The biggest of the hail was tennis ball sized. When this hits your roof -- it is very loud as you can hear from the video.

Feel free to check out our "Tornado" playlist showing video film footage of all types of tornadoes like elephant trunks, multiple-vortices, stovepipes, sidewinders and huge monster wedge tornadoes. Tornadoes from Aurora,NE ; Yazoo City, MS ; Campo,CO and Oberlin,KS for example. There's also video footage of tornado damage where buildings are blown completely off their foundations; people being rescued from collapsed buildings like in Yazoo City, MS where there was a deadly EF-4 tornado; truckers telling their near death experience when they jumped out of their semi-truck on I-80 and hide under a bridge overpass during a large, violent tornado which blew their 18-wheel truck completely off the interstate; scary , heartpounding scenes as huge wedge tornadoes are coming directly at us; sounds of large tree limbs hitting our car and antennas being blown off our roof. These videos show the raw, unedited footage of storm chasing during the most dangerous and life-threatening times. Tornadoes are rated by the damage they do based on the operational Enhanced Fujita scale (EF) ranging from EF0 to EF5. An EF0 tornado has winds b/w 65-85 mph; an EF1 tornado 86-110 mph; EF2 tornado 111-135 mph; EF3 tornado 136-165; EF4 tornado 166-200; an EF5 tornado has winds over 200 mph. Note, these winds speeds refer to a 3 second gust. As stated before, tornadoes are rated by the damage they do -- so even if you had a violent, 2 mile wide monster wedge tornado in a remote area that didn't hit anything thus doing no damage (not even crop damage) -- it would be rated an EF0 (even if the wind speeds were measured by the Doppler on Wheels -- DOW -- at 275 mph). In general, tornadoes form when you have instability (moisture) -- measured by the CAPE (Convective Available Potential Energy). Once you have adequate moisture, you look for a lifting mechanism like cold fronts or drylines that will lift or force this moisture high up into the atmosphere. Then you look for wind shear -- i.e changes in wind direction w/ height. Tornado Alley refers to the area in the U.S. b/w the Rocky & Appalachian Mountains. To me, tornado alley refers to these states: Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, N. & S. Dakota, Iowa, Missouri, E Wyoming, E Colorado, W Minnesota. Dixie Alley refers to the lower MS Valley -- i.e Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana and the upper Tennessee Valley -- i.e N Alabama & Georgia. Hoosier Alley refers to an area from S Michigan to S Indiana plus E Illinois to W Ohio.

  • I SAW A RAINBOW :D

  • @shippox3 Good eye -- it's on the right side -- thx for watching !

  • @extremeweatherfilms Sorry -- typed it wrong -- left side I meant

  • Being a Skywarn storm spotter,the Shreveport,La Weather Service is use to some of my reports like this..sad when they can hear it over the cellphone/ham radio (ham radio using ecolink),

  • @motleycruezombie I can relate to this -- on a side note - did you storm spot during the April 27th outbreak? I was in MS & filmed the killer Rose Hill tornado -- what a tragic day -- at one point I counted 7 sup's w/ the classic hook echoes on GR3 -- something I'll prob. never see again.

  • I bet.. What's the baddest weather u went through.. I've been through a Texan flood, and I was through hurricane bob, and a small piece of Andrew..

  • @neodarien the April 27th tornado outbreak this year -- outside of Rose Hill (MS) --came very close to a killer tornado -- it's on my channel if you want to see it -- thx for the question !

see all

  • Being a Skywarn storm spotter,the Shreveport,La Weather Service is use to some of my reports like this..sad when they can hear it over the cellphone/ham radio (ham radio using ecolink),

  • What sucks about hail in an area like this is you have nowhere to duck under. A bridge has saved me a few times.
