EAS Scenario - Purcell Tornado

On the morning of May 7th, 2025, people didn't anticipate what would later come in the wake of the afternoon.

The fact that your first scenario is on par with EF6 is actually insane. Finally a new member of the weather scenario community that knows how to stand out!

Hello big man, I also really liked this one!

There's no such thing as an EF6. But if EF6 eventually becomes a thing, then cities would be steamrolled by these tornadoes

[@kayeas716]

Wow dude... you have seriously set the bar for any future tornado scenarios. From one creator to another, this was incredible. The use of soundings, recreated mesoscale discussions, and damage assessment pictures from Piedmont, Moore, Mayfield, etc. just blew me away, I even laughed a bit at the mention of the HRRR. It's incredibly relieving to see a GOOD tornado scenario made by someone who actually knows their shit, I was beyond tired of the ridiculous EF-8 scenarios. Not to mention the AMAZING reflectivity and velocity simulations, and the intricate audio depicting an entire story. Seriously blown away here (no pun intended) and I'm super excited for what else you may bring in the future.

I love how you made us live through the tornado passing through with the ambience as this monster rolled through Purcell. This most have been what it felt like for the people of Rolling Fork and Silver City last night. An amazing first EAS scenario and I hope to see more of this from you!

[@iceresistance]

@@arizona7979 Would it be okay to feature me as a storm spotter? I live in Pott. County in Central Oklahoma. I recently had a nightmare where there was an EF-5 that had a wind speed over 300 mph and a forward motion of 60-70 mph that struck Tecumseh, OK. This tornado may have touched down much further to the SW. It was HUGE! When I realized that this tornado was heading towards town, I got into my car and drove HARD towards OK-9 and HARD towards Tecumseh on OK-9. I got there just as the tornado started to strike town. I had to keep some distance from this monster because of it’s wind speed, forward motion, and the size of that thing. I was watching that tornado in pure horror as it literally ripped through town. Seen a lot of cars go flying like toys, homes also ripped from the ground and power lines were literally snapped and carried off with the power poles. The roar of that tornado was extremely intense even inside the car. When it became safer as the tornado moved away. I moved slowly and carefully. It looked like a war zone. Everything was gone. Even parts of roads were stripped off. I even noticed that the roof of a below ground concrete storm shelter that was reinforced with Steel Rebar is gone. That sight scarrred me forever in that dream. (Also, maybe do Correlation Coefficient? A CC drop means there is a tornado on the ground)

You can tell the voices are computer-generated, but they're a hell of a lot better than the current NOAA broadcast voice.

[@Joshtow167]

I live just east of Tulsa. Lived here since I was a couple months old. The weather here is bipolar. Seen it snow in May while at a track meet. Only to unleash hell right after. "We're going green." Love the weather just gotta pay attention.

[@iceresistance]

[@Goofybig_goober]

Bro I literally get so pissed at the weather here

[@iceresistance]

13:00 OH NO! THAT IS HEADING TOWARDS ME! I MUST GET OUT! THERE IS NO WAY I CAN GET BELOW GROUND AND SURVIVE! Did my location get struck? Or did it barely miss me? I live north of Macomb.

[@vibrantgleam]

you're one of the few people who can make an eas scenerio feel eeirly realistic.

[@BrylcreemBill]

An EF6 tornado is not possible using the enhanced Fujita scale because the scale bases the strength of a tornado on the damage that it causes. Since the damage caused by an EF5 tornado is cataclysmic, with houses completely swept off their foundations, you can't get worse than that. This is why I have been advocating for tornado intensities based upon direct wind measurements. I have no doubt that this will be the case at some point in the future. At that time, a W6 (or whatever the scale is called) tornado will be possible because we are just beginning to learn how fast the winds in a cataclysmic tornado blow.

[@heatherstub]

Me too. I can't stand the current EF scale, and it's because of those wind speeds being reduced. I still believe that the current record for the windspeed is 318 MPH no matter what Dr. Josh Werterman says. (I hope I spelled his name correctly.)

[@EperogiLimousine]

Well there’s a problem, do we really need a “w6”? These ratings are only to asses damage and prevent deaths so it dosent really matter what windsoeed there is as that’s just pointless. What are you going to do with a w6 tornado? It dosent rwally help

[@TheFoxxscurse]

Or a Ef 6 being bunkers ripped out of the ground and soil being greatly disturbed

[@AMBER_ROBLOX791]

Ty bro for putting the city purcell Oklahoma out there we dont get any intention at all

[@Tirani2]

This is very well done, excellent scenario. My only complaint is the layering of some audio over voices, particularly white noise sounds like rain, can make them very hard to hear. Otherwise, very well done, with an eye towards accuracy of how tornado situations are actually handled. (I wish more creators would normalize EAS sounds with the volume of audio in the video, but that's a personal pet peeve. I end up having to turn my volume up to hear what's going on, to quickly dropping it when the tones dropped. It can get painful with headphones on.)

[@arizona7979]

thanks, i agree with the audio part. it was weird because the audio sounded completely normal in premiere pro and when i uploaded it the audio turned out to be wayyy too quiet and the EAS sounds ended up being too loud

[@UpperlevelJeffstream]

First warning in KS was in Pratt county. In that case I wouldn’t have to go chasing, I could just walk outside 😂

[@itzrenzo8960]

gulp. this is amazing. so realistic it scares me.

[@SunnyKittenss]

[@somedudewhodraws9377]

Tornado Emergencies are rare and thank god for that too. They only get issued if an F5 is on the ground followed by multiple others like F4's and F3's

[@big_yam]

How do u make ur hypothetical SPC risks, I would like to make my own risk maps for hypothetical severe weather situations.

[@ItalianEmpire126]

With the final toll being 72, it reminds me of the phil Campbell hackleburg tornado that tracked into two states and the final toll was 72, This was itself an EF5 that was violent and deadly. One of the many EF5s that impacted during the Super Outbreak of 2011. RIP to all that died that day on April 27th, 2011

[@R_Valentin]

My only complaint was that a couple counties were mentioned twice, and that T-Watches tend not to be issued on TV, other than that, this is a great scenario! I've seen it compared to EF6 by StudioQ, and a better comparison, I have yet to find.

[@scarpfish]

Normally I find these EAS scenario videos a bit amateurish, but this was really well put together. 👍 I've seen the ominous 'purple polygon' only a few times, but never as a live weather product. Can you explain it to me? Does it simply mean the tornado is spotter confirmed or somthing more serious?

[@Coop-sg6qc]

The Purple Polygon I think you are talking about is called an Tornado Emergency, its a very enhanced version of a tornado warning meaning that there a violent tornado in progress with history of destruction or a tornado with intense to violent radar signatures are heading toward a majorly populated area.

[@FindingClock4]

I'm not sure, but I am pretty sure it stands for TOR-E or Tornado Emergency, since I also saw it used for the Western Kentucky Tornado of 2021.

[@jamestaylor4480]

@@Coop-sg6qc The Purple Polygon means Tornado Emergency. A Tornado Emergency means that there's a confirmed large and destructive tornado. Radar has picked up a debris ball on reflectivity , very strong rotation in the Storm Relative Velocity , and a Tornado Debris Signature on the Correlation Coefficient.

[@iceresistance]

@@FindingClock4 Yes, dark red means “PDS Tornado Warning”

[@harryparsons2750]

This is fake? WTH

[@Coop-sg6qc]

May I ask where you got the sounding and such? I am actually going to do something like this (on a more experimental scale as I have literally not even touched the EAS scenario category once) I know it's a surface sounding but it would be nice on how you found such sounding. Also for creating SPC mesoscale how would be done as well (like the colored boxes and the arrows and such used)

You can find stock videos or simply get royalty free eas alarms (which are everywhere)

Could hearted silence, then screaming lots of screaming! (this s a survivos acount) when I left the walk in it was as if I stepped into Hell. I hurd a man screaming his wifes name she was in a car, I came up and told him I can help her until I noticed her head had been ripped completely off and was in the back seat.

[@michaellovely6601]

@@patricklaurojr7427 Pertaining to Hattiesburg, Mississippi; they came dangerously close to an EF5 tornado. On February 10th, 2013 Hattiesburg was hit by an EF4 tornado. Despite the tornado being rated as an EF4 by the National Weather Service office in Jackson, Mississippi the Hattiesburg tornado killed no one and only eighty-two people were injured. This tornado badly damaged numerous businesses on Hardy Street and Oak Grove Road in downtown Hattiesburg as well as damaging or destroying many homes and vehicles and damaging residence halls on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi. Fortunately, there weren't many students or faculty members of USM on campus as they had gone to New Orleans, Louisiana for Mardi Gras weekend because Hattiesburg isn't too far from New Orleans. This tornado was a wedge tornado like the ones that hit Tuscaloosa, Alabama and Joplin, Missouri just two years earlier.
