Thanks for the footage, it’s been over half a year and I thought I wouldn’t cry seeing this but here eye am crying seeing where the tornado passes by and hits my home and parents home, the home of friends and neighbors.. Nature truly humbles me. I want to call this tornado a monster, but it’s such a beautiful sight and yet deadly as well.. cleaning Earth’s surface, polishing it just what nature does. All we can do is our best and hope not to be taken by it. Sirens were not heard. People still till today didn’t get enough help. My hometown will never be the same. What we do know is how big of a heart this town and its surroundings got.. all the help from strangers we got. I’m still crying as I type this. I don’t know them strangers but I will forever be grateful for them who came for weeks just to help the needed. I love you all for that. 💙

omg, it hit your house? a debris field was visible from my backyard last year during a tornado which ripped through our community, I saw things in the air that should never be in the air. The things I found in my yard in the aftermath, were insulation, light fixtures (indoor and outdoor), wood splinters, outdoor furniture pieces, and other clues that homes were ripped apart. I hope you have fully recovered from the destruction my friend!!!

Excellent footage, excellent communication, and exemplary of how professional tornado chasers should do it. No cursing, no unnecessary screaming, and no team cohesion problems here. You both were an excellent team. Kudos, and huge respect.

I was watching Ryan's feed when this happened. My family, some of my cousins from my dad's side lived in Perryton. My granny's buried there. I was in tears watching this happen. It hit downtown and did some serious damage. I remember hanging out there as a kid in the 60s and 70s and it was hard to watch it happen from 800 miles away. You did a great job watching it, thanks for posting this one.

That’s absolutely wild how quick it formed in front of you before just slowing down as it barrelled through town. This year’s chase season has been one that has me sad to of missed but also glad I wasn’t there to see some of the really bad ones. Awesome footage, thanks for sharing. Stay safe as well.

This video struck me with the same excitement as when I watched it live. Very well done guys!

I was watching Ryan's stream while this was unfolding, truly a gut wrenching day. The footage you got that day was absolutely insane, right there in the frontline of the beast. 👏 stay safe out there, sending all my well wishes from Australia 🇦🇺

Best video I’ve seen in regards to the Perryton EF3! You captured its tornadogenesis perfectly and the ground view as it went through the town was harrowing. Recognizing some of the spots in town that I saw the next day was chilling. Great video

Freddy that was absolutely insane to watch! I mean holy cow man! Great footage and you kept your composure to safely navigate.

I saw Ryan's stream that day. That was insane. Some of the craziest tornado footage I've seen in a long time. As Tim would always say, keep an exit in mind. Stay safe out there this year friend.

Thanks so much for taking video of this. What brave guys you are. I'm glad your ok. My Daughter and her family live in Perryton.

Great video. I’m a stormchaser who is currently (unfortunately) living in AZ, after growing up in the South. I was in Perryton (on a storm trip) literally two days before this tornado. I love small towns, and I remember thinking that Perryton was an amazing small town - much like Joplin. Seeing Perryton (via Ryan) be hit was devastating.

Watching this live was absolutely surreal. Thank you for your contributions to the Wx community and weather science

I thought i recognized your name Freddy, I been watching Ryan's lives for a good while and found the storm chasers so amazing to watch and with what you captured. His program is what made me started watching the storm chasers. I always call Tornados deadly beauties.

Imagine how scary this must have been, massive respect to you for making this gorgeous footage! You earned yourself a New subscriber. ❤

Awesome video. Coincidentally, Google Maps street view happened to be updated in June 2023 to show much of the tornado damage not long after it occurred in Perryton TX. The part of the street view I checked coincides with the map in this video at 6:12 moving forward, which happened to be where many trailer homes were. I grew up hearing that trailer homes are not as safe as others in tornadoes.

Super spooky to know exactly where you were at times... You drove right by my house. Thankfully I was one of the lucky ones that had minimal damage. However when I pulled up to our fire station my heart sunk seeing that it had taken a direct hit. We were still able to fire up all of our trucks, kick out the windshields, and drive out of the rubble of what was left of our station to get out and help who we could.

Tornadoes are kind of like eclipses or viewing a galaxy in the middle of nowhere. I get goosebumps and I'm in awe by the sheer power of nature.

heres a little tip if you can see individual pieces of debris and the bottom of the tornado you are too close for comfort thankfully no debris fell near them cause that stuff is moving way faster than you think

Hell of a video! Great coverage!
