Video shows a “strong tornado in Atlanta.”

Three clips of tornadoes whipping through houses and ripping off roofs appear in a video recently shared on Facebook. 

“Tornado in ATLANTA,” text over the video says. 

The caption of the July 21 Facebook post sharing the video: “Strong tornado in Atlanta USA.” 

This post was flagged as part of Meta’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram.)

A EF2 tornado touched down in Atlanta in April — at night, in the dark — and none of the clips in the Facebook post, all recorded in daylight, show the Georgia twister. 

The first clip was shot in May 2022 in Andover, Kansas. 

The second clip also appears to show the Kansas tornado. Another video, which an ABC News affiliate in Tulsa, Oklahoma, published on YouTube, shows a similar scene. 

The third clip was shot in June 2023 in Indiana. USA Today published the footage after several severe tornadoes developed across the central part of the state. 

Some of the footage has been altered — quickened or flipped so that images that were on the right are now on the left. 

We rate claims these clips show a tornado in Atlanta False.
