@cape6000jkg I've been studying storms for long enough to know from just watching the video that it's well over the 58mph severe threshold. Also, it was recorded by professional meteorologist equipment in my area of a gust of 102mph with sustained winds of 80mph.
Lived in Texas from 1997 to 2011. This is one of two storms I specifically recall. I remember where I was, and what I was doing when it hit, and I do mean HIT. I was sitting in my apartment after work on the computer when suddenly the whole building started to creak and groan. The tornado sirens hadn't gone off and everything was calm just before; no warning. Pretty much everyone knew somebody who needed new roofs or chimneys. It was a bad one. Edit: It's interesting all the people on here second guessing the poster with contracting wind speed estimates and claims of "microburst" or "downburst". We had doppler radar, meteorologists, and TV's in Texas ;) Just about everything the poster claims I recall being reported at the time, except I recall the straight line winds being reported at 90mph+.

I remember when I still lived in Mississippi when Hurricane Katrina hit my town and (as wrong as it sounds), I enjoyed every minute of it, the rain, the gusts, the sirens, the lightning, it was insane.
evidently he lost power so the UPS is beeping letting him know that its going to shut down soon. they beep like that until power is restored or the UPS battery dies completely.
Wow...thats a crazy storm. I remember we had a storm like that last summer and I remember the tree in our yard (about 3 times the size of that one in this video) was bending at like a 90 degree angle. Nice vid.
+E Gino They live in tornado alley so they've seen worse I can assume. This happens just about every year where we live. It's nothing to sneeze at, but don't go panicking. Nothing to be scared of except maybe losing the power for a few hours. Maybe some downed trees and power lines if it were strong enough.
Justin Castleberry Yeah tornadoes are bad here, such as the EF4 we had the day after Christmas in 2015 or 16. Along with a tornado outbreak in 2009 or 08. Texas is pretty odd weatherwise.

i love when this strong rain and wind happens, i love it
I experienced a straight line wind storm just last summer. I was at the pool and the announced that we had been put in a severe thunderstorm warning and they were closing the pool and we needed to get home and take shelter immediately. And I remembering looking and seeing a sky that was black as night off to the west. I checked the radar that’s when I knew we were going to have straight line winds. I knew because the storm bowed outward. And sure enough I was right cause just a few minutes after I got home it hit. Trees were down, power lines were snapped, signs were bent into weird shapes, and papers blew down the street. It even almost blew our grill right off our deck too and my dad ran out and grabbed it just seconds before it went tumbling down the deck steps. It was probably one of the scariest storms I have ever experienced. And that’s saying a lot considering I used to live in California.
Judging by the trees, the peak gusts are probably around 55-60 mph. We just had a severe thunderstorm come through in Toronto with a peak gust of 60 mph and the winds that looked as strong (if not stronger). However, your damage (that you described) would suggested that you got winds past 100 mph. Anyways, still a great storm, hope to see one like that here soon.
The random talk about food and stuff is hilarious. And interesting. Imagine living through a storm like this in the days when people didn't have brick houses. Or living through a storm like this in this day and age, still without a house. That's horrible to think of, but still: an amazing spectacle by Mother Nature!
I remember few severe storms here in england where winds gusted to 120mph at worst & left widespread damage, although its no where near the ferocity of the storms you guys get in the states with hurricanes & tornadoes
That's Texas for you. When it storms here, it FRICKING storms. I remember that storm very well. If memory serves me correct, I think winds were pretty much hitting the 60-80mph range through Tarrant/Denton/Johnson counties and reached 80-100 mph in Collin/Rockwall/Kaufman/Henderson. That was a very nasty Derecho event, but also very sweet.
You're so lucky. I have lived in Hawaii and now Miami and thunderstorm winds over 50mph (sans a hurricane) are incredibly rare, but happen maybe once every few years.
I'm a storm chaser and have been in hurricanes from Cat 1-4 and these winds gusts were very close to hurricane force. Actually, it was rather dangerous to be near those windows with 75 mph gusts. It would be easy to throw small debris through those windows.
Not a tornado, it's a downburst, cool air from the cumulonembus falls down like a coloumn of wind, the wind here is formed when this coloumn hits the land and expands alla around like an air explosion. A tornado it's quite different. 30 mins it's pretty rare though, but still this is a downburst.
Altough summer temps can be the same in both Canada and the US, the US has a never ending supply of moisture. Canada has no water warm enough to get such storms that often(the largest body of water is hudson bay with a water temp of 40F Max). The warmest water in Canada is 75F in some lakes.
We had something like that happen for just 10 minutes here in San Antonio in 2009. It was like in March. I was heading to Wal Mart and the storm just hit like hell, windy as hell, rain everywhere, power out for like 1 minute then it was gone
My area in southern wisconsin has had 2 of these this past summer (summer of 2010), and the first one had estimated winds of 75 MPH, and the second i unfortuantly missed because i was at school for band camp to get ready for playing for the labor day parade and football games, we had estimated winds of 115 MPH that one, all we heard was rain, our school was build so great we didnt hear anything but rain and thunder. I get outside, and theres trees and stuff down and little things everywhere
This here reminds me of exactly what I saw when the eye wall of Hurricane Erin slammed into Pensacola, FL in August of 1995. Hurricane Erin was a Cat 1. I think it was reclassified as a very low range cat 2 though. Regardless it had 95mph winds at landfall so. It definitely reminds me of that.
this viideo is intense. Looks very similar to what you would expect from a hurricane eyewall (except it lasts a bit longer and the winds reverse direction at some point). Probably up to strong TS/Cat. 1 force sustained winds (70-80mph) and gusts into the Cat. 2 range (96mph+) on this video. Very rare windspeeds for all but the very strongest thunderstorms.
a derecho hit houston one time and it had come down from colorado through OK and then turned south straight toward houston. we got lots of winds and hail but somehow the power only flickered once
About 50% of the homes in the area had fences blown down, a large percentage of homes with large areas of shingles ripped off, but nothing extremely major.
Scary! O_o In some springs and summers, we also have storms like that. But it take about 5 to 20 minutes only, reaching 100km/h or more than it. It depends if it's too warm and humidit. Temperature can be 35°C in a afternoon; but after the storm it reachs less than 20°C. Feel the Power of the Nature! hehehe Nice video! Thanks! From Goiânia, Brazil.
LOL my 02 Taurus SE had a good factory sound system. Just the ordinary speakers with an in dash factory CD player. Sounded good, better than the 99 Sable LS i had.
I had a similar storm like this. on June 17,2014(before my last day of school), I had two severe thunderstorms in a row. the second one was a strong one like this and we had a tornado. a small one. I live in Adams NY.
Awesome! Near white-out conditions! Gets pretty active around 4:42. I live near Pampa, TX. Not much as far as derechos but tornados there, out the gesso!
I had storm like that where I live, and it lifted a tree from the ground and landed it on top of my garage. Garage was damaged. It look like a nature made see saw.
Nevertheless, it's a great video. The storm chasing I do is primarly tropical based. Reminds me of tropical storm force rain bands usually about 100 miles from the center of a Cat 2 hurricane.
After reviewing the video once again, I think my original wind estimate might have been a bit too high. Based on what I am seeing upon a closer inspection, I would estimate sustained winds to be in the 50-65mph range with gusts to 75-95mph during this storm video. Still very high (and rare) speeds for a thunderstorm, but likely not as intense as I first believed. The amazing thing though is how long these winds lasted!
I used to live in southeast Texas for 3 years and it's where I experienced some of the worst weather I've ever seen, 1 funnel cloud, plenty of wall clouds, and many bow echoes and tropical storms. West coast is very calm compared to there.
Not knowing where you live, or if there was a tornado warning or not.. but seriously, I sh*t my pants when I see this outside in Southern Alberta Canada, but if I'm in Texas, or Oklahoma, or Kansas, etc.. I'd be huddled in my basement, or storm shelter.. if it's this bad outside, just when DO you head for safety? I'd be freakin if I was you! But you are so calm!
This looks like a microburst if it only lasted a half hour. Derechoes can last up to 1-3 days, and can be up to 500-1,000 miles long. They look the same but they are different depending on size.
Microbursts are very short lived. Derechos in 1 area do not last 1-3 days. Over the course of a day a Derecho can cover an entire region of the US (like lower midwest for example). They don't just sit in one area, they move along like any normal thunderstorm. You're confusing the info of Derecho impacts in a widespread area versus a local town or city experiencing one. Huge difference. Like the other day I had thunder and lightning, in Oregon they lasted hours yet in my town I only had one for an hour or less. And the person uploading the video didn't give any radar presentation of the storm that happened, thus neither of us can tell him if it really was a Derecho or not. I could look up the date and where it occurred and grab radar data. Pretty much the only thing that makes a storm a Derecho is it's massive size and wide swath of severe weather it produces.
Yea from the years 87 thru 95 i believe, they were the 24 Valve DOHC Yamaha engine. then the 1996 thru 1999 has the V8 Yamaha engine. I think its 3,4 not sure. But now theres a new SHO coming out. SHO stands for Super High Output.
Evil storm starved your tree to death! It couldn't get the nutrients it needed! Great footage btw. I have seen every single video of thunderstorm winds on youtube and this is among the best. Are winds this strong a rare event where you live?
Honestly, if you know how to drive stick you should get a Gen II. I convinced my mother to get one, and after we (we, as in ME) got it running, we lined up and we did a little impromtu race. My GIII was always slow (even after $12,000 invested, plus intake, exhaust, and a custom tune), and the GII's secondaries weren't opening right, but with me in the only fullblooded Yamaha... There was just no competition. Also, if you wanna know what happens to a V8 that burns oil, watch my videos.
damn!!! right about at 1:00 in the clip you can reaaly see a gust hitting hard. and i cant beleive someone was driving in that. i knw what its like to ride out one of those. i had a major low pressure system that lasted more that 24 hours i seriously though our house roof was going to pry up and i had two massive old ukaliptus (or how ever you spell it) in the back yard. it was in martinez, ca in 91' i believe with winds as high as 75-80mph.
Ok, I have looked at this video again and I have compared it to a few other videos, and my second wind speed estimate I gave 8 months ago was probably too low. Based on a better analysis, I think sustained winds were probably near 60-75mph with top gusts in the 85-105mph range. Definitely a nasty storm, and you are very lucky that it didn't last longer (like it would have had it been a hurricane).
89-95 had the 3.0 Yamaha V6 with sticks, 93-95 had optional automatics with a 3.2 V6, and lastly 96-99 had the mongrel semi-Yamaha 3.4 V8. Those mongrel bastards are EVIL!!!! I'm not expecting much from the new SHO however. 365 horses are no laughing matter, but they STILL left out the option of having 3 pedals...

I love videos of storm recorded from inside! I love that cozy "safe" feeling.
Hyacinth Htnicayh I love storms, but storms are so heavy there, I would feel safe in a bunker :p
1997 -1991
Ya definitely a macroburst
I’d feel safer if they were away from that glass a bit.
@@eschdaddy same bro he’s like right next to it
That's pretty intense. You did a great job keeping your head and holding the camera as steady as you did considering what was going on around you.
Excellent. This is by far the best storm footage on you you tube!
@cape6000jkg I've been studying storms for long enough to know from just watching the video that it's well over the 58mph severe threshold. Also, it was recorded by professional meteorologist equipment in my area of a gust of 102mph with sustained winds of 80mph.

Are you alive
Your food is ready. Cant you hear the damn oven?
evidently he lost power so the UPS is beeping letting him know that its going to shut down soon. they beep like that until power is restored or the UPS battery dies completely.

The upside is that you wouldn't need to water the yard for a while.
He is so calm, damn I would be scared

The sheer power of mother nature. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE IT!!!

100 mph to 110 mph winds 3:16
True, but if I was inside 60-65 mph, it would be still super-loud. Here, gusts to even 40 mph can be loud as hell.
Not a tornado, it's a downburst, cool air from the cumulonembus falls down like a coloumn of wind, the wind here is formed when this coloumn hits the land and expands alla around like an air explosion. A tornado it's quite different. 30 mins it's pretty rare though, but still this is a downburst.
i remember these when i lived in iowa. u see lightning, but the rain, hail and wind are so loud that u can't hear any thunder!
Altough summer temps can be the same in both Canada and the US, the US has a never ending supply of moisture. Canada has no water warm enough to get such storms that often(the largest body of water is hudson bay with a water temp of 40F Max).
The warmest water in Canada is 75F in some lakes.
Most of the times we get such a storm here in Belgium around the summer when it has been really warm.
I always love those days though XD
We had something like that happen for just 10 minutes here in San Antonio in 2009. It was like in March. I was heading to Wal Mart and the storm just hit like hell, windy as hell, rain everywhere, power out for like 1 minute then it was gone

mhmm This the best weather footage i've seen all month good job bro and that was one hell of a storm
No, it was a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) beeping to let you know the power went out and it is on battery power.
This here reminds me of exactly what I saw when the eye wall of Hurricane Erin slammed into Pensacola, FL in August of 1995. Hurricane Erin was a Cat 1. I think it was reclassified as a very low range cat 2 though. Regardless it had 95mph winds at landfall so. It definitely reminds me of that.
Woah that little tree sure did hold up nicely lol
this viideo is intense. Looks very similar to what you would expect from a hurricane eyewall (except it lasts a bit longer and the winds reverse direction at some point). Probably up to strong TS/Cat. 1 force sustained winds (70-80mph) and gusts into the Cat. 2 range (96mph+) on this video. Very rare windspeeds for all but the very strongest thunderstorms.
This has better quality than my mom's 2020 Prius
Benjamin hey my friend i love you videos man
I went to Texas and the state had some of the worst storms of the decade.
a derecho hit houston one time and it had come down from colorado through OK and then turned south straight toward houston. we got lots of winds and hail but somehow the power only flickered once
About 50% of the homes in the area had fences blown down, a large percentage of homes with large areas of shingles ripped off, but nothing extremely major.
I would have loved the wind, the rain and the thunder...the lightening would have had me bawling like a baby though :)
I live in Texas in a mobile home so this is especially terrifying to me.
Scary! O_o In some springs and summers, we also have storms like that. But it take about 5 to 20 minutes only, reaching 100km/h or more than it. It depends if it's too warm and humidit.

Thanks!

I love this kind of weather!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! >:-D (especially since derechos are relatively infrequent where i live!!!!)
In my opinion, I think looking out the window during a severe storm is calming for me, but its kinda scary to me
But derechos like this scares me, because of how much the winds pick up
LOL my 02 Taurus SE had a good factory sound system. Just the ordinary speakers with an in dash factory CD player. Sounded good, better than the 99 Sable LS i had.
Damn, you got sustained, near hurricane force winds there, ace.
OMFG ITS SO BEAUTIFUL I LOVE THIS WEATHER! i wish i could die in that place.
Yeah i remember that we do not get rain like that a lot but when do is around the spring time and very rare in Summer.
I had a similar storm like this. on June 17,2014(before my last day of school), I had two severe thunderstorms in a row. the second one was a strong one like this and we had a tornado. a small one. I live in Adams NY.
What were all the flashes? Tranformers blowing?
Great Video looks like you guys got a ton of rain in a short time
wow,now that is one insane rainstorm.
there were lots of storms that month
and they were awesome!
my power went off for a day too
Wtf! What a storm! I've never seen that!
Awesome! Near white-out conditions! Gets pretty active around 4:42. I live near Pampa, TX. Not much as far as derechos but tornados there, out the gesso!
This is one situation where I would keep the weather radio (or the news) going at all times
I did enjoy that. Amazing. Very powerful.
I had storm like that where I live, and it lifted a tree from the ground and landed it on top of my garage. Garage was damaged. It look like a nature made see saw.
DAMN!!!! where I live we have huge T-storms. Big enough to cause a tornado but our storms is NOTHING compared to this
It's too bad your battery was low! Would have liked to of seen most or all of that storm, that was intense with the redish lightning.
Nevertheless, it's a great video. The storm chasing I do is primarly tropical based. Reminds me of tropical storm force rain bands usually about 100 miles from the center of a Cat 2 hurricane.
After reviewing the video once again, I think my original wind estimate might have been a bit too high.

mate i live rite by the sea and as soon as it starts raining hard our sky tv totally cuts out. gotta love the british weather
I used to live in southeast Texas for 3 years and it's where I experienced some of the worst weather I've ever seen, 1 funnel cloud, plenty of wall clouds, and many bow echoes and tropical storms. West coast is very calm compared to there.
Not knowing where you live, or if there was a tornado warning or not.. but seriously, I sh*t my pants when I see this outside in Southern Alberta Canada, but if I'm in Texas, or Oklahoma, or Kansas, etc.. I'd be huddled in my basement, or storm shelter.. if it's this bad outside, just when DO you head for safety? I'd be freakin if I was you! But you are so calm!
thanks for explaining what derecho means
U dont get that here in uk but i wish it would happen. I love wild weather!
I love this as a soundtrack... at about a minute, it's so peaceful and loud and then... "OH. SHIT"
haha
The sustained winds are around 50mph. And gust up to 80mph by the looks of it
looks like fun, wish we had one of those
This looks like a microburst if it only lasted a half hour. Derechoes can last up to 1-3 days, and can be up to 500-1,000 miles long. They look the same but they are different depending on size.
Microbursts are very short lived. Derechos in 1 area do not last 1-3 days. Over the course of a day a Derecho can cover an entire region of the US (like lower midwest for example). They don't just sit in one area, they move along like any normal thunderstorm.
You're confusing the info of Derecho impacts in a widespread area versus a local town or city experiencing one. Huge difference. Like the other day I had thunder and lightning, in Oregon they lasted hours yet in my town I only had one for an hour or less.
And the person uploading the video didn't give any radar presentation of the storm that happened, thus neither of us can tell him if it really was a Derecho or not. I could look up the date and where it occurred and grab radar data. Pretty much the only thing that makes a storm a Derecho is it's massive size and wide swath of severe weather it produces.
Yea from the years 87 thru 95 i believe, they were the 24 Valve DOHC Yamaha engine. then the 1996 thru 1999 has the V8 Yamaha engine. I think its 3,4 not sure. But now theres a new SHO coming out. SHO stands for Super High Output.
Evil storm starved your tree to death! It couldn't get the nutrients it needed!
Great footage btw. I have seen every single video of thunderstorm winds on youtube and this is among the best. Are winds this strong a rare event where you live?
netook8 never claimed that we do. It was just mentioned that we get storms LIKE this in Canada too.
Imagine going outside with surf boards and flying a kite or sliding on a board.
Honestly, if you know how to drive stick you should get a Gen II. I convinced my mother to get one, and after we (we, as in ME) got it running, we lined up and we did a little impromtu race. My GIII was always slow (even after $12,000 invested, plus intake, exhaust, and a custom tune), and the GII's secondaries weren't opening right, but with me in the only fullblooded Yamaha... There was just no competition. Also, if you wanna know what happens to a V8 that burns oil, watch my videos.
Good God...how much rain fell with that storm? That's one of the heaviest storm footages I have seen
isn't it amazing how it can be so windy outside...a window will break ,trees will fall...etc. but, ur car doesn't move? lol.
i'm suprised that there wasnt any tornados in that kind of weather
Amazing. How much rain did you get in that storm?
I would have that tree braced up. It looks like a very young tree.
upside down type - haha, nice!
I remember that!! What a storm
damn!!! right about at 1:00 in the clip you can reaaly see a gust hitting hard. and i cant beleive someone was driving in that. i knw what its like to ride out one of those. i had a major low pressure system that lasted more that 24 hours i seriously though our house roof was going to pry up and i had two massive old ukaliptus (or how ever you spell it) in the back yard. it was in martinez, ca in 91' i believe with winds as high as 75-80mph.
Epic drift at 4:39.. lol
Great video :o
oh ok ty for clearing that up :)
Tornado's are nothing to laugh at, I was in a super-market one morning a tornado touch down and it was bad cars flipped over and trees uprooted
Ok, I have looked at this video again and I have compared it to a few other videos, and my second wind speed estimate I gave 8 months ago was probably too low. Based on a better analysis, I think sustained winds were probably near 60-75mph with top gusts in the 85-105mph range. Definitely a nasty storm, and you are very lucky that it didn't last longer (like it would have had it been a hurricane).
What's that beeping every minute or so, like at 3:43? But that's mad!! Highest wind here in England i've had is only about 35mph I think.
nasty!! was the worst of the storm ended by the time you stoped the video?
It seems like a long storm, it must of been a large microburst
89-95 had the 3.0 Yamaha V6 with sticks, 93-95 had optional automatics with a 3.2 V6, and lastly 96-99 had the mongrel semi-Yamaha 3.4 V8. Those mongrel bastards are EVIL!!!! I'm not expecting much from the new SHO however. 365 horses are no laughing matter, but they STILL left out the option of having 3 pedals...
I love severe thunder storms its cool listening to the rain seeing the trees move and sway hate hail lightning though
What gale force was that? did u guys had the lights on was it a powercut? wen did dis happen wat l8 April 2007?
We hardly have any thunderstorms here in arizona. they only come in june, july, august. the rest is just snow during winter and lots of it.
