Beautiful tornado!!
Awe my fellow Democratic American liberal patriot
Keep pretending to be a troll
🌪️ are NOT jokes. RIP. I also love weather.
It was a nasty storm.
Hit tinker airforce base.
Those men didn’t die from a storm. Sounds cool, though.
Allah is pushing you idol worshipping
They were not killed by the nature. They were killed by another human. RIP.
wouldnt water on the road causing them to spin Out be Nature….sure wasn’t the other drivers fault.
Yes but if they weren’t trying to chase the tornado they would be alive. Stupid simply stupid 🙄
@Great Blackness the report stated they were driving back home AFTER the tornado.
@Chris E. Another media outlet reported their vehicle hydroplaned; went over the median and crashed into the semi.
Yawn
Trolls are hilarious 😂
God is pushing us
No, you cannot blame God for nature.
RIP. Sincere condolences to the families and friends.
So very sad
what exactly happened?
They were driving home from tornado watching and got in a car crash and died
probably the worst title you could’ve picked
“wow ironic, they were meteorologists who got killed by a tornado” is that what you were looking for, or?..
Scariest thing ever
that was a very nice honor for the three young men who tragically died in the crash. our thoughts and prayers are with their families. 🙏
@Redjam redjam Good luck in life.
@Oregon Crow
Keep triggering the queen vladz trolling clowns buddy and thank youuuuuu for supporting our American democracy my fellow democratic liberal patriot American citizen 🇺🇸👊🏻🇺🇸
You’re doing great buddy 🇺🇸🏆🇺🇸
@Redjam redjam k
@Oregon Crow
Thank for the comedy my fellow democratic liberal American patriot
You’re doing great buddy 🇺🇸👊🏻🇺🇸
Sad news. My heart and prayers go out to family and friends. May you find peace and may God be with you. Condolences from Utah.
OMG that’s very dangerous. 😱😱😱
This is sad. The government should form a special committee to look into hurricanes.
— tornadoes ?
Oh yes, tornadoes.
There is no secret to what causes tornados.
😂 storm spotters like them work for the National Weather Service (NWS) which is a section of NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. They were assisting the government.
Dont watch NBC..
Why ? Because Mick Malvaney works works for cbs ? 🤮
Lmaoooooo
N yet here you are 😂
Why would anyone chase a tornado 🌪 😐
People are trained with NOAAs NWS and certain administrations to be authorized storm spotters to give on the ground updates to NWS. That’s largely how people get confirmation of tornadoes or hail storms moving their way, radar is one thing, but the on the ground spotters are a secondary confirmation that is working with the NWS (National Weather Service), which is a section of NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration).
Why, well because it is much better than being chased by one.
That couple is lucky and storm chasing is never safe thats why I warn against chasing storms
So sad 😢 rip love ones b comforted .
Wow. Rest now. You have the perfect weather.
I don’t know how parents can talk about it so soon.
Right I would be completely devistated 😭😭😭😭😭
They may be in shock and not feeling it all yet. Such a sad tragic ending to these young men
my condolence 🙏 to all the family and friends may there soul RIP 🙏
Followed science into the after life!!! RIP GANSTERS 🙏 IN JESUS NAME
Don’t send bombs across the world or you will reap God’s wrath.
Heartbreaking
Let’s build a family and home in the path of KNOWN TORNADO ZONES. Bold move Cotton, let’s see if it works out for them.
That lets out a that lets out quite a few states. Everywhere from Texas to Canada.
@M John “That lets out a that lets out” Big Brain
Nothing like living in Tornado Alley. How ironic that it wasn’t the tornado that killed them.
It’s not ironic.
There is Angel for everything
Angel for earth quick Angle for taking your soul Angel for rain Angel for wind
King Suluman was telling the wind to take him from place to place
🌬⭐may the three students stay “forever young” in paradise!!💙💙💙⭐
Ucrazee or sumptin ?
It’s ironic that so many storm chasers have died because of traffic, not the storms. There were 2 others that died because one of vehicles didn’t stop at a stop sign a few years ago.
Truth, I am sure there are more but the only people I know who passed from a storm while chasing it, were the weather channel guys/crew, and what a gnarly beast they were up.against that day. Erratic and huge, a viscious combination, very dangerous requiring much more caution than “other” more str8 line storms, smaller, less violent storms. When you get at 3 and above, you’re really tickling the dragon, testing fate, and murphy. he has a quick wit, turns on a dime, and then snaps back. I would love to witness a large one in person from a safe, clear distance, of course… like we all do… Right up there where you can feel, hear, smell taste it, yet pretty much KNOWING it won’t be where you are again.
were they getting a D in class? everyone knows F3 nados are dangerous, hard way to learn that lesson
They didn’t by the tornado lol
So sad, well, at least they were together and following their dreams. It was likely an epic day, too. I only hope their passing was quick and relatively painless. As a sufferer of severe chronic pain, I now unfortunately understand the plight of family and friend who dealt with chronic issues most of their lives. I led an extremely fulfilling life and was also doing what I loved. Many people never even get to experience the love of doing a passion, and thus, these young men were lucky to have that and each other to the end. Rest in peace.
They were killed by the driver’s hubris behind the wheel, not the aftermath of the tornado.
REPENT .. JESUS IS COMING.
So sad
Prayers to all the families affected
I just hydro planned the other day. Scary. Sad for these boys and families.
goodness gracias
Three men die in a car crash,
Players for families and friends.
My prayers are with their families and friends. I pray that their with “Our Lord and Savior”, and that Our Lord is with their families, as they mourn the loss of their loved ones. “God bless to all of you”. With ❤ and 🙏’s…🕯🕯🕯
Someday commercial trucking will have it’s own highway.
🕯️🕯️🕯️
These storms are coming weekly alot more tornado activity than I can remember
They should have known better after seeing the color of the tornado
You mean chasing stupid and being stupid. That’s what storm chasers are. They look very immature. Storm chasers need to be licensed and have expert driving courses too.
RIP
How sad.
They passed away because of chasing tornadoes. RIP.
Dumb and Dumber and Dumbest. …chasing their dreams.
F*CKING FAKE NEWS!!! ALL PHOTOSHOP!!! COMPUTER GENERATED SH*T!!!! AND TERRORIST ACTORS!!!!!!
Wow people that should have known better. GOD HAVE MERCY
My heart breaks for the family and friends of these 3 young men. 💔
RIP ❤ Storm Chasers
Irony
Palestine People Pray,
Poor homes’ insurers…
That is so wrong & just so unfair. I’m balling heartbreaking condolences to fam & friends & trucker. Awful.
Muito triste
“Three Meteorology Students Killed In The Aftermath Of Kansas Tornado” is clickbait. They were killed in a car accident on wet roads chasing a tornado, the aftermath had nothing to do with it.
Volcanoes are apparently more predictable…
Why do ppl continue tio build and live in tornado prone areas?
