  • September 28th, 2022. Monster Hurricane Ian pulverized into the SW Coast of Florida. This is our footage from E. Port Charlotte area.
    Once we went through the Nrn eyewall, the very edge of the massive eye came over us. We got in the car and went 7 miles SSE just past Punta Gorda to intercept the direct center of the eye. We then drove another 7 miles SSE to turn around where we got to shoot a time lapse transversing across the entire eye.
    Once we got back to E Port Charlotte, the W and SW eyewall came through and it was a BEAST!
    Thanks for watching and do what you can to help the people down there!
    Update** Hurricane Ian was found to make landfall as a high-end 150 mph Category 4 hurricane but briefly reached Category 5 status just offshore with max sustained winds at 160 mph.

      @@coldwindblowing Katrina made it to category 5 when it was out in the Gulf (175 mph winds I believe) but it weakened prior to landfall to a cat 3. So the winds over land were probably not quite as bad as in Ian, but because of all the time that Katrina spent pushing seawater at 175 mph on its way to the coast, it produced an incredible and unbelievably powerful storm surge of around 28 feet over Waveland, Mississippi. Ian's final peak storm surge value isn't official yet, but it seems that some portions of Fort Myers Beach may have gotten up to 15 feet of surge.

    • @HeyChickens
      @HeyChickens Год назад

      Miami didn't get the full brunt of Andrew, so the eyewall of Ian certainly could have been worse than what you got in Miami with Andrew. For Homestead area though, a completely different story. The damage left in that area, regardless of less strict building codes at that time, was absolutely astonishing. These yellow pines down here in s FL are incredibly strong, and even with the insane 150+ mph gusts with Ian, the vast majority of them only lost branches. After Andrew, there were entire pine forests mowed down and turned into toothpicks, snapped about halfway down the tree or at the trunk, 99 out of a 100. Yes building codes have helped tremendously to lessen the damage to structures from these major hurricanes since Andrew, but trees will always be trees. Andrew is, by wind damage signature left behind upon a significant square mile area, probably the second worst hurricane to ever hit US mainland, behind only the 1935 Labor day hurricane that hit the Keys with wind gusts probably over 240 mph. Some of Andrew's wind gusts in the Cutler Ridge area were estimated to have reached around 200 mph!!! That is completely unheard of over land here in the mainland US outside of tornadoes.

    Bob in Michigan GREAT VIDEO. Luckily I'm in Michigan, but I have a mobile home in Englewood that I spend time at in the winter. In 2004 (Hurricane Charlie) the winds were pretty bad but there was no damage to my mobile. Just small damage in my mobile home park. This hurricane was 6 or 7 times bigger and I have lots of damage to the mobile but it's still standing -- but some mobiles in my park got totally destroyed. Ian was just so big and slow moving that it was orders of magnitude worse and may set a new "standard" for Florida hurricanes -- with storm surge that hardly anyone had ever seen before and was the big factor in most of the 100+ deaths. And the rain it dumped (15 to 20 inches) as it went across the state caused enormous damage all the way to Daytona Beach.

    I'm so glad you captured the intensity of the 2nd half of the eyewall which really was strongest north of Punta Gorda into Port Charlotte, Arcadia, Englewood and North Port as your radar shows. Most storm chasers only broadcast the first half, which was indeed ferocious but not as bad and long lasting as that 2nd half. It was relentless. I was down the road off Peachland Blvd and Northview in Port Charlotte. Punta Gorda (as your radar indicated) was spared the fury of the intense winds although it was devastating nonetheless. Port Charlotte, Arcadia and North Port got the worst of that northern eyewall and rain. Notice how the same 1st half came back in on itself and became the 2nd half of the storm on the radar? Although we were spared the crazy storm surge, south of us in Cape Coral, Fort Myers and Naples got that incoming water which unfortunately destroyed many homes.

    I live in Punta Gorda and was going to ride out the storm at home but when I saw it was coming straight here and had grown to a massive storm like Charley on major steroids with the accompanying roid rage I decided at the last minute to evacuate. At 10:30 that morning I went up to Arcadia, across to the top of Lake O then down to Clewiston where I rode out the storm with several hundred others in the Walmart parking lot. Then after the last of the storm passed came home in the pitch black, arriving back at about 4 am. Almost missed the exit at 17 because of no lights anywhere. Glad I missed the worst. My house has some damage but it will be fine...eventually.

    I've been through some storms but not like this, the wind was relentless. That the awning over the gas pumps survived at all is astounding, I kept waiting for it to go. I've lost everything to a storm related flash flood years ago, in the end whether it's the wind, the water, fire, it's all devastating. But, as I learned from my own losses, the sun will rise again despite how strong the storm, the important thing is keeping people safe while the storm rages. Glad you are safe, and thanks for the amazing footage. (btw, and off-topic, but this just happened to be my birthday, 9-28, a terrible gift if you ask me)

    And that's the 'clean' side of the hurricane. But that side had ALL of the rain from Ian and those white out conditions were seriously brutal. Great dual graphics of the radar and video combo. I was on the 'dirty' side and the rain was minimal compared to this. Away from the coast 12 miles and we fared pretty well. Very heavy heartbreaking event for our area.

  • @stormchaser8576
    @stormchaser8576 Год назад +4

    Interesting differences in dynamics from the front half of the storm compared to the rear. I'm assuming as Ian was pushing into the cooler drier air to its north, the air injection caused some wind turbulence with height which made the front half gusty and drier than the catastrophic streamlined rear inflow from the 2nd half. What a ride that must of been. Great footage, but still can't come to close to experiencing it in real life. There's just something about the roar of a thousand pissed of fighter jets and feeling your lungs being deflated that adds a bit of a spice to the experience. If you know, you know...Take care all.

      Yes and that gulf loop current tends to steer hurricanes easterly as they rapidly intensify. It would take a cat 3 hitting western Cuba going north north west to strengthen and turn into Tampa. I knew it was turning into fort myers as if left Cuba going due north. Reed timmer and other meteorologists knew it too but those computer models sure didn’t.

      We noticed this during Michael as well. Precip is huge. If there is high precip rates, it allows the strong winds to mix down through to the surface. The back edge of Ian and Michael both had much heavier precip than the Ern and Nrn portions of the eyewalls, which is fascinating.
