Overnight Truck Camp in a SEVERE Storm. BBQ Ribs & Great Company

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

So….I made a big error in the video. Humidity level was at 82%. I was looking at the “chance of rain” when I said it was at 48%. That would have felt GREAT! Guess the heat was getting to me and I didn’t know how to read my weather app anymore😂👍🏻

I poll over one night, put on my hardhat and prayed during a bad storm in TX. You may want to pull on a tire boot, in some area and have back-up. sleep for 30 years in rest-areas. No problem, for 30 years. ALWAY HAVE 2 gallon of water as your back. Keep a wet towel with you to keep you awake and alert. AT THE REST AREA PICK-UP MAP TO STUDY, and a cup of coffee.

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Thanks👍🏻

[@DouggieDinosaur]

I had a leak-proof camper shell thanks to my mom. She advised me to hose water over the top and check for leaks (there were several spots) and the solution was to apply beads of transparent silicone caulk on the outside seams. It took about an hour of troubleshooting but eventually the last stubborn leak was found - I sealed it and from then on it was bone dry - you can do it! 😄

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Thanks for the tip👍🏻👍🏻

[@BlackAndWhiteNetwork]

Best part.. any beer you want... except Bud Light. 😂

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

[@SuziPoozi]

You guys have great camping spots down there! This one is so neat and tidy, and well laid out. I think there are 2 things you could get that would help make your camping a little better. One being a pop up canopy so you have shade and to keep out of the rain. You could set it up over your tailgate so you could have it open and have some workspace for meal prep. The other thing is coozies or Hydroflasks to keep your drinks cold. I have no idea how you can drink from a can when it's so hot. LOL : )

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Thanks Suzi👍🏻 I actually brought a xan cooler, but I guess the heat killed my ability to remember that😂

[@SuziPoozi]

@@BrianWatersOutdoors 😆 I hate it when that happens! I've been using Hydroflask tumblers and water bottles for so long, I can't stand to use normal cups anymore. I guess I'm spoiled now. LOL

When Brian said humidity, I thought he was gonna say like 98% Here on the southern NC coast 48% humidity feels wonderful to us😂😂

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Yup. I said that wrong. I was looking at the wrong #. We were closer to 63%. It was thick out there👍🏻

[@crazychris7417]

It’s been humid and we set a record for the dew point being 81! 96 but heat index was 107 🥵 Glad you don’t use bud light to….marinate your meat 😂

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Yeah…I said 48%, and I realized I was looking at the “chance of rain”. We were actually around 81% humidity. It was a sauna pit there

[@warren6899]

From South Africa. Morning Brian, it's no secret that South Africa is a semi desert, water scarce, relatively hot climate. To combat heat while camping we have something we call (Africaans) n silver seil. Evenly it's a canvas backed, silver fabric that reflects the heat, and comes in sizes ranging from 3x3 m to 6x10 m. It's got eyelets all the way round for poles & guy ropes,.and we cover our tents, trailers, awnings whatever and it reflects heat like nobody's business. Woks extremely well. Google it, perhaps you lot have it or similar there RGDS Warren

[@BrianWatersOutdoors]

Thanks Warren👍🏻 I’m not aware of anything quite like that here. We use “reflectix” a lot, and I’ve seen people glue “carpet” to one side of it to help also

[@warren6899]

@@BrianWatersOutdoors hi definitely not reflextic, backing is a ripstop canvas and top is a silvered material. Strong & durable. For winds, We also have the habit of throwing a cargo /swimming pool net over everything then staking that down, independently of already deployed stakes..pretty much bomb proof.

I was wondering about the Bodega the entire episode until you showed it because I knew I saw it in the back seat lol. It's actually a pretty good test and shows the brand's durability and quality.

From my experience with mules, the copper mug just basically keeps it colder. Not sure if there is something else with the chemical reaction or something dealing with the copper and the alcohol. Just keeps it colder than glass.
