Madison Tennessee tornado large explosion 💥

12-9-23 tornado with large, fiery explosion


[@billtomson5791]

The oversized skeleton on your neighbor's lawn adds an ominously surreal note to the video.

[@musiccityfishing6712]

😂

[@zanehamilton8716]

It's crazy how many people have those giant skele's now!

[@nathanielalgernon975]

They have the skeleton and a Christmas tree, don't see that too often.

[@NostalgiCrazy]

I was so confused, like why is there a skeleton when it’s also December? 😂

[@chriscurtis1578]

It's a scary feeling when they are that close. This same tornado went right over my house in Cheatham Co. Fortunately we live below a big hill, so the tornado literally bounced over us but destroyed everything on each side of us for about 300 yards in each direction. A friend sent us some drone pictures of it right over our area and it was ominous and black. We got in the basement and even though my ears were popping the roar of this thing was deafening. Too close for comfort. Watching your video, I was really surprised that the power on your street didn't go out. Glad you guys were ok.

We've had our share of them over here.

I was in Dec 10th tornado that destroyed Mayfield KY. Thankfully it weakened when it got into my corner of NWTN.

[@xaenex1]

Twister is probably less than two miles away and look how eerily calm it is....no winds, nothing flying around and the trees are not moving at all.

[@StormChaserMaci.]

The tornado at this location was ranked a high end EF2 tornado. There was a confirmed tornado by other trained storm chasers on sight tracking this one. You really can hear that constant roar-like sound real loud around 1:32 Minute mark. Unmistakable tornado sound a.k.a the freight train/jet engine sound. The place the explosion occurred was an electrical plant. This tornado occurred right at the peak of this Dec. 9th, 2023 tornado outbreak. 11 total confirmed tornadoes touched down that day.

[@CenturyHomeProject]

My husband and I went through a nighttime tornado January 2, 2017. It was horrifying!

[@r.nicogorodetzky3084]

Hey, neighbor! Really glad y'all seem to have been okay! Even if it was hard to see, that's still great coverage, and I'm happy to see you took shelter once you could hear it. I didn't hear it because I was sheltered with 11 animals (bird, dog, cat, snake, lizard) and my mom, but even in a quiet shelter it was scary. I WISH I could have seen it, but also am glad it didn't hit my house directly. Hope you were that lucky, too ❤️

[@musiccityfishing6712]

Thank you

[@xxsambxx6513]

Dunno what’s more freaky, the tornado or the skeleton across the street 😂

[@anb7408]

The distant jet engine-style roar of it is the eeriest part of a tornado for me…….knowing just how strong it has to be to create that sound, and ripping apart everything underneath it.

[@dharmaofdog7676]

Incredible. The Lightening itself was intense enough! Thankfully you're safe.

[@musiccityfishing6712]

I didn’t see that many lighting strikes mainly power flashes

I pray you and your family are safe and for all of your unfortunate neighbors. They are much scarier in person for sure.

For all the complaints about his "cussing". If you were facing the possibility of losing your home, belongings, AND your life in the next few minutes. I guarantee you might be uttering a few of these words too. Give the guy a break, it was a VERY stressful situation and people react differently to stress

[@lelandbraun3469]

Well when you are a base person, it is understandable that when under stress, you resort to your natural inclination.

0:37. Skeleton in front yard, Christmas tree in window. Lol

[@storzbickel4328]

Its crazy how calm it seems from this point. I was on the galletine pike headed towards my place in Hendersonville bc i heard it might touch down on the west side. That explosion was less than 10 seconds behind me on the pike and it was some apocalyptic shit, my rear window consumed with hellfire just seconds behind me. I turned on the emergency news and they said Hendersonville was getting hit by tornado so i had no choice but to turn around back towards te explosion. I was so terrified by what i was seeing in front of me I didn't even know a tornado was right behind me and caused that explosion. Came up to a downed powerlines 15 seconds later and turned left into a neighborhood, street was soon blocked by a tree and then I gave up running, pulled into a Guatemalans driveway and called my family to tell them i love em. Sounded like a freight train was passing right by and with the debris flying around and neon lights consuming the sky every 5 seconds i felt terror worse than Filipino in the north pole. Few minutes later the Guatemalan came out to see if i was okay and we embraced like a couple a gay boys that narrowly escaped a gay bar shooting. Moved out of he hendersonville the next morning and moved to Phoenix. No mas tornado town para mi

[@dodgingbullets3503]

🕯🐇Thank you, stay safe; I lived in Madison years ago...

[@deathbloom27]

That is so terrifying, somehow more terrifying than actually seeing the tornado! I can only imagine what was going through your mind at the explosion.

you can hear the tornado n see the power flashes.. I'd be heading for shelter. Hope u were safe n it missed u. What a horrible storm.

[@paulstecker5693]

Friend, do you think it's wise to record this and as tornadoes coming near you I be getting out of there. I be taking off in my car or getting in the basement for protection to save my life. I wouldn't be recording something like that. Hey, you can do what you want. That's fine with me. May God be with you on that one.

[@garydubourjr3773]

I'm glad yall okay!!

[@m.joeymcgrath6842]

I am happy you guys are ok. I would like to suggest something here. If you are able to is invest in a radio scanner like a handheld one to listen to your local amateur radio station as they are spotters for the local national weather service office.

[@pizzathefox8809]

I remember this day. The news for my town/county didn't seem to make a big deal out of it. They just tend to call it "straight line winds". Hope y'all were safe. This was headed somewhat in my county's direction and I'm glad it teetered off before then. Oh December! I can't wait for the holidays! TOO BAD. TORNADO WARNINGS every week it doesn't stay cold.

[@johnclyne6350]

I’m a lineman for the power company. Those are not “transformers blowing up”. That is a cross phase or phase to ground flash. In my over thirty years of linework I’ve only seen 2 transformers blow up. Each one at different power companies. The commentator is clearly not understanding that?

[@southernenigma3427]

The commentator is clearly an idiot for wanting to film instead of taking shelter. Society wonders how so many people get hurt or killed during tornadoes. It's because they wont stay off the effing road in bad weather and they wont seek shelter while there's still time. I dont feel sorry for people that knew it was coming and just "crossed their fingers" and shit and hope it missed them.

[@johnclyne6350]

@@southernenigma3427 The other are people who feel compelled to run or jog after a big wind storm here in Connecticut (New England). We are surrounded in old growth trees here. After a big storm there are trees & parts of trees down everywhere. The worst are what we call “widow makers”. Parts of trees laying in other trees waiting for an excuse to fall. Folks just run around barricades thinking it doesn’t apply to them or just don’t see the hazards above them? We will be working aloft thinking no one else is nearby & we could be dropping broken parts of trees to the ground & we’ll hear “you almost killed me with that”. My reply is “this is a restricted zone”. “You’re not supposed to be here”? There is a reason the town closed the road, they don’t want folks to get hurt? Well, they think they own the road? Some of them are educated people. It takes all kinds!

[@LydiaStarz]

That plus lights still on in houses.

[@johnclyne6350]

The lights eventually go out though. It’s only a matter of time. Unless they are fed underground from the substation many miles away?

Not possible here we live under limestone bedrock most places don’t even have dirt it’s limestone underground utilities is not possible here

[@donepearce]

@@musiccityfishing6712 The UK has the full range of geology, I live towards the edge of London which means limestone - the London artesian basin. All our services, electricity, gas, telephone, all of them are underground. Our streets are not visually polluted with poles and wires. I can't remember the last power cut - it has to be over forty years. You just have to have a reason to do it. And if what happened here is not a reason, I don't know what is.
