WATCH: Tornados strike Oklahoma, Nebraska and Iowa | Midwest Tornado Outbreak Recap

This past weekend was by far the most significant tornado outbreak so far in 2024. States in the Midwest and Great Plains saw what seemed like continuous tornadoes from Friday tall the way to Sunday.

The video, is truly unbelievable. Wild footage was captured Friday of tornadoes tearing through Nebraska and Iowa to start the weekend.

One tornado specifically was caught crossing over interstate 80 north of Lincoln, Nebraska with a visible wall of flying debris surrounding it.

A wedge tornado was also seen outside of Harlan, Iowa in which locals described as "at least a mile-wide vortex".

Then on Saturday, this outbreak hit Oklahoma.

Towns like Sulphur and Marietta, south of Oklahoma City, were torn apart by the damaging winds.

These winds were so strong that areas not even in the direct path of the tornado, like Norman, Oklahoma, saw trees branches puncture insulation walls. This takes an incredible amount of force to do—giving an idea of how fast debris moves in tornado vortices.

But maybe the most dangerous part of this outbreak, is that these tornadoes continued into the nighttime hours. For folks driving, tornadoes were only visible by occasional lightning flashes, and flying debris is not seen until it's right on top of you.

Nothing truly does this tornado outbreak justice, but here's a few numbers for perspective.

As of 9 p.m. last night, a total of 278 tornado warnings were issued by National Weather Service Offices this past weekend. This number will continue to climb as other states like Texas and Louisiana have seen the system trek further eastward this morning.
