Incredible video! I looked at Google Maps Street View for Mayfield before the tornado. Hard to believe that is the same place. Hope you got your regular sleep pattern back after that trip.
Great video, Chris! I drove through this city about 3-4 weeks after the devasting tornado went through, and I was SHOCKED on all of the damage that mother nature did to Mayfield. It was rather sad to see downtown Mayfield in ruins, especially with the beautiful courthouse.
I worked in and around Western Kentucky - including Mayfield for 4 years.. it has been devastating for the region, thank you for the update. I would never have recognized the place without knowing where you were from the beginning of the video. I will be sharing on social media and recommending others do the same.. May we never forget.
Grew up for 25 years in Paducah. I live in North Dakota now, but I got family in mayfield who tried to describe how bad it was. Hard to understand from a phone call. Seeing it now is wild. Used to spend it a lot of time here. Crazy that it’s all gone now.
Well done Chris! The video was concise and music choice was spot on. Hopefully with donations and perseverance the town of Mayfield can make a comeback.
Point of fact: The lowest rating on the EF scale is EF-0 not EF-1 as you stated. Great video. I remember watching this live on Ryan Hall Y"all's youtube channel.
Me too. We have to continue spreading the word about him! Ryan Hall had me in my neighbor's underground storm shelter during the other Kentucky tornado a few hours after Mayfield was pummeled. The EF-3 that hit Bowling Green and went up the center of the state, ending near Lexington. It jumped right over my house, before hitting Campbellsville. This tornado would've broke the record for longest track tornado in December history, but not quite as long as the Mayfield one. Mayfield, a.k.a. 'quad-state' tornado likely broke the 'longest-track' record for all of history, beating out the famous 'Tri-state' tornado of 1925. All in DECEMBER. Oh, I was also watching him when we had an EF-0 rip a roof off a barn about 4 miles from me just months ago. Where I recently moved from, tornados are rare. "Welcome to Kentucky", they howl!
we had a EF1 in our County it was scary during the Mayfield Tornadoes you honestly think about that scene in Black Hawk Down like Politics and that stuff goes out the window once you hear Bullets its really about Survival and I think like about that stuff like I shouldnt be here but im here ...
Been enjoying your videos for a few years. And the tornado that hit my city of Mayfield was devastating and very scary to experience. I look to the positive changes we can make. We as people must always strive to move forward and be better!
This video was made with a great deal of respect and tenderness for the people and their land who survived this gothic nightmare. Plain and simple. It is full of respect for shell shocked folks and their resilience. Thank you. I appreciate your research on tornados and this storm in particular.. Good journalism spreading safety awareness. They're collecting data and will continue to crunch it for awhile . There were chasers streaming "live" that night and 3-5 miles away seemed the minimum safe distance to get from this thing. Cars falling from the sky snatched up from miles away. Those chaser videos are horrifying. running 6-9 hours long . Unedited.All at night. 'You could visualize the tornados only during flashes of lightning.' It made its own "sound" They were following it right into Mayfield..... where they immediately stopped chasing /filming and went into search and rescue mode.. Some of those seasoned spotter guys are still affected..... My family drove on these pre interstate roads and stopped in towns like Mayfield all the way up to St. Louis from Birmingham. . We would sometimes stop in Mayfield. Mayfield meant that we were getting nearer to the rivers and the bridge heading into Cairo, IL.then Route 3 up to Jefferson Barracks. Chris, this is a well-honed production. I enjoy the ride.
Very well narrated, good selection of music softly in the background. One humble suggest Mr. Chris Harden, maybe a stop and film at some high point sites that require one to want to look at all angles and close ups. Thanks for the journey.
You should drive to more rural places that are part of tornado alley, and famously the eastern banks of North Carolina where hurricanes are super common
THE BARN ? I have eaten at the restaurant many times in my life.. I spent a lot of summers in Mayfield Ky .. My Uncle @ Aunt lived there.. My aunt taught school there for 50 years.. My Grand parents and my Uncle and Aunt are buried there. So thank you for posting this..
I grew up in Paducah and lived in Murray for several years while going to Murray State and I can tell you Paducah is about a 20 minute drive from Mayfield less if you live in Lone Oak which I did.
Awesome video! Ty. Very tragic circumstances. Am I correct in assuming that all of those vacant lots are where houses or buildings once stood? I’ve never had to live through a tornado and I feel for all of those people. Ty for sharing!

@@allenmarvetsthewildbuck3205 I’m sorry to hear this. My relatives are from Lee Co. The counties north were devastated by floods this August. Some of my relatives lived in Mayfield, Paducah. A friend just moved back from Mayfield to Illinois. As a spotter, I watched the tornado live on the radar. We had a giant bow heading our way. Effingham Co Illinois was surrounded by tornados and our county did get hit where there were no villages. Ky radar looked like something out of a horror story. I’m saddened by the news the people are still without homes, etc. It’s not going to be a nice winter either. We’re having a wet La Niña winter.
I agree 100%. Keep America money in America. We have plenty to fix and improve here and people to help. The legal citizens. This current biden government cares very little for America so not looking good for the next few years
Not fixed---cleaned it up. These tornadoes make devastating damage, almost like a bomb going off that can take years, even decades, to recover from. Rome wasn't built in a day, and Mayfield won't be either. A lot of people get PTSD from events like these, and may never recover. Give them time. (Jan Griffiths).
No it’s not. As of 2023, Mayfield still hasn’t recovered fully from the tornado. The downtown area still has empty plots of land; including the courthouse. It may have gotten the most coverage, and some donations here and there, but the town simply does not have the funds to fully rebuild and may not be able to for years to come.
I live in central florida 51 yrs old , been thru 8 hurricanes , cat 3 to cat 4 charley to ian . and 1 huge tornado outbreak in orange , Seminole and kissimee florida . 48 people dead 1989 ... I'll take hurricanes over tornadoes any day .. fuk tornadoes if i have to deal with mother nature .. ill take hurricanes over tornadoes , flooding , and earthquakes .. every time .. just don't live on the coast and dont live in a flood zone ..(without proper and exceptional home or rental insurance ) other than that keep your trees trimmed , and have a generator on hand ... and hurricanes are nothing !!

That must be difficult!

What kind of record do you use?
I see there are some indicators on the bottom of the video.
Record?
I live a few hours away I might go there sometime just to see it with my own eyes

I’ve never seen one either. Almost did as one time there was a funnel above where I was in the sky, but it never touched ground thank goodness.
How about Joplin MO?
What about Joplin, MO? The May tornado of 2011?
@@ChrisHarden yes
@@timothystevenhoward What about it?
@@ChrisHarden have you visited? It would be interesting to see the recovery progress on the city that was leveled in the tornado.
@@timothystevenhoward Not yet. I would like to get out there eventually.
Drive through dresden Tennesee we have tornado debris
I’m mayfield
I don’t even recognize Mayfield. It now looks like it’s in Illinois in the flatlands.
How they coming along now? I heard they. Are rebuilding but i take it most of town still looks like ruines

To bad we don’t make rounded homes with underground levels the norm
Rounded homes are actually not better in tornadoes than normal cube homes
Do you have underground level money?
The federal government can give billions to other countries but what have they done to rebuild Mayfield?
I agree 100%.
Keep America money in America. We have plenty to fix and improve here and people to help. The legal citizens.
This current biden government cares very little for America so not looking good for the next few years
Also the NWS wouldn’t rate it EF5 because of insurance reasons and people effected by this tornado would of received more if it was rated EF5
But they fixed it
