∙ 7y agoNo. The movie is a complete work of fiction and has many innacuracies about both tornadoes and storm chasing. The only bit of reality is the concept of the instrument pack "Dorothy" which is loosely based on a probe named "TOTO," which was created and unsuccessfully deployed about ten years before Twister was made.
