Storm chasers who targeted south-central Nebraska were treated to the best chase day of the year to date, as multiple highly-visible, highly-photogenic tornadoes occurred in the area.

TVN had an INSANE day! The RC Super Hauler successfully deployed 5 probes into two different tornadoes, while the SRV made FOUR (4) intercepts... including one that resulted in a blown out window and bloody faces for everyone onboard! (MORE DETAILS TO COME!)

Stream Thunder captured dramatic footage of multiple tornadoes near Grand Island and Aurora - cluck READ MORE to see their INCREDIBLE video!; other chasers' footage is still to come, so check back for updates!!!

gasorg,

I didn't notice any particular sound on the first tornado (other than the rushing sound during the time they were moving in the vehicle), but the last tornado sure has an eerie howling whistling sound to it, and under that sound is the 'waterfall' sound I've heard described too.

The sound of the first tornado (the wedge) seems pretty clear to me starting at about 2:43 into the video, just before it crosses the dirt road. I hear a definite sustained "whooshing" sound.

K. I shall return after listening another time...

Edit:
Back...Okay. My mistake. That's the tornado I was hearing as well. For some reason I thought it was the later.
You're right, gas. And isn't that an eerie sound? Otherworldly, hollow, echo-y, whistlely, whooshing...no wonder people have trouble describing the sound of the things.
