BEST Tornado Intercept in History – Spalding Nebraska, Dominator 3



This is the historic intercept of the Spalding, Nebraska tornado by Team Dominator. It’s a textbook intercept, done with the help of Jordan Hall, Sierra Lindsey, Brian Allen, ad Jaden Pappenheim. Our science continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible, and the understanding of tornadoes. Thank you to everyone who was a part of this, including our Members!!

  1. This should win an Emmy. Absolutely extraordinary historic moment. Had me in some tears of joy. So much hard work over so many years came to fruition. It's almost like nature wanted to bless you with this perfect moment. I am so grateful to you all, and feel so incresibly blessed to have watched this live and then to now watch this amazing intercept video. Congrats!!!

  2. It looks like there’s a slight secondary cone/rope vortex orbiting the central wedge. I don’t think that the orbiting vortex touched down yet, however based on the timing of the orbit and the last frame before the screen went black during the intercept, and then the frame the moment before the large tree was thrown towards the vehicle, I believe that the secondary vortex flung the tree into the central wedge, as the angle of the tree didn’t match the angle of other debris in the eye. Can someone confirm or disprove my hypothesis? This is based on mental calculations that my mind did instinctively, And I don’t know how to prove this theory. However I do believe it is worth looking into, as it’s an important variable to take into account when interpreting the data, if a secondary vortex was present.

  3. Would have been impressive if it weren't for :

    1) the multiple other road users RIGHT THERE on the road with you at the time of the intercept that you actually endangered by stopping in front of. I bet they weren't driving a dominator.

    2) the cheesy 'first intercept by a woman' comment that just makes me sneer when I hear it. Why is it important or relevant?

  5. Hats off to you guys! Only wished this existed back when the El Reno tornado was around. Like you could probably be inside the tornado for a full minute and amass ridiculous data.
