    I live in PC, I was at my grandparents as the house was ripped apart around us, there was only a closet left standing. Our town is still in horrible condition. The insurance companies screwed everyone over. Most people didn't get a single penny. This video does it no justice, i was standing in the living room when the roof flew away, i was just looking up at this wall of pure Hatred. 2 years later and we're still recovering. Its kinda weird seeing these videos and going "Holy shit, i was there, i survived this"

      ​@@xr6ladjust so you know, hurricanes like this one are incredibly rare. Only 4 category 5 hurricanes are known to have hit the US mainland since record keeping began in the mid 1800s. The previous hurricane of this caliber was Andrew in 1992. Additionally, the area where this one hit had never seen anything stronger than a category 3, and building codes in the area only called for structures to survive a category 4. Most people do have hurricane kits, but a pantry full of supplies doesn't go very far when the destruction is so bad that the pantry itself is destroyed (along with the rest of the house). Unfortunately, and for reasons I still don't understand, the scale of the destruction left behind by this storm was dramatically under reported. Reporters usually tend to blow things out of proportion, but I think in this case many of them were shell shocked and just wanted to get out of the area as fast as possible. Long story short, it is very difficult to be prepared for a storm of this magnitude

Smaller than Beryl was Marco. Pretty sure that is the correct name, 2005? I think Marco, although small, was a strong storm. I'll read up on that one again.

    • @storm12weather
      @storm12weather 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You can actually pretty accurately estimate the total energy expended by a hurricane based on the amount of water vapor that is rising off the ocean to condense into clouds. The change of state of water from a gas to a liquid releases a considerate amount of latent heat energy, even in small quantities. But when considering the total amount of water condensing in a hurricane, the average energy release is accepted at between 5.0x10^14 joules/sec and 6.0x10^14 joules/sec. At that rate, a hurricane will release more energy than is contained in our entire nuclear arsenal in a single day. As incredible as the wind energy of a hurricane is, it makes up less than 1% of the total energy released by a hurricane. The vast majority is actually heat.

    @Coowallsky 5 ปีที่แล้ว +95

    Having lived in parts of the country that have hurricanes and tornadoes, I got to see both up close and personal.
    The differences between a tornado and a hurricane are...
    With a hurricane, you have days of advance warning and they can track it for hours before it hits. With tornadoes, you're lucky if you have 2 hours notice.
    Tornadoes will slam you down harder than a hurricane and then be on their way. Hurricanes will keep knocking you down every time you get up for hours.
    Rain often precedes a tornado but typically ebbs about the time the funnel is in your close vicinity. Hurricanes bring the water non-stop and from all directions.
    Tornadoes don't always collapse buildings from a distance away. Hurricanes will keep hammering until they topple the building.
    Bottom line, both bring their own destructive dynamic and should never be underestimated for their potential to ruin the lives of people and destruction of property.

    Having watched several of the videos documenting the force of this hurricane, it amazes me that there is anything left standing. Anyone building in hurricane prone or tornado prone areas should be required to watch the footage of what 100 plus mph winds look like, so they don't complain about building codes, and also go and extra step in adding additional structural supports where possible. The power is absolutely
    incredible. I am not far east of there, only 5 miles inland, and did not evacuate, but thanks to these videos shared I certainly will in the future.

      The thing is, is that we don't actually know the difference between 200mph winds in a tornado and 200MPH winds in a hurricane. In a tornado it's much more complex, moving directions, incredible updraft lower pressure etc. So comparing them is really comparing apples to oranges. We don't know if the windspeed estimates on the EF scale are accurate either. It's just an estimation.

People talk about the homes and buildings destroyed, but the heartbreaking thing to see was no tree over 10ft. Tall remained... Not a leaf on a tree, nothing but bare wasteland..

It was like being caught in a giant tornado for 3 hours, I thought it was going to be my end. The aftermath felt like the apocalypse, power lines and trees covered the roads and highways. We didn't have water or power for over a month. The entire community mourned, but everyone came together and I was amazed of all the outside help we got. Tears still fill my eyes when I think about this. I pray for the Bahama survivors of Hurricane Dorian, their situation is much worse.

      I personally do not believe that it will be upgraded to category 5 because the most severe damage at Mexico Beach was a result of both storm surge and devastating winds. The advisory update they issued giving it 155 mph winds came out a short time before official landfall (I believe they issue advisory updates every hour when it is near land, so that would have made it half an hour before landfall). But you never know, I didn't think they'd downgrade El Reno to an EF3! And whatever happens, it truly was a devastating, monster storm.

    From being in one of these storms , I can say that the thing you can’t fully get from a video is the sound the wind makes . The sound of it going into all the cracks and holes and pushing on everything. Especially if you’re in a hotel you can hear it down and through the hallways .
