Located just beyond Pluto, Haumea spins so rapidly that it has been elongated like a football approximately 2200 km long. The strange planet has two moons, Hi'iaka and Namaka: IAU press release.

Destroyed in seconds 9/4 El Reno airport tornado destruction




2 category 1 tornado footages from Oklahoma (no date)

Other one was anticyclonic rips off and rips through the long hangars
