Tornado tears through Nebraska, causing severe damage to homes

A tornado plowed through suburban Omaha, Nebraska on April 26, 2024, destroying homes and other structures as the twister tore for miles along farmland and into subdivisions. Injuries were reported but it wasn’t yet clear if anyone was killed in the storm. Multiple tornadoes were reported in Nebraska but the most destructive storm moved from a largely rural area into suburbs northwest of Omaha, a city of 485,000 people.
Photos on social media showed heavily damaged homes and shredded trees. Video showed homes with roofs stripped of shingles, in a rural area near Omaha. Law enforcement was blocking off roads in the area. Video showed one woman being removed from a demolished home on a stretcher in Blair, a city just north of Omaha.
KTLA's Samantha Cortese reports on April 26, 2024.

    As someone who spent most of my time in the Midwest I really appreciate hearing a Los Angeles news station talking about things that happen in the middle of nowhere and smack dab in the middle of America. We often feel forgotten by "coastal elites" It's important to pay attention to everything that's going on everywhere

We watched it start as a funnel and within 2 minutes,it was the huge wedge. It was measured as 1.25 miles in width. I have never seen anything like it. The one in the video is small compared to the monster that hit Omaha.

    I was there for the 1975 tornado -- in Benson area near Maple St. It rained 'pink fiberglass insulation' for quite awhile after it went by. I cleaned up a bunch in the yard but there was insulation stuck in the trees for years. And now that I live in West O, still near Maple St, I wasn't far from this tornado either. Fortunately my parents, who live in Elkhorn, remained unscathed. They tracked at least four tornadoes in the area - one to the north, one to the south, one to the west and one to the east. The one to the east barely missed the airport but did manage to damage a lot of smaller planes.

    I'm from the Midwest and I'm also really interested in severe weather unfortunately I had to work today but I usually watch all of these storm chaser live streams. If it was one of the most powerful tornadoes in the US it would be an EF-5 and would be more powerful than the more Oklahoma tornado or the El Reno Nevada tornado which was only an EF3 but had the highest recorded wind speed on Earth ever, but wasn't rated high enough because the ratings are based on damage and it mostly just got fields but it was 2.6 miles wide and killed three veteran tornado chasers back in 2013. I'm excited to go back and see the footage from today. Sounds like an outbreak for the books

    Why is it that every time there is an outbreak of these destructive things suddenly it is the “strongest tornado in US history” . And in the comments section people start talking about another tornado from years ago trying to lobby for it being bigger/stronger/faster etc. like they are tornado groupies or something. It is not a competition or something to be coveted. These terrible storms cause destruction and to worry about whether your state had the strongest/biggest/fastest shows where our society is in terms of culture. We should focus on the lives these events have affected and less on competitive tornado chasing.

    Tornados have been around forever. It has nothing to do with "messing with weather". Tornadoes occur dozens of times each year around this time. They are devastating and terrifying but they are inevitable and they are common. This tornado is mild in comparison to what it could've been. That said, the last tornado that took a large death toll was 11 years ago in Joplin, Missouri. It was the last recorded EF5 tornado in the USA. This means it had a windspeed of over 200mph and a widespread path of destruction. The largest was in 1999 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. That tornado was not just an EF5 but it holds the record for the highest windspeed ever recorded on the planet... over 310mph. Dubai's weather is not relevant to these tornadoes. We have yet to see the worst kind of tornado possible because we have yet to see an EF5. Pray that we do not.
