1. This has happened to them before--in 1991!

2. I drove through Andover that day.

About an hour before that tornado hit. It was a beautiful spring day. My husband had played a golf thing with his uncle in Wichita. We didn’t find out what happened until we got back to Kansas City.

Edit to add: I think the 1991 storm was an F4 or an F5.

4. This one is obviously much smaller

Latest news I see says no reports of injuries.

[demtenjeep]

13. there are lots of injuries

no deaths reported yet

[Cracklin Charlie]

24. Good.

Even if smaller, it sure did a lot of damage. Debris flying everywhere.

8. That Troy guy is an ahole.

"I'm video taping, can you stop the narrative." "Go down stairs Stace, NOW!"
His wife was obviously worried.

23. I remember it. It's the tornado that started the dangerous myth that getting under freeway girders

is the right thing to do. It's actually one of the worst things to do -- it acts like a wind tunnel. You're much safer in a ditch. They were very lucky that the tornado just sideswiped them.

3. Yikes!

[OAITW r.2.0]

5. Intense. tfp.

[C Moon]

6. Damn. That guy's nuts! Amazing footage!

[KS Toronado]

7. Ever since that tornado hit Andover tonight

ABC/CBS/NBC have been taken over by the local stations in Wichita.
Remember the 1991 tornado real well, lived in Wichita then.

9. I have never understood why ghost hunters have to go out in the dark

and tornado chasers scream like that-

[catbyte]

21. Tornado chasers: it's adrenalin.

Not sure about ghost hunters, lol.

[AllyCat]

10. Andover again?? Jeez. So sorry.

[James48]

11. Why is he yelling?

I had to stop watching- his voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

[vercetti2021]

14. Reed has always been a yeller

As far back as 2004. He has yelled in every single tornado video. Personally I can't stand the guy.

[catbyte]

22. He's a drama queen but he's also one helluva scientist.

[vercetti2021]

26. Makes me miss Tim Samaras

He was a true scientist

[Rebl2]

25. Same

[demtenjeep]

12. yup. In basement a lot tonight

no damage to our side of the area...

1991 April 27 massive tornado destroyed much the same area

[blogslug]

15. stay safe

[Demovictory9]

18. take care... I can't imagine.

[JoanofArgh]

16. I just saw this on Twitter. Crazy!

[Demovictory9]

17. wow

[Sedona]

19. Amazing video

Happy I watched with the sound off

[Emile]

[demtenjeep]

Hope you're all OK.
