by Politas180

Realistic Tornado Disasters adds developing supercell storms that can produce tornadoes, storm radar and warning instruments for tracking them on NeoForge 1.21.1.

NeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.1

What it does

Storms in the Overworld build over several phases, from an early cell to a rotating base that drops a lower funnel, then fade and disperse. Natural opportunities for severe weather appear roughly 40 to 80 active minutes apart by default, and a storm usually lasts 8 to 12 minutes with tornadoes active for about 1 to 3 minutes. Timings and the storm limit can be changed in the config, and tornado destruction is enabled by default, so wind can pull exposed entities, throw debris and damage weaker blocks.

Players can watch the clouds, follow storm radar and get indoors before the wind arrives. Craftable instruments include a Storm Radar, a Tornado Detector that sounds lamps and sirens and outputs redstone, and a Weather Probe that records peak gusts and pressure. The mod runs on NeoForge only, with the latest file for 1.21.1 released 2026-09-16. It is licensed under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Back up the world before installing.

Key features

  1. Developing supercells

    Storms move through stages with rotating bases and funnels that vary in width, strength and motion.

  2. Storm radar

    The Storm Radar shows rain echoes, Doppler wind and hail, and lets the player select a storm and follow its observed track.

  3. Tornado Detector

    A placeable detector gives watch, warning and take-shelter alerts, with redstone output that distinguishes warning levels.

  4. Weather Probe

    Reads local wind, peak gusts, modeled pressure and rain, and remembers extremes until reset.

  5. Wind and debris

    Exposed entities are pulled and debris is thrown, while material resistance determines which blocks are damaged.
