Storm chasers Dick McGowan and Andy Gabrielson document two “rope” tornadoes near Neligh and Ewing Nebraska, August 19 2011! These storms also produced destructive hail in the Omaha and Kansas City region! Check out www.livehailmap.com or http for more information!

The backseat passenger was in a scenario that was a bit sketchy and life threatening, therefore his language was loosely restrained. We edited and made the video shorter so you can jump right into the action and is appropriate for all ages.

Do you need a shelter when or if a tornado is in the weather? thanks for any help, as we will be relocating soon

On June 20, 2011, storm chasers Chad Cowan and Jordan Wrecke watched the storm of the day develop from a cumulus cloud into a cyclic supercell that produced at least three tornadoes, including one that was intercepted by the TIV!

Recently in my town there was a tornado that did a lot of damage to my neighborhood. My garage was destroyed, and it and some other debris smashed my car entirely. It was the talk of the small town, and everyone was riding by taking pictures. The first night I was trying to get something out of my car and a reporter tried snapping photos of me. I asked him to not put my picture because I was still very upset about what had happened. He said that he wouldnt. Well, the next two days I made the front page of the paper with the picture he took. Is that illegal? I know there is freedom of press, but I specifically asked him not to…….

Follow us on twitter.com and www.facebook.com One victim was killed by a destructive twister as it swept through Russia’s Far East. 28 others were injured by the huge whirlwind, a natural phenomenon considered rare, not only for the region, but for the whole country. The tornado tore through the center of Blagoveshchensk, tearing roof-tops and balconies from over a hundred buildings, overturning trucks, uprooting trees and ripping out power lines. It raged only for several minutes but eyewitness reported that it caused incredible damage. Most roads have now been cleared, but hundreds of homes are still without electricity.

I’m posting this here knowing that you all love animals. Hanah is a Joplin tornado survivor. As the storm bore down of the home of Kari Wilkes she took shelter in a closet with her dogs Bear and Hanah. The tornado approached and ripped the roof off their home and literally sucked hanah out of her owners arms. The house was completely destroyed… As soon as it was safe Kari began looking for hanah, but with no luck. Two days later a neighbor took a photo of Hanah in the rubble and sent it to Kari. Hanah had made it! The neighbor called the humane society but they arrived too late, hanah had run when sirens came on again. She was spotted once again, one woman even saying she’d fed hanah for three days before she disappeared again. Hanahs owners gave tried everything. Setting out food, their cloths hoping she would come to their scent, stayed over night in tents, set up night vision cameras, had a BBQ hoping to draw her out of hiding, hired a pet detective, had many ‘animal communicator’ readings, distributed thousands upon thousands of flyers and yet hansh is still missing. It’s been two months and her family is not giving up, it breaks their heart knowing hanah is alive but they can’t get to her. All I ask is that you visit her Facebook page and take a look st her photos, share her story and keep your eyes out for her, especially if you live near Missouri. Hanah could be ANYWHERE in the US now. Hundreds of rescuse came in to assist after the tornado, and unfortunately there is no real record of them. Hanah is a solid white American bulldog, she’s got one blue eye and one hazel eye. She is 5 years old and spayed with severe hip dysplaysia. There is a HUGE reward for her, or any tip that leads to her return. You may remain completed anonymous! Please visit her Facebook page and share! You might just be the key to reuniting this family who’s so torn apart! http://m.facebook.com/BringHanahHome?_rdr

On May 22, 2011 a highly destructive and deadly tornado tore through the town of Joplin, MO. Here is video of the tornado entering the southwest side of town, filmed by TornadoVideos.net Basehunters team Colt Forney, Isaac Pato, Kevin Rolfs, and Scott Peake. The team spent hours assisting with search and rescue and transporting victims to local hospitals in personal vehicles.

Today is just not my day. My mom left the computer open because she was downloading facebook photos (of course -.-) I needed to use the computer to check some Sims 3 updates on A WHOLE DIFFEREN’T APP. It wasn’t Safari. Then my mom came in and was like OMG I WAS DOWNLOADING FACEBOOK PHOTOS WHAT DID YOU DO TO THEM WHERE ARE THEY?!?!?! She was acting like a tornado torn down the house. Anyways i said WITHOUT yelling "mooom stop freaking out its fine" and then she slapped my shoulder really hard as if bricks fell on it, then she started yelling crap ._. Before you say, you should’ve asked ur mom to use the computer, you should’ve left the computer alone, etc I never play around with her stuff or close/log out! And if i need to use Safari i open another tab or window. If you think thats bad my mom X’s the stuff i was doing and then she goes on without asking! For example if im watching videos and i go to the kitchen to make popcorn she would X out and go on facebook -_- this also happens with my brother whenever he fixes a snack he always comes back to find my mom going on facebook. Idk where my mom get this from maybe she’s watching more MTV than me idk. P.s after my mom hit me in the shoulder i went upstairs and cried (im on my period sorry for tmi) and my stomach has been bothering meee

Storm chaser Jacob Thumberger captured video of a strong tornado that caused damage on the northwest side of Berlin, North Dakota on the evening of July 17, 2011. This tornado was responsible for EF-3 damage - details here: www.crh.noaa.gov You can follow along with Jacob’s chases LIVE on his website, www.bringonthestorms.com or http

the president said he will come back after he is elected, then he skipped 3 visits to the hispanic annual conference. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0611/57313.html don’t they understand that the president is a very busy man and has no time for them due to the massive workload he has, look at the tornado’s in the midwest, he took 2 weeks to get there to do a photo-op on his way across the nation to play golf. they should be happy he is busy doing the job that he was hired to do.

Initially a weak pencil-like tornado near the Bell-Williamson County line, the funnel rapidly intensified into a 3/4 mile wide multi-vortex storm at around 3:45 PM CDT. Its first damage occurred three minutes later at 3:48 PM CDT in the northwestern portion of Jarrell striking Double Creek Estates. It later moved into a wooded area before dissipating after damaging numerous trees. Grass and soil in fields near Jarrell were ripped out of the ground to a depth of 18 in (46 cm). When the tornado crossed county roads outside Jarrell, it tore a 500-foot (152 m) length of asphalt from the roads. About 40 structures were completely destroyed by the tornado and dozens of vehicles were lifted in the air and tossed, some thrown more than half a mile. Many researchers, after reviewing aerial damage photographs of Double Creek Estates, considered the Jarrell storm to be the most violent tornado, in terms of damage intensity, that they had ever seen. Most of the homes in the tornadoes path were well-constructed and bolted to their foundations, the tornado left only the slab foundations. Several entire families were killed in the tornado, including all five members of the Igo family and all four members of the Moehring family. There were 27 human fatalities in the Double Creek subdivision. In addition, about 300 cattle were killed by the storm. About 10 minutes prior to the main event, eye-witnesses spotted additional tornadoes north and west of Jarrell. Numerous vehicles sought …

For example: There is a christian song called "praise you in this storm" and when my town had a tornado, all the damage photos and under an album named " I’ll Praise You in This Storm…." PLEASE HELP!!
THANKS

Monday was a classic storm chasing day in south central Nebraska as multiple tornadoes hit Hamilton and York counties. We have put together this compilation video from several of our StormChasingVideo.com freelance chasers to show the power and the beauty of the violent tornadoes in Nebraska on Monday. In the first part of the video was shot by Meteorologist Brandon Ivey who is with the TIV or Tornado Intercept Vehicle for Discovery Channels TV show “Storm Chasers”. The video shows some extreme close up tornado footage including one scene where a train is hit by the tornado. The tornado then moves across a road about a quarter mile in front of them while picking up and destroying buildings and power lines in its path. The tornado moved off into a farm field as the TIV crew continued to keep with the storm At one minute and thirty six second into the video, it show the footage from Eric Treece who caught the Bradshaw,NE tornado from near the beginning of its life cycle and continued to chase it until it roped-out or dissipated. The footage by Eric Treece shows a classic tornado that is back lit by as it rips up a farm field. At one point it passes right behind a farm but does not destroy the buildings. Eric keeps on chasing the tornado after it passed by his location until it dissipated. Tony Laubach continues the video at the two minute and fifty four second mark of the video with the tornadoes from Pleasanton, NE. Tony’s video starts with amazing up close footage of a …

This is something I’ve been looking for for quite a while now. I lost this book in a hurricane three years ago (lol), and I have forgotten the title.

What I remember about it was this:

It was a small hardback, and was green or turquoise.
It had a section about Last Island, Louisiana, and the hurricane that destroyed it.
It had a photo (black and white) of an ‘invisible’ tornado funnel.
The section on tornadoes was referred to as ‘The Hurricane’s Deadly Little Sister’ or some slight variation of that.

Not a lot of information to go on, but I cannot remember anything else that could be of use.
The closest title I can find is "Historical Catastrophes: Hurricanes and Tornadoes" by Billye Walker Brown and Walter R. Brown. However, I cannot find photos of this book online, nor the table of contents.

I have a facebook re: photos found in the debris of the Joplin Tornado. I have "liked" a lot of related pages, but when I have a update or info I need to post on other groups, I have to manually go to each page and post the link/info. Is there a way to post to pages I have liked or do I have to go to each one and copy/paste the link?

This takes SO much time, but has to be done!
Thanks!

presiddent obama met with President Ali Bongo of Gabon today in the oval office, it shows ya how good a guy obama is. details on there meeting http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2001593/Barack-Obama-invites-Gabon-dictator-Ali-Bongo-White-House.html

besides being a dictactor who stole billions from his country, obama met him and had a few laughs. this comming from the president who took over 2 weeks to visit the tornado ravege mid west for a photo-op while he was on his way to the golf course

May 24th 2011, after coming really close to a giant wedge tornado in Lookeba Oklahoma, Holy Tornado then raced south to Chickasha were we once again got our visual of the mesocyclone just off to our southwest. Before this thing had condensed all the way to the ground, you could see the concentrated area where the funnel was about to emerge from the meso. It seemed like there was just a cloud of debris on the ground underneath this meso forever until it had finally fully condensed. Thereafter as the twister gets closer, it intensifies dramatically right outside Jeremy’s window. Shortly after this, you see it hit several homes in a small community and also hits a trailor house and lofts it out the back of the twister. We immediately start searching through rubble and debris. Sadly, one person perishes from this destructive twister and there were numerous injuries. May god be with the families that were effected by this and may the recovery process get underway fast and be quickly completed.

This week on Fox News, Eric Bolling Accused the President of " Chugging 40’s " In Ireland while he should be back at home visiting the damaged area’s where tornado’s hit. The Thing is though, last week President Obama did hit damaged area’s. On top of that, he set up FEMA In the area’s that were about to get hammered before going to Ireland. Yet he failed to mention that in his bash. Bush didn’t send Fema into New Orleans until 5 days after the Hurricane struck the coast. Also another failed fact to mention. But the thing is, even if Obama jumped on a Jet and flew back to the area’s that were damaged. Fox News would just accuse him of exploiting a Tragedy for a photo OPP. Like they do whenever he goes anywhere. Recently they called him visiting NY after the death of Osama Bin Laden " disgusting". I mean no matter what he does, their going to attack him for it so why does it matter?

This video is from the EF4 tornado that went through Tuscaloosa, AL on 4/27/11. It was taken from the University Mall parking lot. Probably the closest video to the storm your going to see. www.tuscaloosanews.com www.youtube.com blog.al.com

A tornado has leveled parts of Joplin Missouri. 117 deaths confirmed so far. Joplin was a town of 50000 people.

A young man, in his twenties, came into the store yesterday and showed me his cell phone photo of a tornado he took, it was very close to his home. He said that his friends were also taking photos. I asked him why he did that instead of trying to take shelter somewhere. He said "if it is going to get me it will regardless of what I do." I explained to him that not all homes are destroyed completely, sometimes the air pressure will explode all the windows and the glass will fly into the house in millions of pieces cutting anyone who is in the open (happened at my grandmothers house a minute after she got in the basement. If a person didn’t bleed to death the medical care would be extensive and expensive, not to mention any disabilities such as being blinded by glass.

I have heard others talk this same way, almost always men. Women who have babies and children generally take shelter the best way they can. Why do men think this way?
If we all thought the same way, there would have been hundreds of deaths and thousands of injuries in Mondays tornadoes in Oklahoma, instead of 10 deaths and dozens of injuries.
Talked to my niece yesterday, she went to her grandmother’s below-ground safe room, there were 11 people there and 5 men outside watching the sky. She said all of sudden the men tore down the steps and got in that shelter, they saw debris flying. Talk about wait till the last minute, and then the fear got them.

This was the F5 tornado I recorded from the house which was approximately less than 5miles. Unfortunately, I was not aware (at that time) that this was the tornado the siren was warning us about. Because of the enormous size of this I could not tell if this was a tornado at the time I recorded it. All I knew was that it was a very uncomfortable, unknown, doomed feeling. Unfortunately, the tornado sound was not captured in this film, maybe because of the leaves rustling. But it sounded like a plane that just lifted off the runway but just hovered over me with a jetplane sound. The actual tornado is the last frame where there were lightning strikes inside that black cloud. It actually started from the left corner of my camera but was just, I guess, in shock of the nonstop lightning fearing peoples’ lives out there (before I knew this was the tornado). Showed this film to my husband the next morning and said that I just recorded a tornado! This is one day I will never forget!

My dogs have shelter outside but what if a tornado comes?
is it better for me to lock them up in the shed with food and water too keep them out of the storm or would it be better to let them stay in their usual environment to where they could run away from the bad weather or tornado if they needed too? Someone suggested me leaving them as they as in their usual shelter Just incase they needed to run away they would be able to have some type of chance instead of being shut in somewhere and not being able to run away if they needed?
If this sounds bad to people I am sorry but it’s not like it sounds. My dogs are well cared for, they get fed more then twice a day ( too much actually ) they go to the vet and get their shots and etc I was just thinking because i’ve never been in this situation and we are suposed to have alot of tornadoes heading our way. So please help and NO rude commments i will report you
The dogs Can’t go to the shelter with us I posted this.
Are next door neighbor has a storm shelter we go too but the guy is allergic to dogs and they have 3 kids but i don’t think all the kids are allergic just one but we can’t take the dogs with us and there isnt anywhere else to go

My house is one story and has windows in every room including the bathrooms
…where’s a good place to hide in case of a tornado or hurricane?
