Dodental na tornado-uitbraak loopt op naar 32

Het dodental door de storm en tornado's die afgelopen weekend de VS teisterden, is opgelopen naar 32. Weerinstituut NWS waarschuwt voor meer noodweer in Texas op zondagavond (lokale tijd).
De afgelopen dagen werden in zeven staten in het zuiden en midden van het land meer dan vijftig tornadowaarschuwingen afgegeven. Honderdduizenden mensen zaten vanwege het noodweer zonder stroom. Vooral Tennessee werd zwaar getroffen: daar kwamen vijftien mensen om het leven.

President Joe Biden riep zondag de noodtoestand uit in Arkansas, waardoor die staat federale hulpfondsen kan aanspreken. Hij sprak ook met gouverneurs van andere getroffen staten over noodhulp en zegde federale steun toe voor de wederopbouw van zwaar beschadigde gebieden.

"We kunnen niet de leemte vullen in de harten van de vele families die dit weekend naasten zijn verloren, maar we zullen er voor ze zijn bij de wederopbouw", benadrukte de president in een verklaring.

Large tornado devastates Cole, Oklahoma, claims at least two lives

At least two people have been killed after a large tornado hit Cole, Oklahoma, on April 19, 2023, amid severe weather spawning 15 tornadoes across three states.

A deadly tornado struck the town of Cole, Oklahoma, on April 19, 2023, claiming at least two lives and causing extensive damage to property. This was part of a larger outbreak of severe weather that produced at least 15 tornadoes across Oklahoma, Iowa, and Kansas, with the threat of tornadoes expected to persist into the weekend.

Oklahoma experienced the brunt of the impact on April 19, with eight tornadoes recorded. The most significant of these hit Cole, located 48 km (30 miles) south of Oklahoma City. The National Weather Service (NWS) in Norman, Oklahoma, reported a “significant tornado” at 19:58 CDT northeast of Cole, describing its motion as “erratic.”

Extreme Meteorologist Reed Timmer was one of the storm-chasers who captured footage of the tornado tearing through the town.

McClain County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the two fatalities, but Deputy Scott Gibbons warned that the death toll could rise as search and rescue efforts continue in the town of approximately 600 residents. First responders are also addressing multiple reports of people trapped inside shelters.

In addition to the loss of life and damage to homes, a building used as a wedding venue was destroyed in Cole. Debris and first responders blocked off most of the town’s roads following the tornado’s passage.

Historic EF-3 tornado sweeps through Virginia Beach, leaving a trail of destruction, Virginia

A powerful EF-3 tornado struck Virginia Beach, Virginia, on April 30, 2023, damaging 115 homes and destroying 12. This is the most powerful tornado ever to hit the city, officials said on May 1.

A powerful EF-3 tornado ripped through the city of Virginia Beach on Sunday afternoon (LT), April 30, 2023, causing significant destruction. The twister hurled mounds of debris through the air, blew roofs off homes, downed trees, overturned cars, and capsized boats, forcing city officials to declare a local state of emergency.

One person was trapped in a vehicle near Great Neck Middle School after a branch fell on their car, but no injuries have been reported. Many residents credited a cellphone warning system for helping them take shelter in time. One family escaped injuries by reacting to a weather alert that came less than a minute before the tornado hit.

The National Weather Service (NWS) conducted a damage survey for the tornado in the Great Neck area of Virginia Beach. The tornado was rated as EF-3 with an estimated peak wind of 233 km/h (145 mph), a path length of 7.24 km (4.5 miles), and a maximum path width of 320 m (350 yards).

The tornado formed over the eastern branch of Lynnhaven River in Virginia Beach and moved up River Road as an EF-1, passing by the Great Neck Recreation Center. It increased to an EF-2 intensity as it moved into the Chelsea neighborhood and continued onto Haversham Close with EF-3 intensity. In this area, several homes were shifted off their foundations, and roofs and upper walls were completely removed.

The tornado then crossed Broad Bay and the eastern portion of Bay Island, clipping Windward Shore Drive as an EF-1. It moved over First Landing State Park and into Fort Story as an EF-1, snapping trees, damaging barracks, and damaging several other buildings before moving offshore.

Multiple large and extremely dangerous tornadoes touch down in Nebraska

Several tornadoes, described as large and extremely dangerous, wreaked havoc across various parts of Nebraska on Friday, May 12, 2023, causing considerable damage, including destroying farm buildings and downing power lines. 50 Tornado Warnings were issued in the state on that day, the most in a single day since 1998.

Nebraska experienced a series of severe weather events as multiple tornadoes, some of them extremely dangerous, touched down across the state on Friday, causing significant damage.

The first tornado report came in just after 12:30 CDT near Arnold, Custer County, according to the local emergency management office and the National Weather Service. Several hours later, a second tornado was observed near Spalding, followed by another about 8 km (5 miles) south of Lindsay.

The tornado that tracked west of Spalding crossed over 20.9 km (13 miles) of rural terrain. Minor damage was observed to center pivots, trees, power poles, and vehicles. This tornado was rated as EF-1 with a max wind speed of 170 km/h (105 mph), the NWS office in Hastings reported.

A particularly large and extremely dangerous tornado was reported near Bartlett at 15:55 CDT. A tornado warning was issued for parts of Garfield and Wheeler Counties as the storm moved through the area. Just minutes later, around 16:00 CDT, another tornado was spotted near Petersburg, located in Boone County. This tornado left a trail of destruction, including damage to small farm buildings and debris scattered across Highway 32.

In southeastern Nebraska, a rope tornado was spotted near Table Rock on Saturday afternoon. The region was also pelted by baseball-sized hail as the damaging storm made its way through.

At around 17:30 CDT, North Bend was hit by another round of tornadoes. Multiple farmsteads were damaged, and power lines were downed in the area. The National Weather Service issued warnings of a “large and extremely dangerous tornado” as the storm cell continued moving northeast. At least two people were injured.

A multiple vortex tornado was also observed near Hopper which was characterized by rain-wrapping curtains, according to a National Weather Service employee. The tornado’s path was approximately 0.8 km (0.5 miles) wide as it passed east of Scribner.

This weather event had severe consequences for local farming, with a commercial cattle feedlot near Uehling suffering extensive damage and resulting in the escape of several hundred cattle. Reports of significant farmstead damage continued to pour in from near Oakland into Friday evening.

These tornadoes in Nebraska were part of a broader weather pattern that also brought tornadoes to Oklahoma and Kansas on the same day. In total, the National Weather Service’s Storm Prediction Center listed at least 34 preliminary tornado reports for Friday.

Zeker drie doden en tientallen gewonden bij doortocht tornado in Texas

Bij de doortocht van een tornado in Perryton, in het noorden van Texas, zijn zeker drie doden gevallen.

Amerikaanse media maken naast de drie dodelijke slachtoffers melding van meer dan 75 gewonden die naar het ziekenhuis moesten voor verzorging. Sommigen zouden in kritieke toestand verkeren.

In het stadje nabij de grens met Oklahoma wonen zo’n 8.500 mensen. De tornado raasde omstreeks 17 uur lokale tijd door de plaats. Een park met woonwagens werd zwaar getroffen.

Op beelden is te zien dat gebouwen zwaar vernield zijn en bomen omgewaaid. Een truck ligt op zijn zij.

Videos Capture Tornado Destruction in Louisiana

At least one tornado and a powerful line of storms tore through the Deep South on Wednesday, causing "widespread and catastrophic" damage in parts of Louisiana, local officials reported.

Slidell, a city of roughly 28,000 people and set about 30 miles from New Orleans, got walloped by the severe weather Wednesday morning, according to the Slidell Police Department (SPD).

Multiple structures, including an apartment complex, sustained extensive damage from the tornado and storms, with several getting destroyed. It was unclear as of 9 p.m. local time the extent of the destruction, due to debris and downed power lines blocking roadways, SPD Sergeant Jacob Morris told Newsweek in a phone interview.

Morris said that more than 50 people had to be rescued from the rubble of the apartment complex. He said only minor injuries had been reported and that the department had not received word of any deaths linked to the extreme weather.

Vandaag en morgen ook ENH, maar van wat ik her en der lees schijnt deze van zaterdag wat tornado's betreft toch wel een behoorlijke te zijn. Afgelopen keren was die ENH er voor de stormen zelf, deze is veel meer voor mogelijk krachtige tornado's.
