1. amazingly violent. nt

[Rex]

2. That tornado looks like it is half a mile across at times

Wonder if it is an F4 or an F5.

3. It was 1.25 miles wide at times.

They are waiting to confirm damage before officially declaring strength.

[Rex]

4. Unbelievable!

I hope they can rescue every last soul trapped by that nightmare! That has to be an F5.

6. One of the anchor people on the KFOR stream

said 2.25 miles wide! Fuck!

[Rex]

8. It got so big at times on the video, that I could not guess the scale

of the size! What a monster!

[HappyMe]

5. They said it was an F5.

Winds 200-300mph.

[Rex]

7. That makes a hurricane look sluggish by comparison.

Please please please let them be able to rescue every single person trapped by that nightmare!

[kentauros]

9. However, the devastation of this is comparable to a hurricane

due to the storm surge. Locally, Hurricane Ike wiped the coastal town of Bolivar off the map. The "good" thing about hurricanes is you have far more time to prepare or leave the path.

10. Yes very true, it looked like there was little to no warning

when this giant emerged from the skies.

11. Kicking for later!

12. Interesting how thing changes shape over the path.

For many years I assumed any pic of a tornado is what it looked like the entire time on the ground
but now we know better.
That was a monster, tho.
