  • a hurricane is the name given to a tropical cyclone which is located above equator and also goes by the names typhoon, tropical storm, monsoon or just plain 'cyclone' depending on size and strength. A Hurricane IS ALWAYS a cyclone but a cyclone IS NOT always a hurricane. also supercells are a type of cyclonic system called a mesocyclone.

  • Hurricane=Atlantic basin.Cyclone=Pacific basin below the equator and Typhoon=Pacific basin north of the equator all of these are the same just different names in different region's and tornado's can be found within all three.

  • A baby compared to the f4's and 5's here in the U.S.I've been through 6 major hurricanes and have had a tornado pull my car sideways at 1:00 a.m.besides seeing 2 in the daylight;fascinating weather phenomena,dangerous,scary,tant­alizing.

  • Perth and Area's to the east have been getting a few of these lately. Massive area's of tree's knocked down in swan valley 3 weeks ago, from toodyay and in a line virtually to brookton there are large area's of tree's knocked down 100's m wide by km's in length. Not good

  • Would really like to know where this is. It seems that Victoria is the state most affected by cyclones, only every now and then, nothing like Tornado valley in USA. I remember a few years ago, on second thoughts more than 5 years ago, a cyclone ripped through North Dandenong and Noble Park (suburban areas of Melbourne). My parents had to have to get a new garage door because of it.

  • @3690Anmari Oops, tornado alley, not valley ( had a few wines in me at the time of writing, plus i have the hiccups. Is that like having a tornado in your tummy?)

  • @3690Anmari Its in Dunoon Australia

  • @3690Anmari There's never been a cyclone in Victoria..ever :|

    It was most likely a storm.

  • @aaalexishhh tell that to my parents who had to get their garage door replaced after a small one went through their area.

  • @3690Anmari

    ...umm

    Yeah storms can do that mate, i suggest you educate yourself on what a cyclone actually is.

  • @aaalexishhh "Tornadoes occur more commonly in Victoria than most people would expect. The Bureau of Meteorology's severe thunderstorm database for Victoria has 160 tornado reports dating from 1918. It is most likely that many tornadoes have gone unsighted or unreported. Tornadoes range in size from a few tens of metres across, up to around one kilometre in diameter. Because of this, damage is normally restricted to a small area, but is very intense."

  • @3690Anmari

    Errr..you said cyclones

    A cyclone is not a tornado?

    kthanks.

  • @aaalexishhh well excuse me for making a simple mistake. Looking at my initial post i think it is obvious that it was a simple mistake. And you felt the need to take me to task for it. Get a life. kthanks, bye.

  • @3690Anmari i'm just saying it might have been misleading to people if your saying Victoria is even able to have cyclones.

  • Nice place to park at..."Us,electcuted!?! Naaaaa" XD

  • THERE WAS 2! i think

  • Jimmy, is this footage available on any kind of cd or dvd? Thanks

  • @naderchaser check his website, just google jimmy deguara

  • wow it had twins there for a minute, amazing stuff!

  • dude you should be in your basement

  • @MasterPokemon2000 tell jimmy that

  • OH MY GOD is the sheet of metal ALRIGHT?

  • Wow, and another thing. Way too close mate. I'd need new underwear after that power substation went up, and I like storms :)

  • They get a lot of tornadoes in au, it's just that most areas are very sparsely populated so they may not get reported.

    You can tell this is a south hemisphere storm since the cloud of debris is rotating in the CLOCKWISE direction. Very strong tornado also (you can see the multiple vortex structure)

  • @Zoomer30 Tornadoes dont always turn the direction based on the hemisphere.

  • @ScepticVideos - actually they do. Google "Coriolis Effect"

  • @ScepticVideos You are 100% right. If it's in the northern hemisphere and spinning clockwise, it's anti-cyclonic. If it's in the southern hemisphere and spinning counter-clockwise it's cyclonic. But it only happens 0.5% of the time.

  • Your tornado is spinng the wrong way ;-)

  • umm, this looks like this in america!

  • @SamanthaR66 its not

  • @SamanthaR66 pretty sure u dont have gum trees in america

  • @Hartleystreet thats if the american knows what a gum tree is...

  • @Hartleystreet - actually, there are plenty of eucalypts growing in California, but they look slightly different from most of our gum trees.

  • @JBofBrisbane This is Australia!! Gosh...

  • @SamanthaR66 Theres gum trees everywhere

  • @MegaGayboi69 Multi vortex is all that is. Btw, why that username?

  • @iflavhs You are an ignorant person if you really believe that. Australia gets hundred of tornadoes per year. For goodness sake, enlighten yourself by going to the Bureau of Meteorology's website and typing in "tornado" into their search engine.

  • @iflavhs Since most areas of Australia are uninhabited it's hard to know exactly how many we get, however, based on spatial and temporal frequency of the ones that ARE recorded, it can easily be extrapolated that we get hundreds of them per year. In fact Australia gets the most tornadoes per year after the United States. I wish to God people would enlighten themselves (such as via the Bureau of Meteorology's website) before spouting out nonsense about the rarity of Australian tornadoes.

  • iflavhs ur a fuckhead, dont comment on shit u dont know anything about u retard

  • @AussieStorms I agree he is a dumb kid

  • ppl who think this is a cyclone or hurricane r very wrong, hurricanes/cyclones bring a lot of rain also

  • Maybe I should stick to talking to the guys posting here,( most of ya )! Tornados happen EVERYWHERE. Thank you good people from OZ for showing this CLEAR MULTI- VORTEX ( and "seemingly" mild ) TORNADO. Not "cyclone", not "typhoon", not "hurricane". JUST A DAMN TORNADO. I'm not a chaser ( I wish ), but I have seen Two ( minor ) with my own eyes as a child in Georgia (USA).

  • @iflavhs we have a couple every winter here in the South West of Western Australia and they do make the news so check your facts you retard. Australia has dozens of Tornados every year but due to the sparce population many go undocumented ( not filmed ) as they hit unpopulated areas.

  • The U.S has more than a 1000 repoted tornadoes yearly

  • Damn , good looking storm :)

  • i love that how the thing shorts out the power lines :)

  • best footage of a tornado in aus ive ever seen!!! good job

  • NO promopal - wrong! Tornadoes DO, DO, DO, Do accur in australia - waht the hell do u think this video is! lol

    tornadoes are completeley different to hurricanes/cyclones/typhones (which are the same but just occur in different parts of the world)

    And hurricanes are not bigger than cyclones or typhons.

  • 0:05 Oh my gosh!!!

  • Comment removed

  • i was in the pocono mts USA visiting and right like not far away a tornado hit on 31 july 2009 it was insane! I was so scared but it didnt get too close... i was in a hotel and we all saw the lights dim and heard it nearby... it hit an animal shelter:( animals survived, shelter rebuilt next day.

  • a LITTLE fucking close :o

  • i have been in earthqakes but never ever in my life saw a tornado i never been in a floud

    i am only 10 turning 11 in may

  • Effin awesome and so rare to get one in oz on film

  • We get over 50 tornadoes a year in aus

  • damn, i live in australia and i didnt know that, i only knew that we got one once in WA, this is awesome to c a tornado on video from aus, thanks for uploading

  • When nature is violent, its just plain beautiful.

  • Tornadoes are called anticyclones when they rotate clockwise?

  • that's high pressure. tornadoes are just called tornadoes whichever way they rotate.

  • @weatherstorms copletely wrong. A Tornado is a Tornado, which ever way it rotates. A high pressure system is an anticyclone

  • Badass! I storm chase in Texas, and I'd love to come down to Australia to see stuff like this! I'm loving the clockwise rotation!

  • I would find myself sitting in a pool of my very own urine. I'm from Kansas - I see something like this and I haul extreme ass. Thanks for the excellent vid - got the heart rate up a bit.

  • Just to clarify for everyone... Tornadoes occur in Australia and the US - and are the same thing. Its just they tend to be bigger and more frequent in America. Tornadoes do occur in Australia. Now ... Tornadoes are completely separate /different to Cyclones/Hurricanes/Typhoons. Cyclones and Hurricanes, and Typhoons, are the same thing, but just go by different names. The USA call these storm systems Hurricanes, and in Australia we call them Cyclones.

  • so is it a "thunderstorm? in both if there's alot of thunder?

    but seriously. your right. i so sick of name confusion why can't we all just call them the same thing "blood big windy storms"?

  • only acouple of weeks ago we had a storm go through Coomera ( gold Coast) .

    was up there at Dreamworld. lots of us saw a very large cloud rotation. had moderate hail. strangely the storm seem to hit 3 times like it was circling around on us. another in june pasted from the west, over Nerang out over mermaid beach, also with a clear protuding rotation at the head of the stormfront. getting more likely every year it seems.

  • great vid i live in lismore like 5mins away and we could see it from where we work..crazy day and storm with heaps of damage all around.

  • Comment removed

  • haha he had fucking conjoined twins going there

  • ballsy man, id do that shit for a living if i could afford it lol

  • The only difference between this tornado (duh, of course it's a tornado) and tornadoes we get in North America is....that it is spinning clockwise. It is very rare for that to happen in North America.

  • Even the dumbest storm chasers ever, know better then to be that close.

  • awesome video

  • What an idiot,he shouldn't be that close!But did you see that electric?AWESOME!!!

  • Are these people serious? Yes, we have TOR-NAD-OS in Australia. Hurricanes are what we call cyclones!

  • They r inexperienced in the topici guess

  • If you go to Australian Severe Weather association website it has the video and the story of what happened. I can also assure you we get lot's of tornadoes in Australia only India and the US get more in numbers and only Uk and US more per capita. This is a tornado just like the US gets. Don't believe me go to ASWA and weatherzone for details.

  • I agree with you. I've seen many pictures of tornadoes that were taken in Australia. You are right.

  • they was way to close for me

    great footage!!!!!!!

  • Lol. no they are not.

  • i was replying to UltraArrow he said we called tornadoes cyclones

    sorry

  • it is so a tornado, in the U.S you have hurricanes we call them cyclones in aisa they call them typhoons i hope that is clear....A TORNADO IS A TORNADO WHEREVER YOU ARE except in the ocean they are water spouts

  • That was an excellent example of a multiple vortext tornado. Those can be the most destructive, actually.

  • Its a tornado dumbass, and im from Aus also.

  • whoa u are dumb.....tornados and cyclones are completely different, idoit....and im from aus as well. why dont u go learn your facts before posting something stupid like that...tornado, cyclones and hurricanes are all different from each other.

  • that's correct. im glad someone has got a brain cell. TORNADOES do not exist in australia. they only happen in the northern hemisphere (like USA) , and they move anti clockwise. CYCLONES only happen in the southern hemisphere (like australia) and they move clockwise. HURRICANES are the biggest (would cover a good part of a state) and can last much longer than tornadoes or cyclones.

  • @promopal It is clear that you do not have a brain cell inside your head. Tornados do exist in Australia I have expereienced 2 myslef here in the South West of Western Australia.Tornados have also been documented in Southern hemisphere locations such as central Brazil. Hurricanes not bigger than cyclones,Hurricanes may cover a whole state, that's only because your states are so small. USA's largest state would fit in W.A at least 8 times .

  • @halosniper09 Geez some people sure are uneducated. A cyclone is the same thing as a hurricane. A tornadoe is much smaller, though often has much stronger winds. And yes, Australia DOES get them!

  • R3demp7tion u are right we don't get tornadoes in australia they mostly happen in america.

  • Wow, I did not know we had tornados in Australia either but heard just now on the news that there was one today in South Australia. This now adds to the list of record temperatures this summer, devastating bushfires some of which are still burning an earthquake in the south of the country. The sth and east of Australia has been in drought for the last ten years. The north is currently has floods and they just had a cyclone. The global weather is becoming more intense.

  • Tornadoes actually occur in Austalia every year. Most of them don't make the news because the majority of them don't hit any houses or kill people. Plus the number of them is lower than what the USA gets. I'm a storm chaser, and have seen quite a number of tornado pictures that were taken in Australia through out the years. Earthquakes have nothing to do with weather either. Global Warming will not cause earthquakes. It would only effect the weather.

  • 0:05 SICK!

  • A beautiful display of multi-vortex action. And also clockwise circulation, a spectacle for us North American viewers.

    Where in Aus is this?

  • we can get them, thought they are rare

  • i thought there were not suppose to be any tornadoes in the Southern Hemisphere.

  • i remember the storm it was big! so was the hail one just before it and the hail one that hit brisbane on 16/11/08 i saw all 3 and they all had enough power to create real damage! i didn't see the twister though. but i know a few who did and i tell you what they were scared! really scared! super scared! and a few didn't return to school for like 2 weeks after the storm.

  • what happend when the eltrical post went blue

    and it shocked what made that happen?

  • well in a tornado winds can b up to 400 km but m yguess are 150 can rip a transfusion out once one is pulled out they all blow up

  • yere freakey

  • oh for sure mate but it sucks theres only 20 tornados recorded in australia each year i always wanted to see one

  • yere ive always wanted to see one but it would leav us homeless

  • It was actually debri hitting the wires

    And why would it leave u homeless?

    just make sure after u see the tornado u return home

  • because tornados a so power full it"s knot funny it wil ripe your house to shreds

  • No u said if you see a tornado you go homeless.

    not exactly

  • oh sorry mate but realy they would leave y ou homles if they rip through yuor hous like one did to our old house

  • Move to the great plains of the United States! We average 1000 tornadoes a year!

  • wow tornados in auz?

    I never knew we had tornados O.0

  • yeah same!!!

  • Tornados actually happen all over the world. It is just that something like 90% of them, I think, occur in the tornado alley in USA.

  • well I know that but I just didnt know we had enough tornados in auz to warrant storm chasing :)

  • jimmy? brizzy? tassie?

  • This is the Dunoon tornado - Northern NSW near Casino.

  • I Live in tassie and we get some windy wheather. once there was a hurricane warning

  • Go Australia!

    I have never been in a tornado,living in Brizzy....

    Cant wait for one though :P

  • good work jimmy, went for a wander through dunoon after the fact, nice catch

  • Hi guys, My name is Jimmy Deguara and I was the one lucky or unlucky enough to get onto this tornado and capture this video! It was incredible with multi-vorticies coming around the main circulation. It was close with the tornado no more distant than 100 metres from my vehicle where the video was being taken.

    Enjoy - certainly a once in a life time experience.

  • Ahh hey jimmy. like all your stuff. i thought your youtube account went extinct! Can you get more videos on your account please?

    Hope you dont mind me sharing this video.

    Cheers

  • holy crap! they really do spin the other directioN!!! this one is going clockwise... US twisters spin counter-clock

  • i dident no that tornados happen here yes cant wait and now i can save mony by not going to the us

  • some of the best footage out there.

  • Crazy tornado!Close call with those powerlines/generators blow up and there is a multi-vortex tornado!I seen it form two then into one!The wind is so crazy!

  • Are you from Saskatchewan?

  • No im not

  • who the fuck is that guy?

    lol
