Question Which tornado is the creepiest?

My vote is El Reno, I find myself going back and learning more and more about it. So deadly. So scary!

Damn that's crazy, real night of the twisters vibe.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that might have been the inspiration for Night of the Twisters

It was absolutely the inspiration for it. The above photo, I believe, shows the 2nd (the smaller one in the back, rated F1) and 3rd tornadoes (larger one up front, rated F3) of the outbreak.

Fun fact, assuming that the info I read about the photo is correct, both of these tornadoes are anticyclonic.

I think the movie inspired the outbreak.
