News anchor "i havnt talked in a few second so let me talk over the person actually in the situation and talking about things that matter" "ya know the trees didnt completely die"
He's giving the viewer important context about the type of tornado and the fact that you won't be able to see it. And it is relevant that the drought weakened the trees and that there are tens of thousands of them around that are more likely to come apart, which means driving in those conditions puts you in more danger. This is all relevant information to the people who are IN THAT AREA VIEWING LIVE. Do you have any context about what a job is and that people show up to work to do specific things?
That's not an anchor. That's a metrologist named Frank Billingsley. He's a Houston icon like Ed Brandon was. They got Houstonians through many storms and taught us what he is trying to teach Goulding and the watchers. The description from Goulding is nothing the information from Frank could help save your life if you plan on living in Houston during our weather seasons.
I was westbound on I-10 feeder & Beltway 8 around 6:20pm, it was cloudy and not raining but still bright outside and within minutes, it looked as if it was midnight suddenly and rain started pouring. It started getting severely windy and my phone’s tornado notification was beeping and then my car started to sway left to right from the powerful winds.
That's ok just let him go, when the rain stops and the sun comes back out he will not be able to see anything because rain x will cause his windshield to glare in the sun. Get you some silicone wiper blades and run them on a dry windshield for a second or two. Now the rain will bead up like the rain x but without all the glare in the sunlight.
You can buy rain x capsules that disolve into your windshield wiper spray. Thats definitely a good investment. They're like 4$. Rain X makes a world of difference in torrential rain
Really Stupid KPRC to put your staff in such danger.. "yeah, it could be a rain wrapped tornado" .. Frank theres a tree limb... oh, yeah, btw, there's a tornado warning DUH !
No, that doesn't mean a tornado at all. Maybe you don't live anywhere that gets bad storms, so it's understandable to believe a little excess wind instantly means tornado, but all of these things are commonplace in simple strong thunderstorms.
Not necessarily. Heavy rain, hail, darkness, lightning and even debris, individually or in combination, do not mean it's a tornado. Debris definitely can and does get kicked up and transported by strong straight lines, as happened with this derecho.
This is going to be one of the most violent storms we have ever lived through here in Houston, I seen hurricanes that have never even behaved in this manner.
Driving in storm once like this, 99 north out of Bakersfield California. Best I could figure, don't pull over and stop, maybe somebody follows your lights and piles into you! Tagged along behind a moving truck. Scary, and not even a tornado. Bless you, Texans.
Dericho winds can cause these problems too. I got caught in a dericho in Minneapolis about a decade ago. I thought it was a tornado at first! We had 70-80mph winds across south Minneapolis. Branches were slamming onto my car. Got into a building shadow for protection, and watched as the wind felled several mature trees on the block in front of me. When I finally got home, we had downed trees everywhere, and many streets were impassible. Our power was out for four days.
Been in one that had 113mph+ winds based damage assessments. Very similar to the Iowa derecho a few years ago. Pretty much all crops were ruined, over a week without power in August... Craziest thing I've ever seen, and that was in 1986.
This was the most terrifying this I have been through in Houston. I've lived here for 40 years and gone through hurricanes and tropical storms. I also live in the Cypress area of Houston, exactly where this was the worst. No power for 4 days and still it gets shut down because of residual effects of that storm where repairs have to be made.
Man, I do. I moved out to Arizona several years back and we’re lucky to get one good storm a year. Which is expected, of course, but i always found the storms exciting to watch and experience.
If you're in the hail core you're less likely to be in the tornado, the tornado is most likely south of you. Straight line winds in the hail core are very common. We just had a bad hail storm a couple months ago. The tornado rotation went south of us. We ended up with $30K worth of damage to our 😮 rotation from the tornado to the south caused zero damage because the tornado didn't touch down.
Just to be clear - The news crew intercepted nothing. They drove into some heavy rain slightly bordering on hail-producing, then they happened upon some storm-related damage. No evidence of a tornado. Just a strong thunderstorm with high winds. That's all they saw.
@@badgercdlyonsIf what you’re saying is true, then the news crew in this situation experienced a microburst event. It’s a low level tornado event that produces straight line winds during a thunderstorm. Its conditions are similar to tornadoes. However, the tornado doesn’t make touchdown.
@@badgercdlyonsI would say watching the winds and how they shift in this video, there very well could have been a tornado nearby, at least a circulation.
There were a few confirmed tornadoes, but this video doesn't show them. Take it from those of us that have been through bad derechos before, that's just the storm. They can seriously be hurricane-like, but without the storm surge.
Well there's a lot of wind and rain and hail... It's getting kind of loud and tree limbs are everywhere... Cars are frantically trying to drive away from it... I don't know, let's check the radar again...
It helps to give your trees water during the dry season (even a small amount) helps keep the trees from falling down (getting water logged) during Winter.
Are you serious⁉️Was this news crew actually sent out seeking a tornado⁉️ Not professional tornado chasers⁉️ Surely we are going to hear a follow up report tomorrow - ikr
Our entire fence collapsed and we have a massive pile of debris and branches to bag to be taken away. It was absolutely terrifying. Our whole house was shaking and the wind was so loud it sounded like someone screaming
They confirmed it was a Derecho event, these mainly hit the Midwest states, don't usually see them in the south.... it's like a hurricane formed on land
We had ZERO WARNING. It was pretty bright one moment and thanks to a previous bad call on possible weather, the whether man didn't want to call it and be responsible for a false alert. I was caught in it downtown and took over 2.5 hours to get home.
Pretty sure the tornado warning was up at this point. Now i see why people are complaining. Instead of warning communities we're taking live shots like YT storm chasers.
I am in FL. This was hurricane likej. How could weather people not give better notice about this? Those people were on the verge of death. Absolutely terrifying. Climate change in stereo.
Incredible, the weatherman on live TV is explaining what could happen, while it is happening to the crew in the field. I suppose if the twister had carried them off the attorneys back at the HQ would have a real dilemma to resolve for future broadcasts.
Driving in the dark during a very bad storm is scary, especially since you’re unable to see anything, including the tornado. That news crew was very lucky.
This was scary. We joke about Texas weather, but this was literally nothing we’ve ever seen. Not Mother Nature at all. Prayers to my fellows Texans impacted by this. Taxes strong! 💪 ❤️

I found myself in a rain wrapped tornado once. It was just like this, except I couldn't see a thing because the rain was coming down in sheets, so I had to pull over until it was over. I didn't know I was near a tornado until the next day went the news showed pictures of the outdoor movie screen it took down. The drive-in closed after that, and they built a Walmart.
I appreciate real storm chasers more and more. Never ask television news people to drive in the weather, their producer-driven attention spans are way too short.
My DIL got caught in that near Katy. She is certain that it was a tornado. There was debris, hail, horizontal rain - the rain was driven completely through the door jams of her Jeep. She said there was a howling sound, and it was on her within a matter of moments.
I saw an 18 wheeler on the freeway. What the damn hell? In California, we dont have hurricanes but we tell high profile vehicles to pull over to get off the road when the gust approaches 50 mphs.
Put their view up instead of the radar. Geez do better ppl, put what they are seeing where we can actually have a decent picture of what's going on, not a tiny square in the corner.

I think the tornado cell phone warning was not enough time literally it all happen within minutes of that notification
Yeah that was crazy how quick it came
Lived in houston for 9 years so I have love for the city, hope everybody stays safe out there....sending love from florida ❤
Every time it rains like that there is always that one guy with the new Rain-X wiper blades that is going 70 mph.
That's ok just let him go, when the rain stops and the sun comes back out he will not be able to see anything because rain x will cause his windshield to glare in the sun. Get you some silicone wiper blades and run them on a dry windshield for a second or two. Now the rain will bead up like the rain x but without all the glare in the sunlight.
Get you some Bosch wipers. Bought mine 2 years ago and still don’t need to replace them yet.

Agree
Hey, thats some news I wanna see. You must not be from Houston. Good work! KPRC! Glad everyones safe!
I don’t think they expected a tornado. He said it just happened out of nowhere.
Sheet rain, hail, dark, and debris = tornado close
Don't forget the frequent lightning.
Especially hail and sudden cold wind.
Exactly, my same thought. That is the front end of a coming tornado.
No, that doesn't mean a tornado at all. Maybe you don't live anywhere that gets bad storms, so it's understandable to believe a little excess wind instantly means tornado, but all of these things are commonplace in simple strong thunderstorms.

Im probably the only one from Atlanta here. Idk why I got recommended this video but wish you all the best of luck 🤞
Was standing by for tornadoes in killer rain and wind for four days here. We actually got evacuation messages.
Bay Area Cali checkin in....I remember when a Tornado hit our Apt complex in Norcross when I lived in the ATL.
I’m from Atlanta too 😂
Same here. Go braves!
Here in North Georgia 2,5,11 & 46 are all top notch professional news stations
The "weather guy" in the studio needs to be replaced. He's clueless.
He’s been doing this longer than most of us have been alive.
@eh2139 he also lives in Houston. This is not his normal.
Sadly, the weatherman could not be taught and they had to put him down 😔
This is going to be one of the most violent storms we have ever lived through here in Houston, I seen hurricanes that have never even behaved in this manner.
I was off of 290. Definitely some scary stuff.
That actually looks pretty tame compared to what you see in the midwest every week.
Me too. 290 and fry road was wild

Reminds me of that nasty storm we had back in 2016, the hail was baseball size. Neighborhood looked like a war zone afterward
I'm so old, I remember when Frank Billingsly arrived. Dude's been solid for a long time.
I lived in Katy, TX for 15 years, and I don't miss these crazy storms.

Back off the news anchor! He's a 💎 for Houstonian's! Ancient but priceless! ❤
What a crazy idea! Why would you have people in the middle of a tornado reporting? Even Stormchasers have better sense..
gotta get those clicks, same as it ever was
They weren’t expecting it you goofball
Are you stupid?
@@odoylerules4503do you not know what storm chasers do?
And they were completely fine
I live in southeastern Louisiana and this weather came straight over me as well
I actually got caught up in this. The worst thing about this was people speeding during this weather.. so aggravating.
Welcome to Houston drivers, where the red light on a traffic signal is just a suggestion.

No boomerang they were not sent out to find a tornado. They were covering the story and the tornado was there.

No different from news crews everywhere there are storms. 7 million people in this city so don’t go accusing us all of being backwoods dumb.
