I'm pretty sure that April 3rd/4th, 1974, and April 27th, 2011, were worse outbreaks.
@CheatingExposedStories
The insight provided into the mechanisms behind tornado genesis is invaluable. From wind shear to downdrafts, every detail explained here helps us grasp the complexity of these natural phenomena. The implications for forecasting and disaster preparedness are immense. Incredible work by the researchers and producers!

This video is actually 15 years old: Naked Science Season 6 EP.14 June 11, 2009
@jennydemoe3425
Makes more sense why we're seeing this show again. Today is June 1, 2024 & the show is 15 years old. It explains what has happened this year with our weather! We just went in to La Nina & just had severe tornado outbreaks starting in April. This show is very helpful really.
@markkerlin2585
Tornadoes can happen at anytime of the year. Depends on hot and cold mixing fronts. In Colorado with a number of different climates, there has been at least one tornado in every county in the state.
@thatrandomguycommenting1261
It's funny they say super Tuesday 2008 was special because Arkansas never sees tornadoes that early in the year. When the worst tornado outbreak in Arkansas history was in January of 1999. The weather isn't changing. It's always been like this. People can just freely hear about it now. In 1999 you didn't know a tornado went through a town unless you lived in the surrounding area.

I live in Canada and in February we're in a deep freeze. One evening I was part of a live tornado stream hosted by a storm tracker in February 2024. I was surprised to see a tornado on the stream. I asked in chat if tornadoes in the southern States was normal, people in chat said yes, tornadoes in tornado alley happen all year round, which I never heard of until this year.

I live in Colorado, we used to travel up to Boulder from Colorado Springs to visit family. When we were driving on I-25 (runs North/South along the Mountains) we would see these Massive cloud formations in the Summertime and they were the biggest objects I’ve ever seen. They looked like they were 50 miles tall. Turns out, those clouds had formed over Tornado Alley. We were just viewing from a certain height and a certain distance. But the pictures I could show you, they were so beautiful. Beautiful clouds
@TheMoistdischarge
@7:35 is the best explanation I've ever seen for how tornadoes form
@alanattfield7174
Beginning to think it is more man-made than natural.
@bonniearmstrong6564
There was no mention of the tornado that happened in the 1950’s going as far north as Flint, Michigan. Nor the Ally way in Lower Michigan, that we have had to watch out for as far back as I remember, and I’m in my 80’s. There have been tornado going through Oakland county in Michigan even earlier which wiped a few communities off the map. Check out the Oxford Leader (a local newspaper) of this area for the stories.
@kawaiijohn
When was the original air date for this documentary? It has to be sometime between 08 and 10 since there's not even a mention of the 2011 super outbreak
@HouseRavensong
That bottle experiment was the best example of what happens is the best I've ever seen. Thank you!
@crooked-halo
The flipside of this is that record keeping has become much more prolific & accurate, the details we are retaining about tornadoes are much more specific, we're learning a hell of a lot of new stuff about tornadoes very quickly and paying closer attention to them. Also, and this is huge, chasing tornadoes, approaching them as a passionate hobby has increased quickly, especially since the movie "Tornado."
@RUNNOFT71
YES! The tornado videos are great!
@MrTiberus1701
So nothing about how the research, science & weather instruments getting better.
@RedRoseSeptember22
Tornadoes are possible ANY time of year, having them happen in Winter and fall isn't really that uncommon like this channel is trying to say. You only need favorable weather conditions for them to happen, yes they are most common in spring/summer but they can happen ANY time of year.

Great program

I was in the Woodridge, Illinois tornado in June 2021. That was the most scary and unexpected storm I've ever experienced. We only had a severe thunderstorm warning, no tornado watch. I got a call from my daughter saying she heard tornado sirens blaring. She lived 20 minutes away. I heard nothing. I got up and looked outside, nothing. I started getting dressed, and the power went out. I knew something was wrong. It wasn't even storming yet. I went in the hallway where my neighbors were, and they all said there was a tornado headed our way. I heard a loud roar that sounded like a freight train. After the tornado passed, I was too afraid to see if my car had damage, so I waited until morning. What I seen was unlike anything I've ever seen. 8 blocks from my house had a path of severe destruction. EF3 touched down at 11: 25 pm. Ppl literally were sucked out of their houses because they were asleep and unaware. SCARY. 😱
