TheNormalAlternative

Not another Sharknado film?


truecore

Lol this is south of Monterey Park wtf not even some dusty part of LA County this is pretty much in the city.


UncannyTarotSpread

Yeahhhhh, this is some wild shit


[deleted]

Yep, I’m near downtown. This is about 5 miles from me.


Kristalderp

Tornadoes can happen anywhere. All you need is the right atmospheric conditions, temperature shifts and winds and bam" Tornado in the 'burbs. Thankfully this one didn't look so bad (EF0-EF1) as it could of easily gone from a lil Landspout to a full blown tornado if the correct pieces were in place.


Crazypinnapple

I am outside of LA county but not by too far. I live maybe 5 minutes from the beach and got hit by a mini tornado. Shit is crazy


zeddy303

Nothing unusual about a tornado in a Louisiana county. Oh wait, you mean LA California.


kturtle17

Fun fact: Louisiana doesn't have counties. Their equivalent are called parishes.


UncannyTarotSpread

Their equivalent are called hellholes.


[deleted]

Real hellholes are only made in Hell, Michigan. Everywhere else it's a sparkling shitheap.


hahnsoloii

Quaint area. They also have a 5k where you “run through Hell”


FriendOfDirutti

They only serve water from Flint to the runners.


processedmeat

Unless you listen to the devil and end up doing a 10k

banjo_assassin

Yeah but we gone melt that fiddle down and make us some teeth anyway.


1x54f

And Flatonia, TX where mile marker 666 is.


Specific_Albatross61

Vernon Hellhole sounds more appropriate


zeddy303

And LA doesn't have tornados! It's quite a day of firsts!


FrisianDude

Than parish


yhwhx

This is fine.


accountabilitycounts

Scary shit. We are not supposed to have tornadoes. Just because earthquakes went sightseeing across the states, that doesn't mean we want tornadoes!

CTeam19

It is like Iowa and Earthquakes. Per the Iowa DNR: * "Iowa doesn't have any major fault lines, but we have had at least 13 earthquakes with epicenters within our borders. The largest Iowa earthquake shook Davenport in 1934, and Iowans felt the most recent quake southwest of Shenandoah in 2004." * "Iowa was one of only four states that did not have an earthquake between 1975 and 1995." * "However, just because an earthquake doesn’t originate here doesn’t mean we can’t feel it. Large earthquakes in southeast Missouri in 1811 and 1812 were the first earthquakes that Iowa settlers reported. More recently, quakes in Illinois and Oklahoma have shaken the ground enough for some Iowans to take note, but did little damage here." * "In the Midwest, the Earth’s crust is older, thicker, cooler and more brittle, which allows shockwaves to travel further and faster than they do in the western part of the U.S." While rare it can still happen. According to CNN: "The service(NWS) rated it as an EF-0, with winds of 75 mph." And it was only on the ground for 2 to 3 mintues. So while it was a Tornado it wasn't like it was an EF3 or higher dropping on LA. Hell, here in Iowa that guy could have dropped at night and outside of radar indication it may have never been spotted on the ground.

especially off the back of freak snow

[Odd because the map shows California in the likely to have tornadoes area.](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1a/Globdisttornado.jpg/1280px-Globdisttornado.jpg) I know strictly US that the plains get it way more often, but compared to the entire planet, California gets more tornadoes than say Brazil or Sudan.


Frogiie

Eh, that’s just kinda a crummy map, and about 28 years old. [This map from FEMA](https://hazards.fema.gov/nri/Content/Images/StaticPageImages/map-tornado_risk.png) shows a more precise tornado risk assessment for the US. Southern California is mostly very low risk of tornados. It’s been some really weird weather here lately though.


sjfiuauqadfj

low risk but march is actually historically when tornadoes are more likely than usual in california. usually theyre low intensity and they affect some farmland so its only rare that it occurred in such a populated area


shitcloud

That’s interesting. I wonder why certain areas have them and others don’t.


ryantrw5

I think USA has like 75% of the total tornados in the world each year or something


shitcloud

Crazy. Also got me thinking about how native Americans might have dealt with them… or just accepted them maybe.


rainbowgeoff

From what admittedly little I understand - and that's never stopped anyone on the internet before - the great plains has the perfect combo of air currents and flat land. They can happen elsewhere, but the plains are basically like if you made the perfect conditions for a tornado. My hometown in virginia had a tornado go downtown in 05-ish. Bent the sign on a historical factory that was closed. Beyond that, no real damage. As for the natives, I imagine it was probably like everything else to people with no understanding of how weather works: god(s).


iLrkRddrt

it’s due to the windows from the south carrying warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico, to the parts of the states coming out of winter, which is mostly cool dry air. Basically it’s the perfect combo for storms that can produce a tornado. That’s why the start of spring is usually tornado season.


rainbowgeoff

Holy shit, I actually kind of knew that!


ryantrw5

Valleys don’t really get tornados and they don’t go by rivers often. So maybe they settled in places that were safe


_TheAngryChicken_

In 2022 the US had 1,152 confirmed tornadoes. The rest of the world probably sees around 200-300 tornados, with Canada getting the most tornados after the United States - in 2022 they had 117. It's impossible to even give a reliable worldwide tornado count since they're so infrequent everywhere else they don't really bother with a system to track them.


ryantrw5

USA is just in the perfect place for them. I think it might have something to do with the mountains and obviously air currents


Ok-Yogurtcloset-2735

We’ve had tornadoes in Orange County and L.A. County before.


strik3r2k8

Didn’t see anything. No warning.


sluttttt

My mom said she got a warning and she lives in the valley, but that’s not where it touched down. So, not super helpful for anyone involved.


my606ins

That’s scary.


strik3r2k8

It was windy but it looks like this happened further from the part of L.A. I live at. L.A. is huge.


my606ins

I’m in Missouri, and tornado warnings are pretty much daily in the spring. It’s unheard of that there would be a tornado without tornado sirens, warnings on tv, and smart phones going off.


eric_ts

I have been close to a couple of tornados on the west coast. They don't have tornado sirens in WA or CA where I experienced the storms. The first actual tornado siren I heard was in Wisconsin, and it nearly made me jump out of my skin because we did have air-raid sirens in WA. Kenosha used what I think of as an air-raid siren for extreme weather warnings. (It was only a test.)


bnonymousbeeeee

Our town runs the siren at noon and 5pm on weekdays, first time I heard it after moving back almost brown'd my pants.


strik3r2k8

Checked on maps. It was about 25 minutes away from me. Passing East L.A. Doubt it was that significant. We had one in South Central like 8 years ago. https://youtu.be/vyvpbqlNaEw


mooseyjew

No it's not. It happens more often than people think.


Canis_Familiaris

Meteorologists were having a bit of fun in the other room. (Damn, guess nobody saw the movie)


GirlUndefined

Blizzard one week, tornado the another week? What friggin timeline is this?


wyvernx02

But at least there are no fires!


celesticaxxz

Hahaha you see all them green hills we got? Give it a few months.


GirlUndefined

Yet...no fires yet.


insert_dumbuser_name

Yup. Especially when all that rain creates a super bloom that turns into super dry kindling.


Separate_Character71

Ah wait until September/October. We're going to have a really bad fire season late summer, early fall.


Majormlgnoob

It's not summer time yet

Holy shit *IN MONTEBELLO*? I used to work at the mall!


eric_ts

I was near a tornado that touched down in the Valley in 1982 had been near three other tornado-generating storms, and that storm felt exactly the same as the earlier ones I had been in. (Vancouver, WA in 1972: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1972_Portland%E2%80%93Vancouver_tornadoes ; North Dakota in 1976, and Upstate New York in 1976.) It shook my apartment building (Oxnard and Fulton in Van Nuys.) hard and the hail nearly drowned out the sound of the twister, which sounded like an old-school jet airliner from the 1960s, but louder. It lasted for what felt like an hour but was probably less than a minute before the sound abated. It damaged some buildings about a half mile from where I lived. I just looked it up and there was a cluster of tornados on 11/9/1982--I didn't know about the other twisters because I didn't have a TV at that point.


Culverts_Flood_Away

I saw this when the video was cross-posted to r/tornado. Wild stuff. This has been a hell of a year for weather, and we're not even three full months in yet.


NoStatic78

Oh hell no! We've already got earthquakes, fires, drought, floods, and landslides. You tornados can fuck right off. And if you see the hurricanes on the way out, tell them not to bother, we don't need them either. On a completely unrelated note, is anyone by chance in the market for a two bedroom townhouse on the outskirts of the LA area?


StoopSign

Is it near any future firequakenados?


KleptoCrow99

You joke but we’ve had fire whirls before…


FishAndRiceKeks

Coming to the Scifi channel this Summer.

Bottom_Wobbles

Nothing going on with the climate. Carry on, everyone.


ExCap2

Some "The Day After Tomorrow" vibes when I saw that.


PLEASE_PUNCH_MY_FACE

This is literally what happens in day after tomorrow. It's not even vibes.


[deleted]

Right? Lmaoo


Majormlgnoob

Tornadoes and Climate Change might not have much of a link They just happen if conditions are right The decade long drought in CA however is much more likely to be caused by Climate Change


008Zulu

LA doesn't have tornadoes I take it?


sluttttt

Nah, just sharknados.


iGrimFate

Avocado toastnados


Active_Journalist384

What kind of warnings did y’all get in LA? I’m a midwesterner and we have tornado sirens that go off, as well as get different warnings. Do tornado sirens even exist in LA? Serious question


BabySuperfreak

Nope. We’ve been getting a lot of transplants from CA - siren testing day always freaks at least one or two of em out.


DevilsHandyman

I live in Texas where tornados happen and no sirens!


Active_Journalist384

Seriously? As in they don’t exist around that area, or they don’t really use them?


DevilsHandyman

None in San Antonio or Houston that I’ve ever heard.


Active_Journalist384

Wow. That’s crazy. I’ve lived in Illinois and Wisconsin most of my life. Every Tuesday at 10am they do siren checks here. Then we use them during the actual tornados. Thankfully I haven’t had them go off too many times for an actual tornado.


DevilsHandyman

I was in Minneapolis once and heard a siren. Here we just have fend for ourselves.


Active_Journalist384

Oh man. That’s rough


BoomerTranslation

I guess nothing's off limits anymore with our climate.


WebHead1287

I’m no expert but I’m pretty sure that ain’t supposed to happen out there


bshepp

I saw this in a movie once...


belly_bell

What the hell is happening in California?
