Tornadoes

A time traveler from the year 2671 has a dire prediction for Missouri and Illinois about an electric tornado.

One of the most famous tornado videos in history comes from an elderly Illinois man and his video is known for all the wrong reasons. It's a textbook example of why you don't endanger yourself when a tornado approaches. He nearly videoed his own death as he and his home took a direct hit from the twister which did end up being tragic.

March 19, 1948 should have been like any typical morning in these Illinois communities. An incoming storm system had other plans. By the time most would wake that morning, a monster tornado had nearly wiped away 4 Illinois towns completely and took 60 lives.

You could tell this driver in Chicago, Illinois was in trouble the moment power flashes happened to the left side of his vehicle and debris appeared right in front of him. Video shows what happened when he drove straight through a violent tornado.

You think you've seen a lot of tornadoes in Illinois already in 2024, right? Well, you've never seen anything like what the world's worst time traveler just predicted. It's a twister set to hit in December that is powered by lightning and moves 800 mph. 1.21 Gigawatts!

A tornadic storm moves through Kentucky, but it's the rare large hail in January that's the real head scratcher.

If you're not from Missouri or Illinois, you need to understand that we do things a little differently around here. One prime example happened when some Illinois duck hunters saw a tornado nearby and decided to take selfies with it. Yes, I can prove this happened.

We see thunderstorms that sometimes produce tornadoes and many that also produce lighting. One recent Midwest thunderstorm decided to overachieve by doing both simultaneously.
