[babygirl05271]

That tornado was about 18 miles from my house and wen it got close it jumped over my house

[Wtfbenice]

i am from st louis and heard him say it on tv

[StLouisStormSpotter]

If I saw a tornado really close to my house, I would say some words too. Lol.

[girlover253]

sounds like nascar

[djfog08]

I lived in a trailer about 1 mile from the houses that got destroyed, my girlfriend wanted me to come over to wait out the storm so i did and that was actually closer to the tornado, luckely her house didnt get hit, she lives about a half mile from where the homes got destroyed.

[keemez]

you kiss your mother wit that mout?

[mrstonedwolf]

haha I see my house in this video but im not gonna say which one..................

[mickey3348]

@mrstonedwolf I know wich one it is, and I am going to get you. :)

[HDiiNsaniTy]

I live in Fayette Missouri, prolly around 2 hours from Rolla.. We got that storm first... No rotation though.

[DarkmattRr]

That tornado hit fort Leonard MO, it hit 2 days b4 I moved there :( scared me

[TheThunderboltFreak]

what sirens are in this video besides the thunderbolt?

[Xoxinwulf]

We came back from Mtn. Home Arkansas on new years eve, the damn storm was with us the whole way to STL. We were at Willow Springs on 63 north, radio said a tornado 11 miles SW of Good Hope in Douglas Co., it started raining between Houston and Cabool, and around 9:40 we were in Edgar Springs and there was talk of a tornado on ft. Leonard Wood. We were close. We stopped at the BP there at 44 and 63 in Rolla by the univ. around 10 AM and tornado sirens were going off. Got some pics and vid.

[drec187]

[rmrnr8]

@drec187 not in person you haven't

[cauberallies]

@drec187

That's what she said :)

[fatbitchbarbie27]

Hey I lived in rolla for a few years and my husband is Born and raised there. Can you tell me is that a school or something behind those houses? My mother in law lives there and this seems to be the ONLY video that shows the tornado, and when I show my husband I want to give him an idea of what area I am looking at. Thanks.

[rmrnr8]

@fatbitchbarbie27 this is north of I44 between the second and third exits of Rolla. It is down Vichy road which is the road right next to Panera and Thomas Jefferson hall. Hopefully that's helpfull.

[xXScarletScreamersXx]

this tornado ran circles around our building like literally first time we've ever had to evacuate to the basement because of a tornado

[toounfazed]

did mrmovieman34 rebroadcast your video? Anyway good video...

[rmrnr8]

@toounfazed yeah he did, he also stole the fort wood tornado video.

[ForRealStudios]

This Tornado was 1 mile from where I live. I posted a Video of the weather.

[rollapowder]

as you are filming this the tornado is leveling one of my best friends house and his grandparents house. you shot the video of their houses being leveled

[MultiMegan05]

@rollapowder

That is my grandparents and my cousin! My Aunt just informed me of this video and it hitting their houses right as he was filming. Wish it was a little close tho.

[livininthevalley]

Wanted to say that you truly handled your video very well. Another person ended up giving away their footage of the Ft. Wood tornado, and I am sure it ended up hurting those who wanted to sell. If you decide to chase in the future and capture more video feel free to contact me anytime.

[rmrnr8]

@livininthevalley Thanks alot for the help and if I ever get more footage which I plan on doing I'll let you know. Thanks again.

[livininthevalley]

Glad to see you made the correction. Contact Kevin if you want a copy of the news!!

[Tabby0127]

I used to live in Rolla. It is totally mind blowing seeing that video! Thank you for uploading this video.

[Kreatyve1]

The roof was ripped off my mom's apartment building in Rolla. I don't know exactly what road she lives on, but it's one of the Private drives.

[jeffreyheese]

That was a really cool video. Thanks for posting it.  We live in Rolla, so it was cool to see.

[drsmartz]

You're shakin' bro - was it the cold or the adrenaline?

[rmrnr8]

@drsmartz it wasn't cold so it must have been the adrenaline, the wind, and i was a little nervous

[retroolschool]

@rmrnr8 A little nervous, considering how close it was and looks like an F3, id be shittin bricks man...

[crazyhick5472]

This storm hit Norman OK, around 2am and was pretty bad but no rotation.

As long as the Grotto did not cave in, things will be good.

[EngineeringPerfectly]

just hope my house on 11th st. didn't touched

[rmrnr8]

I'm pretty sure it didn't make it south of I44 so you should be ok

[booth236]

Crap thats right next door to our Fraternity house. I hear houses at the end of Vienna road (CR8030) got leveled.  :(

[rmrnr8]

One of the channels near me forgot to cut out the cursing so I said shit on TV

[TeamMeteor]

I saw this vid on the news. The cussing part was cut out though.

Good thing it only rained and cut out power for like 15 seconds here. Scary stuff.

Hope everyone that's alive is okay.

[britbrit1982]

wow.... awesome but scary video!!! i live in maryland heights and we are very fortunate that the brunt of the storm went south of us... however we did get lots of rain, wind, and uprooted trees... hope everyone is okay!

[1Legendsrule]

I live in St. Peters. We had only a few branches torn down on trees throughout our neighborhood.

[rmrnr8]

I'm really sorry to hear that. The last I heard it was only one. I hope your family is holding together. Are your other family members and you ok?

[peoplehater9119]

there were actually two deaths.... my brother in laws grandmother and cousin

[g0d13ss]

@peoplehater9119 Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that! I heard there were 3 in Rolla. How horrible.

[crystalebunch]

I was driving down 44 at that moment.. CRAZY

[pinkgreenuyellow]

Thats so intense, the one on base wasnt that incredible

[Moodingus]

llol it went right over my house!

[meguy798]

lucky you got to film the storm. I was stuck in the basement of my friend's house

[jennifer03878]

Holy crap!! I am so glad you are OK!!! Incredible video!!! Stay safe!

[5point0guy]

[MrDouglas0003]

[rmrnr8]

This was shot near Vichy road

[opensprit]

What street was this shot from?

[vampyrefyre]

We had a funnel cloud right over us in Owensville, but no touchdown thankfully. It was pretty messed up though.

[AarffVideo]

Whoever shot this video, could you call Channel 5's news desk at 314-444-5195

[BeautifulSoulgurl]

Sorry for the damage we had all the wind and bit of penny size hail in steelville mo

[rmrnr8]

No problem, I'm glad it missed you guys. People down my road weren't so lucky, it's been confirmed there was one death.
