You got VERY lucky! This could have turned out really bad for you. Even though I chase storms myself, I definitely wouldn't recommend staying next to a window if this happens again. Even the rear flank downdraft and inflow on the edges of the tornado can be deadly. Congrats on a great vid though!
@@BrandtD You knew if was earlyer an f 2 ? seems it weekend to a 1 or zero going by you or all most over you. then it regained its strength to an F2 again. Abit scary for tornados don't know what they are. lol Good vid and i'm sure the National weather service and news would love to put you in the News. they probably did wile you got your benefits? not usuall for tornados in some areas.
Glad you guys got lucky, Thank God! The ending was spectacular! That buzz noise of the wind crazzzy! Thanks for sharing and great job catching an amazing sight of nature so close!
GEESH! You were right there weren't you!? It was shocking how they didn't set off the tornado sirens, at least not from what I remember or heard in your video. We got hit by the Nov '13 one and got the tail end of this one. It was terrifying, but man you got some great footage didn't you? All I saw was grey sky. BOO! Hah! Great video though :)
I remember this day, I was 9 and BOY WAS I SCARED. We we're constantly watching the weather, I packed my stuff, and at like 2 AM the tornado siren went off in my town and we had to go to the churches basement
Yes. Haynes International owns 4 sirens on the west side of town at their plant used for industrial emergencies and also set off for warnings and the Taylor Township FD has a siren on the south side of town and one SE of town. Those are the closest sirens to the city. The city of Kokomo does not own any sirens, but they probably should...
I remember this.. I had literally called my bestfriend who lived across the street from me and told her to get to shelter like immediately because I knew we were going to get hit. As soon as my sister and i went into our house, it hit us... The house next door across from dan's was completely gone.
I wish you'd not covered up the left microphone. It makes it impossible to wear headphones. Otherwise, incredible video/audio especially that thunder. Also, just an FYI: I'm totally blind and have been all mhy life, so I really enjoy listening to these videos. I did like and sub, because I can't make my own videos, so I really enjoy featuring some of the best videos about everything from aviation to weather. Were you at home when you filmed this?
Most people don’t realize that lightning is just if not more dangerous than the tornado...I guess what I mean is, your more likely too get hit by lightning while filming than the tornado itself...
You just got the edge of that tornado. Man! Did you just leave the camera there and go downstairs? I heard a door close, so I thought that's what you did. It sounded like it just cut off by itself. That was horrific! I've lived through two tornadoes, an F5 and an F4, ten years apart on April 4, 1974 and 1984. Ypup. I was hit by the last tornado in the Super Outbreak of 1974, and ten years to the day later, (and almost 12 hours), I got hit by a double-vortex tornado. We were very lucky both times, even though our houses were somewhat damaged on both occasions.
I'm guessing that tornado was EF0 or EF1 maybe rather on the weaker side. Me personally I wouldn't have risked my safety even if I knew that but with that being said it was still some good footage toward the end starting at 10:00 👍🏽
My friend’s home was destroyed in that tornado. You were very lucky if not a bit foolhardy when you saw that coming right at you. No video is worth chancing your life.
I've been going around today commenting on videos of this one and the one a week before it, but had to leave a comment here too... I was in the basement at IUK when this went through, so only about half a mile from the path. About an hour after it had passed I left campus, I drove just a block north, and at Washington & Boulevard, there were already big branches down, once again probably more than half a mile from the main funnel's path. I decided to just leave town for the day and not try to see any damage, the traffic was already backed up horribly. Of course, once I got home I heard more tornadoes were headed that way and something like 5 more touched down in Howard County through the evening. A few days later I went back and drove by Markland Mall... of course, we all know about how that Starbucks ended up, but the Cedar Crest neighborhood on the opposite side of 31 from Markland Mall was decimated. I'm not sure which neighborhood this one is, but I definitely saw similar and worse damage in other parts of town, so it's crazy to watch it unfold in real time here. It's so surreal watching this kind of thing happen to areas you know well.

Here comes a tornado! 🌪️ Let me open the windows and front door so I can stand in front of them so I can record me and my house about to be demolished. Not a smart move. Glad you are okay 👍
Hi @ Brandt D I hope you weren't affected by these awful tornadoes. I work for a TV company and we're making a documentary series about extreme weather that is broadcast around the world. We are telling the story of the Kokomo tornado - can we use some of your footage, with a credit to you of course? Can we chat over email? I am on samanthaappleby@titlerole.co.uk thank you! Sam

Kevin Day are u on a chase team
no
I like listening to the radio "chatter" in the background. Nice touch!
Thank god that baller-ass black & white stretch town car/limo survived.
I love how you slammed the window shut before leaving the room. I imagine you saying "nope. Not today, tornado." 😂
Awesome Amber LOL

Liked the scanner in the background.... kind of like a play by play. Very scary stuff.
Seriously underrated video!

Which storm do you think did the worst, The Derecho (2012 Severe Thunderstorms), Or that Powerful Storm (2016 Tornado Producing Thunderstorms)?
I remember this day, I was 9 and BOY WAS I SCARED. We we're constantly watching the weather, I packed my stuff, and at like 2 AM the tornado siren went off in my town and we had to go to the churches basement
The transformer flashes at 7:58 would probably be my neighborhood... about 3/4 a mile from here.
Remembering this gives me the chills to this day
You my friend, you have some big balls. Great job i felt that beast
WOW Man!! That was a tornado alright! Whew you got some nerve!!!
Very good footage excellent video!
It’s so interesting to listen to a cop scanner
It seemed to barely miss your house! That thunder!
Best video I've seen so far. I live there too and all we heard was the Chrysler sirens and the fire house siren.
am i the only one to notice their were no tornado sirens tho!?
i can't remember if they had the sirens or not but i do know for sure they had sirens for the tornado's after this one.
Kokomo does not have tornado sirens.
+squiddy7863 You sure about that?
Yes.

+squiddy7863 Learn something new everyday haha. After looking at your channel I now know that you're sure about your sirens.

Power flashes and debris in the sky never a good sign. Well done, nice vid.

Golly, with that kind of windspeed it must've been something like an EF-triple-negative-ninety, huh
You were 100 yards from it! Amazingly lucky!
Wow great job staying calm on our behalf you got some big ones if you know what I mean well done
Amazing footage!!

There were 8 tornados that day. They ranged from an 1 to a 4.

that folks is how you shoot video. Great job.

This is amazing video. I wasn't even this close to it (my profile picture is of the wall cloud that produced this very tornado).
Ethan Wx are u on a chase team
No I'm not.
do you live stream
No I don't
Ethan Wx please email me tornadowxchasersteam@Gmail.com
Had me on the edge of my seat!
muito bom amigo. parabéns pela filmagem
At 6:45 there’s a power flash just left of those trees.
Is this the storm that hit the mall area and took out the Starbucks?
What was going thru your mind when you filmed this
That THUNDER, though.
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Amazing video!
Did local Emergency Management not think it was necessary to activate the sirens?!
No sirens close anyway. I grew up in Lafayette, In. just west of Kokomo and that is exactly why I moved to Utah 43 yrs ago.
By the way it was an EF3 and caused 20 injuries. I looked it up.
Wow, I know that was an adrenaline rush.
The sound improved at around 6.
Heather stubbs .
Why no tornado sirens?
Because they were probably not close enough to be heard.

حقيقة اعصار التورنادوا :
هو في الاساس رباني ومن غضب الله الجبار
ومن شدته انه اذا مر على نهر شقه نصفين ورفع قاعه الطيني وذر ترابه في الهواء
وكذلك يقتلع البنايات والبيوت والاشجار ومن ثم رميها في مكان بعيد مهما كانت ثقيلة وعظيمة
ويحمل الجسور والقناطر والخزانات الكبيرة ويدور بها وكانها عود ثقاب ويلفها كالمروحة من شدة قوته العنيفة
ويحمل معه الحيوان والانسان الى عنان السماء ثم يلفظه خارج الغلاف الجوي او الكرة الارضية وكانها عملية تفريغ نحو الفضاء الخارجي
مما يتسبب بخسائر مادية جسيمة وهائلة تقدر بتريليونات الدولارات
وهذا غيظ من فيض وهذا بعض ما يجري في امريكا
ان الذين كذبوا باياتنا واستكبروا عنها لا تفتح لهم ابواب السماء ولا يدخلون الجنة حتى يلج الجمل في سم الخياط ...
اوكل الله جل في علاه بكل شئ ملكا :
فهناك ملك الجبال وملك البحار وملك السحاب وملك الرياح وباستطاعته ان يامرها بما يريد
ان زلزلوا او احرقوا او دمروا او حطموا او اغرقوا
فينتقم الله ممن يشاء ولا يستطيع اي مخلوق في هذا الكون منع قضاءه جل وعلا
ويقال ان صوت الرعد حسبما ورد في الاثر
انه صوت الملك الذي يزجر به السحاب ويسوقه حيث يشاء بامر الله عز وجل ... والله اعلم
قال تعالى ( وما تاتيهم من آية من آيات ربهم الا كانوا عنها معرضين )
وقال تعالى ( فأرسلنا عليهم الطوفان والجراد والقمل والضفادع والدم ... )
وقال تعالى ( وان يروا كسفا من السماء ساقطا يقولوا سحاب مركوم )
وقال تعالى ( فلما راوه عارضا مستقبل اوديتهم قالوا هذا عارض ممطرنا بل هو مااستعجلتم به ريح فيها عذاب اليم )
وقال تعالى ( ولو شئنا لرفعناه بها ولكنه أخلد إلى الأرض واتبع هواه فمثله كمثل الكلب إن تحمل عليه يلهث أو تتركه يلهث ذلك مثل القوم الذين كذبوا بآياتنا فاقصص القصص لعلهم يتفكرون )
وقال تعالى ( مثل الذين حملوا التوراة ثم لم يحملوها كمثل الحمار يحمل اسفارا بئس
مثل القوم الذين كذبوا بآيات الله والله لا يهدي القوم الظالمين )
وقال تعالى ( قل ياأهل الكتاب لستم على شيء حتى تقيموا التوراة والإنجيل وما أنزل إليكم من ربكم وليزيدن كثيرا منهم ما أنزل إليك من ربك طغيانا وكفرا فلا تأس على القوم الكافرين )
يَـأَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ رَسُولُنَا يُبَيِّنُ لَكُمْ كَثِيراً مِّمَّا كُنتُمْ تُخْفُونَ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ وَيَعْفُواْ عَن كَثِيرٍ قَدْ جَآءَكُمْ مِّنَ اللَّهِ نُورٌ وَكِتَابٌ مُّبِينٌ يَهْدِي بِهِ اللَّهُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ رِضْوَانَهُ سُبُلَ السَّلامِ وَيُخْرِجُهُمْ مِّنِ
الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ بِإِذْنِهِ وَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَى صِراطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ
وهذا ما سيحدث لامريكا كثيرا وستدفع الثمن باهضا
كل شئ انتهى ولا يستطيعون فعل اي شئ
اللهم عليك بهم فانهم لا يعجزونك
It was so windy on this video, and it was a tornado.
Anyone catch the public indecency call? Lol
They never think it was someone that got there cloths ripped off by tornado not very good thinkers
Where is the tornado sirens
u were so lucky that this EF3 didn't go right in ur house and was a close call
My heart dropped that was scary!! OMG 😥😥😥😥😨😨😨
why would you want to tempt the finger of god
Wow very close to. Kentucky state border
Baseball in the backyard is postponed.
Public indecency during a tornado.lol
tracy belle. Maybe the tornado blew off their clothes.
Perhaps. But the tornado might have made him nervous and was just searching for a little love.
So where's the video of that?
At 10:00 your welcome. Great Camera quailty!
You don't even flinch on the lightning lol
That Dude has some ⚾️⚾️
Way down in Kokomo...
Here comes a tornado! 🌪️ Let me open the windows and front door so I can stand in front of them so I can record me and my house about to be demolished. Not a smart move. Glad you are okay 👍
Komodonado, coming soon to a theater near you.
Man u were pretty lucky.
tornadoes exist = "cLiMaTe cHaNgE"
Lightning gone crazy
That's a nice camera
The Starbucks tornado
Bruh i live 30 minutes away or less from u
You risked your life. I wouldn't do that.
Wow.
That was close.
Holy smokes!

It went right over your house!!!!!!
Great video but a really dumb thing to do! Gutsy, but not smart...lol
That was lame!! Come on
Not smart
