Hey, Reed. Have been a fan of your extreme weather intercepts and reports since the days of Discovery Channel's classic _Storm Chasers_ series. Cool to see you in California, where we (comparatively) don't get much extreme weather. Also great to see you working with AccuWeather, which has long been my main go-to for good-quality weather forecasts and info. Subscribed; keep up the good work. 🌪
The one GOOD THING about this event is that it's refilling the Salton Sea with a ton of water. Research the doom caused if the Salton Sea entirely dries up. Any rain pouring into there is a great thing.
On the flip side, the 1,300,000 acre feet of water per year simply evaporates. Further yet, the agricultural pollution continues to flow steadily into this endorheic (no outlet) rift lake. Sadly, a single rainstorm is a mere drop in the proverbial bucket.
@@virginiainla8085 yeah but its not like it can be returned to the past. Theres a ton of nasty chemicals in there that if it fully evaporates, turns to dust and will blow all over SoCal and we will all have to breathe this cancerous cloud. They should rejuvenate it with an inlet and outlet then let it flush over time. Prolly never happen.
A magnificent piece of work. Timmer's skill in identifying where the rain would fall and then knowing where to look for the effects on the ground of the rainfall is just amazing. One itty bitty complaint, though. I live in San Diego and he mispelled Cuyamaca Peak and Jacumba is pronounced "Hacumba". The J is soft. Anyway, "ja" in Kumeyaay means "water". Okay, enough commentating, I'm going to watch this video again.
Wow! Knowledgeable, easy to understand your tracking, amazing terrain knowledge and video, your weather, flooding, camera and editing skills wasted not a second of the storm. A true one man show, better than any network channel. Thank you for this, I was able to follow and understand everything every step of the way.
As someone who lives in San Diego I am sure weather like this is a "Tuesday in Florida" minus the terrain and mountains obviously. Glad you came out here for this once in 25 year event!
Is there no mountains in fl? I dont think I could live anywhere that is just flat, no mountains that change the landscape and go go hike would definitely make me depressed
It’s the same in Costal and South Texas. The rain I’m seeing in this video seems like just normal rain. 2 weeks ago we got 7”-10” in a two day period and were like, gives us more. We need to fill the water shed and our St. Augustine is loving it. Time to sharpen our mower blades. LOL
@@californiainrofilac9567 the highest point in Florida is 345 feet with most of it being exactly at sea level. For reference the highest point in California is 14,494 feet with over 46 mountains over 10,000 feet.
Great video of San Diego's day with Tropical Storm Kay. I can't believe you drove right by my house Reed. As for your question as to where the water was flowing to in Jacumba.... The water would continue across, what used to be a farm (the flat area), into boundary creek and then into Carrizo Creek which runs into the Carrizo Gorge. Eventually, if the water flowed far enough it would merge into the flow you showed headed for the Salton Sea. I know the storm was your focus but you missed the natural hot spring in Jacumba.
You are the best!!! You are both a teacher and a storm chaser :) I was able to teach to my 5 year old son, about storms and flash floods through your videos. Your channel is a Crown Jewel to learn about nature and why we should respect it and not go against it. Thank you very much for posting your videos.
I have always wondered what happened to Reed. I would watch him on the weather channel chasing tornadoes in the Midwest. And the other guy that used to chase with him I have no idea what happened to him. But anyway I’m glad I found him. Good work Reed.
Such a beautiful area. Great editing from Brian and Reed thank you for taking us to this storm capturing the beauty and danger. I’m glad you chase these flash floods because many people don’t take them serious. Never stop chasing!
Reed, thank you for coming to my area of Ca (Newport Beach). No one else would. You have my appreciation and respect. The boarder is just 85 miles south. Be safe
I watched this on my non-smart TV, so I could not leave a comment. But I can leave a comment on my iPad. This was an excellent flash flood Chaser! I am a native San Diegan, And know not to pitch my tent In a dry wash. But I have never seen Flash flooding in the desert like that. It was amazing! Thank you so much!
Greetings from Western Australia. That happens when it rains here, too. That was really great the way you explained it with all the maps and everything.
Undocumented floodwaters crossing the border! Hurricane Kathleen washed out I-8 Devil's Canyon lower most bridge East Bound in 1976 just west of Ocotillo at the uppermost part of the alluvial fan. Only the west bound lanes survived that hurricane event. For a few months only 2 way traffic there. Another hurricane destroyed the shrimp fishing fleet parked at San Felipe, filled the little bay with sediment somewhere around 1967. Witnessed the aftermath of both of these events. Great video!
I was driving that morning from Calexico to San Diego. When I got to the area of Jacumba, that is when the rain started pouring down really hard. Good thing I was out of the flash flooding area by then. On my way back to Calexico that same evening, I was amazed by how much flooding I seen on the way. I have been driving this route for years, this is the first time I have ever seen water flowing down Meyer Creek!
As I professional pilot and having a keen interest in meteorology, weather systems and fronts, it would be amazing to have a atmospheric science course with this PhD/ meteorologist. Lots of enthusiasm!
Many years ago, in Maine, severe rain washed out roads (we were on the coast). A guy and his wife in pickup truck tried driving through water on a road, got swept into the marsh - the man drowned, and i think the wife was rescued. It was terrifying, as it does not usually happen there. Be safe y'all and resist that temptation to drive through the raging waters across roads.
You pick up bad habits, like doing 75 in the rain. I got slowed by an out-of-stater doing 45 and , after cussing him out, realized he was the smart one.
Same goes for up here near the Delta, Stockton, Sacramento, etc. We just don't get that much rain. So people don't understand hydroplaning and visibility issues. Hope everyone's safe and that the burn scars didn't pollute too much. 🍀✌️😎
Hi Can you confirm that's the same border wall that's always been there? At least since the early 90's? It looks the same. I know they began extending the parts that needed more wall on the rough terrain and made much needed repairs or replaced sections between 2010-2018 or so because congress allocated funds to repair and extend it. But it was never replaced correct?
@@HRTsAFyre my family has lived here for 41 years and there has been many additions and repairs my grandfather took pictures wish I could find them ,now people come around the other side and many don't make it especially in summer
@@HRTsAFyre All new border wall from San Diego to Yuma. It has helped alot from the smugglers who use to cross and trash peoples property all over the imperial valley
@@anthonynolan1885 thanks that's what I needed to know. Because that money for the border wall was allocated by congress during the Obama administration. And extentions, replacements and repairs went on past Trumps term. Why do they say it's an open border? It isn't. I've been going to Mexico since the mid 70's thru TJ and that border has never been open. It takes long hours to get through the line entering the USA. In the early 90's I went to Baja through the other border past Ocotillo when I picked up some land in San Felipe. The desert is unforgiving through there. I feel sorry for those that get past the wall somehow but don't survive the desert.
This is by far the best cover of what happens in our area. I am a resident of De Anza Springs in Jacumba. Your explanation has really helped me to understand what is happening out here. Hilary recently gave us plenty of rain. But it was when the rain stopped that the water in our wash reached life threatening capacity. Also we had a non stop lightning event that lasted for hours on the first night. I grew up in Florida and have experience with such things. This had to have been some kind of record. I posted on a you tube video for friends but other than that saw no coverage of this. Thank you for reporting with such integrity, innovative thinking and helpful knowledge.
I love your style! Great coverage, very comprehensive.... add it all up and I have no doubt you're saving lives. Not to mention easing anxieties. Thank you!
Excellent well done video. good dramatic music, love the pop-ups on the lower right with information. interesting presentation and live shots. so well done. You really brought this to Life for me. I’m captivated. subscribed thank you so much.❤️
This is a super well made video! I don't like driving when I can hardly see in that kind of pouring rain! Thank you for all the information, and views, stay safe!
REED, wow you're a long way from home. I was surprised to see that you were in SoCal yesterday which is my neck of the woods kinda of cause I live in Orange County, and we get our weather alerts from NWS San Diego. I'm so used to seeing you chase tornadoes on TH-cam channel and also on Ryan Hall Y'all's TH-cam channel as part of the Y'all Team. You are one of the VERY BEST weather information people to watch online because you not only give the forecast but you also explain what's going on too. In addition, you're one heck of a Storm Chaser who has escaped the grim reaper more than once during the process of covering a natural disaster. May God bless you and your family and friends, and may He keep you and your family and friends safe from harm's way. ✌️❤️🙏
The rain coming down as you were driving reminded me of the thunderstorms in Johannesburg, RSA! Oh, they were amazing beautiful but he amount of rain that fell in 60-90 minutes would turn roads in to rivers!
Super excited to see you out here in San Diego. My wife and I watch your stuff all the time and being able to know exactly where you are in this video brings a weird sense of realism. I've ridden my motorcycle extensively out in that area and know it went. Insane amount of water. Do you think we could see the potential of a named storm hitting San Diego Directly? Water Temps were in the 80s at Scripps Pier in La Jolla. It would really impact our area because people who live here have zero idea what to expect.
I have been in flash floods in San Diego that put me neck deep in under a minute. These are very common occurrences and they can catch you off guard if you are under blue skies and the mountains of on the horizon are catching a big storm...
Never thought I'd see Reed Timmer in my neck of the woods. And on a small hurricane during the off season that just so happened to come close to the county. Edit: we expected more rain.
Crazy seeing you in san diego! Lived there 20 years b4 becoming a part of the exodus out of there. Get to experience many storms in Ohio now. And that false radar signature south of the border...I'm all too familiar with it. Its there most of the time, even with no rain. I've always wondered what it could be.
Reed, I’m familiar with that “reflection” of 15” (which is a false reading). It’s a weird spot. Last time I drove by, there were many earthmovers, etc at that location.
I would like to thank you for your coverage and I salute you for you courage to do so. I am from Toronto, and I have survived the Tornado that hit my town last May. Trust me, I have never ever seen such a thing in my entire life, I felt that it was the end of the world. I pray for you guys🙏
Hi read I did not know you traveled to California also I have followed you for a little while now I am fascinated with tornadoes especially and I was surprised to see you here in San Diego County Diego county which is where I live, you are fantastic keep up the great work and number one be safe!
Thanks for exceptional coverage of how the storm hit the very southern part of California! Can you please extend the amount of time the description boxes show? I can only get through about half of what was written before the description is gone.
New to San Diego? Monsoon rain always does that. Every year I would be blind with my wipers on high driving home to El Cajon and always flash floods in the desert.
What amazing timing on behalf of mother nature, massive burn backed by good rainfall should initiate a massive germination, be interesting to see an update a month from now. 👍
The Meyers creek flow was cool. Wish I`d chased the storm instead of sitting around Encinitas. Two minor complaints would be the nervous narration and the pronunciation of Jacumba. Great coverage, great storm!
The effort that goes into these videos you create is incredible. I appreciate how you explain things throughout the videos and put yourself in dangerous situations to educate the public about the dangers of the flash floods.
THX FOR THIS VID! I WINTERED FOUR YEARS IN CAMPO CALIFORNIA WORKING WITH THE RAILROAD MUSEUM AND TRUCK MUSEUM!! I HOPE ALL MY FRIENDS THERE ARE OK! HAVE SEEN SOME OF THESE AREAS! I IMAGINE LOTTA WATER COMING DOWN CARRIZO GORGE!!
Mr. Timmer, I am curious (having lived in Phoenix most of my life I know how precious water is for the desert). What was the level of the Salton Sea b4 Kay & how is it now, given how bad the drought's been?
A a kid, I remember Kathleen in September 1976. It came ashore in northern Baja & headed north over the mountains & deserts of Southern California. It caused significant flooding in the mountains & deserts. It pounded Mount San Gorgonio with over 14 inches of rain. A tropical storm did come ashore in Los Angeles, County in 1939 with significant flooding in coastal Southern California.

That's where the Lithium deposits are. Our future power source for all vehicles.

Informative, indeed ! Thanks Reed !
Been a fan for many years. Not sure when you earned your PHD but congratulations on getting it.
Hello Reed glad you are back !!.
happy to find out that the water returned to quench a dryed out river bed
Amazing coverage! Thank you for your video
Wish I could see the bloom. There's nothing like the desert right after a rain.
Exactly
Very True
Reed, I love your enthusiam!
We've had many flash floods over the Cameron Pass burn scar here in Northern Colorado this summer. It's taken several lives. Be safe!! Don't drown!
Nice work ! you covered this storm well! It seems the storm was the worst out in the hottest areas out on the edge. Much needed purge.
This was very informative! You can see the passion the reporter has for weather. Great career to get into I think

We needed fresh water down in the area and it will help over all the Salton 🌊 Sea and helps to cool things off. Hopefully 🙏
Wow! That was amazing footage.
Just wanted to say Awesome job! Real reporting and you ain't even flinch! Keep it up Bro! You were like, "Flood? Bring it on!"
Great stuff Reed! Keep up the great work you do!...Thank You!
A a kid, I remember Kathleen in September 1976. It came ashore in northern Baja & headed north over the mountains & deserts of Southern California. It caused significant flooding in the mountains & deserts. It pounded Mount San Gorgonio with over 14 inches of rain. A tropical storm did come ashore in Los Angeles, County in 1939 with significant flooding in coastal Southern California.
Wow did you live in Ocotillo?
Looks like typical weather for us here in Ky as right now we’re getting heavy rains and pop up thunderstorms.
Thank you for your amazing teaching in these vids. My compliments to the editor chef!!
