- On the evening of 8/3/2024, a very strong thunderstorm and possible weak tornado passed through the area. The storm came very suddenly and brought very heavy rainfall and strong winds. The wind caused many trees to fall in the surrounding areas, blocking roadways and damaging power lines. The power failed at my residence, though the data lines remained connected.
This was the strongest storm we've had pass through the area since I've been living in this house. This was definitely not just a regular severe thunderstorm.
The storm was recorded on 4 different cameras and includes audio from the NOAA weather radio which received multiple EAS alerts before the storm.
I agree everyone should have a weather radio in their House
Thanks for letting me know.
I totally agree it's great for any weather enthusiast like myself🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Well since I live in Ohio. We’re experiencing an outage on the national weather service in Cleveland Ohio. And I think that the tornado caused the outage. And I have an alert works EAR-10, Midland WR-120, and a running snail MD-319.
Especially if you are in a mobile home because you are susceptible to destructive weather.
It's time for me to get one, my family and I just got rid of cable, so we don't get EAS on our tv's anymore, and my city only does amber alerts on mobile
experiencing a tornado for the first time must be terrifying....
Weather radios are definitely something everybody should have. Honestly I don't understand why the government doesn't have some program for people to get them for free.
I think the government first needs to work on improving the infrastructure of the transmitters.
There's several programs that give them away. Check with your local nws office for more info!
@@JordanUyou're not kidding. The new bill waiting to be signed will be devastating for weather reports and apps. Nobody will pay a subscription for forecasts or radar use. The little funding NWS gets is laughable really. Radar holes in tornado Alley, have local meteorologists calling their own shots. But at least they've been phasing out the 70s equipment.
They're good but not always accurate.
. Got that right!😂
I like how you’re always prepared for storms, tornadoes, etc.
It's important to be.
@@JordanU agreed
Jordan, hopefully someday if your budget allows you can get a whole house generator installed that way it's easier on you during power failures. My old house in Michigan had a whole house generator that came with the place. Oh it worked good during the 2003 blackout. Here in Florida i also have a whole house generator. 63hz won't really hurt anything it's still within that +/- 5 percent tolerance. Heck my line voltage sometimes goes near 123 and drops down to like 110 or so depending on load on the grid etc. Also i noticed you got the Midland WR120 weather radio i had one myself until a lightning strike took it out. I've upgraded to the WR400 which I like 100 times more. All my weather radios now are WR400s by midland. I like having the NOAA band along with AM/FM and they make a great alarm clock/clock radio.
You said you had a power outage in 2003 when did it happen date month number of year?
@@KevinLyons-gn7eu the big blackout on August 14th 2003. look up on google the 2003 blackout. it took out several states a few areas in Canada. I was only like 12 and a half when it happened.
The lights don't go out often enough around here to justify the cost. It's rare we get this type of weather. The WR120 is very basic but it's inexpensive and reliable -- that's all I need.
@@JordanU oh i hear you and please get rid of that suicide cord for the generator. you really should put a interlock kit on the breaker panel with a proper generator hook up outside. I also notice your breaker panel is getting a bit full. Time to add a sub panel for more circuits. I would hate for something to happen to you dude. I know you said you know what you are doing but still accidents happen and electricity is not something you wanna F*** with trust me.
As long as you can use the microwave for a nice midnight snack 🤣am I right?
We used to run our generator the same way, and did that for a good few decades up in northern new england. Recently though, we got a new breaker panel installed for more room, and decided to also install a generator outlet and interlock. Needless to say, I think its worth it to get one of those installed if possible. Makes it a whole lot easier
I'd like a better setup, but this is what I can afford for now.
Ironical I'm going through a pretty rough thunder storm around here as well, and I have a some footage uploading right now. Good thing a have a WB Noaa radio they do come in handy , be careful and I liked the video.
Thanks
So prepared, I love it! You are so meticulous, wish I could be more like that. I love storms, I really enjoyed this, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it.
I am glad that you and the fans and air conditioners and other vintage stuff have survived. I am glad I do not live in the extreme weather areas. Specifically, I live in California, so we don't have tornadoes and there aren't many thunderstorms here, but we do occasionally get a lot of wind. I don't like the fact that you are using the same type of plug on each end (male-to-male) to connect the generator to the house. Many people do that, and it really is not safe. I do like that you are taking precautions to prevent hazards though.
I think it is perfectly safe.
Everyone should definitely have one of these weather radios in their homes, an emergency radio to get local news and alerts as well. I got three alerts in one day and it was a bad storm but you got hit even harder. I bought one of these Midland radios back in March because of your channel and influence, so thanks, and I'm glad the power came on for you and didn't take days or weeks.
You're welcome.
That was some great video coverage of the Severe Weather as it came through, and, of your back up generator which is very handy to have during power outages. I also found this video to be educational as well.
Thanks
That was interesting. I rarely see actual severe weather ( except for lightning, that is really severe at times, a building was struck by lightning about a mile away from me years ago ) where I live for some reason, I have lived in the same county in Wisconsin all my life, so the 'storms' have almost always lacked severeness. Oddly enough a bit outside the city limits that is where the severe storms happen.
I switched out my carburetor on my generator and put on a 30 some thing dollar dual fuel carburetor to run on natural gas so I wouldn't need to have extra gas on hand and avoid needing a gas station.
There's very little severe weather around here besides thunderstorms. This was a once in a decade type of event.
I've thought about converting my generator to propane if possible. I have a large tank under the deck which would probably power it for quite some time.
For viewers who have Autisim just like me remember to turn the volume down when the weather alert goes off
Same way it does here in the TN valley. Clear one minute and then crazy severe storms move in.
Not good.
That wasn’t as bad as us we actually had a derencho storm that cause a tornado touchdown in downtown Houston with 100 mph winds what made the storm terrifying was the heavy rain and the sky going dark never lost power but only for a few minutes and then months after we ended up getting hit with a category 1 hurricane causing major damage And then we ended up losing power for 3 days.but honestly these seem crazy,lucky you have one of these radios I hope to get one of these one day for the next weather event.
Not good.
Absolutely 💯 great mind to be prepared like this man. I was watching and waiting for the severe storm but it never came lol.
Thanks for letting me know.
In oklahoma, we call this " below averagestorm "
Of course, but relative to what we typically get around here, it's off the charts.
What weather your having Jordan. Had a couple severe storms where I live recently as well but not to this extent. Hopefully one day you can get a generator installed that would keep the house going when you needed it in these situations. Glad you’re safe from the storms and possible tornado you encountered.
I already have a generator.
You can set the governor to change the HZ. I have a 8000 watt 10,000 surge generator. I had to do that. It floats between 59-60 Hz. It was doing the same thing yours is. I also had to mess with the idle speed so before it took a load it was over 60 Hz then when it had a load it came down.
I'll have to look through the manual and see how to make adjustments. This was the first time using.
And make sure that has a full battery back up
I don't understand.
Geez that storm looks insane if I were you if you have an older roof on your home I would check it just to make sure that you didn't lose a shingle but that's one insane looking storm man
Older houses are built better
I don't think it was strong enough, but I will check it when I'm up there to unblock the downspout.
That puts today's system that went through my area to shame, all I got was a bunch of heavy rain and some thunder and lightning.
Thanks for letting me know.
I just found this thanks. Always stay safe
I will try to.
I have a crank radio not charging which is ER310 because Usb Input doesn’t work when Connected to Power, the whole thing needs to Be Replaced the weather radios I have 3
Not good.
REALLY nice house
Thanks
Why don’t you have reg air, I saw at least 5 window air units which run your bill crazy just like using in the winter those plug in heaters. I had propane and switched and had a guy come out and I switched from propane to reg electric and went with a Lenox. They converted everything. It was 15,000 but I used their plan that was fixed at 8%. I own a dual huge home, that me and my sis custom built. So I control my heat/air and she has hers I have a huge kitchen, laundry etc….and this summer being a heat wave in 90’s for 3 months I watered daily on my lawns. My bill was only $ 200. That’s water, sewer, elec taxes, on a huge home. In fact our bill dropped compared to the propane.
I don't know what reg air is.
Same here I had to start my generator looks very bad outdoor the sky is deep black I have a Radio like yours and was a clever idea... Because you suggested in the past to get one . I think I might get the power back only tomorrow or Tuesday for my part...
Thanks for letting me know.
How many weather radios do you have.
5
Wow, super nice house
2:33 that’s genius
I thought it was fairly common to cover things stored outdoors.
In nj I don’t get tornados but I get heavy rain and branches coming down
Not good.
1:25:45 1:28:52 2:27:03 2:30:09 “The lights just went out”
A frog?😕....🤭🤭🤭🤭 Okay! Didn't see that coming😅
OK
Why did your "Committing an Electrical Misdemeanor" video disappear? I see that cord making a feature in this video.
I thought it was only comments that were disappearing. This is an entirely different wire.
good weather video
Thanks
What was the max wind speeds? Looked like a pretty good gust for a minute
I'm not sure, I forgot to look. I'm sure that gust was quite high, even at ground level.
Stay safe out there. I also subscribe to you as well.
Thanks
1:25:25 1:42:27 2:26:42 Power Failure!
What about it?
1:28:24 2:29:41 Android Notification Sound, OMG!
OK then
i love your content
We all like it
Bruce will still say he likes it anyway.
OK
Do you know if those would be easy or tricky for people in Canada? They sound like they're worth it because they alert you about storms, which is Handy.
I don't understand what you're asking.
@JordanU, where did you get those alert radio things?
Nice yard!!! Maybe its just me but I had to turn away sometimes because all the moving of the camera made me dizzy. 🤷♀️
❤️😊
I tried to keep the camera on the tripod as much as possible.
How long was the power out for and were there two generators and my grandma and I have two
Watch the video to find out.
I got to ask. is that poor fan ok. does it even still exist lol?
It's fine, used it yesterday.
@@JordanU good job little fan. 😂😂😂
I have one and yeah it got its use this year.
One what?
In my area, I had a tornado watch.
Thanks for letting me know.
Why did this thunderstorm happen at your location? Because of Tropical Storm Debby.
Probably.
OMG look thunderstorms you need go inside immediately
OK then
15:05 *wr120 going off intensifying*
I don't understand.
We great strong thunder storm with 60 mile winds
Not good.
Why did you fire up the generator?
probably just in case of a power outage
You can't be serious...
@@JordanU who?
I like it
OK
i am scared of stroms i am not fan of them
OK
GENERATOR UNDER THE PORCH??? REALLY???
OK then
2hour sleet days
I don't understand.
46:46
Furry friends eas is here
I don't know what that is.
Be
I don't understand.
1: hour and 15 minutes into the video .. WHAT is that black object that keep setting In the sky in the middle of the live ???? At first I thought it was just a dark lil cloud .. But it sets there for several minutes. the rest of the clouds are steadily moving . NOT that one lol UFO??? LOL . Oh yeah its def a UFO YOu can see it well at the 1 hour and 2 minutes ... Then it became the center of the screen taking a round shape .. I sat there for several minutes ...
