That guy really asked for a helicopter? In that weather?

This is really bad. But when you say that it's bigger than a hurricane? Get real. Sorry, but there have been hurricanes MUCH bigger than that. Much stronger, too. You have weak trees... Hurricanes start at Gale 12... May the 18 rest in peace.

In a remote moment on a hiking trail, I was attacked by a dingo. Its alertness and ferocity took me by surprise, leaving me uncertain and at a loss for what to do. This experience created a feeling of fear and vulnerability in the presence of the wild.

Definatly dont believe Michael fishs lame excuse at the end,he was obviously talking about the uk

So this is what they say "scary yet very beautiful and peaceful"

I was out in that storm, walking home from a friend's house in Portsmouth, the only time I got scared by the intensity of the wind I had to fight against. I was five miles inland but could taste the salty seawater on the gusts.

there is an uncontrollable fire burning with things being chucked about, uh yeah ill go inside of it like WHAT😂😂

EARLIER ON TODAY A WOMEN PHONED THE BBC AND SAID THAT THERE'S A HURRICANE ON THE WAY WELL IF YOUR WATCHING DON'T WORRY THERE ISN'T WRONG MICHAEL FISH!!!! 🐟

I live in a coastal village on the SW coast of the Isle of Wight and was caring for an infirm elderly farmer that night. The large stone chimney on his 300 year old farmhouse fell through the roof, fortunately into an unoccupied room. He was very stoic as we waited until morning. I was worried for my husband and children in our house up the hill. They were all fine but our garage roof had blown off.

The eye of these storms is one of the most breathtakingly beautiful sights in nature. I recall one scientist/pilot referring to it as the "stadium effect." I tip my hat to the amazing scientists and flight crew.

i would give an organ to be in that jumpseat

really neat!

I remember asking my dad if we should leave our 200 yr old brick end terrace.."we not abandoning ship yet kid" was his reply...i uttered the same words on 2022 during cyclone Kevin in the south pacific. RIP Pa ❤

If this was on a test in your meteorology class in college you would have got a D- on this

3:56 no way..... IS THIS HOW BIG IS THE HURRICANE

God that's sexy

I was in my early twenties. I was woken by a tremendous howling in the early hours. As we had no warning, I thought it was just extremely windy - although it did sound frighteningly strong. It had subside by morning and my wonderful dad gave me a lift to work, at Heathrow airport. There were fallen trees and phone lines and cables across the roads. Many of my colleagues didn’t make it in to work that day, but our early morning flight arrived without incident. Quite a memory.

It barley made cat 2 hurricane wind speed but some how was stronger then a hurricane in America it barley make the news 😂

It's still amazing what humanity can build and do. The courage and ingenuity it takes to go to into the eye of natures most destructive power. I believe our best days are still ahead of us. Our destiny lies in the stars and i am sure we will one day get there.

I was in Cold Lake MP 90-93 and 97-2004. I started my career there however 32 years later, I retired in Ottawa. The base exercises, deployment to San Antonio, TX, the pilots, the ground crew, families, and the city of Cold Lake are my greatest memories. Lots have changed and many of us are aging, retired, and up to the new generation to keep the right stuff going. Love you all.

This is some real manly stuff. What a dream to experience this and then also see the beauty of the hurricane's eye!

I have had a very low opinion of so called "journalists" for most of my life. This disaster happened far from my home country, when I was just a toddler. But the actions of the BBC reporters then, confirm my opinion. News reporters are completely irresponsible and the ones today are a pack of liars and distorters of the truth. Every broadcast that they make now is filled with politically motivated distortions and none of the major news corporations can be trusted. The government owned agencies are even worse, with government propaganda replacing even the basic truths that the public needs.

I was out that night a few of us in Manchester, I am not sure why but I remember wind and rain. Walking was hard. A friend of ours was a sex worker by the canal in Manchester and we would call there and see her and how she was doing. Her brother was also a friend of ours. That night I remember a lot of the girls and boys just said no more we are off. Mary awaiting a taxi shared a few moments and a cig as we waited with her and Manchester was very strange, It felt like the city had closed and every one had just left. We were early 20s then and so did not mind the weather it was a change but very strange feeling when the centre of a city you know is so deserted. We got back to Hulme and realised how soaked with the rain we were. Next day it was on the news places wrecked.

Boom

This is cropped. When are you retarded reupload channels finally going to learn your ruining the shit you post by giving it a shitty crop to widescreen instead of just letting it be 4:3? Unwatchable.

Is this the storm that caused a piece of wood to hit Rene off Hello Hello ?

Storm busters .

I remember this l was born in 1970 so yes l remember this l remember watching this on the BBC news at 8aclock weather forecast this weather was mad if enyone remember this give a thums up or down l don't mind at least l would get some sort of response lol

Worthing? West Sussex Worthing? I’m randomly watching this video out of nowhere and it’s strange that I live there. Watching a random video that mentions the place. 🤔

I was only a baby, so I don't remember any of it. Absolute chaos!

Welcome back to another episode of why is this in my recommended 😂

Regarding the teacher on the beach with 70 children in his care. There was a very strong wind and he remarked about seeing a very dark leaden sky. To me, now, that would say 'Get the f**k outta here!', checking the barometer en route in the near certainly of the pressure dropping like a stone. There would also have been other easily noticed indications that would give more detail of what was on its way. But I only know that because I've learnt an awful lot in the past 50yrs, including the development of a sailors eye for the weather. The overwhelming majority of us were, and still are, too reliant on what our media experts report and have given up the ability to even understand that nature is telling us something.

I remember that night. It was about 10pm that I set off to drive from Bournemouth area to my digs in Southampton. It was a journey of about 30mls mainly along the motorway style roads. As I reached the open roads I realised that the wind was something to be very wary of. The wind was coming from mainly behind me but there was significant buffeting and special attention was required to keep the car in a straight line. I reached my digs, well inside Southampton city at probably about 10:45. I said something to my landlord like "There's a fair old wind out there", went to bed and thought nothing more of it until we all awoke the following day and heard about the carnage around us. The storm centre had come ashore not far to the east of Southampton and the inner city was pretty sheltered so we missed the worst. But it was still ultra-scary in hindsight what I had almost been driving through. An hour later and 6 or 7 miles to the east and I would have been driving through the storm centre as it hit.

I thought the F-18 didn’t have ILS capabilities

53:49 Coincidentally, the Andrea Gail was a fishing vessel out of Gloucester, Massachusetts, USA, that was stuck out in the ocean during one of the worst storms similar to this one to hit the New England area of America. It was lost without a trace during the No Name Storm or "Perfect Storm", as it came to be known, in late October, 1991. I highly recommemd reading the book rather than watching the movie, but either way you'll see how furious the storm actually was.

I was 5 years old and don't remember it thankfully

Small and insignificant, you can't beat mother nature ... and now consider its our loving Lord who created that nature ... and in the arrogance of this age ... people increasingly moon their creator and embrace the mini god in the mirror for their destiny. Tragic. God is loving ALL the time. ALL the time God is loving. At the same time we only own our choices. HE owns us. And will give us the future we choose; with Him, or against Him. Lets wake up a bit eh? Quite !!

I'm the eldest of three siblings by 4 yrs. I remember watching all of these programmes with my Mum after my brother & sister went to bed back in the 90s. I was in my early teens.

I was living in Acomb near Hexham back then I was 7 at that time and I remember it vividly.

I call bullshit on the excuse that Michael Fish came up with. Why not just admit they got it very wrong?

In spite of the chaos "bad" weather causes, we do well that our Creator always has control of everything. Please remember when Jesus walked on the Sea of Galilee and told the stormy sea to be still it obeyed instantly. This event proved God's limitless power and Jesus' limitless diety. The Son of God is my Savior and my very best Friend,

That's pretty much what I'm trying to do in MSFS 2020 all the time xD

I was sleeping in my "Wimpey Timber Framed (plywood) House" and woke up because my bed was moving. The House was shaking side to side. I looked out the window and all my neighbours were in coats, scarfs and wellies standing in the middle of the street. I turned over and went to sleep. Not watching the news I was up early and tried to drive out the village, every route was blocked by massive trees and flooding. Police sent me home. Walking through the devastation was shocking. My "flimsy" house swaying was like a Palm Tree BENDS with the wind probably is what saved it but just about every single Tree was down. South Essex lost over half of all its trees but Kent seemed to lose the vast majority, as you say 6 of 7 Oaks in Sevenoaks. Ignorance was Bliss but watching the news that morning ignorance could have been my last act.

Got to love meteorologists in the UK, they didnt have a clue then, and they are just as inept now.

5 seconds either way and those poor firemen would still be with us. I'm so sorry for those very brave men losing their lives in the line of duty. Lots of love to them and their families ❤❤

I was 14 and remember my grandparents both since passed. Sadly. They were up on the roof of our bungalow trying to tarp a small part of our roof. We lived on a small holding. We had lots of animals that all had to be locked down for the night, luckily everyone was OK, but the wind blew terribly across out fields towards our house, extremely loudly bc the fields had a flat run to the house. We were OK compared to so many x

"Alright.. Good one".. Yeah right.. I piss my self captain..

Lack or no forewsrning of the great storm of 1987 is what i remember.

I have such a vivid memory of waking up to this storm. I lived in a building from the early 1700s and my bed was on bare floorboards, and all the fireplaces and chimneys were open. I woke up because my bed was literally being moved across the room by the winds coming through all these available spaces. I was 11 and didn’t know what on Earth was going on. My brother and I looked out of the window and didn’t recognise the view. Trees blown down and all, it was a change in the landscape overnight to our young minds. Because my family ran the village pub (hence the old building), everyone knew to come to us and everyone pooled their resources - I think someone had a generator which they brought down so we could still give them all a pint and a meal! It was scary, but also really brought the community together. The drive to school when it reopened was strange, driving past other young people at bus stops who were clearly still in shock, as were we. And Jacqueline Du Pre died that night as well. An intense event.

I was in the New Forest at the time aged 9 and the wind cracked my bedroom window. It was loud. Trees down everywhere. Few days off school though so didn't mind. Remember at school the song "John Kettling is a weatherman but Michael Fish is a dick" did the rounds 😂
