A radar time lapse covering an entire year in 2017 across the U.S. Watch several storm systems travel through the U.S., including Hurricane Irma and Harvey.
I want to see as much of the radar archive as possible in a time lapse. Maybe even include more than just the national mosaic and overlay more info. I don't know how this would work since its different based on location of the radar site, but storm relative velocity or maybe somehow encode the radar layers or something. Alos, maybe make different colors for different event types. instead of just red for warnings etc, maybe a tornado warning and a flash flood warning have different colors. maybe one of the models or SPC overlayed? Tempted to try making something like i described myself but my computer is nowhere near powerful enough to even attempt it Maybe make a timelapse of a full-color full-disk GOES or something, maybe even with radar overlay?
@@_darkblue1688 I live in Naples FL but i rode the storm out just east of naples, that house got decimated by irma's (at the time) 160 MPH wind gusts. That sucked, it was a rental house and we never got to have it repaired or anything. Stayed there until November and never got power or cable :(
I lived in one of the 3 rainiest parts of Houston during Harvey. We got 48" in 2 days. Luckily I did not flood. It was crazy. Torrential rainfall that just stalled over the city for multiple days. It would not let up. Was pretty scary. Some people near creeks had 4 feet of water in their house. I helped rip out drywall/insulation. Unholy smell.
Considering that there are only 3 states in the whole country that are wider AND longer than the path of any ONE hurricane.............uuummmmmmm YEAH.
Amazingly at 6:52 the tiny looking storm over Detroit/Windsor, Ontario Canada was the most costly natural disaster in Canada that year. Over 6000 homes flooded plus $124 million in insurance claims plus infrastructure damage (many roads/underpasses were flooded out due to failed pumping stations).
Oh God I remember Christmas Eve 2017 in Michigan! That snow storm was so horrible that I had to drive to Rochester Hills to a Christmas party in that storm...
It's really fascinating to see an entire year's worth of weather activity for the entire country condensed into ten and a half minutes. I have to admit getting chills when Irma appeared on screen, though, even though I knew it was coming. At the time, I was here in Washington state, and my mother still lived in Florida, in the Sarasota area. My father passed away at the end of 2016, so my mother was completely alone during the hurricane, and I remember vividly how scared both of us were because it looked for a while like it was going to make landfall directly over her. To see Irma in fast motion-- to see it enter the frame, track up the center of the state, and dissipate further inland, all within a matter of moments, and set to such calming music-- it really put it into an eerie new perspective for me. In the moment, that was an event that absolutely terrified me to my core and made me feel completely helpless, and yet... in the grand scheme of things, it was just the blink of an eye. We were fortunate; she made it through the storm unscathed and moved up here closer to me, and I'm so grateful it worked out this way. I don't know how I could've handled something happening to her less than a year after losing my father.
This is really interesting, and illustrates a number of the lower 48’s weather patterns that often go unnoticed without seeing them in rapid motion. Thanks for this video 🙃
In Georgia, here. I just kept staring at it, lol. I actually like rain, so hopefully we won't have any serious flooding where I live from a tropical storm.
It’s so cool that every late afternoon and early evening like clockwork there’s a surge in weather activity. It’s almost like the planet has a heart beat.
I was on Padre Island when it happened. Still working right up until the last hour we were told it'd be best to evacuate cause Harvey could have taken a slight turn and the eye could have plowed straight through Corpus Christi. It would have been much worse than it was if that happened. Unlucky for the folks living in Aransas and around Copano Bay, but the population there is more spread out and dispersed so no Galveston 1900 situation occurred. The terrain here is more resilient to flooding than Houston is though, so they turned into a giant soup bowl when they got hit.
I loved this! Every severe storm system that went through western PA, matched the date and screen shot I took of my radar app. November, 5 @ 7:17 was my favorite one of the year.
This is excellent! If you freeze the video at Feb 17, you'll see plume of rain that lasted for hours in Simi Valley where we received 4" of rain, that's about a third of our annual.
5:30 That system over Northern Illinois was insane. Had large flooding that became a stressful week for me. Didn't help that more rain came afterwards too.
So cool watching this, but what is all the pulsing circles all over the country? It really made watching the whole year on radar look as though it kept deflecting, pushing the rain away, especially the ones in the south. Almost every time it pulsed, the rain was pushed south or east
I was blown away when I seen this because of this video. To see it in motion 😮 HAARP RINGS ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VcTKAnr25OE.html God Bless and Be Safe All 🙏👼💞
Melanie Wood , thanks for that link, I like Dutchsinse & he was proven correct on HAARP rings. Yesterday I walked outside & there were no clouds but a mist was coming down from the sky - then I saw two fading chemtrails. Between HAARP & Chemtrails ; all we can do is pray- they aren't going to stop. 😕🙏🏻
Jacqueline Hagedorn Watching the pulsing action and the form of them across the u.s. just proved Dutch very correct. God Bless and Be Safe I am a Daily Dutch Watcher.
I love this stuff. I love seeing how the convection changes from being driven by low pressure systems in the cooler months to diurnal heating in the warmer months. that's just one thing I love.. lol
Crazy how the weather is pulsating right? I get it that it has to do with the day of time and such, but man, it looks like its breathing. Fascinating timelapse
Much appreciated. I've been waiting to see an animation like this to see the long-term, continental patterns. I think I'm a little dizzy after watching through this.
This is very cool, I'm always watching my Boston area and how the Jetstream brings the weather, it's amazing how clouds and moisture spread life giving rains throughout our country, the atmosphere is really a miracle.😁🙏
My birthday was Feb 28th. I live in the bootheel. I really enjoyed waking up to a tornado warning at 2am. That was my birthday present from The National Weather Service.
4:46 An F3 touched down on June 16th by where I live in southwest Iowa, it was near Omaha. It dealt some serious damage and our power was out for three days.
Nice yeah I’m nearby. Was chasing that day. Had some incredible lightning occur near York after that line moved south: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-783upr0czu4.html
being from connecticut, it was interesting to see a small storm move across the country then form in a nor easter when it hits the ocean. Can always recognize them by the counter clockwise rotation. And ironically we are getting our first of the season tomorrow. Luckily it will be only rain
BG TechTeardown - *"**8:03** Um what the heck that’s not natural at all someone explain this"* What exactly? The radar bloom? Well known phenomenon, basically ground clutter caused by refraction through inversion layers at nighttime.
Yeahhh Virginia’s been fun this year... so temperamental, so rainy. Now winter has hit early and I’m in a coat and boots even though it was 81 degrees like a week ago.
Moisture and probably some other artifacts like bugs can get picked upon the radar in the evenings in summer. It causes circular blobs on radar that pop up each evening in the right conditions.
3:51 this is the day i got a Gustfront it ripped through my town causing down powerlines one powerline landed on 1 of our churches! lots of downed trees this was in iowa so ya know
Rain must love us on the east coast, especially this year, can you make one for 2018, all were going to see is me in Maryland getting pounded by rain for like three months straight
Oh hey, you can see the time when it snowed for the first time in many years in the south, or perhaps just Louisiana (December 8) in there too. Assuming that the gray means snow.
So what causes the clouds over Phoenix? I don't mean the flows of weather systems over Arizona. If you watch the Arizona area, some clouds are like streaming from a point in the middle of the state. Why? High pressure? Low pressure?
During what time of the video are you wondering about? Keep in mind that radar shows precipitation like rain, snow, hail, etc. and sometimes debris, but not clouds. Cloud droplets are too small to be seen by this type of radar. In general, low pressure systems will help create clouds and high pressure will inhibit their growth. Source - BSc Atmospheric Sciences.
its cool seeing the day/night cycle by how much noise from insects and the like are on the radar. you can tell because every radar site gets a circle of noise at night lol. In the morning is cool too i thinks thats something else though
6:38 I feel bad for the people between Iowa & Minnesota & the East of South Dakota, they had clouds in the sky so they didn't get to see the solar eclipse. I had to go to the dentist at that time so I missed it to, even though i live in Pennsylvania.
