TORNADO WARNING to FLYING ROOF

Incredible destructive tornado caught on 4K video with an entire flying roof, hovering trees, whirling 2x4's, clear loud sound of a tornado and leveled houses in extreme detail. This is the story of the May 9th, 2016 Katie-Wynnewood & Sulphur Oklahoma tornadoes. For licensing contact [e-mail]
In less than one hour a cumulus cluster would explode into a powerful supercell producing tornadoes with enough power to suck the roof off a house and toss its fragments a hundred meters.
The Katie - Wynnewood Oklahoma Tornado
The first tornado passed inside a mile to my south ripping up trees and striking a house. The tornado sound was a loud gushing waterfall sound and clearly audible. The house didn't sustain a direct hit, yet the entire roof was sucked off its walls and lifted into the tornado, then ripped apart as the bulk of the matter was tossed an estimated 100 meters. The rest of the house was demolished earning this tornado an EF4 rating. A tree hovered above the ground, roof trusses and 8 foot long 2x4's were whirling around the tornado like feathers. Only one fatality was reported with this tornado.
The Sulphur Oklahoma Tornado:
Not long after the first tornado dissipated, a second was born. This one a mile wide beast! It would cause major damage to many homes leaving only interior walls standing. A few unanchored homes, mobile homes and outbuildings would be completely leveled or swept away. A large metal storage garage would be swept away and the vehicles INSIDE it thrown up to 280 yards. (over 250 meters)
RaXPol mobile radar recorded winds over 200 MPH over an open field, indicating that this tornado was likely capable of producing EF5 damage. A young man would take shelter in his home's most interior room while his entire house around him was violently demolished. Only the two walls and toilet he is clinging to would remain. He will walk away without a scratch.
Tornado Preparation:
In the event of a tornado warning, get to the lowest level of a sturdy structure and put as many walls between you and the outside chaos as possible... a bathroom or a closet... whatever is in the center of the home away from windows. There are no guarantees when it comes to tornado safety, but in most cases, this advice works! If you live on the top floor of a small apartment and don't really have a center room, strike up a friendly conversation with your neighbors on the lowest level and discuss a shelter scenario plan with them.
THE FORECAST:
Three days prior to May 9, 2016 the Storm Prediction caught wind of the potential for tornadoes in Eastern Oklahoma and on the morning of May 9, hatched a 10% chance of tornadoes later upgraded with a chance of significant or powerful tornadoes EF2 and above. At 2:30PM a tornado watch was issued and at 3:09PM an isolated cluster of cumulus clouds were evident on satellite imagery with precipitation revealed on radar. Around 3:39 the NWS issued a severe thunderstorm warning and by 4:08 a tornado warning was issued while a tornado was already in progress. Right out of the gate this storm was producing.

It was only a block away when it changed directions. I had no where to go. I had to hide in my hallway. You will never forget something like that. The next day me and my family went to see the damage. I have never seen so many bodies in my life. There was even a body crushed under a car, it was horrifying. To anyone who has never been in a tornado, it is not fun. Tornadoes are scary, very scary. Love your family dearly because something like this could strike at any moment.

You can't run away from the potatoes. They're powerful and can move incredibly fast. People don't realize they're in danger until they're inside the tomato and being ripped to shreds. If they look like they aren't moving there is a very good chance the tomato is coming towards you. So get as far away as possible before the burrito will ketchup to you. Hopefully that cow will live after this devastating tostito. Turntables are scary. Telephones can grow to massive sizes and strengths. Terribles are terrible. Fritos are killers.

I used to live with my grandparents, and they have an old-fashioned storm cellar, a literal hole in the ground. It is set into the side of a hill, and is lined with bricks. We've used it many times. They live in Iowa. One of my most vivid memories involving the cellar was about 7 or 8 years ago. My grandfather and I were watching the tornado scene in the movie The Day After Tomorrow. We looked behind the TV and out the window, and I kid you not, it was dark green. Not long after, we looked out the screen door as one of the lawn chairs was being blown across the yard. Now, mind you, these weren't plastic lawn chairs, these were pine wood chairs, not light at all. At that point, we decided to grab our portable NOAA weather radio, get the grandkids and the dogs, and run to the storm cellar. We stayed in the cellar for a little under half an hour. Luckily, the tornado missed the property by about a mile or so. We took a drive to see if any of our friends and neighbors were affected. Turns out, one of our tractor-repair friends suffered a direct hit on his business garage. It was torn to shreds. However, the house, sitting right next door, had next to no damage(just a few broken windows). Anyway, just sharing a tornado story.

[@booblast500]

Reading your story reminds me of one of mine. My old house 'I have moved since then' had a basement. I did not like going into it. But one day we where getting some major storms and was under tornado watches. I was standing at the back door watching the storm. I had this heavy 3 person yard swing. When I saw that swing go air born I scooped up my chihuahua and ran down into the basement. Just with in seconds it sounded like my deck was being ripped off the house. I was so scared. I always start praying when storms are coming. 🙏 Those few seconds felt like for ever. It was so loud and terrified me. So when it finally stopped I went out and all my deck furniture and gas grill was all up against the house. The grill is heavy too. Then I found out just a couple of miles from me was an EF1 tornado that destroyed a mobile home. Very scary day for sure. But I have seen 2 in my life time both EF1. And since we have moved have had one come with in 2 1/2 miles from us. I was outside taking pictures of the storm and the wind got so bad I had to go in the house. We live in the country now and don't have a basement. But the guy that lives behind us has a storm shelter. But we have been in it. Had to share my story after reading yours. Be safe in storms out there everyone! Love to watch Pecos videos by the way! 😁👍💜 Big fan of weather watching! I just do mine from home.

+Cindy Wylde We have not been in his shelter*

[@khrongyrr]

I live in North Central Texas and have encountered 3-3.5 tornadoes. Chronologically it was 2007-2016. Locations were at home, then years later at school, then in Oklahoma on the way back from family. Most recently last year I saw a tornado forming before my very eyes, I saw the updraft and the circulation. I say 3.5 because it was only a funnel cloud, I could not see the rest because of the heavy rain wall and hail. This year should be interesting, storms are supposed to happen this Sunday.

[@Nautical_Parsnip]

Will Connor there was once a severe thunderstorm when I was at Girl Scout camp a few years ago and I had to comfort a group of terrified 6 year olds who where clinging to me. And little did I know that meanwhile at my house there was a tornado warning and my mother and sister where sheltering under a table because I live in Maryland and we have no basement or tornado shelter because my house is so old

The music Hank uses in his videos honestly fits with his footage so well. This is why I watch his videos. Great footage, great commentary and great music.

[@terriabowling]

My step dad was a part of Eye Watch back in the 80's. Any significant weather we'd all be in his van, him with his ham radio, reporting where these tornadoes were. To say I've got a very healthy respect for tornadoes is an understatement! One I in particular remember was in spring 1982. We were going from our home in Northeast Texas to see friends in Missouri. Right as wer got to the Paris, Texas city limits 4 tornados touched down. I was only 12 y/o and that was the first time I'd ever seen anything that destructive! One house was cut perfectly in two. I could see in the living area and the chairs were still setting having not been touched. The other half was simply gone. Cows dead. Who housing complexes leveled. People out walking around. My mom looked at my dad and said, "Roy, if we didn't have all these little ones with us I'd get out and help." At 12 I was the oldest of 6 children they had. The youngest was my sister, Karen, who was less than one year old. Fire Dept lifted power lines so we could get through. I'm just thankful we weren't in the direct path if those storms. Thought I'd share that memory.

You can't run away from the potatoes. They're powerful and can move incredibly fast. People don't realize they're in danger until they're inside the tomato and being ripped to shreds. If they look like they aren't moving there is a very good chance the tomato is coming towards you. So get as far away as possible before the burrito will ketchup to you. Hopefully that cow will live after this devastating tostito. Turntables are scary. Telephones can grow to massive sizes and strengths. Terribles are terrible. Fritos are killers. Totino's are ugly and beautiful. McDonalds.
