@@AlbertoMartinez765 Think of the millions of people that do that & worse multiple times a day for internet attention/notoriety. This is the default thing to do when you want it so desperately, but do not have the means to earn it through doing something positive or amazing. People hae concluded that ignorant, stupid & shocking will produce the same results.
For those of you asking why people didn't leave - a lot of people cannot afford to. where would they go? what money do you think they have for gas, hotel rooms, and so on? forget those of you who are saying they should move, easier said than done. And don't get me started on those of you bringing politics into this. People are suffering right now, either be compassionate or shut up.
Gtfoh, the city pays for the transportation and Red Cross is already there waiting to give shelter and food. Stfu, every couple years I go there to work storm trouble and see ignorance at every level. People like me will have to go by boat to save the stupid people again. Don’t talk about something you know nothing about
Literally a Pc of debris could easily come hurtling thru that window and Spear him or his family Good God man! I just don't understand the arrogance of some people...
And why was he standing in front of that wall of glass as Cat 4 hurricane winds toss debris past the said wall of glass? Of course we have a "reporter"(?) spouting nonsense in a rapid fire fashion in the hopes that the audience is as clueless as he is. A spike?

Agreed. I remember living in out of a one room lodge with my mom, 3 siblings, and her in and out bf. We could barely afford to even live there. If we were in the heart of a place riddled with natural disasters, we would be fucked.
I remember when I lived in my 18th-floor apartment, I can feel the whole building which is 32 floors, is moving slowly during Typhoon day. Bc the wind is too strong and blowing non-stop, and it causes huge buildings to swing. And all the door frames, wooden floor start to make sounds bc the building is changing shape while swinging. It is not noticeable until I sit down to use PC. And after sitting a while, I feel like having motion sickness.
Nice video!! Very engaging from beginning to end. Nevertheless, businesses and investment are the easiest way to make money. When it comes to the world of investing,most people don't know where to start.fortunately,great investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance
Hotel points and credit card points can also be donated. I don’t have much in hotel points because of Covid, but I’ll be donating what I do have along with the credit card points I’ve earned and a monetary donation to the American Red Cross.
Cat 4 hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico, 1 American dead from wind and rain. We call that a success. Only 1? I commend the people and governments of the coast as doing well with preparation and planning.
In the USA, they do not modernize :: the electrical systems are centuries of having those cables hanging and each time the storms destroy that system, Here in Norway nowadays all cables are in underground systems in boxes made so that the humidity does not destroy any. The transformers are also protected in their terminals. If they did so, the savings would be incredible.
We have entire states that have modern electrical and cable systems. Louisiana is one of the poorest states in the United States. Many infrastructure decisions are made at the state level.
Here in Texas it would be more costly to dig through the rock to bairy those lines, texas is far far larger than most European countries so its not as easy as it sounds
In fl at least, slowly, underground wiring has been set up. Not enough. And unfortunately, updating wiring, piping, drainage for floods runs a risk of sinking into the aquafer so that is a unique factor some areas don't have to deal with.
Yes you can, I work for Mastec, we sub from Florida power and light, the underground power lines are water proof and have water proof splicing cases. We deal with water every day in trenches and with directional boring. It’s really not a big deal anymore, plus we have laid cable underneath the St. John’s river.
Weather Channel: I'm standing in the middle of this street in 80 mph winds with the rain, and it just gives you the sense of the power and reality of this storm!
I live in tornado alley but we also have flooding when it rains a bunch, extremely hot summers and bitter cold winters, plus many small earthquakes a year. So the idea of making houses underground protects from some elements and catastrophes but still vulnerable to others.
some people don't have the ability to move, dude. It's not as simple as just packing up. Imagine if a whole state has to move all of a sudden. An exodus like that would put a huge strain on the areas where those people end up, as well. Look at Northern Cali, with the wildfires. Tens of thousands of people are being displaced and they don't know where to go. That being said, you do have a point in that many areas of the world are becoming uninhabitable because of how volatile weather events are becoming. Whole sections of Africa are now unlivable because of decades of drought. Northern Cali will soon be uninhabitable because the fires get worse every summer. Golf coast communities like New Orleans are very vulnerable to sea level rise and huge storms like this one. Other areas are becoming prone to flash floods, like central Europe where a few weeks ago many people died or lost everything when the river overflowed. Yakutia, a region of Siberia, is having wildfires that are bigger than the rest of the world's wildfires put together. Imagine that: one of the coldest, snowiest places on earth is suffering the worst wildfires on record because of drought. Yakutia in particular is interesting because the ground on siberia is permafrost. Underneath the permafrost lie the world's biggest deposits of greenhouse gasses, which is a big part of what is warming up the planet and causing all this. With the wildfires the permafrost is melting and the gasses are being released. So it's like a self-feeding cycle. Basically, humanity is fucked. For my part, I'm just trying to live it up as much as I can while I still can. These days every song I listen to sounds awesome. Every bite of food is yummy. Every nut I bust is like a religious experience. I'm taking *nothing* for granted because I know how fragile and precious every good time is. I highly suggest you do the same. It's the only sensible strategy right now, imo.
I think if you looked at the # of homes lost compared to the total # of homes along the Gulf Coast you would hush. But, it's much easier to just make an asinine post.
This is just an example of how antiquated our power grid is. We are a country just like every first world country that relies on power for everything. How have we not invested yet on outing our power cables underground, and transformers in more secure areas. With how bad natural disasters are, we shouldn’t compound it with our terrible outdated power grid.
Another person who doesn’t know what they’re talking about, we do have underground power, maybe your state should invest that money instead of collecting interest on it. Most of the entire state of Florida’s power is underground and it saves them a lot of money in the long run, also Georgia has started following the lead as well as South Carolina
What are you talking about? The derecho was covered, so much so that is has a very thorough wikipedia page that has almost 200 sources, most of which are from news outlets.
Yall restardted 60 mph winds don't blow roofs off buildings in hurricane and tornado states, those winds were 85+ of course he's saying 60 becuase he was in the eye winds are less intense
No more wooden houses. Build houses with deeper and stronger foundations plus tetrapod cement and steel. Condolences to the people suffering from great loss.
@@imaxcreeping0001 Every place is prone to something though. Not all hurricanes are that bad. I live in Fl and we just ride through it, clean up the next day and it’s like nothing ever happened.
@@adamt2415 the only thing that's come close to my house in years was a tornado that was 50 miles away so if ur house gets ripped out the floor by a hurricane remember that you wanted to stay there.
Last year on Aug 10 Cedar Rapids Iowa saw 140 hour winds. A Derecho (land hurricane) bore through. They are still cleaning up. Mostly in the lower income areas where they couldn't afford insurance, didn't get paid from insurance they had, or just couldn't afford repairs. The local government, a week before the anniversary started sending letters with threats of ultimately fines and fees if they don't comply. They did the same thing after the 2008 floods. It's the first step in a procedure to take land and sell it to developers.
Louisiana, United States: We hope that the state of Louisiana will have enough food, clothing, vaccinations and shelter. The governor of that state should help them.
Shouldn't the people that live there have enough common sense to prepare for a Hurricane? It's not like this is the 1st Hurricane to ever hit Louisiana.
@@BL-jt3qt when everyone panic buys there’s not going to be much left. Plus the roads were full. Not so easy to evacuate, especially without funds. Why is this so hard for people to understand?
@@BL-jt3qt it’s literally the governments job to make sure the citizens are well taken care of. That’s what we pay them to do why is that so hard to comprehend.
@@deondria97 If it's the governments job to take care of us instead of people taking care of themselves, then why should any of us have to go to work every day?
I’m from Houston Texas I hated leaving and being on the east coast and hell don’t no know if you would lose your house each year move!!! It’s sunny here in Az
Louisianas knowing what happened with Katrina also choose to go "Eh, it can't possibly be worse than Katrina right?.... right?...............right?." Run before more of yall die, please!
@@CaptainApathetic I'd saya good idea is to keep track of the weather and get notifications when a hurricane is expected to form and as soon as you get that notification leave as fast as possible .That's what I did as soon as I heard there was a tornado I left the city in the opposite direction of the tornado
Wind, rain, and power outages. It’s really not the end of the world I promise. These states are used to these storms and will bounce back as they always have. Calm the hell down.
60 mph winds.. wow that is a little less than normal thunder storms.. and that "Tractor Trailer" was really a Pickup truck pulling a trailer.. Oh and that big old billboard that was actually 4 billboards in one was nothing but a big sheet in the wind. If he would have gotten the 100 plus they got at the coast that billboard would be in the next parish..
80 mph? That's like a little sneeze compared to the 100 mph winds, chunks of ice falling on your head, explosions, and Odin splitting houses in half when he throws oak trees like a spear in the mid south.
I don't get how there is such devastation caused by the winds. Parts of Scotland regularly have winds of between 60 and 140 miles per hour, on occasions up to 180 mph yet there is usually very little damage. There may be the odd tree down or shed damaged but rarely do buildings collapse. Is it due to the wooden houses or poor construction methods or what? I am not being rude and you all have my sympathy, I am just curious about the difference.
I did not say that. I am just astonished that they are treating 60 mph winds like it is a big deal, and judging by the amount of damage caused, I can see why.. I genuinely thought they would be at least about 120mph. In the Northern Isles or the Outer Hebrides or on the North East Coast 8-10 hour storms are not at all unusual. (They are 60 degrees North in comparison to 31 degrees North for Louisiana. ) I just don't understand why the houses in Louisiana are built of wood.
@@beverlymcfarlane8681 to help hopefully clarify. The winds you see were way above 60. This was in the they eye, where the winds is toned down and was about 60. The actual storm was probably 100 plus. Not an expert but that’s what I think
AS WE KNOW, EVERY MOBILE-HOME IS PROBABLY DESTROYED AND ALL COULD HAVE BEEN SAVED WITH A LITTLE THINKING AHEAD AS WELL AS MOST HOUSES...BUT WE NEVER DO THINK AHEAD...DO WE!!!
Mobile homes are now built to a national standard that is more strict than many building codes. But if the mobile home is older than say the 1990s? Then the national standards didn't apply. I'm sure someone will correct my estimated date since this is RU-vid. 😄
May God saved and protect all this journalist rig their lives and take actions around the Gulf coast and the east coast to let us know what is going on with the storm Ida
Yeah I remember a random tornado unexpectedly hit my neighborhood. My house was okay, but other houses had their roofs blown off. Somehow, the dog toys I left outside were still on my deck after the tornado
Thank God it was not as strong as y'all made it out to be, people really need to get out when told, no power is horrible! I pray for all to get the help they need.
@@Jhart44 don't blame God for man made storm's . Do the research and notice they hyped the storm and it was not as they predicted now was it? Katrina was just a test and the people are still there? You want to live 500 feet below sea level, your choice, read the bible it tells you the sea's would rage. Fires all over the world , got Jesus? You will need him. Use wisdom.
@@DeborahLong7777 I’m glad I ran into you. Because I personally struggle to accept the Bible. I have spent the past 6 years of my life dedicating it to Jesus Christ. I have researched, read, listened to many pastors, atheists, evangelicals. And I have looked outside the Bible for evidence. There is! The only thing I don’t accept about Christianity is the Bible being the true word of God. To me God created everything, but has let things play out and might not be in full control.
@@Jhart44 I understand, that's the law and after the cross we are under grace. We fight not against flesh and blood but principalities and power's of this world! The book must be full. Feel free to join us sometime on my crazy channel and get some Jesus. It's all coming to pass fast! This is also a distraction from the middle east, another 911 attack the Taliban plan for the USA, just a heads up and no fear in Jesus. Much love 💜
“i wasn’t prepared for this” well if you weren’t prepared for this, then why the heck are you still at ya dang home, you had plenty of time to evacuates
Do you really need George Stephanopoulos at the end of every damn video telling viewers to subscribe? I wouldn't sub anyway just because of how annoying it is to have that at the end of every single video playing before I can click away. I think most people know how YT works and don't need a guide every video on how to sub
