Twisters

There's video that shows a tornado that destroyed at least 8 homes in Macon County, Illinois Sunday.

A storm chaser has shared new video of the Illinois twister that nearly took his life in hopes of saving others.

2 SUV's were entwined together in a Missouri field after an EF-3 twister tore through the southern part of the state.

It was 51 Aprils ago when the worst tornado outbreak in United States history began when storms began to impact Illinois. 30 EF-4 and EF-5 twisters would eventually kill 335.

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.

We unfortunately have likely witnessed multiple tornado tragedies in Iowa today. Horrifying video shows a monster twister destroy windmills and carve a path directly through a small town.

Severe weather overnight in Missouri included a monster tornado in Sullivan that leveled several buildings to the ground as video reveals this morning.

I am not an alarmist and it's not exactly breaking news anyway that Illinois sees a lot of tornadoes every Spring. However, it might bear watching 2024 in particular as past weather patterns might indicate the Land of Lincoln might be in the danger zone for twister development.

It's really not unusual for Illinois to have a lot of tornadoes, but it's not typical for the Land of Lincoln to have more than any other state, but that's exactly what has happened in 2023.

At any time in Illinois, you might see any number of things cruising down your street. Vehicles obviously, the occasional dog walker, exercise freaks...oh and tornadoes. That's what one family saw zooming down their street recently.
