    My truck only goes 68, if u at the truck stop why not go inside the brick build. Every truck stop I have stop at is a brick building. I’m not leaving the truck stop. I be watching these videos a lot to know what to do if I come across bad weather out there on I80 driving in my car and18 wheeler.

      I like Tornado's! I've been chasing them for a while..
      I have 4 videos of them 2 with 90mph winds. Something draws me to them
      I only would leave or go inside if I had to.i was safe. Thanks🙂

    A semi is a broad sided vehicle , top heavy, and when empty can be blown over on a windy day. Truck Stop bathroom or walk-in cooler are better options than trying to flee in semi.

    • @graymikep64

      Depends on what you hauling! Nit top heavy at all, fact a lot of my loads are low!!
      So it's nice like that..
      Yeah I know doesn't take much 15 mph gusts kick you are around empty or full..
      Thanks

    Looks like a wall cloud, which is capable of producing a tornado. It appears to be moving left to right and not toward the truck stop. Good catch on the storm.

      There is a siren warning about a tornado coming. You can hear it.

    • @IowaSheepdog
      @IowaSheepdog 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@carolgrier7774 In our state, Iowa, the warning sirens will go off with the NOAA issuance of a severe thunderstorm warning, regardless of a confirmed funnel or rotation, but if it has the potential for damaging winds such as our Derecho in 2020. It may be the same in Minnesota.

    Lol. I appreciate this. I'm not a trucker, nor meteorologist, But I have studied weather. I am a certified storm spotter. You saw a "wall cloud ". This spawns tornadoes. Actually, I would find shelter in the truck stop. Anywhere in there is safer than in your truck. If a tornado dropped on that lot. You might have 100+ dead truckers. Get in the building!🤘🙏

    • @graymikep64

      Yeah I'm a junkie for this stuff! I love it.
      If I only knew people did this for a living? I would be one.
      I love atmospheric conditions!!
      Out of frame it did seem to touch down.
      I have 4 videos that I got on tape, crude but I saw..
      I thank you for telling me that
      Be safe doing your thing..

    Excellent video. It wasn't coming for you, but it's still scary! Glad it passed on by. I don't know if or how this applies to semis, but the worst place to be caught in a tornado is in your car.

      I've been close to Hurricane Sandy when it came in a few years ago and I've had a few tornados in the vicinity but never this close. I figure I put my top bunk down, draw the curtains and put my mattress upright to form like a cave between the back wall and the front and pad and hunker down like in a burrito.
      If the truck gets picked up and tossed I'd be padded and you also want to be away from the windshield with the matress in-between so glass and debris doesn't hit. It's not something that ever gets talked about in orientation.
      I was also a schoolbus driver in Texas and there was no briefing on any of that either. I just told my kids to kneel on the floor facing the seat and to cover their heads with their jackets or book bags. You just don't want to be cut by glass.
      I would then try to evacuate to the next sturdy building, but I used to drive a country route.
      Thankfully nothing ever happened, but my kids were amazing.
      I miss them 😢 they all ha e kids of their own now 😆
