[@BarbaraRademacher]

This video gave me chills. I just finished surviving the tornado in Rogers, Arkansas that tore down gorgeous, old trees resulting in roads being blocked all through town. NWS said there were numerous tornadoes which struck in the early morning hours of 5/26/24: 1 in Rogers, 1 in Decatur, 2 by the lake, and multiple other tornadoes around Benton County. Power outages were widespread as we sweltered in the heat with no air conditioning. Sitting there in my inside room in total darkness, knowing I could be dead at any instant was traumatising. One of my cats is still crying out in his sleep.

Everytime I watch this it gives me chills, the ominous looking tornado forming right in front of my camera and the other tornado destroying things behind the camera at the same time. Terrifying! Thanks for watching!

This is legit why I don't wanna see a tornado in person where I live, because 1, they're mostly rain-wrapped, 2, tornadoes at night are a hell no, because you can't see them, and 3, I live where there are a lot of trees surrounding my neighborhood, so the trees block me from seeing a potential tornado.

[@stacyland7772]

These are the scariest storms because you can't see anything forming that well when it is this dark outside. We had a storm the other day...one second it was light out the next second it was so dark outside and it was morning at about 10 a.m. It came out of no where. I lived in Oklahoma as a child and moved back to Texas when I was a teenager and lived in Iowa for several years and I had never seen this weather so crazy as now.

[@R2D2C_3po]

There might have been no tornado warning initially. However, I believe that there was a tornado watch already in effect. When you have a tornado watch in effect, then you should treat any storm approaching you as having the potential of actively dropping tornadoes! That's especially true for a storm approaching you with this much lightning during a tornado watch. The radar signature of this storm made it crystal clear that this was a dangerous long-track supercell storm. Even if you don't have an active tornado warning, then it's best to take shelter from a storm like this one, or at least stay within close distance to a shelter. You're always better off being safe rather than sorry when it comes to a tornadic storm like this one! This particular storm was an extremely dangerous long-track tornadic supercell that kept dropping tornado after tornado for more than 400 miles! This storm started dropping tornadoes around the north side of Tulsa and across Eastern Oklahoma. Then moved all the way across Northern Arkansas to the Missouri Bootheel, dropping numerous tornadoes along the way. From the Bootheel it moved crossed the Mississippi River to the area along the Tennessee-Kentucky line, and ended up still dropping multiple tornadoes deep inside Western Kentucky. This storm finally dissipated over the Appalachian Mountains near the Kentucky-Virginia line. Fortunately long-track tornadic supercell storms like this one are a rare beast. However, a storm like this one is arguably the most dangerous type of thunderstorm there is. Long-track tornadic supercells like this one have been responsible for some of the worst tornado outbreaks in history across hundreds of miles!

[@1018weather]

Oh yeah I already know but a lot of people don't know this. I think with how volatile this storm was they should have just put the whole storm in a tornado warning and the path in front of it.

@@1018weather oh my goodness we here in Shreveport had a massive E-F1 Tornado and practically demolished my neighborhood tress fell on homes coming in we don’t have sirens for warnings like most do. Power lines fell as well

@@Mattbug83 That's super sketchy!

[@EdwardM-t8p]

That was one wicked lightning ⚡⚡⛈️ storm! And I couldn't or could barely make out the tornado 🌪️ even when you pointed it out to us. Tornadoes at night or in afforested areas are scary because you can't see them. Doubly so it it's both and double again if they're surrounded by rain. That's why I don't ever want to see a tornado 🌪️ in person where I live.

[@1018weather]

At the 13min mark the funnel begins to form, comes down and then goes towards the right of the video. Definitely terrifying, especially since there was another one on the ground behind the camera destroying stuff. Thank you for watching!

[@jamesbertie3764]

I'll never get that time back. Yes, I'm sure it was a rough storm, but the entire video was lightning and sirens. That's all you showed to us.

[@1018weather]

Turn up your brightness and watch from 12:30 on.

[@marnavanloo7302]

I like watching lightning from a safe place, this one would have me praying in fear.

[@1018weather]

Oh yeah I agree, I was inside and my camera was outside on a tripod.

[@JustinBalingit-jd2ct]

The National Weather Service Has issued a Tornado Watch 1:41

[@tallpaul7130]

Imagine those sirens in the 60s and 70s? Its either a tornado or nuclear war just started man! 🫣😵‍💫🤯...either way, you're in a bunker, with ya head between ya knees, screaming oh 💩!😳🫣😵‍💫🤐🫤

[@1018weather]

Yeah in my opinion the sounds of these sirens is absolutely horrifying. Especially in the middle of the night!

[@marylynnkingry8353]

That’s some insane lighting!! Sometimes the tornados are rain wrapped and you can’t see them!

[@1018weather]

Yes you are right, but the funnel above the house across the street at the 13min mark is almost lit up like it has a spotlight on it lol. The other tornado is behind the camera doing damage, pics of the damage are at the end of the video.

[@stephanieortiz532]

Omg was this the tornados in paragould arkansas???? Or rogers????

[@speppers69]

Watching your videos really makes me miss Texas.

[@beckylynn209]

So about how hot was it outside during this video?? What state was this in?? Awesome show! Beautiful lightning and crazy tornado's!! That you for sharing.. 🤗

[@1018weather]

It was 85 degrees when this storm hit, and it was super humid so there was a lot of storm fuel in the air! This was in Arkansas. The lightning was some of the most crazy lightning I've ever seen! I'm glad you like my video! Thanks for watching!

[@rhondaanderson2515]

Great video. I really enjoyed that. Huge storm lover here.

I seen three tornadoes at same time merge...The one that hit Rainsville and done so much damage.... Geraldine Alabama....6 miles before Rainsville..

[@katiehenry7]

You can hear the tornado that is behind this neighborhood and on the ground around 12:00(sounds like a waterfall) and you can see a different funnel, in front of the house, that isnt on the ground aroud 13:30

[@1018weather]

You're right! You can also hear the tornado behind the camera hitting things! Very sketchy!

[@katiehenry7]

@1018weather it was definitely very weird weather. In fact, the entire storm season this year has been odd.

[@1018weather]

@@katiehenry7 From what I understand some records were broken this year with the severe weather, something about May was the most active May we have ever had.

The lightning is likely why anyone noticed at all. Night tornados in the black are scary.

no disrespect to anyone involved with this storm! i didnt see anything that the title of this video led me to believe! another one of those videos that wasted 30 min of my time!! wtf!! what tornado! ??

[@shannongreenwell1278]

That’s usually what happens when twisters 🌪️ hit in my area, they occur at night when we’re in bed asleep and the only thing that wakes me up is my phone beeping 🚨 me that something is wrong.

[@1018weather]

It's terrifying when they sneak up on you!

[@mattlloyd9054]

Regardless of the tornado, I used to get what I'd call electrical storms like this one multiple times every summer, but now I'm lucky to hear thunder at all each summer. Something has made t-storms literally avoid my area for decades. It's hilarious how the fear mongering media screams weather's getting worse when the weather here is getting milder. Even the summer temps excluding this one have been very below average for years. It is making up for it this summer, tho hotter than hell, but I think I've heard maybe 5 claps of thunder this year. That said we even had a severe storm warning today didnt hear any thunder wtf?

[@1018weather]

The whole weather pattern is changing, places that didn't get many tornadoes are getting lots of them now, same for storms, places that use to get a lot of storms aren't anymore, it's changing fast too. These last few years have provided a ton of severe weather for Northeast Arkansas.

[@mattlloyd9054]

@1018weather it's always changed and always will with or without our influence. I find wild how everyone's weather is getting crazy and mines getting lazy. For context I live in far southwest Virginia in claypool hill.

To me, there's nothing more frightening than tornado sirens going off in the middle of the night. I don't want to see one in the daylight, much less at night! 😳😨
