If you are looking at a tornado and you think its sitting still, that means it is headed directly at you. Time to run. Lol
1:06
Contrary to popular belief, lightning will strike multiple times and in the same spot. If there’s enough ionization built up after an initial strike, there will be multiple strikes until the ionization is spent. Being localized, the lightning (electricity) will opt for the path of least resistance, i.e. the last “road” taken, which still contains positively charged ions.
I, my kids, and grandkids love storms. My husband and I have watched so many excellent storms together. Thank you for the video.
An under-reported American recreational activity is standing at a door or window to watch the storm roll in. Always love watching these with you! Peace …
It is definitely one of my recreational activities lol
When a hurricane came over my area of long island about 40 or so years ago, i chose to stay home, as i was dumb. One brother decided to look out for me. My mom, other brother and sis went to a shelter in the city. Although i was braindead enough to stay home, a cute dog who was roaming the street was glad i did, as i rescued him in time before the heaviest winds ripped apart a large section of our area, plunging half the town into darkness for weeks. Our house was on a grid that was restored that same day. the damage on our block, including my backyard was extreme. Even the pool exploded because of the pressure.
8:11 the building was finally demolished last week. The building was deemed too damaged to repair. Capitol One abandoned the building as a result of Hurricane Laura and it remained vacant until it was demolished.
1:28 It will always find the shortest path to ground. So, if that pole is the only or best way to reach the ground in that area, it's going to hit it multiple times. Usually there's many good grounding points. It's pretty odd to see it strike that many times in one spot.
Edit: Path of least resistance. Not physically shortest distance. To be clear.
In South Carolina, you can purchase hurricane insurance, unless there is a tropical storm formed in Atlantic. You have to wait until storm is gone.
Hi Kabir, while tornadoes can produce incredible damage, even stripping the ground of pavement and tarmac, trees and buildings, hail storms can be far more damaging. Tornado damage is usually confined to a rather small area. Hail storms, however, cause widespread damage. Tens of thousands of roofs and cars can be affected. Hail not only breaks the glass, but leaves the rest of the car looking like a dozen carpenters hammered in the roof, trunk, and hood(roof, boot and bonnet)! It can cause thousands of dollars to fix your car, and many, many thousands to repair your house. I got caught in a bad hailstorm at Mayfest, an annual spring festival held in Fort Worth, Texas. The hail was marble sized, and left me with numerous bumps on my head and bruises on my hands, which I was trying to cover my head with, and on my shoulders. I later heard that four people died from it.
Since you are coming next spring, you might get lucky and see a tornado, we are in Tornado Alley, and spring is the beginning of tornado season!
hail can kill. My brother and I were caught in a BB- sized hail storm. They were very very painful. Hail bigger than BBs would leave a person bloodied at least.
considering a storm that hit near me had softball size hail, yeah it can be very big and very dangerous. that is 3.8 inches in diameter or 9.652cm and that isn't even the biggest hail that has fallen here.
BB size is considered sleet
@@dreamsrmadeof freezing rain is freezing rain. Tiny ice balls are sleet.
@@briankirchhoefer Sleet is different than hail. Not to mention you can't get sleet in the warmer months of the year, while you can get hail almost all year (except for the winter, usually). And they both form differently as well.
@@LordLOC yes exactly. Rain . freezing rain, hail, sleet and snow are all different . Ground temp and atmospheric temps in different layers determine what it is
Well Kabir, since you're curious. I'm in North Florida and in less than a year, Hurricane Idalia, a tornado in May, and Hurricane Debby all battered my home and property. Finally, our giant oak tree gave up and fell on the house. I was standing in the doorway taking video when it hit. Somehow, me and my pets all were unharmed. I'm looking at the huge hole in my ceiling now😂. But, finally, FEMA came through for me and sent some relief money. I guess third time's a charm. The roof was replaced a few days ago. Thank goodness because we just got rain all day from Francine. Woo hoo!😂❤
In many places our trees grow leaning or bent because of wind storms. Here along the great lakes, 50 mph winds are common in fall and winter.
I was taught to turn my car to the side in a hail storm because side windows are less expensive to replace, and you might save your windshield. I had to replace the roof and siding on my house due to hail damage. And I live on the US southern coast (not Florida.) We never know here. Tornadoes are the main issue here. I've been through severe ones with deaths and week long (or longer) power outages.
That's the first time that I have seen two tornadoes together like that
There have even been 3, even 4 at the same time AND with smaller vortices orbiting around some of them at the same time. Usually if they are close together, one might cut off the other so it weakens one or kills it outright, or they can merge together (it isn't as dramatic as in the Twister movies though) though I'm not sure if this has ever been caught on camera before.
I’ve heard if you can’t see the rotation of a tornado, it means it’s coming towards you.
*can't see the direction of movement
The rotation is what the winds are doing to form the cyclone. The fact that there is a cyclone means there is rotation.
Fun (not) story - my spouse and I planned a long-needed vacation to St. Augustine, Florida. I went there in elementary school, but hadn't been since. My spouse hadn't been there at all. We got a B&B room upon arrival, went out to the beach and dinner, as it was late. We then saw they offered a Ghost Tour. Great! Did that, lots of fun, tons of historical information. When we got back to the B&B, we were told we had to evacuate the next morning. Ah, Hurricane Ian. So we got up early, and turned inland to visit parents in Central Florida. The hurricane went almost right over us, the wind howling all night was terrifying. But worse was the next day, when everyone poked their heads out to see the damage. Water was EVERYWHERE. Flooded streets, trees down, lots of debris. So we didn't get our dream vacation, but spouse got to live through a hurricane, which was a first for him!
Yes, you can get insurance for tornadoes, hurricanes, flooding, etc. It is pricy but most people who live in areas that have frequent severe weather consider it worthwhile. When it comes to rain and other water getting in homes, lot of homes with basements get water in their basement from severe storms or melting snow - and they have sump pumps in their basement to pump the water out, and large fans they turn on to help things dry out.
We have wind constantly in the Texas Panhandle. If you look at all the treetops here, they point north. Not an exaggeration.
I live n S Kansas. Trees are the same here. Wichita means people of the south wind. Got that right!!
I was caught in a hailstorm coming home from work. I’d say just a slight size down from golf ball size. It reminded me of that Clint Eastwood movie, people shooting at him as he was driving by in a car. I’m glad I wasn’t far from home.
Thanks! Great one!
Thanks Lynn, glad you enjoyed it :)
@ 8.22 That's the Capital One Tower in Lake Charles LA. It was declared a total loss, and was imploded just last Saturday,
There is hurricane insurance but there have been so many storms that they’re not insuring as much anymore…so expensive. I live in Colorado and we’ve had hailstorms that did damage to our house and roof. We’ve paid for 3 new roofs over 35 years.
The biggest threat from water damage is mold. Once severe mold is found in buildings specialists must clean the building or tear it down and rebuild.
If a tornado looks to be stationary it’s unfortunately coming straight at you.
Here in the U.K. I lived through the 1987 hurricane I was only 7 it was very scary for a 7 year old 10 thousand off trees went down that year
Florida and Louisiana are nightmares for insurance. They're either extremely expensive or not available in certain areas.
a lot of places in Florida don't offer hurricane insurance any more.
It's not that they aren't offering hurricane insurance any more, it's they are pulling out of the state (or part of the state) completely due to hurricanes, severe weather events and litigation because of the laws in place.
Hey Kabir, I recently moved into my Van and got out of my apartment. I live in Florida btw. I couldn’t afford 3k a month rent anymore because of inflation. It was either stay there and not be able to afford food or hop in the van and make the best of it. It’s fully set up with a backup generator kitchen with a small stove, shower (which I don’t use unless I’m not near a planet fitness). It’s quite nice being able work remotely on a beach, however that weather was crazy and the van was rockin back and forth. I had to move during the storm to have the windshield facing the wind which wasn’t easy. I lost a side mirror but it wasn’t expensive to replace. This van was just used for weekend trips and such but now it’s my house on wheels. I’m now saving 3k a month. It’s good on gas unless I go long distance like over 200 miles. That’s not necessary though. I honestly didn’t even leave town, I just moved beachside. Hope your well my friend ❤
Inflation is quite low. You were being price gouged by a greedy landlord. I’m so sorry that happened. There is a lot of that since 2020 when they were forced to let people stay who were out of work. But you were fortunate to have your van as backup! Stay safe.❤️🐝🤗
@@deborahdanhauer8525 Inflation is low? What country are you in? My god I went to Walmart just this morning to get a dozen eggs. It was 7.99 for eggs. During the Trump administration I was paying 2.99 max for a dozen eggs. Biden ruined this countries economy. I mean why is a double burger at McDonald’s $3.00? It used to be $1.50. Why is gas over $4.00 in blue states? Cmon. I can’t find any place in the state that not in the ghetto for less that $1500 a month on rent and even then it’s an old pos complex. I just said to hell with it I’ll live in the sprinter van.
Inflation may have driven up the costs of an apartment somewhat, but it's way more likely you were being price gouged like crazy by the scumbag landlord. Inflation wouldn't be nearly as bad as it is right now, if it wasn't for companies literally raising prices beyond the inflation levels from the pandemic era. I mean look at that supermarket chain (I forgot which one, maybe Kroger's?) got caught raising prices well beyond inflation because they could get away with it. I'm sorry you had to make that choice regardless.
@@LordLOC I appreciate your concern unfortunately there’s a lot of us out here in my area doing the same thing. Like you said thank God for the van. It’s been pretty cool though because I’ve made a lot of new friends in my area living this life and we have meet ups, like van and car dweller bbqs. Everyone brings something and one girl has this inflatable movie screen with a projector. We all post up on the beach with a bonfire set up the screen and watch movies and cook out. It’s fun times. I honestly feel free from the system. One day I can be in one city the next if I want I can leave the state and be at the mountains rent free.
we now live in Katy TX and experienced The Derecho, a wall of brutal 100mph winds ahead of a thunder storm. It came through like a hurricane and blew our mounted gazebo into our pool. Our neighborhood looked like a bomb had gone off. We were lucky we lost a smallsection of fence, the gazebo and a small tree in front. The biggest issue with these things is insurance. AFter this happens a lot of people lost their insurance or tried to make claims and insurance went sky high. We are talking thoughsands a year wtih like a 7000 or 10,000 dollar deductable if you can get it. AS a homeowner you are caught between a rock and a hard place. Make a claim and you will probably be cancelled or at least premiums raised a lot. Don't makea claim and be victim to all the repair people that are price gauging.
8:10 That's over where I live, they demolished that building just a few days ago. Hurricane Laura was something else man.
Home insurance in the US is divided into two basic categories------a comprehensive home owner's policy, which includes fire , storm and pretty much all other sorts of damage except flood , which is a separate policy. Because we live on a small island , we have to carry both types of insurance . The homeowner's policy costs us about $4,000 per year and I have the new flood insurance bill lying here on my desk . Three years ago it was $ 500 per year , last year it was $ 780 , and now it is $1500.When we got hit by Hurricane Sandy in 2012 ,it was a big hassle sorting out between the two which category all of the different types of damage fell under which policy . Each company tried to claim that most of it was the responsibility of the other . In the end I got back $38,000 from the two insurance companies for about $150,000 of damage
I live on the MS Gulf Coast and we have to have storm insurance as part of our homeowners insurance. It is about $4k a year. Oh and the building you saw in Lake Charles with all the missing windows. It is in the process of being demolished.
Weather here in the Pacific Northwest is quite tranquil compared to these places.
I have had to walk through a rainstorm and wind like the ones in this video a few times. I don't drive. And I take public transportation to work Monday-Friday at a daycare. I live in Kentucky. It rains about half of the year. I got off the bus a few months ago about 5 minutes from my job. I got caught in a storm similar to the ones shown in the video. It was awful. I couldn't see because it was raining so hard. And the wind kept blowing the rain into my face. I had an umbrella. But that didn't help. I ended up being drenched in rain. I ended up stopping about 2 minutes after getting off the bus. I walked to a halfway house that I passed everyday. And stood on their porch while I waited for the rain to subside. One of the employees at the halfway house saw me. And let me come in and dry off. He gave me a towel and a change of clothes. He also gave me a brand new backpack. Since the one that I was wearing was drenched. He ended up giving me a ride to work. I was about a block and a half from work. But the storm made it impossible to see. Turns out that man was my assistant director's cousin.
Tornadoes have higher winds than hurricanes just not as long
First thing we do when a bad storm or hurricane is headed our way here in Texas we pick up and secure any loose items outside. It'll either end up hung up in our pasture fence or can come flying through a window.
You should see a blizzard Kabir. A complete white out. What kind of severe weather do you get in England?
My daughter had to park her car & walk the rest of the way home when Tropical Storm Frances came to Belle Chasse, Louisiana in 1998 as the street to get home was much lower than the highway. The winds were whipping at over 40 mph & blowing the rain sideways. Fortunately she had grown up walking where the wind never stops blowing, but she wouldn't ever recommend doing that again. At least when Hurricane Georges came calling right afterwards, she was "nope, not going out there".
They blew that building down!
Lightening hits the highest object. That's why people must get low to the ground when in an open field or on a golf course during a thunderstorm. Lightening loves hitting trees and that's why it is deadly to stand under trees during storms.
That Skyscraper in Louisiana was just demolished due to the damage.
11:16 monsters 😮
I have out in storms like these a couple of times. I was in a car once and on my bike the other time. You must fight to walk against the wind.
Most of my life in Florida. You know how when you drive in the rain you hydroplane and aren’t really in contact with the road? Add a hurricane gust and you involuntarily change lanes 😳
A lot of this footage was from the incredible derecho that slammed Iowa in 2021. The videos of that storm are crazy. That building with the broken windows was just brought down (demolished) (9-6-24).
Where I live in Tennessee tornado insurance is part of regular homeowners insurance. And we have a lot of tornadoes here in Dixie Alley. Flood insurance is a separate thing nationwide. Why that is I have no idea.
Big hail is very dangerous and can kill people and animals. Even small hail can break bones.🙁❤️🐝
8:24 the building was demolished not too long ago
Lightning strikes the highest object. That is why when there is lightning and you are in an open area, you never get under a tree.
Yes you can her hurricane insurance but it is so expensive that the average person can’t afford it. We live in Florida and it’s one reason we rent instead of buy at the moment.
A tornado came very close to my house years ago but I didn't see it because it was dark. The next day I went out to take pictures of a waffle house that was destroyed within walking distance of my house. In the US most houses are insured for storm damage.
The reality is that soon it's not going to matter where you are, there are going to be severe weather events affecting all of us. People should plan have to deal with whatever weather you usually get becoming far more extreme. For us in the UK we can expect dangerous heat waves in the summer, possibly colder winters, and more intense hurricanes and storms. We might be luckier than some when it comes to the extremes they were already dealing with (tornado alley, for example) but all weather is trending toward the extremes as a result of climate change. We're still not taking this threat seriously and we're still not even remotely prepared for these weather events - just ask the people of Texas.
7:22 You _do_ realize that the wind there is blowing _away_ from the ledge, right? He's not likely to fall off as long as the wind keeps blowing consistently.
It rained and 5 trees came down. Has not rained over a inch in MONTHS. HURRICANE hitting Gulf Thursday. Wonder how many more trees will come down this week?
3:10 That's the rear window of the car, not the windshield.
Yes, you can get insurance and yes, it's very expensive.
I dont know but my roof has got torn up twice this summer from them but me and people I know fixed it the best we could.
Y ou hurricane proof a house. It pays to build it properly. The same is true for tornadoes, fire and flood. Of course nature can still win, but you can cut the odds down a lot.
That’s why if it starts hailing you stop driving.
A hailstorm did $ 5:14 7,000 of damage to my Camry station wagon.
It’s called an act of god (except for flooding)
That flimsy bridge thing could only have been some bad temporary compromise construction, if that should have been a legit bridge then the mayor needs to get China'ed in a camp.
I think a couple of those were derechos.
12:12 I’m really getting tired of you asking if there’s such a thing as hurricane insurance. You always ask this and YES, there is hurricane insurance. Some states are deemed too risky to cover completely, but there is insurance.
lol
Take a breath. We all forget things.
You sound like an angry parent scolding a child. It’s his channel. You’re not in control. If you don’t like what he says, don’t watch. ❤️🐝🤗
@@deborahdanhauer8525 Where the fuck did I say I didn’t enjoy the videos? You’d think that people who have the world’s knowledge at their fingertips wouldn’t ask such questions.
@@dlinkster Well, you absolutely proved you are an angry troll. I don’t feed trolls, so I won’t answer you again.
