"Record Breaking" tornados hit the US


I was watching a live Youtube channel when a massive tornado hit Greenville Iowa a couple of hours ago. Radar showed debris at 40000 feet! The twister itself set a record speed moving at 85mph! Imagine a twister coming at you doing 85mph! Heavy destruction there. Check out this photo of what appears to be a truck that got ripped off the frame

Was it a storm chaser channel, Todd?

I have to admit that Im fascinated by these storms, but sadly the results are often tragic.

RE: tornadoes


It was on Ryan Hall's channel. He goes live during storm events like this. He links up with a number of storm chasers and tracks all the radar feeds. At one point over 100000 people were watching his channel yesterday. He's a great early warning system and also collects donations for victims during his live feed.

Wow, that's crazy.  The storm chaser thing takes a special kind of person, and I imagine their efforts have helped experts study tornadoes much more closely.  The devastation these things cause is horrible, and selective.  Like one street will be torn to shreds yet a couple of streets over is almost untouched.  I hope I never have to experience one of these personally.  I can't imagine how it must feel - hurricanes and fires are bad enough, tornadoes are nuts.
