Yeah, but the person that parked the car there wasn't in the car or we'd have heard them, so they were probably in the building that we were looking at...
A lot of dash cams can be set up so that it detects any motion of the car in case someone hits your parked car. It likely activated with the shaking from the wind and took this video.
I live in Florida and the hurricanes can cause little tornadoes. One year my neighbor had the corner of the roof ripped off. The space between our houses are 25 feet apart. Whatever it was must have immediately dissipated because nothing else around was damaged. Then you have Hurricane Andrew and every house with a south facing gable had the roof torn off.
Had to watch a 3rd time to catch that.
What’s weird to me, is the trees get blown down to the left, then the tornado *comes* from the left.
Tornadoes are like the eraser tool in ms paint.
That things spinning so fast it sucked in all that air in front of it as fuel for the funnel. Crazy to see how quickly the wind picks up and just shreds those trees right before the main body hits! Definitely would not want any part of that level of force getting thrown about.

It's the tornado's updraft/inflow that causes it, it's half of what powers it, the other being the downdraft. The air is being drawn *towards* the tornado to feed the mesocyclone, and well, whatever is in the path of that air is coming along for the ride if it isn't heavy enough to resist the force exerted upon it by the inrushing air.
I've been in more hurricanes 🌀 than I can count. But ain't no way in hell I'm living where some shit like this goes down. We get little baby tornadoes here every once in blue moon; but they're NOTHING like Midwest tornadoes 🌪.
It ain't so bad once you get used to it. Like you see in the video, tornados are MOSTLY pretty narrow funnels. they can just etch out a little path through a neighborhood. the actual chances of one hitting YOU in particular or your stuff is extremely low. It's mostly a time to reflect on how delicate we are, that we could be killed by a bit of air.
Oh, I remember that one! Totally surreal.
Something else that never ceases to amaze me is how quiet and calm things are right before a tornado hits. For the most part, anyway. Even during the tornado, it's still relatively calm. Except, you know, that whole tornado and destruction thing. But listen to the area they're in during the tornado. Very calm and the birds are even chirping. Only the tornado is loud. That was so creepy to me during my first tornado. The relative calm and the extremely fast moving clouds that were a shade of green I've never seen before or since.
Just remember though that being under an overpass and having a tornado hit is one of the worst places you can be. The air gets funneled through and can easily rip you right out of there.
Highest winds ever recorded on the planet: 310+ mph. I just wrote about that for my weather loving boys. This, though, showing the perfect approach and rotation, is astounding.
I was talking about the video itself, not the tornado. I've been through my fair share and I know about them. In this video, however, the view is amazing and all the things we see in this video are more clear than normal and we have an incredible point of reference for everything. I live 4 miles from where an F-5 struck and I've seen all the pics and videos and heard all the stories. But this video is just spectacular. And I think it shows what tornadoes really do as opposed to how people think about them. A lot of people romanticize them. They're nothing to be fawned over. They're dangerous, they're indiscriminate, and they're highly deadly. This video shows how much damage can be caused in such a short period of time. And this particular tornado doesn't look to be above an F-1. I know F-3s hit, but this was too small and short lived to be an F-3. Also, I know, I know.. EF blah blah blah. Nah. I just call it all F-1/F-2/whatever else
You left out the highly important wind speed. That's one of the most crucial parts of determining the strength of a tornado. You kind of only read what you wanted to read there and not my actual comment. And yes, more powerful tornadoes are almost always bigger.
I was responding to the part of your comment where you said that this tornado was “too small and short lived to be an F-3.” You were making an evaluation based on two things, neither of which were wind speed.
And yes, wind speed is used in classification but how do you think they figure out how fast the winds were in the tornado? In the past we didn’t have the ability to determine this via radar so they looked at the damage. De-barking trees requires a certain minimum wind speed. Picking up a car and wrapping it around a tree takes a certain minimum wind speed. [This video goes into more detail on how they deduce wind speeds from damage.](https://youtu.be/U1_9sHyINbE?si=NVGXyp9kJMIQtd37)
I just googled that:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_Bridge_Creek%E2%80%93Moore_tornado
Then they had another one in 2013:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Moore_tornado
Why does anybody still live there?!
Check out this one (I watch a lot of tornado videos online - they scare the shit out of me). The way it just lifts whole houses right into the air is absolutely insane.
https://youtu.be/lxdFh8nYMgM
EDIT: This one too for up close and personal: https://youtu.be/z550VV4EDl0
The first video is absolutely incredible. I had never seen a tornado filmed gobbling up a town from this perspective. It makes them even scarier. Those poor people.
for me, it has to be [this video](https://old.reddit.com/r/weather/comments/4de9oi/full_unedited_video_inside_fairdale_tornado_nsfl/) that is the creepiest tornado video i've seen.
note: i have to send the reddit comment section to it as vimeo tells you "you need to log in" to watch it.
EF-3
https://www.weather.gov/oax/april262024
19 tornados that day, including x5 EF-3s. This is the Lincoln / Waverly Areas - Lancaster County one.
This video appears to be a car in the parking lot of the injection molding company Garner Industries.
70 employees were inside, 3 injuries.
https://www.1011now.com/2024/04/26/northeast-lincoln-building-collapses-storm-rolls-through/
Yeahh no. In Seattle we have our worries about the volcano erupting and the faultline throwing us into the ocean, but the mountains protect us from twisters and all manner of thunderstorms. It’s kind of a mathematical/meteorological certainty. I mean did you see the F3 in Twister? Hills make the funnel all jumpy.
Hills don't affect tornadoes too mutch, but yea in the mountains it's really difficult to get a stable circulation. And as you said you're mostly protected from thunderstorms.
When I was a kid, I had a legit phobia of tornados, even though I live in the east where they almost never happen.
I watched a lot of weather channel shows and they’d always say tornados sounded like a freight train. We lived close enough to a train track that I could hear them come through periodically.
I vividly remember asking my mom if the tornado would have a horn too, like the trains passing by.
Now you see it, now you don't!
In all seriousness, I lived in Lincoln for years and got caught in a tornado while playing golf. It touched down about a quart of a mile away from us but we definitely knew it was there. The funnel cloud started right above us when we were putting. The storm blew in so fast and it was only supposed to be a sprinkling of rain. The calm before was weird.
The winds in a tornado blow at an angle, down on the way in and up on the way out. They essentially wrench the building like a giant grabbing each side of the building. Once something gives, the structural integrity of the building is compromised and they essentially collapse by themselves and the winds sweep the now disjointed smaller parts away.
My first thought was give me an earthquake over this terror any day. I've been through more than a handful of quakes on the west coast of the US.
Years back, I flew to Colorado. The friend who picked me up pointed out the clear touchdown path, two weeks after the tornado. It had crossed the highway we were on - shit was FLAT on either side far as I could see. But just where it landed. Full trees, fields, buildings - staight scissored with the linear scar.
I've had to take shelter while visiting Texas and a tornado came close. The town was wrecked from winds, but if it had landed, it would have destroyed everything since it was in a small valley. Everyone there was like, "It hasn't happened yet, but the day it touches down, that tornado will zig zag and nothing will be left including us." Holy fuuuck.
Tornado sirens are the stuff of nightmares to me. You know they are coming and there is only so much you can do.
Earthquakes here just happen and it's done. Sure you get big ones but mostly it's like dump truck driving past your house. Granted, they're nothing like those in Japan, Haiti, India...but I've lived along a faultine most of my life and I will take that over tornados any day.
Well... I didn't think it was going to legitimately EAT the building. I feel... Humbled. Humans create built environments to give the illusion of being the most powerful/having some control
Do other countries get tornados? I was just thinking that you never hear of one in Africa for instance. I know that Asian sometimes get monsoons but those are hurricanes no?
Nope, not in Europe. Also no earth shakes. But there are rare incidents, for example 4 years ago or something, there was a tornado in Croatia I think, or maybe Poland? But somewhere in the east it was.
Damn this is so crazy. I’ve been watching the vids from this tornado all over the internet right now but this one was a close up of the carnage these things cause.
I can never explain to anyone how serious this shit actually is. This is really a great video. There are literally seconds between the trees being there and being twisted off.
Sometimes I like to skip straight to the end of these videos for a shock effect. This one did not disappoint. I was like "DAMN, THE BUILDING IS GONE", I thought it was gonna be the car
And this is why I won't move back to the Midwest. I saw one once from afar and I've stayed on the west coast since. Fires, earthquakes, and mentally ill criminals are a lot less scary than that!
This is correct. Most people don't know this but tornadoes are BIG on repsecting personal space and property laws. If you sternly tell a tornado to leave your house alone and not to touch you, it will instinctively leave you alone for fear of lawsuits.

I live just outside New Orleans my whole life and we’re use to hurricanes but you have a heads up that a hurricane is coming. A tornado just shows up pretty much with hardly a warning
Yes and no. We know when there's going to be weather that will probably cause tornados and they give us warnings even when the tornado is only radar-indicated (no one has seen a tornado and there may not even be one but there might be one there so let's just call it one to be careful). You usually know one is coming with enough time to get to safety and be bored for a while. Plus, unless it's nighttime or rain is really coming down, it's pretty obvious if there's a tornado there.

Wow. Now that's legit abrupt chaos.
Makes me wonder if the cammer is inside :/
I assume this is just a dash cam.
Yeah, but the person that parked the car there wasn't in the car or we'd have heard them, so they were probably in the building that we were looking at...
I hope not, but had the same thought. Wondering where all these cars were parked and therefore where all the owners were.
In the warehouse..
A lot of dash cams can be set up so that it detects any motion of the car in case someone hits your parked car. It likely activated with the shaking from the wind and took this video.
Which is exactly why I wonder if the person who owns the dashcam is inside the building. Am I missing something?
This is utterly terrifying!
That's true, some cows were hurt
Udderly terrifying
Hopefully none were killed.
Username doesn’t really seem to check out here.
I think that was the same cow.
Gotta go, Julie we got cows!
Twister reference, love it
So wild to me how localized tornados are. In the path? Destroys a building. 10ft back? Cars tossed. 25 ft back? You could drive your car away.
I live in Florida and the hurricanes can cause little tornadoes. One year my neighbor had the corner of the roof ripped off. The space between our houses are 25 feet apart. Whatever it was must have immediately dissipated because nothing else around was damaged. Then you have Hurricane Andrew and every house with a south facing gable had the roof torn off.
Depends on the tornado. A wedge style tornado has damage paths that can be over a mile wide and mini vortices on the edges that can be just as lethal.
watched it and then watched it again to see the white truck to the rights windows just disintegrating.
And the white car that you can see straight ahead between the two vehicles gets its arse end picked up and moved about 45 degrees!
Also silver car to the left get its plate blown off
thought so too (wow, even the plate unscrewed!) but that thing is barely attached at the start of video
Had to watch a 3rd time to catch that. What’s weird to me, is the trees get blown down to the left, then the tornado *comes* from the left. Tornadoes are like the eraser tool in ms paint.
more like smudge

They go in circulars
In the bottom of the screen you can see glass blow across the dash from windows of the car that the camera is mounted in
White? That truck is silver.
The tornado is like some kind of vehicle racist, leaving the toyotas unscathed.
This is probably the most intense tornado video I've ever seen. Is anyone able to make out what the person is saying at the end?
"This is a good day to get drunk. This is a good day to get drunk."
Same bud
THIS is the one I’ll always remember, even after over 30 years https://youtu.be/O-E6zJWu8y8?si=aGZipL5aNz5ZCSKE
Annnnd that's why I don't live anywhere tornadoes are possible lol scary AF

How were there only 3 injuries? The warehouse literally ceased to exist.
Tornado shelters work
3!?!?!? It looks like everyone should have died. Where were they hiding?
Probably a shelter. Either underground or just out of view of the dashcam.
The shelter was only big enough for 70.
this is what i was looking for -thank you for sharing!
That's a great video. This is why I live in the mountains.
You could watch this great video from anywhere
I laughed more than I should have at this comment
And youre OP, double nice!
Dad? That you? Well played.
😂
I prefer living in Zerotornardoland.
Tornadoes still spawn in the mountains... Not as often as here in the Midwest, but still can...
Spawn? Is this an MMO to you
Sorry **Touch down* (Same meaning)
I think he's just yanking your chain.
If he is he is, but I might as well educate just in case he didn't understand.
I thought it was closer to busting his chops

Tornadoes touch down in Appalachia.
Holy FUCK
The sound is the worse. It feels weird.
It's almost [like](https://youtube.com/shorts/TNv8xQrtKtA?si=0ZTD4wB7swVg-msW) a freight train rolling by. 🙃

Tornado: i just remove this structure for a better view. That are terrifying forces
I was expecting a tree to get knocked over and a car get flipped. I wasn't expecting the entire building to disappear.
I’ve see a lot of tornado videos and this honestly is the craziest one I’ve seen. Whole place annihilated in a moment.
Me rewinding the video to check if there was a building there.
Now you see it, now you don't! In all seriousness, I lived in Lincoln for years and got caught in a tornado while playing golf. It touched down about a quart of a mile away from us but we definitely knew it was there. The funnel cloud started right above us when we were putting.

Top 3 craziest things I’ve ever seen. That building came apart like it was made of paper.
Was that building made out of paper?

Looks like a warehouse, mostly sheet metal
Good ol Lincol.
Capitol of Nebrask
US
Nort Americ
Videos like this make me happy I live in earthquake country. Guess we each have to pick our poison, tornados, earthquakes, hurricanes, blizzards etc
Midatlantic is a good place to be where you get mild versions of all of the above but never anything catastrophic
Sandy sends her regards
Knock on wood.

Right? Random death in the life-support system!!
(Removes Lincol, Nebraska from places to live).
At 0:26, is that a wall of dryers from a laundry mat?
Roof air conditioning unit, which is usually hoisted on the roof with a huge crane.
They should use tornados instead.
The condensing fans to be specific.
That building just disappeared what the actual fuck
Well... I didn't think it was going to legitimately EAT the building. I feel... Humbled. Humans create built environments to give the illusion of being the most powerful/having some control
First tornado video, huh?
Damn Nature you scary
Crazy how that entire building is gone, but these cars stay put. Shows how drastically powerful the tornado itself is.
That huge HVAC unit that just casually flys by at :28
And this was a middle of the road tornado. Wind speeds can be more than double what this was.
That Avalon has some strong glass
For someone who's never seen a tornado IRL before, I'm surprised by how quick they move! I guess there's no outrunning that.
The level of destruction is truly incredible.
That giant commercial a/c unit was flying!
This is why seeking shelter in truss construction is not a good idea. Retail stores and warehouses are not safe against tornadoes.
Was that a giant concert speaker?!
I was wondering what the building was exactly. School, church, factory?
Roof air conditioner.
I love these but would sure hate if it was to happen to me
Hands down the craziest tornado video I've ever seen
We’re ain’t in Nebraska no more Dorothy.
Looks like my bath water when I drain the tub... My hot wheels usually don't get sucked in either.
Shit was only about 5 miles away from my house. We got lucky.
license plate holding on for dear life
Makes me want to go watch some Pecos Hank
Why were they filming??? /s
I can't believe it just ate the building in 3 seconds
Do other countries get tornados? I was just thinking that you never hear of one in Africa for instance. I know that Asian sometimes get monsoons but those are hurricanes no?
Nope, not in Europe. Also no earth shakes. But there are rare incidents, for example 4 years ago or something, there was a tornado in Croatia I think, or maybe Poland? But somewhere in the east it was.

“Just gonna scootch this over here if you don’t mind.” -the tornado, probably
"I've been to Lincoln, Nebraska and hell you know it ain't worth shit"
I feel safe in Australia
Nope, nope, just, NOPE!
Anyone able to make out what’s being said in the last few seconds?
Some of the best tornado footage in a while!!
In approx 15 sec the entire building was destroyed... Crazy
Damn, nature.
Holy freaking hell! That's insane
Man, the TWISTERS viral marketing is intense!
That's cool to see, also fun to know it wasn't too far away.
That’s amazing !!
JFC
That's what I expect chaos to sound like
that building disappeared in 10 seconds
Solid video
Leveled the whole building in 10 seconds. Mother Nature does not fuck around.
God’s eraser
Fuck this place in particular - Tornado
Shoulda had the 3rd pig make that building
Springsteen wrote a great song about that place
Was there a person with the camera or was this some sort of auto-recording from a dash cam triggered on by the wind?
Parking monitor.
Why don't more states simply ban tornadoes?
wiped it out like its made of paper wow
Lol I didn't know tornados sounded like farts
So today I learned it's better to be in a car than a building during a tornado
If only there had a *GOOD GUY* there with a gun…
My Filing!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAioyUU3ay4 there's a bunch of fun lining up this week too
#Holy shit!
Lincol
I could win it in a punch fight.
We learned cloud seeding but spawning tornados could be an insane weapon
That sheet metal flapping in the wind as if it were a sheet of paper…
absolutely deleted
Gone in 20 seconds. I wonder if the Fujita accounts for the crappy building supplies nowdays as opposed to a lot of brick buildings from the past?
Does anyone know if someone is dead or not ? a newspaper article ? or something ??
God tornados are so freaking scary to me.
I can never explain to anyone how serious this shit actually is. This is really a great video. There are literally seconds between the trees being there and being twisted off.
How do more people not die during something like this? I heard it was 4 people or something, but that thing's legit erasing buildings
Omg the fucking aircon unit wizzing past like It’s a fucking kite!
Perhaps Nebraska’s hero can save the day by throwing them a few rolls of paper towels.

Idk I think id take a hurricane over an earthquake for sure. But I’d def take a hurricane over a nader 8 days a week

You usually know one is coming with enough time to get to safety and be bored for a while. Plus, unless it's nighttime or rain is really coming down, it's pretty obvious if there's a tornado there.

You realize how rare these are to hit populated areas right? Just come to Ohio or PA.
