You can hear the nervousness in his breathing and for good measure. In Iowa, most tornados are short and form quickly. It leaves little time for thoughts.
So creepy. Tornados always seem so sentient, especially when they're forming...
Almost as if nature has consciousness or something, truly strange.
My guess is that we're just connecting with it ourselves, and projecting our own sentience / fear. Seems as good a guess as any.
@@dudermcdudeface3674 I’m guessing you don’t believe in luck.
@@poodook I absolutely believe in luck. I'm just saying we see patterns in clouds, projecting our own minds on to the inanimate universe.
I've been in a severe thunderstorm and every time before the thunder and lightning I could feel and sense when they would hit
I don't know how a camera crew could document a live tornado event any better than this example! good job, everyone...🇺🇸 😎👍☕
I appreciate that, thank you! Sometimes I feel like I'm talking a lot but it's live TV and you can't just have silence ha. Also for those a little confused, you're seeing just one side of the coverage here, when I am tossing back to Rebecca, she is talking on air explaining the radar, warning, places this is moving towards, etc. This is only my perspective :) Also the triangle comment... literally I started a sentence I had no idea how to finish lol.
I hope the farms got spared.
No there is some hog confinement that are not in good shape and I am in Keokuk county
@@claytonharvey6181 when pigs fly? Pretty sure they meant HOUSES . That PEOPLE are in. Livestock loses are a given as are crops. Human lives can't be replaced
I hope the people got spared!
@@Og-Judy i don’t know if they where full from what I heard they were
Yea I hope the people are safe to
As soon as there is debris from the ground, it is a confirmed tornado on the ground
I lived in Iowa all my life don't miss these tornados
Don't blame ya! Been through IOWA... California born and raised.... we're under water and have 58 feet of snowpack on our mountains... crazy...you take care out there wherever you are ✌️
C'Mon Quayle It's Tornadoes 😛
I live in NWFla….”hurricane alley” and a tornado truly scares the hell outta me. Atleast a hurricane gives you a chance to get outta Dodge before landfall.
Beckka left for the bathroom 😄
Make sure that you have plenty of toilet tissue and airfreshner for sure 😂 and a plunger 😂
I do have to say this is the best news vid. The guy did not have the need to talk through the whole thing. Pictures are much better than words.
He was live on air answering questions. This is only one side of it.
Dear God save all the people at Iowa on this scary tornado today..we trust and love you Lord.
Amen 🙏🏽
Amen🙏🏻
Amen...
There is no god 💀💀💀
Amen
I'm from Cedar Rapids Iowa and now live in Arizona. My heart was beating so fast in fear for all of my family and friends living in Iowa. I was so thankful to hear my hometown was spared but my prayers and hope go out to everyone in Iowa, and Arkansas and everywhere that these incredible tornadoes touched down. God be with all who lost so much.
I grew up in CR as well. Now live in WA. I don't miss tornadoes at all. Prayers go out to those affected.
There will be another equally severe or worse outbreak on tuesday evening, just a heads up....
Grew up and lived near Shelby county and also live in AZ... horrifying to watch this. I do not miss tornado season. 🙏
Wow, you guys got some great tornado footage !!! Lots of tornadoes today. Hopefully this one didn't do much damage.
My thoughts go out, as well the storm progresses, to be a threat,
Hope everyone including building structures stay safe.
Rebecca?? REBECCAAAAA!?!?!?!
Prayers to those in the path of this storm!
thank you dad
Another prayer troll looking for vadalation from others by using a natural disaster and other people's misery, now that's really Christian of you!!!!!
It was interesting to learn that a handful of people in the Joplin tornado died from fungus spores being released into the air. A bunch were also sickened and hospitalized with drug resistant fungal infections. It's like adding insult to injury that people who survived the physical trauma of that monster tornado later succumbed to exposure to fungi. Tragic. The dirt being picked up here reminds me of that horrible situation.
Let's reiterate here. HANDFUL. People who are SENSITIVE can have issues with mold and fungus spores. They're always lofted ino the air even just sweeping . It doesn't have to be a huge damaging tornado
Definitely didn't know that thanks for the info
We here in south western MO, got very lucky, and it all passed east of us, but how frightening to see where it will hit.
I have never heard of fungus spores and the first I’ve heard that killed people at Joplin!! Boy-guess u have to think of EVERYTHING!! There was enough death that day!! Joplin didn’t need deadly fungus spores, also taking lives!! How horrid!!!
@@Og-Judy thank you Judy for shedding a little common sense on this comment bringing it back to reality
They are terrifying just looking at them, wow
they’re kinda cute ngl. like dogs
For a one brief glorious moment, those wind turbines produced enough energy to power Manhattan for a week.
In all my years watching the weather and even being close to tornadoes. Never seen what so many saw yesterday. That was a tornado outbreak for the ages. Two distinct high risk areas. Prayers to all impacted by these deadly storms.
See you next Tuesday (That being, 4/4/23)
Dammit Rebecca!
Nice camera work!
Amazing! Probably one of the greatest moments in journalism for this entire station. Great work!
Arkansas got hit pretty hard Wynne county is no more 😢
My Family got hit😢But they are okish
Arkansas deserves it.
There are tornados everywhere. In illinois arkansas tennessee
I grew up in mid Michigan 1966-86 and the tornados (mostly the threat and waiting for them) was terrible, then I lived in Los Angeles from 1986-2013 and went through some crazy earthquakes. Give me an earthquake over a tornado any day, one moment it's shaking, then stops. The anxiety of 'waiting' for a tornado to maybe pass, was just maddening!!....hahahahaha.
Scary to even imagine!! I have lived in the northeast my entire life and could never understand people wanting to live in states where tornadoes exist! Brave or stupid, people stay!🙏💗🙏
@@DraGnFly007 Tornadoes happen anywhere. Most people who live where tornadoes are common don't get hit by a tornado anyway.
We haven't had any big earthquakes in LA since 1986. Northridge was a moderate one but still only in the 6s. Personally I would prefer a tornado since I wouldn't mind living in a storm basement as opposed to having part of my home fall on me in my sleep. But seeing a semitrailer launched into the air is scary as heck.
@@Tokamak3.1415 the 1986 earthquake was in Palms Springs FAR from L.A. and was only a 6.0, some reports say lower, the 1989 earthquake in central California was a 6.9 while the Northridge earthquake in 1994 was a 6.7. PLEASE, if you’re gonna try and correct someone get your gd facts correct!!
@@DraGnFly007 Tornados happen in every northeast state.
Thanks for showing us this up close
OMG. It's beyond words. My heart goes out to all affected. 💕🙏💕🙏💕🙏💕😢
Remember that the tornado can be on the ground causing damage well before the vapor cone touches the ground
Nice catch dude
Used to live in Grinnell, hope y'all are safe!
Be safe every one
That was a slow-moving tornado. That is why I don't want to live on flatland unless you're willing to lose everything you own and you have a good underground storm shelter and hopefully get animals in as well.
That was not slow moving
Incredible footage! Very scary!
Heart wrenching to see it form right next to those houses. I hope all are okay and their homes intact.
It’s always crazy to me how they form when everything else looks so calm weather wise. You don’t get tornado watches here in the southeast US unless it’s severe storming
Great job guys, please stay safe and take good care. 🙏✌️
Great reporting in field!
This is near Grinnell, Iowa
I live in iowa. This was the worst
Between Brooklyn and Malcom Iowa or further out into the country?
This did not have proper structure. This is very odd & unusual.
Thank you all the metrologist
Hope everyone is staying safe!
Thank Man I appreciate
All of this is headed towards my area
At 1:58, you can hear his phone vibrate for a Tornado Warning.
Prayers and blessings to ALL. 🙏❤️✌️
Another prayer troll looking for vadalation from others by using a natural disaster and other people's misery, now that's really Christian of you!!!!!
Amazing footage. Thank you.
Trying to be safe fellas, God bless you all.🙏.
Is that the same God who sent the tornado?
Wow!
Researchers are going to love this footage.
It is very scary seeing this happening did it break up at the end ? I hope so
Wow Cliff. Glad you’re safe. Prayers for all of the victims 🙏🏼. Thanks for sharing. Happy smokes
Nice capture buddy
Fascinating!
Please tell me it took out those ridiculous wind towers?
???
Lmao doesn't matter if it took the turbines. Iowa has a crap ton of 'em.
GOD BLESS THE FARMS
An upside down triangle? That’s a triangle.
Oh wow
Be safe and sound neighbors!
🙏
Perfect video, if you turn of the sound.
what else were you going to call it? Since when is dust required before it’s a tornado?
It can't be classified as tornado until it hits the ground. Once we see the dust, we know that's it's touched ground.
Praying for all affected. This morning the reality will hit. Extra prayers for the farm families from farmers in KY.
Wow
Nam myoho rengekyo 🙏 pray for peace, be safe
Saturday April 1,2023 was insane with tornadoes. So sad for those who lost lives,land etc. Your in my prayersi could be wrong it may have been Friday March 30,2023. Just a totally out of control day for tornado's. I truly pray all are at best ok and alive.😢
Good job , you got it.
Just pray that all the reporters and chasers are safe.
Well, that's horrible.
Yikes
pretty cool
I've always said, If you're watching a wall cloud keep an eye on 2/3rds to the left. Ya can't miss.
What's going on in the United States? Tornado Season normally starts End of April and Mai.
Right by that little house and it moved away from them god bless omg
I was in a basement when it was going down it it moved my mom's parents house a little and they were inside there safe tho!
Wish you had zoomed in on that second wind turbine to see if it was affected.
A truly amazing day at work for this news team 😎🍹
Crazy
Very cool out doing weather and that's a grand slam. Good job
It's working hard to form and touch down
First, let the people and animals be safe and, if possible, their homes. We have windmills south of us here in Missouri and I am thinking they are no match for a twister of any size.
I’ve seen footage of turbines taking direct hits from tornadoes and they can handle a lot. The blades are very flexible and can be “trimmed” to make the blades slice the wind rather than be spun by it.
What EF is it?
Won't find that out until the national weather service does there study on the damage
Wait for the survey
Stay safe
Please everyone stay safe
Rebekkah leavin her boi hangin there
Why does Rebecca not respond?
Brutto. Tanto😱😱😱😱🙏🏾
He seems happy to have a tornado. Weird
Pretty cool
we're not in kansas anymore toto
Being only a few miles away at the time, i dashed into the basement
Looks like F 2 or F 3...wow!
You can't tell a tornado's strength based on how it looks. Also the F scale isn't used anymore
This season is already starting out bad
How lowa
Gawd!
I have a lot of rain outside if my house
WHAT... is an upside down triangle?
A Triangle.
This really didnt even look like it was doing much dmg a slight touchdown and small dust then poof gone
That dust has probably got somebody's seed corn it. Does that qualify as debris?
where rebecca
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😢😢😢😢😢
