this tornado almost hit my town but went north before hitting our area
Reed is an animal…wow!
Reed Timer is the best Tornado chaser Iβve ever seen great video
Timmer is an adrenaline junky. I love it. Super ballsy
Reed always delivers!
Definitely a wild-weather night for Oklahoma. Luckily we just got hail but we were glued to the TV watching all the possible lowerings.
What rating was it?
We don't know the EF rating yet. Nothing about wind speeds being measured so it's down to damage assessment to determine most likely rating. While large wedge type tornados often can hit EF4 and EF5 ratings this one is so rain wrapped you can't tell the real vortex size. Multiple vortex's just means additional vortices around the main wedge and is common in wider storms.
Considering how close the chase vehicle appears to be, I suspect the wind speeds are going to top out in the EF3 range though. Any stronger and it would have overturned the chase vehicle. That's just a guess, and I wouldn't be shocked to be wrong. Again, it's hard to tell just how close or big the actual tornado is from this video. He is so close it makes the storm look much larger than it may actually be.
Wait…this is Reed Timmer's footage, I already saw this.
Well thatβs Tornado alley for yuh
What does watching the left edge mean?
Great work once again, Dr. Timmer!

Like the GOP says, climate change is a figment of our imagination β a Trojan horse created by Democrats to entrap Republicans. Meanwhile, we are all dealing with the consequences of denialism.
@0:10, power lines clashing.
You know what's weird I came across a supposed time traveler video saying this tornado was gonna happen in Oklahoma on this day so I youtubed a tornado today and here it is. 17 mile wide tornado they said? I'm flabbergasted
Remember Reed receives energy from the tornadoes and storms, so he yells and screams because that energy is traveling through his body at high intensity. I have never seen a tornado that close but I'm sure the feeling is intense. I know this because I get energy just from storms coming through.
Best tornado video Iβve seen!!
WHOA!!!!!!
I don't know who this guy is, but from the looks of this, his balls are made of steel.
Anyone please explain me what is this
0:44 to 0:49
