    As a guy who's been in s few major hurricanes, I enjoy watching the footage, but I know the mixed emotions that come with being in such a massive storm. Excitement, fear, sadness and devastation. You're more than a storm chaser, your experience is valuable enough to help others while also documenting these amazing forces of nature.

    Another intense video from a historic storm! Congratulations for this historical benchmark on hurricane chasing. As the first storm chaser you got footage inside the RMW of a cat.5 hurricane. And this by your third cat.5 in your career. The intensity difference between first and the second half is crazy! Lucky that this storm weakened significantly before it's landfall, but 145 knots are nuclear enough.

      +arizonatsunami It's expected. The TVs are attached to the wall, not the ceiling, and they have a much smaller surface area for the wind to act on than the roof. If the walls remain intact, it's common for stuff like that to happen. It happens in tornadoes too.

      Actually, PATRICIA was stronger, according to official data. HAIYAN's max 1-min sustained wind was estimated at 170 knots. PATRICIA's was way higher, at 185 knots (and that was actually measured by recon). However, PATRICIA weakened before landfall, so HAIYAN was stronger *at landfall*.

      Even the day after the storm there was lots of wildlife about. On a four hour hike to and from the beach, I only saw one dead bird and one very little javelina that was clearly separated from its group.
      One group that took a hit were the hummingbirds. These guys with their high metabolism have to feed pretty constantly. The day after the storm there weren't many flowers and they were staying close to the few ornamental plants that still had flowers. The next day they were clearly weak as you could go over and pick them up. Since then, I haven't seen any.
      A friend over at the biological foundation mentioned that he hadn't seen any deer and to think of it, I haven't either. We're hoping that they pulled through as well as the big cats here (jaguars and pumas) that feed on them.

    For folks who don't quite get it yet....THIS is what forecasters warn about when they give out dire warnings regarding Category 4 and 5 Hurricanes.
    Like you literally cannot comprehend how dangerous these storms are, and how risky it is to stay....until you see firsthand how truly terrifyingly powerful they are and the damage they leave in their wake

    Thank you so much for sharing this remarkable video with us of this historic event. The raw footage seen through your lens , as well as your narrative made me feel like I was there experiencing it ! Thank you for helping those people take proper refuge in your room. Looking at the damage that their room sustained the next morning , who knows what might of happened to them. May I ask , how far was this hotel from the coast? It seemed to be in a pretty populated area. I am amazed and that a cat 5 made landfall in what appears to be pretty humble surroundings , and I am so happy that no one had lost their lives. Well done on an A+ intercept. Question... Did the towns people realize what was coming , or did they think it was just going to be a "bad storm?"

    We live in Naples. My son is taking an online high school Spanish class. Recent assignment was on weather and natural disasters in this Spanish class. He had to write a report (in Spanish, yes) about a natural disaster that has *recently* struck a country where the dominant language is Spanish. We just came through Irma here in Naples (as you know, considering you were across from LaMoraga while it came through), so I did not think my 13-year-old would be interested AT ALL in writing about hurricanes.
    Wrong.
    He asked me, "Mom!? Did you see iCyclone's video?" I asked, "Which one?" He said, "Hurricane Patricia."
    My mouth fell open and I said, "Welllll, actually, yeaaaaa, I have. Why?" He said, "Defoliar." All I could do was laugh and say, "You figured out 'defoliate' in Spanish, huh?"
    I thought it was pretty amazing that you say at the beginning of the video that you think the interior room will be safer, and then you have the receipts.

    Very intense, Josh, Erik & others. Kudos. I have a place in Cabo that got fairly wrecked by Odille the year before. Glad I wasn't there. In 2009 I was there when cat 5 hurricane John was poised to be a direct hit. John stalled at the zero hour and fell back, but I remember a day of extreme stress trying to get a flight out. Ironically I scored the best surf of my life the day before I became a quivering bowl of stress. To purposely chase that is beyond me. To each his own. Much respect.

  • @PanamanianMan317
    @PanamanianMan317 8 лет назад +1

    The reasons why Haiyan's landfall was a lot more serious than Patricia was due to underestimation of Haiyan's strength, poor preparation therefore, and also Haiyan moved somewhat slower; not to mention Haiyan's landfalling strength was way higher. Mexican's apparently had way better preparation and the fast passage avoided more serious impact.

    • @iCyclone
      @iCyclone  8 лет назад +1

      +Jorge Santiago Actually, some of this is not correct. HAIYAN's intensity was not underestimated. Everyone knew it was one of the strongest cyclones in history. Also, HAIYAN moved very fast at landfall-- over 20 knots-- whereas PATRICIA moved much slower-- at only 12 knots. The main reason HAIYAN caused more damage: it hit a large city (Tacloban City), whereas PATRICIA missed large cities (Manzanillo and Puerto Vallarta). I agree with you about one thing: people were not prepared for HAIYAN. That is totally true.

    • @bwsullender
      @bwsullender 8 лет назад +1

      +Jorge Santiago Tacloban was very close to the sea and there was a significant storm surge with Haiyan. Water wasn't much of an issue where Patricia made landfall. I think its been estimated that 85 to 90% of deaths associated with hurricanes/typhoons are water-related (storm surge, flooding, and landslides).
      Factors responsible for the low number of deaths with Patricia are (1) the government identified and evacuated particularly vulnerable pueblos like Chamela; (2) in 2011 Hurricane Jova came through this same area and people were aware of the seriousness of Patricia; (3) people stayed with friends and family who had particularly sturdy homes; and (4) unlike wood frame houses in the US where the stability of the entire house is compromised when the roof is lost, loss of roofs here generally did not result in the collapse of the building.

Plus u tend to show what the locals are facing and going through.. do u plan to chase Delta in Mexico or in lousiana
