Although storm chasers are believed to do it just for the thrill, in reality they give news stations/weather services a heads up to issue warnings to the public.

[@janfitzgerald3615]

That is a misconception, because many of them also have scientific instruments to gather important data to help understand the storms. Furthermore they stop and do search and rescue if they come across a damaged home or building.

[@Minotaur92]

@@janfitzgerald3615 I am a storm chaser and I can verify the majority do it for the "love" of severe weather, but we will always take the time to report to the NWS as well as search and rescue in worst case scenarios.

[@janfitzgerald3615]

@@Minotaur92 thank you for what you do! While you may be doing it for the love of severe weather, you are definitely providing important information to the public on location, damage that’s occurring and of course search and rescue if needed.

[@susanricketts8916]

Many of them also tend to rush in after and offer help to people.

[@keithcaserta]

I live north of the major tornado band, but they still happen here. What I've always found interesting is that, when the conditions are just right and a tornado almost always forms within 15 +/- 5 miles (24 +/- 8 km), the sky turns the strangest shade of green. It is eerie, weird, and scary, since you know what will follow.

[@Jimmyrichard270]

Most populated areas will have some kind of warning system like air raid sirens or something. You can also purchase a weather radio that will wake you up in the event of severe weather

[@tr-lj2vx]

I'm currently North of Chicago, Tornado warnings all last night and somewhere around Texas 19 people died in multiple tornadoes.

[@lindadianesmith6013]

Even sophisticated tech has trouble seeing exactly what’s going on. Many storm chasers do it to be the “eyes on the ground” and this information saves countless lives. Sometimes they are first on the scene after a strike and pull people from the rubble. They also can gather data that can be used in the future

[@ChuckHickl]

they can also cause massive traffic jams trapping people in evac zones and also keeping first responders from getting where they need to. absolute chaos at this point with every amateur weather person out there willing to take absurd risks to get the most sensational footage.

[@pointer1947]

I'm in oklahoma city and lived through this strong f-5 tornado ..winds around 315 mph..there were over 70 tornados that night ..A night I will never forget ...I was born in Oklahoma and will die here.. but I must say that was a scary night...love you guys videos and love both ya'll

[@marcanthony8873]

Tornadoes at night are literally invisible. It’s terrifying. You need to hope there’s lightning to momentarily illuminate the twister.

[@phillipliestman8739]

We have tornado sirens you also can get a weather radio receiver that will warn you with battery backup.

[@americansmark]

They rotate up to 320mph, but move across the ground at an average of 30mph. This past weekend, however, had several tornadoes moving at 85mph.

[@janfitzgerald3615]

Unfortunately there were also some EF3s and possible EF4 as well.

[@pddaawwgg]

They're adapting 30 to 85... oh no

[@forlornshadowdragon]

@@pddaawwgg You want them to be moving quickly over the ground. The most destructive are the ones that are nearly at a standstill groundspeed wise. That's what happened with the Moore tornado. It was an EF5 that stalled, only moving horizontally at a few miles per hour with windspeeds close to or over 300 mph. Literally sandblasted homes to dust rather than just blowing them over or picking them up. If it's moving over the ground quickly it doesn't have as much time to "hit" things with debris, it whisks it away versus throwing it against other things over and over and over; its still destructive cause of the suction, but you don't want it hanging around. Its why hurricanes, while sometimes having lower wind speeds, are so much more destructive; they're wider but they also move a lot slower over the ground. Just to clarify....they all suck (no pun intended), regardless of if they're slow or fast. Tornados and hurricanes are scary and dangerous period.

[@license2kilttheplaidlad640]

While insurance is technically available its often so expensive it out weighs the negative of loss . Cell phones send out a warning when needed

[@hardtackbeans9790]

Systems powerful enough to create a tornado usually stretches into multiple states. This is 'normal' not the exception. Saturday night about 40 miles north of me (Dallas) There were a few tornados with one very strong & deadly. The same line of thunder storms stretched into Oklahoma & Kansas with even more strong tornados. The other end hooked around into Missouri & Iowa (I think). With even more tornados. During the heat of summer you sometimes get one thunderstorm strong enough to have a tornado. Not this time of year though.

[@Big_Tex]

I was visiting Gainesville and got alarmed by the look of the weather Saturday afternoon, so I high-tailed it back to DFW. Glad I did.

[@Big_Tex]

A tornado’s speed across the ground is about like typical car-driving. Maybe as slow as 20-30 mph, sometimes as fast as 80-90, sometimes it comes to a stop as if at a red light.

[@robertdwilliamsjr4781]

I live in tornado alley in alabama . Tornados can move up to 60 miles per hour. An EF 5 is the worse , it can be better known as the finger of God. Yes a rain wrapped tornado is not seen at first as a tornado, it is even very difficult for weather radar to pick up a rain wrapped tornado. . In 2011 there was a recorded 12 tornadoes on the ground at the same time just in my state . We have Tornado sirens in towns and you will here them. Also should have a weather radio.

[@BigMoore1232]

What a coincidence. I spent like 3 hours in a basement last night hiding from tornadoes. We had one tornado warning and then we had one like 1 hour later. We were on vacation in Kentucky at my cousins big farm. There was a tornado a couple miles away....it's getting really old this year.

[@HappyValleyDreamin]

Oh wow! I heard last night was pretty bad for a lot of folks. Glad you're okay!

[@BigMoore1232]

@HappyValleyDreamin I'm from Southern indiana and they had tornadoes there too so I would have been in my basement there too lol can't get away from them this year.

[@deadmanlnc2215]

Reed Timmer actually has a series of vehicles built to drive into tornadoes, and yes, most cities and towns have tornado sirens or air raid sirens to warn residents

[@pumpkinproblem]

I live in tornado alley and have had many tornado warnings happen for my area, but only 1 in 22 years ever actually hit my location and our tiny town was wiped out. Luckily I live in a more northern part of the US called South Dakota, and every house here has a basement to protect the pipes from freezing in the winter so nobody died. We have many ways of getting warnings, this includes alerts on our phones that pop up in front of what ever you are doing and make a loud warning noise, weather radios that automatically turn on and warn you of what ever weather warning has just been issued for your location, the TV if you are using cable, pretty much any weather channel, and of course your towns tornado sirens (not recommended as your only warning)

[@Big_Tex]

There’s lots of ways to get alerts and alarms - radio, cell phones, TV, public sirens. But also you pretty much know if it’s possible tornado weather, if you’re paying any attention to conditions outside. I was visiting a town in North Texas Saturday, and the weather just started looking tornado-y. I got the heck out of there and returned to Dallas. Sure enough a tornado struck that area, town of Valley View, that night!

[@Hiraghm]

yeah, I was coming out of my apt the other evening. the sky was pumpkin orange and very still... and my experience and instincts told me that it was tornado weather. Sure enough, later that evening we had tornado warnings all over the area.

[@jefflowen3608]

I was actually in Joplin when this tornado hit. it actually hit out house and destroyed it completely. luckily we had a basement which alot of others didnt have. We even had both our neighbors bring their family down into our basement. all of our houses were destroyed. we had 5 fatalities on our block im so greatful my neighbors rushed to us for safety

[@michaelstallings5824]

meteorologists will warn people, "You want to be below ground, or you will not survive" for some EF5s. The Moore Bridgecreek tornado left entire neighborhoods flat. Literally, you'd see, block after block, nothing but the cement slabs that were the foundations of houses that were no more.

[@BryanW-bp3le]

Was up at 3 am due to tornado warnings. Winds blowing up to 60mph in all directions with nonstop lightning and thunder. Looked like a night club how much it was striking.

[@davidwhitehead5949]

I see many tornadoes while living in Moore, Oklahoma. We have tornado sirens and the National Weather Service is in Norman, Oklahoma

[@trickhayproductions]

Tornado warnings are done by tv and radio announcements and by air raid sirens.

[@Roboto2073]

And by phones in a lot of places, but you gave these two a great indication of how people are warned.

[@bradkirchhoff5703]

Storm chasers call them in. Warnings mean tornado has been spotted. They will specifically state “dopplar detected” if not.

[@manxkin]

Tornado warnings last night here in northern Illinois. We had a “small” ef 1 hit our town this past February. Tore the roof off an apartment building. Fortunately only minor injuries. It’s been a really horrific tornado season.

Did you know, that you can ride along with storm chasers? I think its kind of expensive though and you have to sign some forms so that if anything happens to you, they won't be held responsible. I live in Southeast Colorado and we do have a tornado siren that will go off during a thunderstorm that turns into tornado warning when the clouds start spinning, but I've never seen a tornado.

[@NemesisoftheGrandPoohbahputin]

It is called tornado tourism. They have to stay far away (probably due to insurance) but many tours do spot tornados & sometimes many. I hear it is miserable riding around in a van with a bunch of strangers for hours on end. But it is a good way (if not expensive) to see some of these storms.

In Oklahoma most of us use storm shelters. Most are underground.

[@SarahBroad-kw7fj]

Most town and cities have tornado sirens. Normally our town tests the tornado sirens once a month to make sure that they are working properly. If you have watched silent hill the movie or played the video that’s the siren that you hear. It’s loud and scary but it does get your attention which is what it’s supposed to do. On the lost in the pond channel by Lawrence Brown. He has an episode where the sirens are actually going and he explains about the storms and stuff.

[@timothybush9633]

Hi Yass & Fats, I've only seen a tornado high up in the sky in Wisconsin but we've never been in one because we've never lived in the path of one so if you two visit or move here, I wish you would 😁, just don't move close to Tornado Alley. I live now in Arizona where we don't get Tornados but we do get Dust Devils( which get winds but not like Tornados) or we get Haboobs( which are nothing like a Tornado) you may get a tree down or get a mess on your yard or in the windows of your place or car

[@rhshear]

Tornado warnings are very loud and long sirens. If you live in areas that get tornados you need to always be aware of the weather , have your tv or radio on AND have a basement yo can in when one comes your way

[@Punpas]

15:00 we can actually go inside tornadoes, and this is what some storm chasers do, by going inside them using special vehicles, such as using the TIV's (Tornado Intercept Vehicle), Dominators and some other cars.

[@leemer12]

thst ef5 that went for miles must been a fast moving storm with strong cold dry air mixing with the moist air , they move at the speed of the storm is moving

[@carissadallke1345]

I know people from the east coast that moved here & they perfer hurricanes over tornados. Cause at least with hurricanes you have warning for a ling time to either prepare or leave but tornados just come & there can be little to no warning (tho usually there is some warnings!)

[@beesnestna9544]

Storm Chasers are so much more then just thrill seekers. Many of them are trained "first responders" capable of administering first-aid or search-and-rescue support for local authorities. They notify local authorities, the National Weather Service and local news weather stations about the location, speed and direction of the tornado's path contributing to the early warning systems. Many are students of Meteorology or provide assistance to scientific groups who research tornadoes. Sometimes the photos/videos they take are provided to Universities for Severe Storms Research. Of course, they have to make a living too, so they'll license their videos for use in documentaries and news reports to help pay for all the expensive electronic equipment they need (and pay for themselves) to safely track and follows these storms.😉

You said this was the history of the world, no, just since records have been kept. Our town has sirens you can hear for miles. They test ours every Wednesday at noon. Basements aren't common everywhere, in my area, they are rare. Tornadoes don't dig into the ground, although they commonly rip things out of the ground. I have been in several tornadoes and it's not fun. Closest one was maybe 60 feet away when it touched down right at the end of my driveway. I had just opened the door at 2:30 am and it came down and went right down my street.

[@yikes1465]

my least favorite thing about tornadoes is the sound, they growl and howl like wild animals.

[@NerdyNanaSimulations]

May I recommend Swegle Studios The History and Evolution of Storm Chasing. A lot of chasers do it for the science, and it is thanks to them that we have the warning times we now have. There is almost always at least one chaser who is in direct communication with the television station reporting the tornado. Three of the four who died in the last one were part of Twistex, Tim Samaras is responsible for the creation of a lot of the in the field tornado technology they now use, and one of the safest chasers in history. That tornado was a monster and did not follow clear paths, they thought they were safe but were not aware how far reaching those winds actually were. For your own private viewing I suggest watching Storm Chasers which is a Television show on the Discovery channel and follows the work of storm chasers.

Tornadoes can be stationary or move up to 50 mph… they can also move backwards or do loops. Go watch about the el Reno tornado and it will answer a lot of your questions. - life time okie that lives in moore.

They talk about a tornado doing up to 3 Billion or more dollars worth of damage. Most hurricanes cost many Billions of dollars consider Hurricane Katrina US $125 Billion dollars and Super Storm Sandy. US 70 Billions dollars.

The slower a tornado moves the deadlier it is. You want them to move fast. The longer it sits on an area the more catastrophic the damage is. Imagine a monster like that just sitting on 1 area for 30 seconds. Thered be NOTHING left. Most of them travel around 30-50 mph.

[@SlabSweptClean]

Look at the Jarrel Texas tornado

[@JonathanWade-i4n]

Not entirely true. The wind speed is what gives a tornado it's ability to do catastrophic damage, not necessarily the ground speed. Ground speed and durability is what causes the most lives. The faster a storm cell moves the less time there is for warnings. The faster the winds move inside the tornado (not how fast it moves on the ground) , the more damage it does. Wind Speed: EF-0 65-85 mph / EF-1 86-110 mph / EF-2 111-135 mph / EF-3 136-165 mph / EF-4 166-200 mph / EF-5 200+ mph. Damage: EF-0 little to no damage to structures / EF-1 through EF-2 little to moderate damage to trees and structures / EF-3 moderate to severe damage to trees and structures / EF-4 major to complete damage of structures / EF-5 complete damage and removal of structures (Usually no debris found around the structure). You're right about storms typically move at around 25-50 mph.

[@tinahairston6383]

To your comment about insurance, home insurance can be well out of someone's range to have when they live in certain areas. Flood insurance is extra and not a standard with home insurance. A lot of people after Hurricane Katrina who had home insurance realized that flood coverage was not on their policy. The flooding that happened was so destructive that many people were not able to recover from the damage the water caused. As someone else said, tornadoes and even hurricanes don't necessarily travel quickly. Hurricanes generally lose speed when they once they hit and travel over land. The problem is the duration and with tornadoes, the debris that goes flying around but also the fact that they can change direction quickly. Basements are no guarantee of safety just a better chance of safety. The debris can and has buried people and if not found quickly it can end in tragedy.

[@Hiraghm]

Homeowner's insurance in some places is mandatory before you can buy a home. However, far rarer, is _renters_ insurance. So the home owner (or apt complex) you're renting from will be covered by insurance, but you and your belongings won't be.

I storm chased from 2020-2021. It was definitely an adrenaline rush, but for a weather nerd like myself it was more about experiencing the weather and marveling at the incredible structures that form with super cells and tornadic weather here in Eastern Oklahoma. I do stay out of the way of the professional chasers though, cause many act as important guides for public safety organizations, providing real time information to warn the public, as well as scientists who actively deploy probes and gather data to figure out more about tornadoes. Such people that gather data and write papers for example are Dr. Reed Timmer who still chases today, and the Twistex team of Tim Samaras, Paul Samaras, and Carl Young, who were 3 of the 4 people who unfortunately lost their lives during the El Reno tornado back in 2013.

Public broadcast this day in age is kind of phased out with streaming apps instead of cable tv providers though. Every city here has a siren however, at least to my knowledge. I've seen plenty of them growing up in Duluth mn due to the lake effect of lake superior, they are both a spectacle to see and devastating!

[@Raijin-RyuX24]

Tornados can travel across an area just as fast as cars. As for warning systems. Alarms across cities and towns. Terrifying alarms. Like the ones you hear in war films and insurance is a scam. You’ll pay for basic coverage but then have to pay extra for flood coverage. Then pay even more extra for wind/tornado coverage. Then pay even more extra again for earthquake coverage. Homeowners are only required to have basic insurance. So that’s what most have.

I was born in Kansas, raised in Oklahoma. In Kansas, our basement was the best and most decorated and used room in our house. In Oklahoma, I remember sitting on our front porch watching a tornado go between us and Oklahoma City. I was about 9 at the time. To this day, I can handle just about any weather but I get scared $&@?less with wind.

Tornadoes rarely sneak up on us today. One thing to watch out for is when the sky gets a greenish hue to it. The tornado/tornadoes that devastated Xenia Ohio on April 1974, passed by my only about 15 miles away from my town. Nearly every town has radar sirens that are tested monthly. Last month I heard one go off that wasn't a test. A tornado had touched down about 20 miles away in a storm headed our way.

To alarm the community, we have storm sirens... they sound like air raid sirens... at least the ones I have heard. This was around Ft Worth, TX where I had heard it. I live in Houston and we don't have them here. I have no idea about other parts/regions of the US.

Most cities have AIR RAID SIRENS that are used to warn you of a Tornado. Because a Tornado is a raid from the air. So a loud WAaaaaaaaaaaahhhh goes off.
