A well anticipated tornado outbreak occurred on March 31, 2023. I saw two huge tornadoes in southeastern Iowa, from Hedrick to Keota. Both tornadoes were capable of catastrophic damage but did not kill anyone.
These tornadoes were part of the third largest tornado outbreak on record.

literally looks like the final boss tornado from Twister
You might have been on the complete opposite side of the one that I was chasing. I was NE of the Keota tornado when it formed.
GORGEOUS. The power is evident and explosive here.
Iowa is amazing!
The rest of the world seems to see the screaming and shouting as being an american thing. So nice to have quiet respect instead of grandstanding, childish yelling and repetition. Awesome.
Great footage…..subscribed…. be careful.
I remember as a kid waking up and opening the door and a classic V shaped tornado was coming right at me! It was so big it looked like a big boiling cloud on the ground!
5yr old me was thinking "Geez, I just want to play some Donkey Kong before school!

Iowa smells like a pig farm!!!!
The most interesting things about Tornadoes, they DO NOT care what race, creed, personal philosophy, etc. They Will Kill You and Have No Feelings About it.

Great professional type of tornado tracking/chasing videos……no yelling, no swearing or hoots and hollars. Well done with this Iowa tornado video! New subscriber too.
Sheez scary monsters๐ข๐ฎ…ef9
Wicked
The one word I'd choose to describe the entirety of this would be "stark". Even "starkest" would work ๐ Around 5-6 minutes it's amazing, the falloff of wind energy at such a small distance from the mass……. those power lines are barely moving, and the treeline appears pretty still. Really appreciate the quality/resolution.
it's really nice not hearing "IT'S SO VIOLENT' 500 times.

๐ฎ greetings from coastal Mississippi. Enjoyed your video. Very well done. I been in a couple , when the siren sounds, take cover. Stay safe sir. Mississippi welcomes you anytime๐
They didnt rate this an EF5? Is it because they couldn't rate damage?
Mean sumnabish
I could have been at a BAR B.Q.!!!!!!!!!ยก
That torรฑado had the end of times written all over it, the featUres in the clouds self exPlainatory!! Devil and Jesus Christ . Tape 4:00.
Beatiful
I just could not comprehend being that close to something that massive ๐ฒ๐ฒ The noise would be deafening. I am watching this from Australia and am glad to say that we dont get tornadoes here. Please take care out there, and thanks for the amazing video ๐๐
What gets me about storm chasers, they go out to get the film of the tornado and the adrenaline pump from it, while they could be actually warning people when they see the trick of the tornado where it's going
Almost 1 million views! You're getting too famous to bum a ride off of now…
Great vid! Storm season is soon upon us, and I need to chase Iowa one of these years
Next video don't have a bright window behind you……..
i really like that no one is screaming and yelling "oh my god" 500 times. great capture and awe inspiring footage. nothing like the sound and sheer power of nature to put us in our place.
Glad nobody got hurt. I've lived in central Oklahoma all my life and the worst tornado I've seen was the EF5 that came through in 2013. I was out at my parents and they live in between Stroud and Cushing, one of the many known tornado towns. The tunnel went right over us but didn't touch ground until it got closer to 33 by Drumright. Growin up around 'em, I like to watch. Thanks for sharin this.
Nice footage!
Wowza! This reminded me of 4/21/1967, when the South and East sides of Chicago and suburbs were hit with 7 F-5's, known as the Oak Lawn Tornado. My best friend was killed in the Oak Lawn roller rink with his skating partner. Too many other deaths and injuries as well. Turning 71 this April and still am freaked out with Illinois storms. Bless you and stay safe.
I LOVE THE VIDOE โค๐
Wow I would be terrified if seen that thing i don't know how far u are from it but I know I would be going the other direction
back in mid 60s as a wee child at chanute afb i remember out back playing one day seeing this exact blackness ๐ฎ
Man that looks ominous.
Thanks 4 filmin!!!
Some really beautiful footage…
