On April 19, 2023 a tornado outbreak occurred in Oklahoma, Kansas and Iowa. The tornadoes in this video were near the towns Strong City Kansas and Cottonwood Falls Kansas. A cyclic supercell thunderstorm produced 2 significant tornadoes rated EF2 by the NWS as they uprooted or snapped hardwood trees, damaged a metal panel building, tore down transmission lines and overturned or damaged 67 headstones in a graveyard. 6 other weak tornadoes were surveyed by the NWS with this storm. Three of those I was able to document though they were not highlighted in this particular video.

I wonder if a 6-point or 8-Point Rollcage would help a lot in case anyone ever got hit by a satellite or an EF0-2 🤔 Edit: Actually, rally tires would be good for storm chasing. They can move a lot of water really fast, good for on road and offroad, another thing is coupled with a roll cage you would probably be way safer than stock. And a reinforced windshield as well.

I have been intrigued in the science of tornadoes for a solid 8 years now, but it has been 10 years since I saw one in person. But I'm pretty sure I'm bound to see another one in person as there's a Tornado in BruceVille-Eddy that has apparently touched down. But I think it's best to stay inside because the bad weather is gradually getting worse with each passing minute. Not to mention there's a crazy lightning storm going on in Waco right now.
@ArthurVeenema Жыл бұрын
That shot from 1:28 - 2:00 is superb! The funnel cloud is perfectly framed by the street and trees and lightning flashes in the distance to silhouette the tornado, all while those eerie sirens are going off and leaves are flying all over the place. The storm feels like a giant monster looming over this small town. Amazing work.

The thing that makes Hank's videos the best on KZfaq is he takes much time and care in editing out all the dead space and just leaving us the juicy morsels. Whether those morsels turn out to be 2 minutes, 3 minutes, or 10 minutes, we get all the juice that chase had to offer. Remember the age old snippet of wisdom from the recipe for success handbook that almost always applies, "always leave them wanting more". You'll notice with Hank he leaves you always wanting more whether his uploads are 2 minutes or 20 minutes long! Master video editing skills and lesson so many others could learn from.

Very beautiful storm and although it sucks, the windshield did look kind of pretty after the baseball sized hail hit. I love your attitude and you are an amazing storm chaser/person. I do hope we get to see more of you in the future. I absolutely love your videos no matter what it is about. Keep up the awesome work and stay safe. I am so so glad you didn’t get hurt. 😄💙🐬🫶🏼

Tornado sirens have to be one of the most terrifying sounds in the whole wide world. Their so eerie and urgent at the same time.

the beginning looks like something straight from a christopher nolan movie

Your footage never fails to amaze me. Undoubtedly one of my favorite storm chasers to watch in my free time. Keep it up man.

During monsoon a couple of years ago here in phoenix, we got hail the size of SOFTBALLS. Traffic slammed to a stop, windshields shattered, and RVers were pulling bikers into their RVs for cover. It was biblical.

Hello hank! I haven't watched the video yet, but wanted to get something off my chest, so to speak. Your channel got me through some...pretty dark times in the past. The music you make with your band (My favorite is Glamorous Adagio!), the adorable moments you show with various animals, your intriguing commentary and discoveries (I never even knew of red sprites before your channel lol.). I could go on. But your channel is a beacon of wholesomeness that helped me through a pretty rough time. Since I first discovered you, I got better, medicated, therapitized (original word don't steal x3), and tomorrow i'm taking my first of four GED tests. I wanted to thank you for being cool! For being wholesome, a genuinely decent person, and just...thanks. I hope you find even more joy than your videos give me, because you deserve it. From a stranger on the internet, thanks ^w^
