2022 Robloxity Tornado

The April 15th, 2022, Robloxity EF5 Tornado, nicknamed "The Wide One" (originally nicknamed "The Big One", but caused ambiguation with This Big One), was the last tornado of the 2022 Republic of Roblox Tornado Outbreak. It was a long-tracking wedge tornado that affected the Hayssajara, Southern Robloxity, Bay's Peakland, and Robloxity's East Coast boroughs. Besides those four boroughs, the tornado also entered the Malpmassblox borough, but since the borough's damage has been assessed as very high-end EF5, it did not affect the borough at all. According to the Republic of Roblox Weather Service Robloxity Radar, winds inside the vortex were around 416 miles per hour, recorded as the tornado tracked east from the North Pacific Ocean to Cerillina Bay Town via Suarez and Orindana, and tracked north from Cerillina Bay Town to Cerillina Bay via New Robloxity. Shortly after the tornado left New Robloxity, the Republic of Roblox Weather Service Robloxity Radar room lost power. Attempts to reboot the radar in the radar room were unsuccessful as the radar room was uplifted, despite it being the only storm shelter and bunker in the entirety of Robloxity. Many scientists and meteorologists were killed by the storm, preventing them from claiming this to quite possibly be the first EF6 tornado, based on the absolute destruction witnessed in the aftermath and the fact most storm shelters and bunkers were totally destroyed.

Meteorological Synopsis

As a waterspout (Part 1)

Due west of Suarez, spotters visually confirmed a "strong, pronounced, and small rope" on the North Pacific Ocean. The small but strong and pronounced waterspout ran through the North Pacific Ocean, destroying any galley in its way, specifically 2. Thankfully, the galleys were abandoned. At this point the waterspout was (thankfully) missing sailing vehicles like rowboats, adaptable paddleboats, cutters, and sailing ships, but would hit its third galley head on. 100% of the galley was flattened. At this point, the waterspout reached 200 miles per hour winds (very high-end EF4), and had entered Robloxity as a tornado, with the capitals of Suarez, Orindana, Cerillina Bay Town, New Robloxity, and more in its path.

As a tornado (Part 2)

The tornado would enter into the capital of Suarez, wiping out everything in its path. It would hit the center of town, killing 283,021, most of which were hunkered down in the storm shelter, which was completely flattened. The tornado had crossed with a width of 2 miles, and winds of 377 MPH. Storm chasers who were chasing the tornado and stopped in Suarez reported "Complete and utter devastation". Storm chasers had also already reported severe ground scouring, with some even reporting scouring up to 2-3 feet (24-36 inches). The tornado, moving at anywhere from 40-61 MPH, crossed the Hayssajara-Malpmassblox border to Malpmassblox, where it did more severe ground scouring on top of the severe ground scouring that existed before the tornado entered Malpmassblox. However, it did not devastate the borough further, as the borough was already completely and utterly devastated by the time the tornado entered and the borough. The tornado then crossed the Malpmassblox-Southern Robloxity border to Southern Robloxity.

Southern Robloxity's capital, Orindana, would receive the brunt force of the tornado, width and wind wise. A television station's meteorologist would say of the tornado as it entered Orindana,

"This is looking to be worse than the worst tornado ever. This is looking to have a very high fatality count".

The television station's meteorologist, as well as everyone inside the studio, were killed as the studio and transmitter were devastated and uplifted, respectively.

Orindana would see the widest point of the tornado, at 2.5 Miles wide, and wind speeds at around 416 MPH. More unfortunately, the tornado would affect Orindana, before moving into Bay's Peakland, and affecting Cerillina Bay Town here. Malfunctioning EWS es (Early Warning Systems) and all news channels inability to cover the storm due to devastated studios and uplifted transmitters, were equally culpable for the deaths of 191,901 people.

The tornado would reduce its size to 1.9 miles wide and would enter Cerillina Bay Town, where it grazed a church and an elementary school, causing incredible damage. At this point, even though the width had reduced, the windspeed remained at around 409 MPH, resulting in "absolute destruction on levels no person should ever witness". Trees were completely uprooted, and some were even noted to have been thrown as far as Cerillina Bay Town High School, causing so much damage to house and structures that they were flattened. The tornado would flatten a middle school, killing people who did not get to shelter in time. The tornado would continue steamrolling everything, and only seconds after destroying a middle school and another church, it would destroy another school, and a district. No structures remained standing after this. Another elementary school would be destroyed as well. Moments later, the tornado would destroy a motel. The tornado would then turn left. After wiping out a large apartment building and causing "irreparable structural damage" to a recently built building, the tornado would cross the Bay's Peakland-Robloxity's East Coast border into New Robloxia. At this point, the tornado had taken 312,612 more lives in Bay's Peakland, resulting in 787,500+ deaths.

New Robloxia, relatively speaking, was unable to be spared from the horror of the tornado. The worst was to come. The tornado with winds of 404 miles per hour barreled towards New Robloxia and would hit head on. All of the borough's capital was flattened, and the last 221,432 people on Republic of ROBLOX were killed.

"Nobody could have seen such a devastating tornado to hit us like this." -Last Words ever recorded in Republic of ROBLOX.

Aw man! There are no more survivors to kill! (Part 3)

After flattening the borough's capital of New Robloxia, the tornado would destroy the last standing structures of Republic of ROBLOX. A fire station, a community college, an underground shelter and bunker, an elementary school, and a housing development would all be victimized to devastation at the tornado's 319 mph winds.

As a waterspout again (Part 4)

The tornado drastically weakened to 160 mph (EF3), with a max width of 0.8 miles wide as it entered the Cerillina Bay as a waterspout. The tornado would continue to track north, severely damaging several more abandoned sailing vehicles, before finally dissipating northeast of Peninsula Point.

Aftermath:

In all, over 1,009,000 Robloxians were killed in the 36.73 seconds lifespan of the tornado, and no one was injured.

President ROBLOX visited the Republic of ROBLOX after the tornado finally dissipated and described Robloxity as "Tsar Bombed". Ground scouring was noted to be 4-6 feet (48-72 inches) deep in Malpmassblox, but then again, 2-3 feet of ground scouring existed before this tornado scoured the ground of Malpmassblox. Storm chasers would track this tornado from start to finish, but they ended up dying as the tornado devastated their tornado intercept vehicles, Dominators, and scouts. A celebrity storm chaser was quoted during his chase, as saying

"This is the wide one guys! This is going to be bad!"

. He said this as the tornado had just left Suarez. This eerily predictive quote would be used as a nickname for the tornado. Approx. 52 storm chasers were chasing the tornado, but only 6 kept chasing past Suarez, those being the Dominator crew, led by Reed Timmer.

The resulting destruction would result in a complete collapse in the Republic of ROBLOX. President ROBLOX used an administrator command to quickly rebuild the republic, respawn everyone, and demote everyone to a "citizen".
