Full evolution of beautiful tornado near Wray, CO on May 7, 2016

Monster high-based supercell approaches Wray, CO from the south at around 5:30 pm MDT on May 7, 2016 and produces an insane tornado just north of town. This tornado was rated an EF2 but likely was much stronger over the open, rural grassland north of Wray. This is a textbook hook-slice intercept.

[@aidandrury9542]

It's always cool seeing a flashback to a finished tornado season but don't forget that this season is just starting up and that your next view of a very large tornado could be just a few days away

[@ReedTimmerWx]

I am chasing northern Alabama into central TN tomorrow!

[@aidandrury9542]

Ok hopefully if the internet holds out I should be able to watch it although I don't know what live storm chasing service to use because I haven't found a relyable one since your one tvn weather discontinued

[@festcaughorn8145]

Reed Timmer hay reed your gonna be in my home state tomorrow bro i watched you on storm chasers on discovery hell yea chase safe and a big warm Tennessee welcome to u oh n one more thing do you think Tennessee is gonna see a tornado or two tomorrow? #DOMANATORDOMINATING

[@lavat5186]

My county is having a tornado warning 😰

[@aidandrury9542]

Stay safe and don't wait until you see the tornado because in any case it could be rain rapped but it's very likely with these storms plus it's extra dangerous because it's night as well

[@mrbryce8623]

how many times have I seen this tornado? But I love seeing it

[@NaturallyTeeCee]

Me too.

[@johnbour2762]

I have watched it numerous times as well

[@nd78947]

[@lookingforthetruth8478]

I've always loved crazy weather and storms but after seeing this video im just in awe, ive seen ALL of your videos and talks and im determined to do this 1 day soon, this tornado was just beautiful. I can't imagine the power you feel when your close. Reed your amazing at what you do, and your videos are some of the best, you take chances alot of others won't and your videos show it, your very inspiring, thanks 4 what u do! Much love from Tennessee

[@sems1193]

You ought to have balls of steel to follow a tornado like that.

[@boxcakekenny]

This video for me captures the absolute beauty and power of Mother Nature. Such a violent, deadly tornado but so beautiful at the same time.

[@amymbeauty8765]

Holy cow that was beautiful! Looking up at it is completely awe inspiring. Great capture. That had to be an exciting one!

[@judithyoungquist8409]

I don’t understand... how could someone give this a thumbs down??

[@maulcs]

11 people out of 600... less than 2 percent. Who cares?

[@nathanielepps]

Only reason i can think is the audio is a bit hard on the ears, this is still my favorite tornado of all time though I would never give it a thumbs down

[@AsriaDurden5558]

What an amazingly beautiful display of nature! Terrifyingly beautiful...

[@robertkramer41]

Sure miss the old TVN streaming platform, one stop shopping.

[@chrisdawson265]

Beautiful Cloud Structure 👍 I would love your job Reed 😁

[@aidanb9641]

Let's hope for another successful season of tornados this year.

[@ajdavis98775]

I really missed Storm Chasers. This guy still gets excited as if every tornado is his first which in my opinion shows his passion. Another thing I liked about Reed Timmer is that he was one cocky and arrogant as hell but backed it up cause he just knows his shit. Always consistently had the best tornado footage by far. Hated Joel for always having doubt and acting like a jealous girl always in his feelings on chases

[@doggoblingz]

A Davis987 i miss storm chasers to!

[@michaelwillever3522]

A Davis987 yeah well Joel passed away not too long ago so maybe take it easy?

[@doggoblingz]

Michael Willever i didnt know that! 😱😱

[@ajdavis98775]

Michael Willever him passing away mean I can't state how I saw him portrayed in the show?

[@michaelwillever3522]

A Davis987 how did I know you were going to defend your speaking ill of the dead. Stay classy, bro.

[@rustbucket11]

Never seen a better video captured of a tornado. He got so close I can't believe it. Insane clarity. I grew up in OK and all of them are rain wrapped there so it's impossible to get a video like this.

[@VASILIY.N.]

Very smooth and beautiful

[@ShebrewQueen]

Some of my favorite footage.

[@valdir253]

Congratulations, this beautiful one.

[@XmasLightsGuy]

I clicked this figuring the thumbnail image was clickbait-spam ... but no its real! Talk about getting a beautiful tornado view up close & making good use of the zoom! (also loved the shots looking upward) Awesome vid.

[@fud85]

Holy shit. Incredible filming and chasing. Unreal

[@joez9261]

Best kind of Tornado, Majestic, powerful and best of all, Out of town. Will be the Wife be with you as you start the Season?

[@masseffects4118]

Amazing, wish I could be out stormchasing...never stop you get fantastic footage

It was so majestic!

[@SRo-eq6gn]

Whoa that's intense. It's like a Sky Kitchen-Aid Mixer. Love it!!!!

[@BlueDot_]

Reed will go down as one the best, takes massive risks to get shots that nobody else will, I salute that man because you have to be a crazy S.O.B to get that close lol

[@heartlandlight6862]

Jumps up and down; makes loud noises. WOW!

Now that’s a beauty right there 🙌🏽🎉

[@lmk001]

Incredible.

[@anarchistatheist1917]

Great video. This is the closest I have ever seen of someone getting to a tornado and surviving.

[@JonathanLippert]

Plenty of videos of folks INSIDE tornados and surviving, though I wouldn't suggest trying.

[@WickedRichie]

Look up Fairfield tornado video. Your welcome

[@jrgalluzzo]

Mesmerizing. Like something out of a movie. 😱

[@DINIE0011]

I'm from the Netherlands, and we don't have this big Tornado's. And it's not nice to see the hurting people, and the damage. But....i put it on my "bucket-list", to see one! Sadley enough, i don't have the money yet, to come to the USA, and to go with you, or one off you're collegue's. But i keep hoping and wishing....they are beautiful! xxx

[@47Ru]

DINIE0011 On my bucket list aswell lol

[@apismellifera1000]

That was a spectacular tornado

[@maverick4220]

That was incredible I would of classed it higher then a EF2 at least and EF3 but i'm not expert on tornado classification.

I'd be really tempted to drive right into that thing if I was in the Dominator or the TIV.

[@brandontwining9338]

How long was it on the ground for

[@invisibleinkling1474]

A pillar of cloud by day and fire by night doesn't seem so impossible after watching this.

[@Bobal27]

Do you think we can actually hear what you're saying over the wind? Gotta find a windproof mic or something for this... keep up the great stuff, though :D
