    I have been in Andover several times visiting my son, daughter in law and granddaughter. Seeing this was shocking. All I could do is pray and be thankful that they weren't affected like others. Prayers to all.

      This is why it's good idea to be a good neighbor. It's a simple phrase. Love thy neighbor. Oops, almost forgot that most people forgot just a few simple words. Guess the one's who weren't good neighbors. Will just be homeless. Where you have only one choice. To be good. BY the good grace of God. Have a nice decade.

    I live in Andover and have been a certified spotter/chaser for around 5 years, I have never really had the chance to chase due to the fact that I didn't have my own vehicle to chase in. Last night I had my first experience reporting an at the time funnel cloud. I had left my home to go check my horse after the cell that we were in had lost its severe warning, the meteorologists were saying that the cell was falling apart, so I felt comfortable leaving my 3 siblings at home while I went a few minutes away. As I pulled into the driveway of the barn I saw a funnel cloud forming, the strange thing was that there was no mesocyclone, I immediately called my sister as the funnel was extremely organized and I had just got an alert that they were reinstating the severe warning, I told her to get to the basement with the other 2 and to wait for me in the safe room. I then called the EMA office as the funnel was dropping, I was about 8 minutes from my house and quickly drove home to my sisters. My parents were not home and I couldn't leave them at home alone while I sheltered in place, my gut was telling me that I needed to be with them I was willing to do whatever it took to get to them. I made it to the safe room about 5 minutes before the tornado tore through my neighborhood of Reflection Lake. We were lucky and don't have much damage, a neighbor's roof went through our window, the siding is in bad shape, and we have minor roof damage. Overall we are very lucky, no one in our family was hurt our house is still standing and livable. A lot of our neighbors are not as lucky, quite a few only have a foundation left. I don't think that I will ever forget that feeling when I saw the funnel forming over the direction of my house and not being able to gage how far away it was or the sound of the window being smashed in and the tornado only 50-60 yards away. The calm and silence right before the tornado hits is the most eerie sound you could ever hear. Currently there are no known fatalities, I believe that it was rated EF-3. This tornado took place 3 days after the anniversary of the April 26, 1991 EF-5 tornado that haunts this town, anyone who lived here at the time can tell you in detail where they were when the tornado hit. They say that the tornado that hit yesterday was on the ground for more that 20 minutes. My plan for the evening if my parents decided to stay home was to go out and chase, I never thought that I would be racing a funnel to my house. When I called I asked before I hung up if anyone else had called and if there were other spotters in the area, I was told that I was the first to report, I can only imagine what would have happened if I had done anything differently, would it have been reported in time, would my siblings and I have seen it in time to get to safety, how many lives would have been lost. I think these questions will haunt me for a while as I prosses what happened. I feel that when you have grown up around tornado alley and have lived through multiple tornados that never directly affected you, you almost get this sence that it couldn't happen to you that it is something that happens to other people a few miles away, but you never really know, it could be you being dug out of the rubble of your home next time. I will forever be grateful that we were spared, and I will never forget that feeling of driving hoping and praying that I would make it home in time, and the feeling of relief when it was all over and seeing my parents and grandparents safe. Looking at the footage and walking through the neighborhood I have come to realize just how close we were to being hit, the Lake and 3 home separated our home from those that are leveled, I pray for those less fortunate then us and plan on helping with clean up as soon as we are given the all clear.

    It was almost exactly 31 years ago to the day for the 1991 EF5 in Andover, April 26th. I was in Wichita on business from Atlanta and hadn't been there for more than 2 hours when the thing hit. I was staying at the Residence Inn off E. Kellogg somewhere near the Cessna plant and remember having hotel staff banging on my door to come to the storm shelter. Scary as hell.

    A very sad video to watch....But important! All the structures have interior walls standing. Anytime facing a tornado, it is ALWAYS better to shelter in place. This video shows that sheltering in place in the center of your home will save you! Just like the warning says from the National Weather Service. I ain't saying it is not scary af, but it is safer than running in your vehicle.

    • @sleepib
      @sleepib 2 года назад +1

      It's impractical to build every home strong enough to survive a tornado, simply because of how rare tornadoes are compared to how expensive it would be to survive them. I suspect it would cost less to build two homes each with a small shelter. Force scales with the square of wind speed, so to go from surviving say 90mph winds to 180mph winds, you'd need to build 4x stronger. To survive the strongest recorded tornado, you'd need to build 10x stronger, or build entirely underground.
      There are 3M people in Kansas, and tornado damage is about $100M/year. So in a lifetime each person will lose on average ~$3k to replace property lost to tornadoes. There's no way you can reinforce a whole house to survive a tornado for that much money, so it's more practical to get a small shelter to protect your life, and insurance to cover the risk of losing your property.
      There's also the fact that most people don't have the option of choosing a tornado-proof home. You'd only have that option if you're rich, and building a new home instead of buying one that's already on the market. Most people have to choose between buying a house and renting.

    It was a powerful Tornado but I can just tell buy looking at many of the homes that the build quality is garbage. These mass builders are just spitting out homes and putting in the bare minimum and city codes are way to weak. That Tornado would of done minimuim damage in Florida due to the code requirements for hurricanes...but in Kansas....homes are paper thin.
