Agree about the music. I watch these videos to safely get "close" to something I'm unlikely to experience in person--and to understand what is possible if I do. I doubt that the sounds of a symphony would accompany ANY severe weather I might encounter. (From that point of view, I'm more tolerant of yelling and cussing. I would be.)

Its not like a 9-5 job. That load has to be delivered. ⛽ Bill. Insurance. Maybe toll. Late delivery fee. Hopefully the load isn't damaged.

People seem to think for some reason it has to be raining or storming to have a tornado, that's such a myth, no thunderstorm/ rain needed😢 you can have Tornadoes in a high wind situation, you don't have to take me at my word just do your own research, watch videos, how many Tornadoes are actually happening during Thunderstorms, and how many aren't 🤔
@ey3z4ya13 күн бұрын
That doesn't make any sense. Tornadoes are storms and only form because of storms
@avengingcarma552513 күн бұрын
@ey3z4ya Seriously, do your research, Tornadoes 🌪 are formed, ( associated) with a strong or/ and powerful updraft, (usually occurring when warm air and cold air collide) so rain does not fall into or next to a Tornado, it is true that some Tornadoes are Rain " Wrapped" but that is just because of again, the cold and warm atmospheric temperatures that are are happening during the weather anomaly at the time of the storm. That's why in Tornado Ally especially this year there have already been over 700 Tornadoes 🌪 especially at night they are hard to see, because of the changes in temperatures in the atmosphere higher up then closer to the ground...😉 the warmer temperatures at ground level collide with the cooler temperatures higher up with forms the circulation and that can create the funnel if it gets intense enough that's why you always hear the weather reporters say The conditions are good for 🌪 in this area.." Tornado ⚠️ warnings" are issued...I'm only even mentioning this to alert people 😳 so they Don't think that a Thunderstorms is the only time there may be a Tornado

It’s so crazy though because here in Michigan we get tornado watches, and we just stand outside and watch the sky or stand in our garages when it’s hailing out with the garage door open😂 it’s because every time nothing happens. So we have this nonchalant kind of outlook on it, but I’m just happy that even though I was at Southland mall at my place of employment I couldn’t even see outside because we were in the back hallway. None of us were in panic mode and I think it’s because of, all the years of nothing ever happening and acting like it’s not going to. We were just in the back talking like normal, but making sure our loved ones were OK by giving phone calls. I was on a different level because my husband was out driving around and my animals are at home by themselves so I was nervous and mad.😂 but very very happy that everyone is OK and my optimistic personality says it could’ve been worse and my heart goes out to the people who were really affected by this. It’s a very scary thing and weather in Michigan is very bipolar.

Why is it that chasers in Michigan don't use the correct terms for the specific descriptions the person sometimes refers to and associates certain terms incorrectly within how a storm may interact. Like there is no such meteorological term that goes by "The Bears Cage" where one chaser was located and that was the exact term used by them. Now this person here incorrectly said the tornado was following or traveling the "RFD" when usually the "RFD" travels with the tornado in most cases or side swipes from a flanking position thus the name. I just don't get it, out of the lower 48 there's 47 who all use the same meteorological terms even some foreign countries do too also. 🤷🏻🤦🏻
@givemeyournachos13 күн бұрын
"The Bear's cage" is a legit term. It's the the area under a rotating wall cloud/tornado which is the "bear" . The blinding rain and hail which masks the actual tornado and it's size, is called the 'cage'. As it's just surrounding the vortex. RFD is the Rear flank downdraft, so if a chaser is saying they're travelling the RFD, it usually means they're travelling behind the tornado.

Here is Christ's question Mathew 15: 3: "But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?" Malachi 2: 1-4: "And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it. And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts." A women say "the Husband has no name". Another ones say "the Husband has many names". Some of women "love the Husband in all his manifestations" like: neighbour, taxi driver, coworker... But, all of those prostitutes say "the Husband is the only". Then they even talk about "trinity of the Husband" and they are not against "the Son taking the Husband's place". In the same way religious prostitutes try to hide their disgusting fornication with different gods. Furthermore, a correct pronunciation of the Name is unknown now. This is the “loyalty” of traitors! Here is the God's word spoken through Moses, Deuteronomy 11: 16-17: "Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; And then the LORD's wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you." So, the God says there are other gods, but blind leaders of blind lead people into trap. "Jesus" means "Jehovah is salvation". This is the name of Christ real christians are hated for. "HalleluJah" means "Praze Jah" (Jehovah). Psalm 83: 18: "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth." The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why liers feel so good while righteous people are persecuted. That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our beloved ones again! :-)
