06-22-2023 Highlands Ranch, CO - Large Tornado - Damage Through Town - Trees on Houses

[@kimp.e.8171]

This is how videos should be: limited talking or no talking, steady hand while capturing footage, and offering a wide variety of footage. Good job! Thanks for sharing.

[@PRINCESSDREAMYLYN]

you know there is always a mute button.

[@kimp.e.8171]

@@PRINCESSDREAMYLYNLOL! Yes, I know, but I'm also referring to the footages. Some are shaky and going back and forth, back and forth. This person did everything right, so I was acknowledging them for it.

[@poetcomic1]

That sky looks absolutely BIBLICAL.

[@JohnDoe-xj6mf]

I watched the Oklahoma City storm pass a few hours ago. Colorado would be a strange place to see a tornado. Beautiful area you all live in, happy it was just entertaining

[@melindahall5062]

It was just a hail storm.

[@Reblwitoutacause]

@@melindahall5062I was in the middle of it. You missed it if you think it was just hail. It was not.

[@chuckwilliams6294]

Great footage. Thank you for not feeling the need to comment (in the excited voice of a 15 year old) like 90% of the post event videos we all see on Utube. 👍

[@heatherfitzpatrick9409]

Love your camera. These were clear, steady, and great pictures

[@Grandma7T7]

Wow clearest pictures I've ever seen, that is an amazing camera! I'm Praying for all affected by these crazy tornadoes!

[@gmancolo]

"thoughts and prayers..."

[@SongMom8]

That is a wicked looking storm. 😮

[@Mopar300S]

Crazy how no one was moving with urgency to get from under it

[@suelynrogers]

It creeps up on people before they realize how bad I is. Got caught in a severe hailstorm in Colorado once while traveling. Still have storm fear from it.

[@95Jpollard]

Highlands ranch people aren't the brightest, Coloradans understand this. Their all rich snobby karens

Thanks so much for this footage of my neighborhood. That is our house at 3:06.

Holly hell I remember when Highlands Ranch was a new development...It's freaking huge now!

[@melbabelvis883]

The place is progressive

[@Alchemist39]

Yeah, when I was a kid we moved from Littleton to Highlands Ranch in the mid 90's. Had a new house built there. Flippin' crazy how huge it is now. All over Colorado actually. Too many people 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@williebeamish5879]

@@Alchemist39 Same here in Marquette MI. People from all over the country moving here. We locals can't afford housing now as prices have tripled or more in last few years. And they keep coming. Winters might do some in, though, esp CA and TX folks. Lol

[@Alchemist39]

@@williebeamish5879 Yup exactly the same here! Literally everything you just said. Funny I have an aunt and uncle that moved from grand rapids to CO in the early 2000's. They're actually thinking about moving back to MI. But it's just like you said 🤷🏻‍♂️ Well, I was recently reading an article about the last census done. Comparing population of a neighboring sister state Wyoming to Colorado. WY has 580,000 people vs 5.8 million in CO. Yeah that's tenfold. Not a typo!

[@kayrom1]

That's because no one wants to live in Wyoming. I remember being newly-arrived to CO and meeting tons of people from WY. I arked one why so many lived in CO now. She said, "Have you ever BEEN to Wyoming in the winter?? Eventually I was there in the winter. I'd leave, too. It's hell on earth.

[@TakeTheRide]

That was some high winds. Traffic sucks there. I truly hate hail. It does so much damage, killing birds and wildlife too. Think of the outdoor pets in people's backyards. Plus it ruins the body on your vehicle.

[@MerlinOrtegas]

Thanks for the update dip shit. You must be a menza member, right?

[@ScantPear]

My 2000 Dodge Durango survived this one…

[@JohnDoe-xj6mf]

Dang nature, you scary

[@TexasLadyS]

Ii’m glad everyone seems to be okay! I completely understand how they feel. First, is shock. Then you check on your neighbors and enter survival mode. You get to work securing what you can and figure out where you’re spending the night if you can’t stay in your home. The next day, you go into clean up mode. Later, you’ll experience all the emotions you’ve stuffed down because you couldn’t deal with them at the time. In 2016, we were hit by a supercell storm that sent softball sized hail flying through all of our front windows and roof. It was terrifying. We had four cats so we had to get everything secured before they came out of hiding and got loose. We were lucky enough to have neighbors with trucks who got to Lowe’s in time to get plywood and screws so all our homes were secured before the sun went down but, boy was it scary. When the emotions hit, it was just a flood of tears.

[@cchawk6280]

Those were the scariest dark clouds I’ve ever seen. Hope the peeps are okay!! Thanks for the coverage.

[@lynnelovett8999]

Thank you for the coverage. Be safe.

[@Rawnervzz]

I made a comment another video about how Colorado tornadoes don't usually do much damage shows how much I know

[@katiehenry7]

I think your comment still holds true. This doesn't look like extreme damage.

[@princessturkey]

Most of Colorado's tornadoes are out on the Eastern Plains and not in the Front Range so it limits the overall damage, but there was a bad EF-3 tornado back in 2008 that cost $148 million in property damage in Weld county. In fact, Weld county averages the most tornadoes per year in the country! So far today's rating is EF-1, but that could change as more reports of damage come in.

[@Rawnervzz]

Oh thx folks I thought I was being too hasty

[@zachmcconnell1421]

I saw it from up on the hill, the clouds were amazing!

[@tracy2762]

nice .i was near centennial airport..i got pics of green sky and pictures of the funnel / tornado

[@logicplague]

According to another commenter it was just a breeze with hail...idiots.

[@greg2976]

So much devastation, day after day! ❤❤🙏🙏

[@PRINCESSDREAMYLYN]

my heart goes out to the families who have damage and to any who were injured or lost their lives. ♥much love to everyone♥

[@Fuzzycatfur]

Thankfully no injuries from what I've heard, just damage.

[@magalover2024]

I know lost lives and the one that do survive have damages to homes. My family had tornado damage on their home and they were forced to vacate a day after. That’s got to be lots of stress on families. Sad just sad.

[@lovisanickelson8163]

No lost lives I was so scared for my friends and family that live there though they said there neighborhood was fine it was only like an ef1 though

[@lovisanickelson8163]

[@vickimartintingle3391]

Unbelievable to see a tornado in that area 😮

Just Wild… I grew up in Centennial & I could never picture a tornado striking the area just across C470. Hopefully everyone is ok in Highlands Ranch!

[@Snipeswrg77]

I live off lucent and highlands ranch parkway. It was insane still can’t believe it. Thank you

[@17.11Acts]

Lived there for 50 years. Such a bad storm! That roof damage is crazy. My dad was a roofer so our phone rang off the hook after storms that weren even as bad as this.

[@Rocket_scientist_88]

We had our maple tree come down and our fence and house is just fine… just our maple tree got heavy damage…

[@jking8408]

It’s bright out & dark at the same time

[@logicplague]

Happens a lot with tornadoes, if you ever see green it's from ice so watch for hail.

[@MD-zm6sn]

We need more lights and we need less lights.

[@whathappenedtomyYThandle]

Someone needs to start a Tree replanting business. Most of those evergreens and a couple of the other larger trees just need to be deeper. Just go in dig a deeper hole about 10 ft down, add some clean soil. break up that knotted root ball so it can start to root and drop in. Would save so many trees and stop creating more debris for the landfill.

[@ROCCOCYCLES]

I could plant some rose bushes.

[@stefanieknickerbocker2855]

I lived in Colorado for 14 years and witnessed that before I moved to Cheyenne Wyoming. So it's been about a year since that actually happened and I'm grateful I didn't die or my friends didn't die. Also, my Grandpa wasn't Glenwood Springs at that time. So my mom was freaking out that he wouldn't answer her phone calls.

[@cindywadsley392]

In fact, I saw a mix/remix short of the two trees that fell on our house, but I can no longer find it. Can you send me the link please? Thanks.

[@sp4604]

Denver is the new California

[@hofahome]

Not many people know that Weld county has the most avg tornados per year. And yes I know this one was not there (I grew up in Centennial). Scary to see that supercell at the beginning.

[@exploringnature6319]

Hey can you drive through Camden Highlands Ridge apartments,on university? I will like to see if the apartments got damaged. I used to lived there.

[@dh190852]

Trees on houses, blocked streets. I'm familiar with what those people feel.😲😢

[@aliashurricane9349]

Even if I wasn’t a severe weather nerd I’d be smart enough not to drive into that insane storm!! I don’t understand people but I hope everyone is ok 😅🙏🏻

[@grasshopper5765]

How in hell was the birds🕊 still chirping or even alive after that, where do they go or hide?😮

[@TJWinter1221]

I often wondered the same thing. Where do all the birds go during the storm until one day I saw a bird holding on to a branch for dear life in a raging thunderstorm and 60 mph winds. It kept shaking all the water off like every 5 seconds. It was amazing to see! Now that's what I call a bird bath! 😆

[@ladockins6887]

Plant trees with TAP ROOTS less likely to be uprooted unlike oak trees whose root system grows just beneath the soil and easily uprooted. Tap roots grow STRAIGHT DOWN, Such as MAPLE TREES.

EF-0. No roof damage.

[@V1per41]

There were houses in my neighborhood with significant roof damage. It was graded an EF1 with 97mph winds.

[@le_th_]

Wow, they got so lucky.

[@Cokercole]

Not a large tornado. I'd say, looking at the damage that it was an EF0 to a EF1 tornado, puny by EF standards. 😎

[@TornadoWarned]

Large means size not strength, otherwise the verbiage would say strong 😂

[@jengrindeland4559]

Traumatizing nonetheless & it’s not a contest.

[@ROCCOCYCLES]

What's EF?

[@goku-san]

EF is the Enhanced Fujita scale.

[@V1per41]

It was given an EF1 rating with 97mph winds. I can't imagine having to go through one of the big ones

[@conniecrews8462]

Wow!!! Eerie!!!

[@michaelnaretto3409]

I'm not an expert but it looks like some of those trees can be replanted.

[@lauralee6432]

It doesn’t look like the houses were totally destroyed which is good

[@Andrew.Aravis]

Ya that’s really good. I saw a comment on another video saying it’s not a tornado since there were still houses. I don’t think they know what a tornado is lol it can rip a few trees out and be a tornado

where was the tornado? title says "large tornado" yet we never see one and very minimul damage

[@V1per41]

It was "rain wrapped" so there aren't any great videos of it. It was determined to be an EF1 about 1/4 mile wide, and a trail about 6.5 miles long.

Some of the same people that are shocked (shocked!) by the frequency and severity of extreme weather continue to deny man-made climate change despite the pleas of exasperated climate scientists worldwide for us to transition away from fossil fuels. They've been predicting this for decades and now that it's here it's amazing to watch people with severe cognitive dissonance literally choke on smoke while continuing to mindlessly parrot fossil fuel industry talking points.
