This is heartbreaking 🥲
It’s worse than decimation because that literally means loss of 10%. For all those in the path of this tornado the destruction is 100%. I am very far away so all I can do is offer my prayers and condolences. I hope you will be ok and find some peace in the midst of this chaos. With love.
if they don't like tornadoes, they should move
They didn’t say ‘people in the path of the tornado decimated’ though, that’s how you’ve interpreted it for no apparent reason.
If anything the title indicates greenfield was decimated, and that’s the right adjective in this case, especially seeing as the definition they intended is to ‘kill, destroy, or remove a large proportion of.’
Yours was the secondary definition, which is used in historical situations, which is to ‘kill one in every ten [people]’
Don’t know why I wasted my time writing this, it just annoys me a little how everyone tries to act clever by ‘correcting’ people (while being incorrect) and also making everything sound much worse when they don’t need to. Decimated was correct and it sounds harsh enough as it is. What would you prefer; SUPER KILLER TORNADO SHREDS WHOLE TOWN LEAVING THE SURVIVORS TRAUMATISED?
@@frankmacleod2565 Move where? All 50 states have natural disasters, so they'd just be trading tornadoes for earthquakes, volcanoes, or hurricanes.
My prayers goes out to everyone affected by this storm 🙏
*prayers to all my fellow Americans out there struggling right now* never give up
*it takes us to push through the darkest of nights, to see the brightest tomorrows*
That tornado was the stuff of legends.
Yeah seeing that on Reeds stream was insane never seen one with vortex roots coming out of it. It looked like an easy ef4
Oh lord, this is heartbreaking, what can i say im in UK Im sending love & Prayers for Greenfield. Bless you all. ❤💔🙏
Thank you.
I heard that some of this town was over forty miles away…carry miles and miles
May the Lord be with these people. So many huge storms this year, so much loss.
Praying for the communities to bounce back thru this tragedy
same, it must be scary to go through that
🙏 Praying. How can anyone survive that? 😢
I count we have lost at least 7 little Farm towns this Tornado season so far. They are the primary link in the distribution of the Food
Yep. Suspicious🤔
Those small farms aren't part of the food distribution. They more than likely never received subsidies.
Weather Warfare. Disaster Caplitalism. Get your Bible, Bare your cross and rest!
Dude, we're in tornado alley and this storm season is extremely active like 2011. Stop with the conspiracies already. It's a bad look and I'm tired of listening to them.
Lay off the tin foil already. It's embarrassing.
I’m so sorry for everyone 😢
My heart pained me seeing this.Also seeing these people lost all or almost everything they have is 😔😔😔😔
Lord have mercy on all of us. 😢..this is so sad.
My heart goes out to the community and all those who suffered this tragedy. It looks like a war zone.
Omg so sorry. Saw on Reed Timmer
These are the times that I wish I was a billionaire that could just go down there and help everyone.
it never ceases to amaze me the power of nature...🙏🏻
Oh my gosh 😢prayers to all the people in Greenfield God bless them all
I watched storm chaser, Brandon Copic, Live as this happend yesterday and my thoughts and prayers are with these people. So many chasers stopped and helped do search and resuce yesterday. I'm praying for all whose lives were affected by these Tornadoes.
My heart breaks for all those impacted from this terrible nightmare. God give them the strength they need to start over and heal from this devastation.
Unreal 😢
Still watching🌪️😭4yrs 😭
Prayers 🙌
I gave a thumbs up because of your coverage not because of the tragedy that took place. Prayers for everyone affected by the tornado. Yes I really pray for them. 🙏🕊️✝️♥️
Never seen anything like this
Wow
Prayers for all. Sigh....
I pray 🙏 my Dear God for these people it breaks my heart. Please I pray 🙏 stop these tornadoes. I wish I was rich I would help all of them.
Climate change is real.
WOW!! 🥺
I remember the news like 11 years ago and they was talking about how they can make it rain and manipulate the weather but they never talk about that no longer wonder why
May God strengthen their hearts,🙏🙏🙏🙏
I watched a tornado chasers video and seen there were many Vortexes maybe 4 inside one cloud mass .... I may be wrong but I believe several tornadoes did this damage all at once.... I have never seen this before! I have been watching chaser video sense my 21 year old son was killed in a tornado in Florida.... I pray for all who were involved and for the families of those❤🙏.
Just one tornado.. it was a multi-vortex tornado, which is more rare than normal tornadoes and has the power to do much more damage.
Finally new york is not that bad after all perspecrive is everything in life
I wonder if the Gov has 61 billion dollars to help these AMERICANS
Notice how when uses words like shredded and ripped his voice changes dramatically to emphasize damage and oblivion. He almost seemed like he was enjoying it.
My prayers for all those families.
God bless you all 🛐
You should learn what decimation means…. And maybe where it comes from. This is total destruction not decimation.
They are saying High EF4 Intensity !! Praying 🙏 for Greenfield Iowa!!
Right at 200mph
Cuz if it's an ef5 insurance companies have to pay and they don't want that cuz there greedy pigs
Almost as bad as those college campuses
How come the houses are made of wood? Do US need a special permit to build with concrete?
Concrete houses are environmental nightmares and they get destroyed by tornadoes too anyways.
🙏🙏🙏
Was this EF3 to EF4?
It’ll take a few days to assess all the damage and rate it. My guess is ef-4 though.
From being there personally and witnessing everything. It definitely had to be an EF4. What made it worse was it had multiple vortices, which could help an EF3 cause this kind of damage as well.
EF4, but possibly EF5. Recorded wind speeds of 205+, de-barked trees and completely slabbed homes. They'll take a look at how well-constructed the homes in the path were. If they were rated as solid, this could end up a 5. Reed Timmer's footage shows the violence, the multi-vortices and what it did to a wind turbine (they're rated for 150 MPH and the tornado bent it like it was made of cardboard).
Stop rating
@@NLaBruiser It snapped that windmill like a toothpick
Probably many stuck under the rubble
Hope they maintained their homeowners coverage. Life is the most precious possession anyway.
Unfortunately, most insurance companies will try to file some type of legalese bankruptcy to escape paying for the coverage. :=(
@@dwainmcwilliams2043 I've actually heard of a case where they tried to worm their way out of paying a tornado damage claim by saying that they didn't cover "circular winds".
@@dumbfox1036 Ah yeah. In Texas, I was denied because the hail exceeded their larger than a golf ball-size coverage or payout. The crap was the size of a softball and even knocked those plastic bumpers many off cars. After the state AG stepped and filed a class action lawsuit many of us got about 35 cents in settlements.
They also claimed I lived in a "Redline" district and should not even have coverage. Someone at the corporate office was terminated for selling me the coverage, so they say. Soon after, I left the Texas tornado alley and never looked back.
😢😢😢
I remember back in the early 2000's a guy on Art Bell show was asked about the 2012 scare and all the theories - what that means?, he simply said he didn't think anything would happen other than an increase in really bad storms, a change in intensity.. that kinda seems true from all I'm seeing. I do know that my insurance broker (not agent) had never heard of a Derecho aka straight line winds in Texas until one happened, because they where once rare in Texas and unheard of.. now look at Houston.
So... a single derecho happens in Houston. What are you trying to claim? Also the worst decades in history for tornadoes were the 1950s and 1980s.
Wow. Many comments are from crazy people. Its just a rough weather pattern. Been hot and dry for many years. Pray for these people. Many lost everything.
concerning all, the birds blow away to somewhere safe
05 2024 ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤❤ ❤❤ ❤ ❤
I’m under the impression that we do not know truly how strong tornadoes are. There is no way 80mph winds caused all that.
Looked to be an EF3 or EF4 by the damage on the video - more analysis will be needed - an EF4 is in the 160 to 200 mph range -
The debri flying around is like a sand blaster on a large scale.
U.S.A...Many houses made of wood,paper and cardboard...
This reporter is really odd. He seems to be hung up on the trees. For some reason, I'm like. What the hell is wrong with him
Cory and Brandon are both under thirty. They do not have decades of experience.
True, but they are both very good storm chasers.

A tornado hit the town
@@Jrodd45 I watched the tornado in Texas for May 17, the two of us watched from Moscow, and came to the conclusion that the Tornado is like an instrument with intelligent intelligence.
And the NWS idiots only rated this initially as an EF-3. Proving once again that rating system is an absolute joke.
Sniff... ;(

Dude if you genuinely believe this your either brain dead or you have autism
No. Weather dynamics are to sophisticated and complex for any human being to be able to control.
There's a gigantic hot ball of hydrogen and helium at the center of our solar system 109 times wider than Earth and 1.3 million Earths could fit inside it.
That's what controls Earths weather dynamics.
Why didn’t fox weather broadcast this tornado as it was happening? Over and over again while several severe storms are happening Fox chose to air pre programmed material instead of live coverage that could help save lives! You get better coverage on you tube!

@@coalblack181 And I'm pretty sure God sent a rainbow after as a promise that he wouldn't do it again.
Why they didn’t make cement houses 🏠
Because that wouldn't help. Direct hit from a EF4 or EF5 tornado will damage anything short of a nuclear bunker. Look into Mercy Hospital Joplin. That's a building built to FEMA standards to be an operational base for emergency operations. The Joplin tornado moved one of the massive towers 4 inches on its foundation. The whole building was a write off and had to be demolished. Aside from that, the active tornado zone of the US is home to 100,000,000 people. Rebuilding everything in concrete would be trillions of dollars, for the 0.001% chance you get hit in any given year. Build a tornado bunker in the center of the house when it's built, or add an underground cellar bunker in the yard if you don't have a safe space. That's a lot cheaper insurance for your family, and your stuff can be replaced.
Monolithic domes are the premier shape and material for tornado prone areas. They would actually be cheaper than what we build now.
Notice how the metal silo's were almost untouched. Cylinders are another shape that works. rectangles and squares built from sticks are the second pig of the 3. The issue is greed and refusal to adapt.
@@glahtiguy oh my God
@@artstrology Monolithic domes would NOT be cheaper than stick framing, and nobody in their right mind would want to live in a windowless bunker anyways. The average house in tornado alley will never be affected by a tornado so it doesn't make sense to fortify everything against something that will probably never happen. The best thing to do is to build with basements to take shelter in, and rebuild if the worst happens.
@@dumbfox1036 Well, first you are not a builder. Second, pennies on the dollar compared to two story stick framed, pink fuzz packed 2nd pig 2nd rate construction with a healthy life span of 80 - 100 years if that. Monolithic domes would far outlast any 2nd pig built house. but , even if looking at initial cost, would be far cheaper, although i do concede, you would be in less square feet.
Read the story of the 3 pigs. This is the entire wisdom contained in that story, and it is no accident that pigs are used instead of people, because that is what animal most developers behave like.
3rd, they do not have to be windowless,....we have glass and stuff. Most people living in domes, say it feels way better overall to be in a dome. My wife and I went through a 65 mph wind in a yurt covered with canvas, not one single thing damaged.
Squares and rectangles will always catch more wind than a circular shape. Its dumb to keep stick building.
Tornado had the right to defend itself. 👍
Found the stupid teenager. Maybe someday you'll sort out that everything isn't fodder for juvenile humor. It's called growing up.
If people are going to build homes in " Tornado Alley", they may have to use stronger materials, or a method of construction that can withstand tornadoes, because this will keep happening over and over again until we get smarter.
teepees....indians lived there for 13,000 years and lived in teepees.
"Stronger materials" also get destroyed by tornadoes
Rebuild like Pensmore, don’t abandon your home …build infrastructure…. Why would you ever build a house out of sand on the beach ? This isn’t a hard solution…. Someone had to say it and that goes for everyone everywhere in a terrorist attack basically targeted area every year… You cant just rebuild some Ryan homes bro… how hard is this to accomplish? Its not ….
This guy is really bad this newscaster is horrible
Just report the facts without saying “right” constantly
Tis the season.

Journalists should learn the definition of decimation. This is NOT decimation. It is MUCH worse.
[edit] to help those that don't want to look it up, decimation means to kill, destroy, or remove 10% of something.
Deci: 10 percent. Like decimeter.
A more appropriate word here would be 'obliterated'.
TRUMPSTER
What's the definition? A city can be decimated by bombing. So a city can't be decimated by a tornado. You people pick on such petty things. People died , were injured and lost everything they owned, and you're crying about a word.
@@user-pc3pj3bg8p This is not the appropriate place to announce that you are a Trumpster. No one here cares.
@@mizzury54 Everything you said here is irrelevant (or just plain wrong). Did YOU look up the definition?
✝️🤭✝️😆✝️☺️ Time IS Up!!!!
"DECIMATION" , Pictures of Gaza look worse and its our fault.
This comment section is just depressing. you have people dead in Iowa over devestating tornadoes, and people care more about The EF rating or useless definitions of words than the people that were affected by the disaster. Unbelievable. 😑 also people always say "If YoU dOnT lIkE tOrNaDoEs ThEn MoVe" like tornadoes Don't happen all over the globe, also not considering a lot of people can't because they don't have money. Also about the EF rating thing. the EF scale is completely irrelevant. if you wanna talk about the EF rating of a tornado, do that after praying for the victims and their families instead of saying "ThIs WaS aN EF5" without evidence and completely ignoring the people who got ripped of everything. I'm sorry, but if you think a tornado's arbitrary rating is more important than people's lives, then I can't take you seriously. Sorry for the rant, just needed to get that off my chest.

Huh?😂
Actually it’s the opposite. There hasn’t been an ef-5 tornado in over a decade. Its tornado season and a town got hit by a strong tornado. Happens every year. Well before you and I were around.
It is literally called Tornado Alley.

Hate to be that guy, but the people who wrote the title literally have no idea what 'decimation' means. People who went to college and work in journalism should know better.
