Drone video after overnight #tornado ripped through Sulphur, OK. Damage appears to be at least EF3. April 28 #2024 #drone #aerial Licensing via www.wxchasing.com
This is truly heartbreaking. I have so many memories of Sulphur with my grandparents, then later when my parents moved back. I spent many hours spinning on the barstools at Seeton's drug store sipping chocolate sodas. Praying for all of you in the community. Oklahoma folks are some of the nicest people I have ever met.
We live in Ada. Sulphur OK. is one of the closet towns to go to hang out, shopping, hiking and visiting the Cultural Center. Beautiful small town. So sad watching this video, made me cry. God bless , prayers and love. .....
Look at Moore, Greensburg, Joplin. It's the people, not the buildings, that make a community come together and make the community stronger. A feeling in a year or two this would be a community you would want to live.
Prayers for all affected with this Sulphur tornado and all those in other communities during our horrible tornado outbreak last night. From your close neighbor in Ardmore,Ok. We also had a tornado that leveled homes last night right down the road from me. We are strong and will come back bigger than ever ❤
@@rosewetzel8284, to say the least a high end EF4 tornado, possibly a low end EF5 tornado, there's no way a EF3 tornado could do this kind of damage, especially wide spread damage that it did. I'm 67 years old and I've seen many tornados and the damage they've done throughout Oklahoma, including the EF5 tornados that devastated the Moore/OKC and El Reno areas, I saw the 1981 Binger, OK F5 tornado standing on the floor of a FWA drilling rig and that tornado barely missed my drilling rig by a half mile to the northwest and it was a mile wide destroying everything in its path, I've seen the damage from multiple F3 tornados from El reno, Tulsa, Talihina, Drumright, Clinton, to Howe, Ok, but the damage in Sulphur was done by a much stronger tornado than a EF3.
Wow! Looking at RadarScope yesterday, Oklahoma was under fire with 7 tornadoes 🌪 at the same time. Our hearts go out to all those who were affected by these storms ❤
I am so sorry for these people. I live around Wichita, KS and all day yesterday we sat watching the weather, prepared to run to the basement if needed. It was a bad couple of days for the Midwest. My prayers to everyone affected by the storms.
Sending my prayers to the people of Sulphur,Oklahoma. What a devastating situation. 😭❤😭 May God be with you all as you recover from this devastation 🙏 ❤️
This level of damage looks like from an EF 3 tornado. The structures that were leveled to the pad is one sign of that and almost every building in the affected area looks either completely or moderately destroyed. My heart goes out to all of you in Sulphur, Ok. It is shocking to see such devastation.
To all in Sulphur, especially the downtown business community, our prayers and concern gush forth. So many of our favorite haunts when we visited are gone - Rusty Nail, Bromide Mountain, so many more, we pray you stay strong and rebuild. Please rebuild and re-open! We will come out in masse to support you!
Oh wow as im sooo torn from watching this drone footage!! I've driven through this great small town a few times and now it's all but gone 😢 RIP to those who lost their lives last night & hope a speedy recovery to those who were all injured!! Praying 🙏 I watched your Tornado chase live yesterday thru the night and you & your friend helped save many lives. Thank you for your heroic efforts & updating all of us the damage that had taken place in Sulphur, OK ❤
Such devastation to our neighboring states, our thoughts and prayers are with the residents of Oklahoma and Nebraska as they try to pick up their lives and go ahead, they are strong and God will help you continue your daily lives and rebuild your communities. God Bless Each of You!!
This is really sad and devastating for these people! We need to pray for all the victims in Oklahoma, Nebraska, Kansas, and Texas and Iowa where these tornadoes hit. Please pray that God will help these people start over.

I am going to guess EF-4 where the houses are leveled but the slabs are not cleared. Not sure if there was any debarking of trees. This is absolutely horrific none the less.
The Elkhorn NE tornado was a very violent, catastrophic mile wide wedge tornado with multiple vortex formation and de-barking of trees according to tornado chasers on the ground. National Weather Service gave it an EF3 rating after damage assessments. They're being extra cucky this year with EF ratings. Don't get your hopes up.
I was watching this on radar as it was happening; looks like high EF4/Low EF5 damage. I hope folks were given enough lead time. My thoughts and prayers are with these people. Thank you for the footage.
based on what i see, looks like minimum EF3, possibly EF4, as there are some maybe poorly built structures that were completely destroyed. i dont think its enough for EF5 damage.
But Mayfield was one EF-5. This town saw multiple EF-3, EF-4 in the same night. It's going to be difficult for the NWS survey crew to figure out which tornado did the damage and how strong each of them were.
Great work on the drone video, doesn't matter how well you build or how often your structure has survived bad storms, when they hit strong enough destruction happens
Privileged to have visited and worked in Sulphur over the years. A Signature Town for our state - can’t wait to see how they bounce back from this. Prayers to all in affected areas from these storms. Oklahoma Standard is a thing!
great footage, I'm an hour away and have property out by the lake there. The news stations weren't showing much of anything. Thankyou. Prayers for everyone effected.
Wow! How long did that take? It looks like that monster just camped on top of them for like 10 minutes with that much destruction. I don't see how that can be a town again. There's so little left to work with it seems. I live in the Missouri Ozarks and have had to run to my basement many times. This could happen to any of us. Try to help others when they need help.
The wife and I live in Meers, and have been to Sulphur many times to stay at the excellent Artesian hotel/casino. Seeing this is very painful, as we know so many of the damaged areas. We were going there again next month for our anniversary, but I doubt that can happen now. Maybe we can go and volunteer for cleanup or anything else that might help...
Was watching Ryan, Andy and team live as this was going down. They sounded in shock as multiple tornadoes were bearing down on same area already hit minutes earlier. Just terrible misfortune! 😢
I can't imagine how they feel: overwhelmed, helpless, hopeless and desperate. I wouldn't even have a clue where to begin or how to start. Bless them all.
Shattered lives. The scale and scope of this destruction is hard to imagine for most of us. May these people find comfort in community and get the help they need from our government to start anew.
I see many single-family dwellings that are a pile of debris on their foundations and multiple signs of bark stripping. I call EF4 on this one. There is also a lot of EF3 damage too. Outer walls and roof gone, but some inner walls intact. More or less. I haven't seen any footage of this tornado. What time did this occur? Also, it wasn't that long ago that there was another absolutely massive wedge tornado that came through this area, if not the town proper. You can see it by searching for Sulphur OK tornado. I think it was in 2016. So Sulphur seems to be sort of a frequented location for this kind of thing.
Just unbelievable! Prayers for OK. God help them all & thanking Him for no loss of life here. At least I hadn’t heard of any here, & if so is miraculous. 💔
I thought way more of the town would have been wiped out since they had two large tornadoes go right through there. Amazing how one house is fully intact, barely touched, and the ones right next to it are leveled. This is easily EF-4.
So much. So incredibly devastating. I can’t imagine the shock. Praying for you people of Sulphur. I’m so so sorry this happened to your town and your people. 😢
This looks like EF4 damage. There are homes completely leveled as well as significant damage to brick buildings. These damage images look consistent with a number of EF4 damage photos I was able to find online. I think the tightly packed brick buildings downtown can give people the false sense this was a weaker storm. Look at roughly 09:43. The edge brick building was completely demolished.
Those poor people,thank you for the drone footage Brandon.
Tornados can kill! Jesus saves sinners! God bless you!!!

I have been hearing Sulphur was hit by 2 tornados. I truly hope not.
@@TheLightbright01 It was, second one showed up while first responders were on scene and they were told to take shelter.
That is Terrible @@thefunniestfarm4731
My prayers are out for all the people effected by this. If you have a way for me to help let me know .

Every time I see a video like this all I can think of is how do you come back from this??? So heartbreaking

So Heartbreaking 🙏🙏.. Awesome drone coverage Brandon..
Thank you 🙌
@@WxChasing I’m guessing that tornado damage was EF4 tornado damage
Tornados can kill! Jesus saves sinners! God bless you!!!
I’m confident in high end EF3 but a low end EF4 would not surprise me.

Minden is in the same situation! I heard no casualties though thanks be to God.
This level of damage looks like from an EF 3 tornado. The structures that were leveled to the pad is one sign of that and almost every building in the affected area looks either completely or moderately destroyed.
My heart goes out to all of you in Sulphur, Ok. It is shocking to see such devastation.
Yup, looks like EF3, insofar as the larger buildings don't seem to have collapsed
Seeing this breaks my heart 💔😢
Horrible devastation! Praying for everyone in this sweet little Oklahoma town. 😢
That some crazy footage, some much damage and destruction, prayers to everyone involved.
OMG! I am so sorry. Sending love and prayers, from Oregon.

Not seeing anything close to EF4 and certainly not EF5. A lot of high-end EF2 damage and pockets of EF3 damage from what I’ve seen.
F3 at the most
I was thinking high EF-3 maybe EF-4

same the town layout and damage are pretty similar unfortunately 😢
But Mayfield was one EF-5. This town saw multiple EF-3, EF-4 in the same night.
