Twisters

It began as an iconic Kansas sight. It was a tornado spotted by storm chasers near Emporia, Kansas in the distance as if it were painted against the sunset. It would become a nighttime monster that would also be captured on home security cameras.

It was thin by tornado standards, but it did plenty of damage during its very brief time on the Earth. New video shows an Iowa tornado with the view from nearly directly underneath the spiraling vortex overhead.

During the historic tornado outbreak on Friday, March 31, 2023, a sheriff's deputy in Indiana suddenly realized he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. His dashcam video captured the moment he found himself inside of an intense tornado that was lashing his windshield with debris.

This is one view you hope and pray you never see out of your back door. It's a moment captured on video when a monster tornado blew leveled several Iowa farms during last weeks horrific twister outbreak.

Have you ever tried to take a picture of lightning? What about a tornado? Spoiler alert - It's not an easy task.

By any standard, the first 3 months of 2023 have been excessively stormy. Several major tornado outbreaks already and Spring has barely begun. The National Weather Service has just shared that the twister count has nearly reached 400 already this year.

It's not easy working in law enforcement and that's not breaking news. There's still more evidence of that as a sheriff's deputy in Illinois shared truly terrifying dashcam video after his patrol car was caught up in a huge tornado near Macomb.

This is one of the most terrifying storm chaser videos I've ever seen. A storm chaser who was tailing a monster EF-3 tornado near Lewistown, Illinois took a risk and almost paid the ultimate price. He was rolled by the twister and hit by a grain bin, yet he survived.

It hit in the middle of the night and claimed the lives of 5 souls as it carved a path of destruction through a small Missouri town. Now, drone video shows the damage path of a killer Missouri twister revealing complete devastation.

There is no such thing as a good tornado, but the twisters that hit during the nighttime hours are the most dangerous. A small community in Missouri was struck overnight by a confirmed tornado and there's video showing massive damage done by the storm.
