В округе Кейп-Гирардо в Миссури жители засняли тропический воронкообразный вихрь

Tropical Funnel spotted in Cape Girardeau County CAPE GIRARDEAU COUNTY, Mo. (KFVS) - Several Heartland News viewers spotted tropical funnels near southern Cape Girardeau County on Thursday. Jessica Bishop spotted a funnel near Allenville, Missouri at approximately 11:15 a.m. Facebook User Donald Lynn Hovis Jr. shared live video on Facebook just before noon, between Scott City and Delta. Is shows the funnel just over a fence and tree line. A voice on the video said the funnel was going back in to the clouds. The video was viewed roughly seven thousand times in roughly four hours. Another eyewitness to the funnel cloud was Job Valero. “Oh yeah man I was over yonder in one of them fields, then I see the twister or the tornado start coming together, and we started bugging out,” Valero said. “It was kind of wild being from Texas (Houston) and all, seeing a tornado.” A resident of Delta, Jennifer Lankford, said the funnel cloud instantly reminded her of last year’s storm. “Immediately, since I had just left, call my family to see if the houses were okay because it looked like it was right behind my house... with last year’s storm, it just, a lot of stuff happened,” Lankford said. “I was scared that I was going to come back to maybe something bigger than when I left.” According to the National Weather Service, tropical funnels form and dissipate quickly, making them difficult to study. Tropical Funnels rarely make contact with the ground, and if they do, the wind speeds are typically less than 70 m.p.h. The NWS notes that “All around these storms are much less dangerous than tornadoes that form from supercells, but they should be noted as they can cause minor damage if they reach the ground.” Copyright 2026 KFVS.
