Scenes from Florence, AL including stuck vehicles and snow covered streets.
#ALWX #icestorm2021 #ice #LSM
Florence is where I am. I appreciate you showing my town because I'm not going to get out on the roads to have a look like some dummies and end up in a big ol ditch. 😂
That's actually a wise choice.
In places where winter or snow is not a day to day encounter, it is understandable that people are not exactly prepared for it.
Refraining urself from going out not properly equipped, is helping by not putting urself at risk of becoming just another number in the statistics of accidents or even fatalities
That's a smart idea for those that are not used to driving in it or has never driven in it... 🙏
Good decision.
@@Regina0964 I'm definitely not used to it. When I was young (20) we had a big ol ice storm here.1978? My husband and I took turns pulling each other on sled behind his car , a Datsun Fairlady, and we had a blast! We had no problems at all. They say God looks after drunks and fools. We weren't drunk lol. Now I refuse to drive or ride in this kinda mess and I wish everyone else feels like this.
🤣🤣🤣
P.S.A. Start saving for A Generator............EVERBODY!!!
For what? My state does just fine during winter.
@@BlackFire69 Or Don't, rely on others to provide for your future welfare.
@@BlackFire69 it’s called “being prepared when shenanigans ensure.” Useful when there are natural disasters and you need power.
As someone who dealt with this in Texas a generator is on the list of things to buy!
Yes. Buy a generator.
Stay warm out there from Wisconsin.
Wisconsin here also.. hi, the weather is looking better for us after that frigid snap we had.
Stay safe everyone over there from uk
The real problem is that you have started 2020 over again, it's 2021 now! This is why we can't have nice things!
👍👍😆😆😆
You're hilarious
The "sign" wasn't that it was 2020 that was gonna be bad but the 2020s
da13thsun is telling you about the signs and giving you warnings, but who listens.
I live in corpus christi tx...its awsome weather for us for a change...
Just need good snow tires. We live this on a daily in Canada 🇨🇦
All right! Set of good winter tires (spiked or not) much cheaper theh car"s body repair.
Many of us have two sets of tires, or wheels even in southern Russia on the Black sea coast.
Snow tires here may dry rot before you need them again. They are not practical. When snow is coming people try to get home before it gets bad. Those people probably couldn’t leave work early or were in med field jobs where they can’t stay home.
All you need is all year round tires. But they should have been putting salt on your roads immediately. Everyone would be able to drive no problem, no slipping.
Welcome to the Great White South!!
I'm currently stuck on I20 west bound miles marker 80 in Louisiana..... this blows.
Stay safe and watch out for idiot drivers.
Be safe
Its not that we can't drive its the simple fact that the south knew the storms were coming but yet were completely unprepared and yet we still have to deliver some crap somewhere lol
Looks like y’all are getting what we’ve been getting for most of the week here in Texas. We’re still really cold, I’ve got a bout 10” at my house. Stay warm, stay safe.
@Michael Davis if they drove on snow covered roads every Winter like we do in Wisconsin. Don't put the blame on them, would if they had to work And can't take off, or if someone is seriously hurt or sick or in labor.. come on man give them some slack..
It's the same here in Little Rock, AR.
I haven't drove since before the snow, Saturday. (During the freezing sleet)
Dardanelle here. We got shelled with snow pretty hard to. I've been able to CAREFULLY get out and about, because I drive a 4 wheel drive SUV. Handles like a dream in this mess, but that don't mean I'm gonna take any long trips right now, lol!
I just can’t believe that no one has put salt on the roads. I haven’t seen one salt truck in any of these videos. And 4x4 is great but no car stops on ice. 4 wheel is great on snow.
@@Faith-un7ns yes 4x4 is great in snow! Mine handles like a dream in this stuff.
@@johnw2026 I had a 4 wheel for 19 years and loved it. I will be getting another one. I’m from Canada so we get a lot of snow sometimes.
@@Faith-un7ns sometimes? Or every stinkin year? 😆
My old green Ford in the video, me and my buddy drove over there to check out the "hill of challenge" as we named it... LOL
It was nice meeting you by the way, glad I found your video.
4 New snow tyres, a backup home generator and several bags of Ice Melt. No Problem. I live like this every night and day, all winter. Every winter. Stay safe and Warm all ya’ll... From The Northeast Kingdom of these United States👍☃️👍
Live just over the line in TN. We have the same crap. Raised in the Texas Panhandle and use to driving in this. However I don't drive in it here unless I absolutely have to. The people around here get freaked out driving in it.... My moto...Stock up and hunker down. Stay off the roads people 🙄🙄🙄
Yep cars end up in weird places when it snows
Those abandoned cars in the ditch look post apocalyptic. As a Connecticut resident used to crazy winters hoping everyone is staying safe and warm down there in the south. Feeling so bad for the Texans without power or water....
It the south, and them poor drivers learned the hard way about an inch of snow...
Actually it's four inches.
Lucky they didn’t get a foot or two. I’m surprised that I’m not seeing salt trucks. Those roads should have been salted the first day. Some neighbouring city should have brought salt.
The year 2021😠 is not good There will be many natural disasters happening on the earth, you prepare more food and drink, no one knows what will happen
That's scary and true.
Event 201 Simulation for the masses isn't over by a long shot!!! Stock up food and water, stay safe & warm!!!
You know we have 24/7 world wide weather coverage. Only the juicy stuff gets good coverage. 40 years ago we only got local weather and thats
all that mattered. I'm saying is this information overload?
There is a planetary system now within our Solar System, bringing devastation. The ancients referred to it as the Destroyer; also known as Nibiru.
They show the roads. But don't show any area where with any kids. The kids are loving this. Adults,, Not so much.. lol
It's hard to enjoy it when you have no heat or water.
Exactly....would love to go outside & make snow angels or a snowman but with no heat&no power....yikes not really you will never warm up..or get sick...pneumonia..cold or flu
Cute town
I can guarantee that none of those vehicles in the ditch had all-weather or snow tires on them.
I keep all weather tires on my vehicle and so do many people but snow tires in the south is a waste of money. Snow is a rare thing here. People should keep their butts at home in snow weather.
Salt trucks should have been out putting salt on the roads since the first day. None of these accidents would have happened. They need to get salt out there right away. Salt melts the ice in minutes.
Wow, a fire station without shoveling the driveway... can’t believe it...
Typical Canadian day with the exception you don't have -20 degree weather and 60 mile an hour winds. Mind you, most of us don't slide off road either
Most Americans don’t give a shit either.
Ok we get it, Canada has very bad winters. Nobody cares. I’ve seen a million of these comments
I live near Florence but more mountain side. I have been stuck for more than 5 days in my house. We got 1 foot of snow over thick ice. Today, I and my 2 sons had to spend more than 3 hours to clean up all the snow and ice on our driveway. Now, finally, I can drive to cities. It was just like lockdown by snow and ice.
Im from Florence and do miss it at all
Wow! This happened a whole year ago?
Your the best ♥️
Speed limit is 30 and there are 3 cars in the ditch...
They probably thought they could go 30 on a slick incline.
I miss Florence..
UK never seen alot of snow like this or texas. If up north than yea but by me nah.
Keep wrapped up and warm as possible. Praying 🙏🙏🙏
i got stuck three times that storm XD been in florance 10 years and havnt saw anything like that in maybe 7
Did you ever call a survivalist or prepper crazy?
Still do.
@@mikesampson3467 it is ok, you are just not very smart. ;)
@@mknone40 if you know they are preppers then they are just braggerts who will not have their items long when the shtf. So yeah they are crazy...and dumb.
Didn't stop me from getting out and having fun. 4x4.
Funny because not to far in Birmingham Alabama i passed thru on the interstate 59 on February 19th 2021 and it was dry and clear and I was coming from Knoxville....went all the way to New Orleans and not a problem. 45-50 degrees except the closer to the Gulf coast temps dropped to about 37.....still relatively warm seeming I came from -20s in Nebraska
Lord someone teach them to drive .....oh it snow and ice I’ll slow down to 65.
I never seen you this early!
I am actually first
Hey congratulations 🎖👊🏅
I can see that the snow or ice is melting. If a new cold front comes in, that will mean that that wet roadways will be like driving on black ice, and that is when the roads are most deadly! People need to keep this in mind because when the wet highways freeze that's when the black ice is there! Driving on those roads could be most deadly at that time!!
Don’t they sell tire chains in this area? Common sense, a front wheel drive car with chains is safer and more capable than any 4x4.
No, they don't have such here. This kind of event isn't even once a decade. It might be once or twice in a century!
In a town that averages five inches of snow a year, nobody is really going to own chains.
Chains? Hell no.
Well since you know so much you would know that they might see this kind of weather once in their lifetime MAYBE. So as for tire chains ...No Mr. Know-it all they don't sell those in this area
@@michellecook7586 Remember that when these asshats get a freak heat wave this summer and they are dying in Their houses. Ask them if they sell air conditioners in Yankee land.
Just another day around here
Turn on your headlights!!!!! Drive slow!!!! Make sure you can stop for a red light- tap the brakes and try stopping ( no other cars behind you) to see how long it takes to stop so you don't kill someone today!!!!! 2 hands on the wheel to control your car- imagine driving like a professional/ race car driver!!!! Clear ALL the snow from your car before driving, make sure to check your exhaust for packed snow and clear it first!!
Da cars in da ditch is maybe a block from where I live. I lived in fort wayne Indiana when I was younger & I hated da winter up North being from da South I NEVER GOT USE TO DA COLD & SNOW
And that's why my ass stayed in the crib the whole week 😂. Might've costed me two floaters but well worth it. My peeps had the courage to drive to Savannah TN. Nope I stayed my ass in MS and didn't drive through Florence at all 😂
I stayed in the house for a week..did not lose power..wow..now if it was in the 60's with a blue sky that would be another story..I lose power often when that happens
Calm after the storm.
And not one plow truck anywhere. Got to pocket that tax money I guess !!!
No reason to have a snow plow here. 9 out of 10 years it would sit in the garage.
Its snow. Just snow. Not exactly the end of the world as some think.
I'm an Indiana girl, of 70, 🤔 WHY DON'T YOU PEOPLE STAY HOME???
The cars that got stuck in the ditches, were on their way to walmart to get milk.
What's the flag with the red x ?
I believe that's the Alabama State flag
The white flag with the red X is the Alabama state flag
@@michellecook7586
Thank you for letting me know, it's quite unusual.
@@mlcochran78
Go Alabama!
Stay safe everyone please 🥶
Yeah heavy snow catch an edge and in you go and no winter tires or 4x4 just stay home.
bad out there 2021 stated good then truned danerous
Amazon, uPS, Fed-ex and all delivery companies should invest in snow mobiles or get that drone delivery system up and going.
I wonder how much snow pickwick dam got? That looks bad.
Of course, everyone is at home, but there always has to be someone in their truck out riding, and no using their common sense, if any exists
Also, the same goes for those people who slid of the road,and into the ditch. Stay home and stay safe!!
Is there a tow truck in town to get these vehicles back on the road?? I guess I don’t understand why it’s no longer snowing & people aren’t digging their cars out? Just wondering.
Because with wind chill it's like -25 degrees...Alabama isn't use to those tempertures
Probably icy too!
@@michellecook7586 I love Alabama and am praying for everyone to be safe and wise if you're not experienced on this types of roads, living in Wisconsin as soon as we're 16 you go driving in it and white knuckling until you learn.. I did and I'm very coutious in this kind of weather.. I hate ice more, snow is nothing to me. I drove once in 15 inches of snow on the roads, just having the side of the road lead me. Kind of like the song by Carrie underwood Jesus take the wheel..🙏🙏 praying for everyone to be safe.
should have half track to travel lol
A little bit Winter. Stay safe. Spring time is coming.
@Sandi R Hello sandi. Greetings from Germany. Here was it freezing cold for two weeks with over -20 Grad Celsius. 30 cm - 50 cm Snow and Trains didn't drive and Tracks didn't move on Autobahn. They must hooked on by THW ( technical help organisation ). And now it's getting warmer up to 20 Grad Celsius and the Birds are singing and sun is shining. Why they have in Texas not enough electrical power ? The electrical power grid is in USA very old. Here in Germany we have do the power lines under the earth, there is it save and can't broken. Stay safe and i hope other people became power back. This with broken pipes is a disaster. Much work for the plumpers.
Welcome to what we deal with in northern michigan every day every day and we don't shut down life goes on man up little baby's .
people use to buy snow tires
.. "Hey, where are all those NASCAR drivers down there??" Well, to be fair, they don't get the opportunity very often.. to gain experience driving in the slippery stuff. Peace.
More fools alive @one time than ever in history
será que o país está congelando ?❄❄😱
Bob and Doug McKenzie to the rescue. Don't know who they are? Look them up on the internet
2:18 I know exactly where that is
Не могут с этим справиться,а если ударят настоящие морозы (-30) и снег до колена выпадает??:-((
LiVE STROMS dé là
Just a dusting
" Climate change" ha ha looking hot
@Roger Wilco Ha ha ha The CO2 Now make SNOW ?????
@Roger Wilco WHAT HAPPENED STUPID NOW THE Co2 MAKE SNOW
Dejaremos de sufrir algún día
Lo que dice la Biblia.apocalipsis o Revelación 21:3,4
Dios secara todas las lágrimas de ellos, y ya no habrá más muerte, ni llanto, ni lamento,ni dolor"
Que significa eso 🤔 para nosotros
Saber que Dios no es el causante de nuestros problemas ,es un alivio
Dios odia el dolor y la injusticia
A Dios le importa cada persona..
Pronto Dios eliminara el sufrimiento de cada ser humano. Mediante su Reino ..cuando Jesús estuvo acá en la tierra... enseñó a pedir por el Reino de Dios .Mateo 6:9,10
Busque en su propia Biblia...encontrará la repuesta
Wow them people really can't drive can they
global warming ?

¿? What I'm a little confused. I live in Wisconsin and know how bad roads get, been there done that . Be safe 🙏
