If that's Alligator ally that would be Broward County NOT Palm Beach County😊

Stay safe guys. Best not to mess with a tornado regardless of how powerful.

[@msten18]

Drove right through this area around 1:30pm that day. Had no idea there were tornadoes in the area.

May God help us through this tornado. 🙏

[@davidandersson7642]

There are still more tornados. There has been a new tornado created by Milton...it feels like every 30 minutes.

[@Sundayschoolnetwork]

I didn't realize tornadoes lasted this long!

[@Magesh_S]

Stay safe guys... Don't go out unnecessarily

[@Pondapple]

Sad to say it looks like Kansas. I pray no one was hurt.

[@cracklespinner4802]

Florida has the highest frequency of tornadoes per unit area in the United states..Kansas is getting less tornados there is growing evidence tornado alley is shifting east..so no it doesn't look like kansas

[@Denva_cool]

​@cracklespinner4802 Maybe they do but Kansas tornados are FAR more deadly. This tornado was probably an Ef 1 because their seems to be no damage.

Stay safe everyone in Florida

[@theoceanbuilderproduction8819]

I'm sorry what? A tornado in Florida??? Does that ever happen?

[@unclekenta5050]

mostly F1 tornados and water spouts briefly from severe t-storms. Nothing like these Kansas like Tornado Alley monsters. Jet stream further south creating conditions plus hurricane Milton. Fortunately these are in the Everglades and sugar cane agricultural areas. Fewer people out there.

[@ericaencarnacion6947]

Stay safe

[@quasandrefoster7778]

Oh my God oh my God this is real crazy. I don’t know idea it’s happening in America. This is real crazy.
