Hurricane Dorian brought me here
@@ralzvy Still without power in West Ashley S.C lol
Hurricane Laura for me
Hurricane Laura here
Dorian: What happens a 210mph?
🏚
I experienced Dorian in Freeport and not me but most of Grand Bahama and most of Abaco went through a lot including storm surge almost as high as pine trees!
Category 6
Your house is destroyed faster. That's what happens.
I’m here for hurricane isaias
Same I’m in Albany ny and it might hit us
I felt wind in Toronto becuase of Isaias
Zac&Mac damn that’s pretty far it went right around me in Albany by slammed through guilder land ny
Jim root Is my president Albany is far inland and it’s far up north where the water is cold so tropical systems are pretty weak by the time they get to ny, you’re fine kid.
eggrollsoup yes I know that and they are pretty weak that hurricane by the time it came near us us was just some rain and wind I live 5 minutes north of Albany near Troy
Hurricane Ida was a CAT 4 only 2 days ago
Normal day in Florida
My trailer house was made in 1962 and every tropical storm is nothing for it
Why don’t they build stone homes where hurricanes hit?
Just add some flex seal on it can fight the strongest hurricanse
Wrong my mobile home survived hurricane ike
Anyone form the gulf coast miss
You are in a hurricane cat 1,2,3&4 get out
Wow those strong winds didn't even blow him away, what a legend.

@@anasomer3607 Welp cat 4
Same and I'm watching all this from Australia
Same lol rip Louisiana
Well, do you exist?
It is simple concrete homes people...full concrete houses..but wait home depot, lows, timber companies, and insurances will not survive.. That the secret...im cuban and i lived in cuba until i was 15 in a concrete house that my grandfather made with his own hands we went thru many hurricanes and nothing happen..concrete that's the solution.
Yep,full concrete house is the solution and here in my country,houses with roof are truly rare.That would be a bad choice to buy non full concrete houses with roof if you stay in areas hit by hurricanes.
Ismel Escarpio yes sir concrete roof same story lol
Ismel Escarpio ah I’m thinking of Mexico rn
Yep my family moved from Cuba in the 60’s to Florida built a concrete house and during Hurricane Andrew in south Miami the house was completely fine
@Ozone Noooo, they aren't...
Florida here 1 like for pray
U mean Bahamas?
Barely even rained.
fordia didnt expreremce a hurricane scence 2018
Lol Florida people got yeeted
I feel like this is worst possible scenario for each category because I live in Florida and I’ve experienced cat 1-4 hurricanes. Here’s my experience as well as my friends’ experiences of living through hurricanes for years. From my experience living through each of those for 20 years, a tropical storm does nothing but cause strong winds and power outages. I guess there’s debris if there’s trash on the street but it’s like a bad thunderstorm nothing has ever happened to my house or anyone’s house that I know of (even poorly built) because of a tropical storm. There’s flooding sometimes but it’s in the street mainly and it’s not gonna reach your door or house usually unless they announce that there’s a lot of flooding going on (you’ll know beforehand). Category 1 & Category 2 just cause stronger winds but it’s most likely still not gonna impact your house. Category 3 can actually pick up heavy objects and send them flying around and trees can fall over. Category 4 I actually went outside one time during it and there’s a lot of stuff flying around. Large things flying everywhere. You’re house could be damaged. Category 5...if you stay home good luck. Definitely get the hell out of there I have never been home during a cat 5.
I was in Puerto Rico for hurricane María cat 4 , and I have never in my life seen such powerful winds my parents house it’s made of concrete and the whole house was shaking. Also I was in biloxi for hurricane sally cat 2 and the winds were very strong too and cause a lot of damage
Hurricane Laura brought me here
Hurricane laura 😻
Who else is here waiting on hurricane Laura 2020

Hurricane Laura brought me here. I live in Bolivar Peninsula 😨
Stop making homes from wood that’s why everything gets destroyed
It's Paper and gets ??????.
I know rightttt 🤦♀️
Then homes would be unaffordable for most.
Good simple video, wish it was twice as long so it could have more detail on wind damage examples and add general information on distance inland vs storm surge
I was In Puerto Rico when hurricane maría made landfall as a category 4 hurricane , with sustained winds of 155mph and gust 175 mph ! All I can say it’s that it was the worst experience that I ever had in my life! the Damage was insane everything was destroyed. I couldn’t imagine a cat 5
Irma didn’t do anything to my trailer
Your trailer is well built
I was driving through the Keys right after Irma, I saw a bunch of crushed trailers upside down on the side of road.
@Jäger Autism Perhaps your trailer was oriented parallel to the wind direction. Oh wait, but the wind direction changes. Oh I don't know
Mine either, and my trailer SUCKS
Some time between now and the year 2100 we will see a category 6 section . Due to rising global ocean temperatures.
And maybe a Category 7 as well.
As destructive as they are, hurricanes are such a fascinating creation of nature.
They are only destructive because people are stupid enough to live in their paths.
Praying for everyone in the line of Dorian. Now a Cat 5.
Thank u..😔🤕💔👀
It’s moving slowly... that’s a bad sign it could get even stronger
& then there's Dorian. In a league of it's own honestly. I'm from Florida. Been through some of the worst storms. Actually used to think hurricanes were kinda cool. Just an excuse to eat junk food, miss school & work, play board games. I don't know. But after seeing what this thing has done to the Bahamas I never even want to hear the word hurricane again. R.I.P to all those innocent lives lost 💔 God bless all those people who now have to rebuild from the ground up.
Im in louisanna and my grandma said i have a catergory 3 hurricane coming were i live soon and idk what to do
Or a 4 be safe
Its a category 4 now
It's a 4 now
almost to a 5 now.... stay safe!!!!
can we just appreciate the fact that a category 5 tornado winds arent even as strong as a ef3 tornado winds and how is he still standing
Hurrican MARO I THINK YEAH AND LAURA
I live in a single wide trailer. We were in the eye of Laura and it only messed up our skirting. Thank you lord.
Me in Louisiana having 3 hurricanes 😐
This is what happens when you try to copy the weather Channel vids like this
@GREEN ENERGY X5 Can you make any sense into this comment? Or you just think saying "This is what happens when you try to copy the weather Channel vids like this" would get you more likes rather than reasonable statements on other weather forecasters *can* in fact copy one-another, Regardless of whoever started what? I sure hope you are 18+ as this side of RUclips isn't for minors (children) who are clueless to what this is and or an upgrade in regards to.
You play fortnite lmao
I'm here because I accidentally clicked on this irrelevant video since I live Utah
@MonkeyWith72Magic What does living in The State of Utah have to do with this video??
My friend is names Dorian so I’m ready for the hurricane captions
“Dorian causes major trauma to the state of Florida”
Tip: you can loose your garage door in a category 4, happened to my neighbor. Wrecked everything inside the garage. Thankfully his house was okay but yes it made a mess.
Who staying for Ida?
Toughing it out from Houma, stay safe!
mememe im in Biloxi, MS
Hey Louisiana
Dorian: What happens a 210mph?
Hurricane laura category 5 2020 houston brought me here now I’m scare for my life :D
idk- :b same :D
Can I share this video on my page ?
Hurricane dorian?
Hurricane Katrina not cindy
And then there is Typhoon Haiyan (2013) which is equivalent to Category 5 during landfall but able to produce tsunami like storm surges. Why cat-5? Because there is no Category 6!
Category 6, should it ever exist, would mean total destruction of property that withstood the previous category.
There has and there was actually a category 7 the only cyclones were, typhoon ida 1958 202 mph winds, typhoon violet 1961 207 mph winds, typhoon Nancy 1961 with 215 mph winds, hurricane Patricia 2015 With 215 mph winds. There are only 4 tropical storms that only reached 200+ mph they are incredibly rare btw this isn’t wind gusts this is sustained winds wind gusts have short periods of above average wind and sustained winds are just average wind.
This was surprisingly entertaining. Thanks.
DID YOU JUST ASSUME MY STORY LINE
(I’m from Puerto Rico and I experienced Maria)
I remember when the G.U.N. Cold Front thwarted Hurricane Maria Robotnik's plan to decimate my area.
I love in South Carolina oof
Shanghai gets hit by cat 0-4 monthly lol😂😂😂
Most important stats on hurricanes is the size of the wind field and the intensity of the storm. Unfortunately, most of the time the media does not put this into perspective.
One of the reasons Katrina was so bad, was the size of the wind field. Hurricane force winds went out over 100 miles if memory serves, and tropical force winds further still. This generates a storm surge over a large region and is hardly surprising.
These storms are hardly more destructive than they were before "global warming." What has changed is that houses are being built in storm surge prone areas and with the available insurance temps people to build expensive homes in storm surge areas. In the last century people built houses that when they were flooded by storm surge it was much cheaper to patch them up than the mansions that are built today.
The Army Corps and the meteorolgists from the last century tried to encourage the government to ensure that people would not build in these areas.
There are really not more storms either, but there is new technology. A century ago the only means of detecting these hurricanes were by the radio communications of ships at sea. When the first weather satellites were launched, we finally had a means of surveillance of hurricanes in the Gulf and later in the Atlantic Basin. Nash Roberts was one of the first meterologists (Nash was the real deal) to discover with the new technology that the hurricanes deformed in their interaction with land.
The new satellites are now able to locate hurricanes anywhere in the Atlantic, and hurricanes that only annoyed dolphins are now given names. Also don't get rattled, we did not have a lot of detailed information on these storms until around 1900.
Our biggest problem today is still predicting landfall, intensity, and size. Hurricane Sally illustrates this perfectly. If the 72 hour forecasts had been correct New Orleans would be on the tail end of at least a cat 2 hurricane instead of Gulf Shores. Errors 72 hours out is measured in hundreds of miles. Even at 24 hours an error of 50 to 100 miles, especially on a small storm, might make you wonder why you evacuated (you did the right thing though!!!).
Just spray paint with line x all over the house
Hmmmmmm we thought that a category 5 will not be able to move cement walls,but it did, hurricane Maria did more than that,houses felt like they were shaking,in Puerto Rico,we were afraid that the houses wouldn't be able to stay strong enough,the sound of the winds seemed like a monster trying to enter, in the dark it is when you can feel the most fear you don't see anything ,you only hear the water the strong wind ,, and the cars , the hurricane turn them, the rivers left their cause, in the supermarkets there was no food the atm did not work it is horrible to go through something like this,2019 we are still recovering 🤷
I’m gonna be honest this is a bit exaggerated.
I wouldn’t take a hurricane too seriously unless it’s a high end category 3, I live in eastern Virginia and we got hurricane Isiais as a category 2 and I was looking forward to it and I sat on my porch and enjoyed the wind and rain.
Hurricanes can be fun.
MOTHER!
THE FAN IS GETTING STRONGER AND IS DESTROYING EVERYTHING IN MY ROOM!!!
Hurricane Douglas over here with category 3 to category 1 because of 7mph
I meant 75mph
:eyes:
Im watching this video cause hurricane douglas is going to be my first hurricane
I have a good idea. If you have to watch out for stuff hitting your car should park your car in your garage if you have one like this house. Or put your car on the side of the house that the storm is not on because then your house protects your car
Im from Flordia and dorian was to scared to come
157? NAH here in the philippines WE HAVE 200MPH WINDS THERES ALMOST NO RAIN! JUST WIND
Here during Delta category1.... fucked up my birthday celebration at beach💔😭
Kind of odd how I was recommended this video after the mid-outer wall of Hurricane Hanna passed through here.. 🤔
And still you live on the Gulf Coast. I hope you enjoy rebuilding.
Someone's taken notes from the amazing weather channel videos lol
Good thing aspen trees aren’t usually in the way of hurricanes, or they’d be falling like the London bridges
European homes would survive this easily
I’m here from hurricane Dorian
Tropical storm Fay and Isaias brought meh here
Im scared of hurricane eta, category 5, 2020
Thank you this was very helpful and informative 👍👍
Why do you build your homes out of such flimsy materials? It's baffling. Your government needs to get its head out of its ass.
Very good that. Quick, informative and well presented.
They only went to 155 mph Dorian is at 180 wtf
that's kmph
@@NotDanish no dorian was 180mph
Dorian is messed up
@istoleyo_sxndwich _ sustained winds were 185 and gusts reached 220
Cat 6 *hold my wing*
Shout out to the guy who was outside in a category 5 hurricane
Ahead of the next big one 👀
*ida*
Anyone else from Florida and think a category 1 just a thunderstorm ?
No. I was in Florida for Frances and Jeanne when they were hurricanes and they were not “just thunderstorms”. I remember going without power for days in each storm and having to go over a few blocks just to get to a place that did have power.
Hurricane Katrina Hit New Orleans
Kauai, HI. 🌴 can u say INIKI?
Kauai, HI. 🌴 can u say INIKI?
who else is about to be hit by hurricane Elsa?
Camille made landfall with 200 mph winds
Excellent Educational Update/Reminder!
Barometric pressure is a bigger determinant of damage than category and wind speed. Therefore a category. 3 hurricane with 888mb. Of pressure. Will do. As much or. More damage than any. Cat. 5. With 930mb
It's hurricane Katrina in 2005 🙄
Hey I live in a trailer and I’ve been threw harvey brah
my teacher put a lnik for us to watch
I have a good strong umbrella
A cat 1 is hitting my home in a few days
