China. An EF2 wedge tornado tore through the cities of Huanggang and Ezhou in the central province of Hubei on Monday evening, July 6, 2026, between 7:00 PM and 11:00 PM local time.

It killed at least 11 people and injured over 330 others. Local authorities have deployed thousands of emergency personnel as rescue efforts continue through the debris.

The vortex battered the densely populated municipalities of Huanggang and Ezhou for nearly four hours, packing catastrophic winds of up to 149 km/h (93 mph).

Eyewitness footage captured the terrifying moment the massive wedge tornado illuminated the night sky, throwing debris into the air and blowing out transformer grids.

The tornado made 22 buildings to collapse entirely within minutes. More than 4,850 homes and commercial properties sustained severe damage.

Widespread blackouts plunged entire neighborhoods into total darkness.Vehicles were flipped or tossed like toys due to the violent updrafts.

In neighboring Ezhou, a man was reportedly sucked directly out of his 12th-story apartment window by the intense low pressure of the vortex.

The cloud formation is incredible looking .

The last video is horrifying. Seeing the man stuck in the wind with all the debris flying is pretty scary…

Great post!
