricane was little more than a thunderstorm. Next time, when people in our area are advised to evacuate before a hurricane comes, I’m sure our family will be the first to leave.

A rare fire tornado has been seen in the Brazilian state of Sao Paolo. A whirlwind of flame, spiralling several metres high, danced across burning fields, bringing traffic to a halt on a nearby highway. This unusual phenomenon has been caused by a combination of wildfires and strong dry winds following weeks of drought in the country. Authorities in Brazil are struggling to contain the fires and have banned farmers from burning waste from the sugar cane harvest.

I understand that the Weather Service uses two types of alerts: Watches and Warnings.
Watch - conditions are favorable, and a tornado might happen today.
Warning - Seek shelter NOW!
15-20 years ago, a tornado warning meant "there’s a tornado on the ground, seek shelter NOW"
Today, it’s "there’s a thunderstorm spinning overhead. It might produce a tornado, but it often doesn’t".
To me, that shows a need for a third level of alert.
Watch - Don’t plan on spending the day outside.
(whatever the new term is) - Spinning thunderstorm in the area.
Warning - Seek shelter NOW! - Tornado on the ground.

It’s quite the thunderstorm slash tropical storm here where I live, but besides that little detail. I was wondering what are some good animes to watch? That are sort of like Sailor Moon or Card Captor Sakura? And not neccessairly the magic/power aspect of it, though that is good but school life, comedy, romance, drama, slice of life kind of thing? Hmm? So what can I watch?
