- 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
Recently saw the 90s version with the same title starring Hunt & Paxton which was an epic disaster thriller. It was better than this one in every sense be it casting, acting, emotional connect or gravity & intensity of scenes. One thing though seemed to have improved is the visual effects and why not, it's been 30 years since the previous one got released. It's the least they could have done.
Kate, a former tornado chaser is lured back to study a series of tornados expected to hit Oklahoma. Still haunted by a devastating encounter with a tornado during her college years, she crosses paths with fearless Tyler Owens, a modern day tornado chaser cum blogger and his awesome team. In 1996 version they had this alert system called Dorothy which was supposed to track the nature of the tornado. In this film they go next level to mitigate the tornado itself.
Daisy Edgar Jones looks great but disappoints with her portrayal of Kate. Her performance lacked the vigor and magnitude that Hunt's character had. Glen Powell carries the whole movie with his ever-charming role. Though this movie lacked the thrill that the other Twister had, maybe because of the better cast involved in the earlier installment, current version excels in the visual department. Those Tornados looked realistically awesome on the big screen.
