@KaseyWithers29 күн бұрын
Imo, I think this storm is partially why el Reno ended up the way it did. Like obviously it was an insane storm, pretty unpredictable. But I really think chasers had it in the back of their minds "oh this is gonna hit Moore too" , so they might have had an unconscious bias towards it moving east. Like they weren't fully paying attention to what the storm was actually doing, because half of their minds were focused on Moore. That storm was huge and widened out unexpectedly, it had weird motion, but idk. Watching the storm spotter network of that day, it looks like so many of them were priming to go towards Moore. I wonder how that played into the ways chasers reacted in the moment. Seeing so many seasoned chasers get hit that day, I really think they half expected it to keep moving east.

Also, my mom, sister-in-law & I went down there to help with cleanup of the cemetery near Plaza Towers elementary to prepare for burials of those lost. We just couldn’t believe what we saw.

Though one person who was a patient at Moore Medical Center on May 20th told her story in the video: a woman by the name of Lacy Jacobs. Lacy had arrived at six that morning to be induced for labor with her husband. As a result the weather was the last thing Lacy had on her mind. Early that afternoon; Lacy had delivered her second child, a boy whom she and her husband named Kellan. Though when the tornado warning was issued Lacy was evacuated downstairs to the cafeteria from the maternity ward. Lacy was understandably frightened by what was occurring while she was checking her phone to stay informed on the situation at hand. After the tornado had moved past the hospital following its loop; the patients were evacuated to the Warren Theatre. Lacy was absolutely bewildered by the destruction she was seeing after getting out of the hospital.

Man oh man. May 3rd, I was in 5th grade and lived 2 blocks east of Plaza. The damage from that tornado hit the more northern sides of Moore. By 2013, I was living in northeast parts of town. Seeing the absolute destruction of the town you have lived and grown up in is quite mind boggling. But seeing it twice, I'm not sure my brain really believes what it saw. I dont recall what the May 8th, 2003 tornado was rated but I remember looking out a window and seeing it headed right for us. That sight alone would be something 99% of the population would always rememeber and instill fear. For some reason, its hard to imagine wanting to move away from here. Mondays in Moore in May. There was a mobile home park that was MAYBE 1/3 of mile east of Plaza Towers that somehow wasnt absolutely demolished. I'm quite sure Michael Lynn made it to his daughter, he calls the football games for MHS on radio.

@QueenofTNT26 күн бұрын
Kind of depends, admittedly. Stuff like brick and concrete can get ground down into dust from the force of the winds alone if the tornado is strong enough. It makes it into the world's biggest sandblaster, sort of. Wood, grass, and other stuff one would usually consider less dangerous can still kill pretty easily at tornado strengths like the one talked about in the video; the two examples that come to my mind are the Jarrell and Joplin tornadoes; Jarrell was so slow and powerful that straw was found almost thatched into the cadavers of...whatever remained. Joplin also as there are several well known images to come out of it, one being a large splinter of wood that was going so fast it *impaled a concrete curb.* Basically: Concrete bad because you'll get sandblasted, Wood bad because you'll get impaled. Debris are a risk regardless of tornado intensity, because best case it's hurling debris at around highway/interstate speed, and at worst it's hurling the exact same debris but now at the speed of a Tokyo bullet train! Woohoo!

I watch your videos from Italy, when tornadoes fortunately are a very, very rare natural occurrence. This tornado, with the El Reno one, impress me for one thing. While El Reno, with his erratic motion, seemed to be born to chase and get storm chasers on his path, this tornado seemed to chase every school it could smash in his track. Striking all those schools in a bunch of minutes is mind-blowing and absolutely terrifying. Anyway, great content of yours. Keep it up!

We watched this live on TV while visiting my sister north of Joplin. We were moving to the area and decided we needed to have a plan. We went out the next day and purchased an above ground storm shelter. A year later, we moved farther north of Joplin and had that shelter moved with us. There was already an in-ground shelter, but we needed something in the garage so that my elderly parents would have a chance. Both shelters are stocked with water and MREs as well as basic tools. Our biggest hole in this is the lack of warning sirens anywhere close to us. All we have is the Weather Radio.

0:24 I'm glad you also included the Shawnee, Oklahoma EF4 tornado 05/19/13 that happened the previous day! The closest precursor to the 05/20/13 EF5 tornado was the 05/24/13 Chickasha EF4 tornado, with many suspecting it being EF5 tornado.

I remember watching this tornado from start to finish on TV in Texas. I saw it live on the Weather Channel, and by the time it became wedge and started heading towards Moore, that's when CNN started covering the KFOR stream. When it was over, my jaw dropped the devastation in real time, but what broke my heart was hearing about what happened to those elementary school kids because they went through my worst nightmare as a kid and 7 of them didn't make it. 10 years later, I'm a truck driver now, and I take loads to OKC all the time, and every time I pass the Warren Theater or 27th street(May 3rd path), I always get a chill down my spine just thinking about those tragic days.

This was the 1st and only time my 78 year old father ever got in a storm shelter, despite living in tornado alley his entire life. It's the only time I'd ever heard him scared of the weather and the reason my family has a shelter in our garage (Yukon, OK).

have you ever thought about making a video about the Bangladesh 1989 tornado? There aren't many great videos on it, and it seems really interesting as it was outside the US and apparently it was the most lethal ever simply because of population density. Great video!

What a fantastic presentation of the Moore tornado of 2013. The track and sheer devastation of this thing is unbelievable, but the way you've put this video together really gives as close to an understanding (as much as one can have for not being there) how truly apocalyptic this beast of a tornado was. Great job on that. I hope those involved have recovered and am sorry for the ones who lost their lives, their families and those who are still struggling or suffer from PTSD to this day.

Hey TRX, I watched Moore Tornado from start to finish, remember being not even 6 miles from where it started and watched it die and I was 6 almost 17 and remember helping people through the rubel, truma still sticks but Im glad I was there to help even though I was so young.

Another incredible video. Really is inconceivable. It pretty much took the worst path it possibly could've, hitting multiple schools and a hospital, as well as making a full loop. We've been pretty lucky since Moore. Although we have had some VERY nasty tornadoes since, we haven't seen anything to that degree. The Western Kentucky/Mayfield is arguably the closest we've gotten. But we *will* see destruction the likes of Moore or Joplin again at some point. And I am really dreading that.

I was born in 99 and have lived in moore my entire life. I was at Brink jr high when it hit. my current girlfriend was in plaza towers when it was hit. Nothing felt real the following year after. What I will say is that I'll never leave this place. I currently live on 19th street in Moore and wouldn't change it for the world. The people in this community are closer than most families after this. I always take May 20th off work just to reflect and spend with family. Thank you for such a great video

Something I wish you wouldve discussed is home shelters post-1999 in Moore. IIRC, after the 1999 Moore tornado, a lot of people opted to try ground level "tornado-safe" concrete rooms instead of basements. I wonder if a lot of people survived this tornado utilizing those or if they were even effective.

I really like the way this channel puts everything together for a video. It’s always done very well. I personally haven’t ever even seen a tornado but it’s one of the things I’m most afraid of. I live in SE Louisiana, right on the Mississippi line in a very rural area and the amount of tornado warnings we are getting has increased dramatically in the last year or so. Nobody around here has any kind of shelter or even a basement. We would have zero chance if we were to ever have something like this coming at us. I can deal with hurricane season more easily because you have a lot more time to prepare in whatever way you need to
