Veel schade door tornado's Oklahoma

De Amerikaanse staat Oklahoma is woensdag (lokale tijd) getroffen door meerdere tornado's.

Dat meldt perbureau AP.

Twaalf bewoners van een woonwagenkamp in het zuiden van Oklahoma City raakten gewond door rondvliegende objecten. Ook elders werden mensen geraakt door voorwerpen die door de felle windstoten werden meegesleept.

De circa 25 tornado's wierpen auto's, bomen en stroomleidingen omver. Naar schatting 10.000 huishoudens kwamen zonder stroom te zitten. De autoriteiten reageerden nuchter op het natuurgeweld. ''Ik denk dat we geluk hebben gehad'', zei een politiewoordvoerder. ''We hebben veel ergere stormen gezien in dit gebied.''

Door de zware windstoten, slagregens en hagelstenen zo groot als golfballen moest het vliegveld van Oklahoma sluiten, meldt CNN. Door de zware regenval zijn meerdere wegen in de stad overstroomd.

Ook het gebied rondom de stad, in Bridge Creek, Amber en Blanchard werd getroffen. Uit een dierenpark in Tuttle, een voorstad van Oklahoma-stad waren wilde dieren ontsnapt nadat de tornado daar schade had aangericht. De inwoners van Tuttle werden gewaarschuwd voor loslopende tijgers en beren. De dieren werden snel weer gevangen.

Derecho and tornado's hits midwest
Severe weather marched into the High Plains and Midwest Monday with powerful straight-line winds and tornadoes, leaving at least one person injured in South Dakota and causing significant damage to towns in Michigan and Illinois.

A long-lived squall line known as a derecho ripped across a swath from South Dakota to Wisconsin Monday morning, leaving widespread damage in a path that also included northern Iowa and parts of southern Minnesota. A second round of thunderstorms erupted in the afternoon and evening hours across parts of Missouri, Iowa, Illinois and Michigan, bringing several reports of tornadoes.

Reported Tornadoes Strike Iowa, Illinois, Michigan
After a brief lull following the morning storms, new thunderstorms erupted in Iowa Monday afternoon, bringing a reported tornado to Monroe County. A Hy-Vee grocery store and several other buildings were damaged by a suspected tornado in Albia, the county seat, according to WHO-TV in Des Moines.

Several tornadoes were also reported in northern Illinois during the evening hours. A suspected tornado overturned trailers near Sublette in northwest Illinois. Farther east, a likely tornado brought high-tension power lines down onto Interstate 55 south of Chicago near Coal City and Braidwood, Illinois, forcing the complete closure of that stretch of freeway. Homes were reportedly damaged in the area.

In Michigan, a reported tornado destroyed a home in Tuscola County near Millington Monday evening. Two tornadoes were reported in nearby Sanilac County around Deckerville.

Earlier in the afternoon, an EF1 tornado with estimated winds at 100 mph hit the town of Plymouth, Michigan, according to a survey crew from the National Weather Service (NWS) office in Grand Rapids. Five people were rescued from collapsed buildings; three of those rescued include a mother and two children who were trapped inside a Goodwill, WOOD-TV in Grand Rapids reports. NWS did not issue a tornado warning on that particular storm. Weather.com senior meteorologist Nick Wiltgen said the damage was from a separate cluster of storms and was not part of the derecho farther west.

"A cluster of severe thunderstorms, fueled by both low-level and upper-level jet energy, swept through the Siouxland early Monday," said weather.com meteorologist Jon Erdman.

Wind gusts as high as 122 mph struck the High Plains early Monday morning, leaving one person injured near Hayes, South Dakota, according to an NWS storm report.

The storms left major damage at Sheldon Municipal Airport just north of Sheldon, Iowa, in the same area where a 95-mph wind gust was reported. In the images at the bottom of this page, you can see several examples of the damage these storms caused at the airport.

MONSTER tornado intercepted in Manitoba, Canada!

Southwest Manitoba Tornadoes on July 27th, 2015

Massive tornado in Manitoba

Manitoba monstertornado
Professional storm chaser Greg Johnson calls Monday night's tornado in Manitoba a "monster" and among the top four that he's ever seen.

The Regina-based host of the CMT show Tornado Hunters had a front-row seat, within 100 metres, of the twister. For about 20 minutes, he watched as the tornado thundered through fields just north of Pierson, a small community in the southwest corner of Manitoba.

The twister was constantly shifting, morphing into different formations in an impressive display, Johnson said.

"At one point it was a perfect stovepipe-type tornado. At one point it was a kilometre-wide wedge tornado. And then there were a number of times where we could see upwards of five, six, maybe even seven little fingers dropping out of the bottom of it," he said.

"If you can imagine braiding someone's hair and those braids all intertwining with each other, that's what was happening with this multi-vortex stage of the tornado. It was incredible [and] the part that's so amazing is that no one was seriously injured. To me it's a bit of a shock."

The tornado brought down trees, fences, hydro poles and power lines, as well as damaged a number of farm buildings in the area. Debris was reported from Tilston north to Virden.

No injuries have been reported to date, officials with Environment Canada told reporters on Tuesday.

Witnessed 3 tornadoes

That tornado was actually the third one Johnson and his group saw. The first two were fairly short, lasting only a few seconds "then this monster touched down," he said.

"The wind intensity was so strong that there were parts of Highway 256 in the southwest part of the province that literally had the asphalt stripped off the road's surface," he said. "I'm still on an adrenalin kick right now, I'm not gonna lie."
