I knew nothing about tornados outside of the fact that they plagued my nightmares, until I finally decided to get over my fears and watch a video of one for the first time ever last year. Ever since then, I've been hooked. Now that I have a better understanding of them, I'm not so worried one is going to pop out at any time in my northern Michigan home lol I used to think they could just show up at any time if it was cloudy or rainy 🤦‍♀️ it was an annoying phobia.

    I live on the Gulf Coast near Pensacola, and watching a waterspout form is beyond surreal, thankfully they need the water, hence their name cause they always dissipate before hitting the shore. Also, there really is something beautiful about seeing giant shelf clouds roll out over the beach; that eerie stillness mixed with being alone has an almost spiritual feeling for me.

  • @absolutezurro4102
    @absolutezurro4102 Год назад +334

    Shelf clouds are super menacing to look at, but whenever they roll over, it always just ends up being heavy rain for a few minutes, a couple strong gusts, with some flashes of lightning. Those storms are just never as exciting as they look.
    Btw, I loved that you used the water level theme from Donkey Kong Country when you started talking about waterspouts haha. I’m like, “wait, where do I know that song from??” Nice touch!

      @crossinggate84 Год назад +23

      I agree with your take on shelf clouds 95% of the time, however, I live in Iowa and the August 2020 derecho still lives fresh in my mind. I remember seeing the shelf cloud approaching and thinking it was just your typical squall line. However, this storm was much different. The best description that we locals had for what it looked like was "inland hurricane." Cedar Rapids, the city hit dead center by the Derecho, received damage indicating winds of 120+ mph (190+ kph). The city was out of power for days. Even in my town, which was not the location of the strongest wind speeds, lots of debris was flying through the air, and many entire trees and power lines were downed. The craziest thing was that the most intense part lasted for over 20 minutes and there were strong gales for a couple of hours after the storm had passed. That is unheard of for an already rare weather phenomenon. Iowa is pretty derecho-prone, we usually see about one a year. But I had not and have not since seen a derecho anywhere near the intensity of that monster. I will never forget that day.

    Actually most tornadoes are multi-vortex at various times during their lives. Primitive imaging before we developed better motion picture techniques did not show the phenomena. People did not know what they were looking at when they saw them. Ted Fujita and his teams of researchers were able to demonstrate this in lab conditions. This also explains why one house was decimated while the house next door was barely touched

    8:52 My hometown in the middle of the mountains was visited by a landspout tornado in 2008. It's what sparked my extreme phobia and fear of tornadoes, even though it had zero reported deaths, injuries, or even damage. It was apparently very small, only about the size of a trampoline or two. It's the only tornado my hometown has seen, although we have seen far too many funnel clouds than what is comfortable....some were pretty massive funnel clouds, too....Thank god they didn't touch down. I have seen landspouts in my town since then (might've been cold air funnels), but I have to wonder if I should be terrified or not? They're usually extremely thin and I've never heard of a single one injuring anyone or even causing noteworthy damage. (I have heard of them causing terror in other parts of the country though)
    Should I be scared or is it usually okay to just look and be like "hehe, that's cool"?

      A landspout can be dangerous, some reaching windspeeds that make them technically EF3s, at which point the roof of a house can be ripped off, but the vast majority are harmless. Just don't go too close I guess, even a weak one will get dust and dirt in your eyes and that sucks.

      We had a waterspout hit our bay in the middle of an extremely populated festival that sits at the coast when I was 5. I don't remember much, just my dad dragging me by the hand and booking it to the buildings, the sand hitting my skin, finding a covered cove at an entrance and him holding me against the wall. It was over within minutes, but like a dozen boats were beached and destroyed, the docks torn up, we went back to the festival but I had zero interest in staying after that lol. It was oddly very sunny afterwards, it was just spooky to my little 5 year old brain. After that, I was absolutely terrified of anything close to a tornado until I started watching videos about them and learned more.

    I live near Michigan during this crazy winter storm of 2022, and I also live in the country so the wind + snow = huge spots in my yard that had a depth of probably 2 feet of snow. It was fun watching little "tornadoes" but nothing was as big as the snow one in this video. Very cool to watch when they are small, though!

    Was driving onto a mine site that I work at, and as I came over the mountain and looked into the pit (the pit is a missing section of the mountain range cut way down below the adjacent valleys) I could see not one, but _two_ kilometer tall dust devils moving across the flat blasted areas between the pit and the road going to the loadout. It was beautiful, the huge black columns meandering along beside and between the autonomous haul trucks.

    Anytime I see these videos I’m always waiting for my hometown to get mentioned. I was like 9 or 10 and tornado was so scary. We had a shelter we went down to frequently because we had tornados once or twice a week, and when we heard the news reporter say that Walmart and rangeline was just gone I was bawling in fear. My whole town pretty much demolished, when every tornado we had before that did minimal damage. Rain wrapped tornados are horrifying, and the sky was so clear before! what’s weird is after that 2011 tornado we don’t get warnings anywhere near the frequency we used to here, 4 to 10 a year instead of like 40. The Joplin tornado like the Moore tornado had very strange circumstances surrounding it, it’s crazy to see how much the worlds weather phenomena change over the years.

    I saw a baby dust devil on my way home from work today! There’s some construction on my route, and the blocked off lanes are all dusty with dirt. At first, I thought there was just a gust of wind, but then when I got closer, I realized it was an actual whirlwind of dust. It was pretty small, probably no more than six feet in diameter, and I looked up and saw that it had a faint tail. It only stayed around for less than a minute before disappearing, but it was really cool to actually see one up close.
    I never thought I’d get excited about seeing a whirlwind in general, but watching your videos has made me more knowledgeable and less afraid of natural phenomena.

    Watching from northern Canada. At Christmas this past year I was traveling even further north during a snowstorm to visit my daughter and family. Driving in bad snowy weather is not abnormal up here. I have good snow tires so I wasn't too worried. Usually the highway has thick pine forest on both sides of the road but I was driving on a stretch of highway that had been clear cut. A huge snow tornado formed and crossed the highway right in front of me. I'd heard about them but had never seen one. It was an awesome sight. I stopped my car and watched it. It went as high into the sky as I could see. I've seen little snow swirls before but nothing like this. I can't imagine seeing or being in a wind tornado out on the plains. Nature is terrifying.

    I still remember watching videos of the Nashville Tornado and wondering why it was just a big blob with no structure to it. Come to find out, it was so famously rain wrapped , the news crew filming it didn't realize it and instead forcused on a suction vorticy on the edge of the rain-wrapped blob. I think the second the 3 transformers on the right blew out, they were like "holy shit this whole thing is a tornado!"

    The coolest "tornado" I've ever seen was at an air show for the blue angels. I saw one of the jets starting up, and as it was starting up, a random tiny tornado formed on the ground and was being sucked into the intakes. It formed near where all the fire was coming out. It was a cold day too, so I guess humans can cause them to form too

    In the hills of Western PA we tend to get a lot of Snow Devils in our open farmland. I’ve had a few encounters as a kid where one would form while sled riding. They were never too strong so you could safely run right into them. It was a uniquely fun feeling being 10 years old and being tossed around by the winds.
