This is by far the best "teaching" video for storm clouds I've ever seen. Great job! Love it.

[@nope1904]

Mmm the floor is made of air

[@AxisEsports1]

Probably rotation

[@ninjadog9346]

That second storm was gorgeous! I've never seen a Scorpion Tail before. Reed, I love the way you stand before a storm and point out its features as if it is on a chalk board in a class room. Thank you for educating me, sir.

[@gcrauwels941]

Appreciate you explaining the structure of these supercells.

[@emmanuelmartinez5588]

Truly love this style of video, the information boxes are a great touch to helping better understand and educate about these storms even tho you still do an excellent job at describing what is happening before you as always stay safe! Happy chasing!

[@shelleyszulinszky9732]

So interesting. So very cool. I will be looking for cinnamon buns in the sky now.

[@JEPiper]

Awesome video! I really like the editing style and how the information was presented. Never stop chasing! ❤

Wait until the heavens are rolled up like a scroll 😉

[@Up2_nogood]

0:16 everyone watching the game. Reed is the only guy watching the clouds and pointing at the sky. My man. 🥸

[@christophermorin9036]

The freak out about the rainshaft was hilarious!

[@ReedTimmerWx]

Haha thank you Chris

[@dsm92eclipsegsx13]

@@ReedTimmerWx Why did you guys freak out? Was it making a sound that I couldn't hear?

[@pcodo]

Very well explained !! I like these vids when you explain since the beggining of the storm clouds etc. Great job !

[@Ragnarok182]

4 years ago, I was outside at work when all the sudden at the corner of my eye I had a small low cloud rotation right above me, I watched in awe as it passed by I mean what else could I do it was to late to run for shelter and then a strong gust of wind nearly knocked me over right as it passed by, thank God that was all it did, I don't know if it was a funnel or not, it sure looked like one.

[@etiennedauphin]

You’re likely to have millions of views on this one because you’re reaching way past the usual crowd of supercell geeks. Well done.

[@jackiemarsh2470]

These are Absolutely Scary and Beautiful at the Same Time!! They Amaze me, and That's Putting it Lightly!! Thank You Soo Very Much Reed!! Please Stay Safe!!🌪🌩💕

[@majorcarlton137]

My guy has a PhD in meteorology? You are a weather God sir! Great video!

[@sc2mizzit]

The one time I saw the sky burn orange like that we had a really bad night in Illinois. Top 3 storms of my life. Up there with the microburst in 2003 and the 60+ mph straight line winds when I was much younger from either in or outflow.

[@sarahlachman1349]

I guess that one man has never been to FL you can always hear the rain coming before it starts, and if your lucky it'll be on just one side of the street!

[@stephenlevine011]

Nice video! Combining instructions for beginners with celestial beauty.

[@lancel71]

That was a beautiful storm!

[@Brandough001]

Nice man, this is like a taste of your show Tornado Chasers. I love it, thank you!!!

[@GTIMAN2010]

I saw one of those as a little kid, when a tornado formed near our house. Never knew it had a name.

[@davidm8997]

Outstanding coverage!

[@pelletslinger9869]

This was so well put together! Thank you!

[@stormymary3347]

Breath taking sky 😯 thanks a lot for sharing 💖 Life is awesome with you 😊 like an endless dream, stay safe

[@lloydbellis7360]

Excellent job, great information 👍👍👍

[@gb8518]

I liked so much so interested that I watched 10 times. Gorgeous sky Thank you !!!

[@jackzimmer6553]

Beautiful video! Thanks for explaining the parts of the supercell. I don’t know that I absorbed all of it. Might have to watch it a couple more times!

[@2fathomsdeeper]

One tornado I saw form was from the cloud top down. The storm was forming a nice anvil cloud and the edge of the anvil formed pitcher spout that was headed downward directly into a building thunderhead at the back of the storm. I said, "This doesn't look good!" and immediately the TV started an emergency broadcast message for a tornado. Also saw a gustnado form. It formed on the gust front of a severe storm. It came down with about 100' of thickness and made 3 swipes on Lake Winnebago and went back up. It was over in about 10 seconds, but that tip was moving across the water at a speed of 100+MPH (have seen the Mercury test powerboats, and they don't move that fast). Glad it hit out in the lake about a quarter mile, otherwise my house would have been hit

[@danielletremblay2434]

Beautiful!

[@HMH6592]

Learned some more about the Andover tornado out of this video too. I actually saw the tornado from my job which actually is in Andover, Ks and it was a little too close to home cause if it did not turn right I think I heard one of the storm chasers said after watching other videos of the storm, my house could have be in trouble.

[@branlee7373]

Reed, you are the best! Fantastic work, and we love your narration! Fantastic!

[@Madamoizillion]

I find huge storms and tornadoes fascinating and I'd love to see one someday but they also kind of scare me 😅

[@catherinekamoen6685]

Reed this was awesome those clouds wow

[@WhiteWeather_]

Was so fun meeting you after this beauty reed!

[@bleachcheeks4837]

Never seen a scorpion but i for damn sure have seen tons of barreling clouds in gust fronts, literally look like ocean waves in the clouds. Trippiest things ever. Tampa storms are wierd

[@StormWarningMom]

That was pretty cool!

[@Rafutah]

Man this video was soo good!

[@tomdarco2223]

Right On Great Video

Excellent video.

[@fredtaylor9792]

Great video! 👍

[@chassingheaven]

Secondary supercell was soooo photogenic! Those cumulonimbus tops had to be spiking way over 50k 😮 Swirl on that cinnamon bun is crazy. Would love to see one. 💯👀

[@mashamitchell9574]

Your next sponsor should be Rain-X. All your windows could use it.

[@kimredman5698]

That was a great video!

[@avmii]

there was a nasty storm we had recently. Not a supercell as we don’t get those but I had just watched a tornado video and went outside to see the rain and what the storm was generally doing and there was a small area of rotation right above our house and it freaked me out so bad. It was probably nothing to be truly concerned about still kind of freaky. we do occasionally get tornadoes here but it’s hard for them to form as we don’t have the same conditions as say tornado or dixie alley but still a kind of freaky experience when you receive a tornado warning

[@jeremycravens6973]

damm Reed, your knowledge is very impressive! it really shows when are explaining what is happening. I can't imagine how many hours of studying you have put in! glad it's all paying off for you!

[@kevint1910]

differences in relative humidity make the air layers in to a thermocouple and because it is unanchored in free air the area of effect will under go electromotive rotation which in the us corresponds to the Coriolis as well as convective forces creating a positive feed back that will persist until the heat and humidity in the layers can equalize.

[@wolfgurl71]

Wow! Just wow💫

[@duke_of_destruction]

Did God decide to go surfing??? That was unreal!!!

[@apismellifera1000]

That was a really cool storm

[@TransformintheLord]

Wow! Amazing!

[@HappyQuailsLC]

Great music choice!

[@RideAcrossTheRiver]

My friend's family and I were outside looking at clouds as there was a 30-minute tornado warning for the area. Cloud to the east looked like a vertical slice of jellyroll and was turning over pretty fast.

[@allthesun7114]

Keeping it Awesome 😎👍

[@tomaterjuice5095]

Wow I love your new video style

[@StandingWhere]

Hey, I love how educated you are on this. Do you have any videos that teach how the words you use apply to the storm generation? I would like to look at a storm like you do to know where in flow is happening and where a tornado might happen, or a handoff is happening etc

I was hoping to chase those storms, however I don’t have a car yet. But thankfully I got some really nice lightning when the storms rolled through north of Iowa city.

[@robbielynmccrary872]

please do more of these type of videos showing and explaining what we are looking at.

[@Vito_Tuxedo]

When the supercell ran into stable air, that apparently killed the tornado. So, it appears that unstable air is a prerequisite for tornadogenesis. Fair enough. Ditto for occlusion. But isn't occlusion the effect of RFD wrapping around the lower level circulation, cutting off (occluding) the inflow of unstable air? So, if the unstable air is occluded, how does occlusion increase the intensity of the circulation?

[@sindy8897]

👍

[@henrixs]

🗿👍 amazing

[@postparentingpain]

Do tornados and tornadic activity spin the same direction? If so, which way?

[@toniavasseur9574]

The eye kind of looks like like a UFO

[@loafofbreadx]

Not gonna lie I thought that you were pointing to it with a carrot

[@HappyQuailsLC]

Would you please post the opening music credit? Liking it even more each time I hear it: )

[@haunter124]

If you were the size of one of these storms and lightning struck you, would you survive? Would you even feel it?

[@abarnard3975]

Hey reed one time I got caught in a derecho storm had a giant wall cloud no warnings and it blew through with about 60 to 70 mph wind could it have turned in to a tornado?

[@campervanmark3410]

Hello!! Never stop chasing
