    Well done, James. Exciting stuff and I'm envious!
    Would be good to get some numbers from your shelters too; wind speed and gusts, barometric pressure, etc.
    Thanks. Always look forward to these dispatches.

      @@ChuckD59 thanks for watching Chuck! I don’t usually spend much time sharing that data on the near misses or weaker storms but maybe I should. Didn’t have much footage to work with either hence the snappy ending.

    these are getting better and better - the combo of on-the-scene narration and the 'looking-back' voiceover drives the tight focus on story-telling. Really great stuff

      Thank you so much!! Still trying to find a formula which works and feel I’m getting close to it.

      @@EarthUncutTV I feel like it's a direct hit, by now. The key is story, and you're nailing it.

    Were you able to do any video on Hurricane Beryl down in the Carribean ? Especially the island of Calloue.

    Again, awesome work James. I like your new style of videos you are doing. The videography, storytelling, and graphics are perfect. Plus you are nailing the time. Although I would love to see longer ones, these are straight to the point. Awesome job bud 👏🏼👏🏼

      Thanks so much! This one was short because not a huge amount happened given the eyewall missed. The next two will be longer since they were significant impacts!
