- TriviaJames Paxton, the son of Bill Paxton, appears during the rodeo scene as the angry hotel guest.
- GoofsIn the movie, tornadoes kept popping up and catching crowds unaware.
In Oklahoma TV stations compete aggressively to offer the best severe weather coverage. When conditions are right for potential severe each station would have at least three - if not more - teams of trained spotters deployed, a helicopter for each station, and multiple forms of advanced radar to track storms.
While there are a number of amateur, academic and even weather-tourism spotters around, the majority of spotters would be affiliated with television stations, and citizens know to be following weather reports, resulting in significant advanced notice of approaching storms.

Featured review
Twisters takes what worked best about the original movie and expands on it. The chemistry between the main cast is off the charts. The special effects are well done and never suspend belief in the disasters happening on screen. The story makes clear the objective from the beginning and doesn't take its foot off the gas from there. It's also nice to see some Oklahoma representation in a major production. However, the movie isn't perfect, of course. Some of the story is predictable at times, characters motivations flip flop, and some of the science in the movie may just be movie magic. Despite all of that, Twisters is easily a summer blockbuster done right and a great time at the movies. So if you feel these types of movies, chase them!
