- I was pelted by a stick taking this video so I hope you enjoy it.
Was very scary I could barely hold the door open to take the video.
I started taking cover just inside the door with my arm out because I was scared something large was going to hit me. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
this was a derecho
That sounds right. Lots of speculation. Some say tornado, some say hurricane and some say just really bad storm. I like your word derecho though. I googled it and it looks legit.
@@aaahhhchew8028 people dont seem to understand what are tornadoes and how huricanes happen
Indeed it was. We had the same event hit in Quebec, hands down the most violent storm I've ever experienced.
Wow you are brave. I just got one pic of the ground. Too busy soiling myself. I live on the 15th floor in your building. Thank you for posting this. That was the scariest storm I have ever seeing.
Thanks man. I couldn't really believe what I was seeing at first. And yes that is the scariest storm I have seen as well. The video doesn't really do it justice. Whatever it was went directly over our building. The leaves were flying so fast they actually stuck to my clothing like paint. And I got hit with a small twig that felt like I got hit by a rock.
William Sauve...And people don't want to believe in a GOD? Since when did you see weather like this people? Time to change your ways!
All the videos of this derecho there is some definite rotation inside it, you can see little vortexes swirling and the look of the wind and rain coming from two different directions with leaves going round and round
Yes a Funnel Cloud and may be weak but not small to make a larger Area of Vortexes'. Good to you notice this and you must be in to Meteorology for sure? If this was a Severe thunderstorm with out the Derecho effect it could have become a F3 Tornado Possible with out the Derecho Counteracting the development.
Great footage. Derechos are nuts!
Thanks!
Lol 2:56 his reactions of Transformer explosion
I have been WFH from Toronto the last 2 years but I was covering for one of my colleagues who didn't have power until last friday lol, no wonder why...I was actually travelling to the US the morning of this storm, and only found out about the warning once we got a free wifi from mcdonald lol, glad I closed all my windows in my house before leaving.
Just think of all the animals, birds affected by this storm
They dipped a long time before the storm even came
@@KoId. true.. but a lot are/were nesting o-o
Looked like a rainwrapped tornado at the beginning.
The first explosion took out the power and then the power tried to come back on and then a stronger explosion took the power out for good
That's not a "transformer explosion" - just a tree branch falling on the line. A device called a "recloser" will detect the fault and open the line (shut the power off). Then after a short delay it will "close back in" the line again to test if the fault still exists, which was the bigger second arc. If there's still a fault, then it locks out and someone has to come fix it. Some faults will clear themselves (like a very small tree branch that after it falls isn't touching the line anymore, or mylar party balloons on the line which will be obliterated after the first fault) - the re-closer gets the power back on automatically in those cases without the linesmen coming to investigate and finding no continuing issue, and people being without power until they show up. In this case, they clearly have to come cut the branch away as it's still touching the line on the retry.
That is nuts!

something budgetable,
I experienced a derecho about 10 years ago. It was a bad experience mainly due to losing power for 3 days during a heat wave. 3 days is short compared to my friend who had to wait a week and others over a week. I felt awful tossing out all the spoiled food.
That's Pretty Scary I hope no one was out Beside the Transformer when it hugely looked like a firework after it went and could be heard a long way but a Miricle that the rain put out the sparks. However did hear a ton of Damaged trees and some of that power in some areas took time or perhaps a few days to restore
Correct. Well, when it did hit I could hear screams in the distance that sent chills down my spine.
Optimus prime did his duty
that came to me at around 1pm
WOW the Derecho is Forming Vortexes. a funnel cloud formed above you or near you it sure looks that way?🌬🌬🌪🌪
For sure for sure. You could really get an idea of how things were moving with all the leaves in the air like tracers.
Explosion just after 3 minutes.
Two explosions starting 2:55
ainda bem que no Brasil somos abençoados e nao passamos por isso
BRASIL BRASIL
Is look like power line short circuit only not transformer explosion
3:00 explosion
You can see something on fire at that spot from the storm and a bit later two explosions starting at 2:55
The poor birds!
well, science has been talking years ago shit weather like this will happen, get used to it,
You can hear the hail
It's actually small debris hitting the building. Sounds just like hail because it was so much small debris.
Hello aaahhhchew, is it possible to contact you regarding this video (i.e. via email)? We would be interested to discuss a license to use this video if this is generally possible to discuss? :) Cheers, Felix
Can't tell if brave or dumb. Both I guess lol. I wish I recorded something myself... but my hearing's sensitive so I staked out in the basement o; and setting up a camera didn't cross my mind at the time o-o sky had gone completely black... storm didn't last long for us though. Like a couple mins... one end of city lost power, but that was pretty much the worst of it afaik. Nothing my mom had outside was disturbed.. not even a potted plant o:
My mom said someone she knew had to go out to balcony to stop her potted plants from going places.. had trouble trying to get the door closed after retrieving them o-o
Surprised I haven't seen more footage in this day and age lol. There's a bunch, but not as many as I'd expect given how rare of an event this is, and how crazy it was.
Yeah it was dumb for sure what I was doing. Dangerous. A small twig hit me and it felt like I got pelted by a rock. One thing people watching don't really notice is the tinging sound almost sounds like water hitting the building but it's actually tons and tons of small debris. My phone didn't pick up the sounds and the intensity of it all. Thanks for good comment LadyTarasque.
@@aaahhhchew8028 It looks like you were mostly sheltered by the building as the wind is mostly blowing from behind you - if you were on the opposite side of the building facing into the wind, I don't think you'd be outside filming! That's pretty great video! This was quite the storm - lots of video of it showing up on youtube the last few days. There was another Derecho in South Dakota just a week or 2 before this one in Ontario. That one kicked up so much dust that it went from 5:30pm daylight to pitch black in about 30 seconds as it rolled through! Some pretty amazing video of that one around too
@@gorak9000 Without question.
Americans Indians told you this day was coming. Do you still don't believe in global warming?
How are these videos blowing up so much?
I try to upload something like this, and I don't fucking get squat
Same, I saw other video's of this storm with like 50k views. I guess I got lucky on this one a little bit. But still on the low side.
Tbh This look way more than just a thunderstorm 😱 look like a hurricane I'm from Hamilton live in Hamilton Ontario. We're i live I didn't get any damaging near me where I live but I saw downtown Hamilton tree that fell in front of apartment buildings. It just feel like more like a hurricane cuz the way the winds were
Yes I completely agree. I think it was hurricane levels for sure. I have lived in ottawa my entire life and have never seen anything like it.
a derecho is a strong group of thunderstorms that often forms bow echoes meaning it can put down very heavy rain and straight line winds, something you'd see from a hurricane
@@aaahhhchew8028 we never get harrcanes in Canada. But I can't believe possibly it happend. That was rare we got one in Canada
It's hurricane season in US that could explain why. We got hafe of there storm.
@@lamargoat2.054 Yeah that sounds super legit man. All I know is I have lived here in Ottawa 36 years and I have never seen anything like this. Even a few years back when we had a storm and lost power it wasn't even close to as bad as this. The ice storm that we had a decade ago was as bad as it got until this. I think when I look back on this it was the howling screams I could hear from the street that gives me the chills.
Could have been a good video...got sea sick from the camera being whipped around everywhere
Couldn't help it, the wind and fear got at me.
