The clip above of the Elie tornado is amazing.   

I quite like this clip as it shows the demise of one meso (rope tornado) with the start of a new vicious looking meso.

Hi guys,

Now this is something I have been waiting a long time for. On the 15th June 1992, the Kansas region explerienced what was then the second largest outbreak of tornadoes in its history. Surprisingly, it occurred in June and what made this event unusual was that the supercells were circulating around each other if I am correct. The storms attained incredible inflow very rarely seen even by US standards and the storm structures were amazing as well. The lightning - massive! In some cases the lightning was so fierce some chasers chose to retreat somewhat.

Here are a few of the videos from the 15th June 1992 event as observed by Robert Prentice in the pre-twister days of chasing:

And of course, not sure if it has been posted yet, we have the Xenia F-5 killer tornado, Illonois. This was unsual given it was a violent tornado and lacked the condensation funnel - possibly attributing to many of the deaths.

One cannot go past the violent upper trough system that produced a high risk in the tornado alley region especially in Nebraska on the 22nd May 2004. Take a look at the way the tornado wedges out!

i have seen some of the video clips on you tube some of them are great.

Who could forget this infamous footage of the April 26 1991 Andover, Kansas tornado where the reporter and film crew met a man and his two daughters under an overpass.

Researchers have damned the footage for the loss of many lives particularly in the May 3 1999 Moore tornado where people remember this very footage and did the same. PLEASE DO NOT STOP UNDER AN OVERPASS GIVEN THE WIND TUNNEL EFFECT INCREASES THE WIND STRENGTH AND CAN SUCK PEOPLE OUT. The design of the many overpasses are also different - in this case the overpass had extra protection. Further, despite the spectacular nature of the video, the tornadic winds in this tornado were much weaker than the Moore tornado.

Hello all,

I think I find the right thread for this:

It’s not many years ago tornadoes were unheard of in Europe.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQxw21lvCz4

 May 20th a tornado/hurricane appeared in the small village of Gátér in Bács-Kiskun county (in between Kiskunfélegyhaza and Csongrád) in Hungary.

I know its not big enough and I don't really know the categories but that is def a tornado and they promise more!

[Jimmy Deguara]

Xenium,

Welcome to the forum.

I guess a tornado is a tornado and it is good that storm chasers and weather enthiasts have begun documenting tornadoes in Europe. This helps spread awareness and educate the public how to deal with the potential dangers associated with tornadoes. I am glad you have passed this link to us although I had already posted it into another thread.

Regards,

Thanks and sorry for the double post.

l've tried to seach through the threads but I didn't see it. My bad.

I'll keep reading.

Edit:

I don't know but somehow I was able to miss a whole thread. Nice pictures there as well.

That is a very good get - nice shape in that storm - and you are right: places that don't normally get tornadoes are now getting them - and stronger ones at that.
