Footage of the April 26, 1991 Red Rock, OK tornado as it passes near Highway 77, east of I-35. At this point, it was a very intense F5 tornado with exceptionally fast motions. Our photographer is struck from the west by very strong RFD (rear flank downdraft) winds and hail as the tornado passes to the north.

  • The OU team measured winds of F5 intensity during this video. I intercepted the tornado as it crosssed I-35 and destroyed a farm house there. That damage was rated F4. The tornado became more intense east of the Interstate. Virtually all tornadoes on this outbreak day reached maturity east of the I-35 corridor as storms entered deeper surface moisture. - Martin Lisius

  • This was just one of several violent-class tornadoes that occured on April 26, 1991 in OK, KS and NE. Several are in the StormStock library.

  • another F4 tornado ...

  • I'm looking for Channel 4s -May3 99-  Tornado DVD possibly entitled 'Mays Fury'.. ..or something similar to that title, ... if anyone knows where to get one.... thanks..

  • @watcherman65 Portable doppler recorded a gust at 301mph in the Moore tornado. This particular tornado (04/26/91) has debarked trees and de-paved roads. Was officially given F4 rating, was obviously a rare and mean monster. Props to the crew who gave us this video.

  • If I live to 100, I'll never forget this one. We were east of hwy16 just approaching the the Oakville overpass with my Aunt Polly when out of no where we were heard the loudest noise I'd ever heard. The next thing I knew we were being pulled out of the car by the intense winds. As Aunt Polly flew out the window I grabbed her leg and up into the beast we went. As we flew through the air I bumped into a flower pot and what looked like a 56 Chevy. We landed on the cow and lived to tell about it

  • Exceptionally good footage for 1991. It's pretty shameful that just about every person in the country is armed with a personal video camera these days, and more often than not the best footage we can get of major tornadoes like this one is about 15 seconds of good camerawork interspersed in five minutes of bad zooming, dashboard shots, nauseating shaking, and hysterical screaming.

  • this reminds me of the f5 tornado may 3rd 1999

  • This storm reminds me a lot of the May 3rd tornado which I saw first hand.. I wonder what the wind speeds were in this storm?...

  • @WickedTornado i kinda agree with that

  • looks scary.

  • @emogirlhateful Thanks for the head's up , Emogirl. So it came from Family Guy, huh? Figures.....so many idiots in this country watch stupid shit like that, and just hang on every word. That and sitcoms. Brain dead people. It's sooo annoying, each time there is a new tornado video, some fool who think's he's being unique and funny writes: Damn nature...you scary. Mindless robots.
