Riding out hurricane Milton in Central Florida: My horrible Experience with the storm.

[@KylePalIo]

This was recorded the night Milton went through Florida. I can say this was the worst storm I’ve ever experienced. The winds were scary here. Praying for the coast and those who have been affected ❤

[@MummyTours]

Hi kyle, glad your both ok. Thanks for documenting it for us. Stay safe.x

[@adisjourney71]

Glad you & Casey are safe !!

[@jackieyarbrough4985]

You are the BEST vlogger!👍🏻 So much variety and I LOVE it! So glad you are safe❤️

[@Monkieboy00]

😂 toilets don’t use electricity. I don’t think yall are the brightest

[@KariHarrell]

He’s not from the coast and not everyone realizes toilets don’t need power to work. You can let him know without the insult 🙄

[@Mebirduwine]

sometimes we word things wrong especially when rushing, but we all knew what he meant

[@ericjohnson225]

Toilets don’t stop working when the power goes out and water pressure is created by gravity. Water storage in the tub is a precautionary thing in the event that water pressure is disrupted by a water tower being damaged. Glad you guys are safe!

[@loriplate729]

I was going to say the same thing, unless you are on a well system then you have a pump. Most cities do not have well and septic, those are usually in rural areas.

[@erinronnfeldt9327]

It all depends on what kind of water system you have or if it runs on a pump. I live in SWFL and when our power goes out the pumps in our water will stop working or run at a super low rate. It’s different state by state. I used to live in the Midwest and this wasn’t an issue.

[@shawnokeefe1580]

Hahaha.....

[@megmayo]

Same. And I’m pretty sure Celebration has public water so you can always flush your toilets without power.

[@HeidiNandez]

As he filling up the tub with water, I was thinking this…I had heard several times that a bathtub is a place to shelter in in case of Tornados!!, covering yourselves with pillows and such. I don’t know…just what I’ve heard. Am I right on wrong? Anybody??🫤

[@pickypants9696]

You never want to make a claim on your insurance or make any contact with your insurance about home damage unless the damages significantly exceed your deductible. Why? Because any claim will raise your future rates and any suggestion of damage makes you high risk in the insurance company's eyes. Particularly in Florida!

[@KylePalIo]

Huh never thought about it like that.

[@dominiquebrown8790]

As a former insurance agent, 100% agree. In Florida your hurricane deductible is probably 2% of your dwelling (that's how most agents write policies unfortunately) so keep that in mind.

[@bsr6823]

Great advice, same with car insurance.

[@AliciaP07]

Also never use the word “flood”. Say something like water intrusion from hurricane winds and rain

[@MrNCTom]

that’s why i keep a high deductible. might as well save some money if i’m not going to submit a $1000 claim with $500 deductible

[@MikeDillard-e8t]

FYI - you don’t need power to flush a toilet 🚽 😉

[@joanna_collier98]

I died at the slow motion of Casey karate chopping the pillow. Hurricane or not you better believe those pillows will look perfect

[@KylePalIo]

She’s in cobra Kai 🐍

[@joanna_collier98]

@@KylePalIo Oh I can tell 👊

[@psychicnataliedavis3313]

lol I caught that too. I was like what

[@x2fishyy_108]

Dont understand why people leave their cars out on the road, especially one near a tree, glad you guys are okay.

[@loriplate729]

We were saying the same. Why not park 3 ft up away from the small tree. And why park in front of someone else’s house, that is not Kyle’s vehicle.

[@scampercat12]

It was the scariest storm ever. Here in Saint Petersburg we are still with out power and trees are down. But we’re safe. Let’s hope Milton the last storm for a long while. Prayers to all Floridians 🙏

[@Trucker2023]

That's not flooding it's known as a puddle jump in and enjoy...

[@loriplate729]

He is dramatic.😂

[@JOHNSsss]

You gotta get some spout extenders bud, can't have water just spilling out at the base of your structure like that.

[@komosatp]

Water doesn’t turn into ice in Florida so wet ground around a foundation isn’t as big a deal as places where the ground can freeze. Plus no basement for water to leak in to. Plus plus the water table is very high in Florida, so foundations are almost always wet.

[@dextersmom5694]

I was thinking they should make French drains along with the extenders, if the HOA will allow

[@Heather_K13]

Casey is giving me Cobra Kai vibes with that pillow chopping lol 😂 Glad you are both safe!!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@lizzishaw]

Just for the future, your toilet isn't affected by power. It's a basic valve in the toilet - when you flush, it releases the water in the cistern and gravity pulls it down. If you lose water, the cistern won't automatically refill so you can use the water to manually flush instead. Just chuck a bucket full into the bowl. Still watching but very glad to see in the comments you both are safe and sound. Scary stuff!

[@jennyrenp2908]

Don’t be one of those people on KZbin & monetize Just focus on you & Casey That’s not a flood

[@8bitboii13]

Let the man do what he wants with his channel

[@lindaallen9721]

I thought he said he was going to donate part of the proceeds of his video from the other day, not sure about this video.

[@Huntbeck33]

Hurricanes are very eerie. I live in New Jersey and will never forget hurricane Sandy. The noises I heard at night were unimaginable. I’ve never seen so much destruction in my life and I’m 2 hours away from the Jersey shore. We had no power for 2 weeks and it took us 3 days to get to my grandparents house that had a generator and it’s usually only a 30 min drive. That storm was so devastating and historical and was wayyy worse than what you experienced in your video. I’m shocked this was the worst uve experienced. Glad you’re good and pray for the people on the coast.

[@susanbarnett761]

Please get a generator and a camping grill for the lanai. We've done that for every hurricane. If you space the sandbags a few inches apart you might have been able to stretch them and not much water would enter as water takes the path of least resistance. You left far too much area for the water the way you spaced the bags.

[@juliekm6495]

Kyle in future you might want to find a good solid generator and look at putting some solar panels on the roof! Couldn’t hurt! You and Casey stay safe! I have relatives in Miami and Jacksonville, Fl. Saying prayers for all of you!

[@Katz1950]

I agree. A generator is a MUST in Florida!

[@rapunzel1701]

Toilets are mechanical so all you'd need to do is fill the tank, no power needed. We would just bring water from the pool. Yes, Florida Girl slept through it. I do.

[@tararockrevivalbebe6427]

I’m very glad you both were ok. I’ve been looking at damage in Lakewood Ranch near Bradenton it’s newer higher sea level community stronger built homes. No flooding but trees down not too bad. I think I’m moving there. Can’t let the fear of hurricanes prevent me from moving back to my home state! Love Florida!

[@TravelingKristin]

The tornadoes were quite scary in north Palm Beach County and just north of us up to Vero on Wednesday. We lost power overnight and got it back Thursday afternoon. We were lucky. Glad all was ok for you and Casey.

[@optimusfuturistX]

Glad you two are safe.. Casey is a pro, Kyle you are in good hands😂(maybe add some plantation shutters to your home)

[@KylePalIo]

Casey has been through more hurricanes, she definitely handled it better then I did. she is a pro

[@ChinaDollTravels]

It was hard for me to sleep wed night too it was so windy and heavy rains banging on my room window 🪟 but glad you guys are safe

[@rsg587]

Keep the sandbags in the garage until the storm season is officially over. After you can use the sand to fill in any wash out areas in your yard 😉

[@goldenhermit]

Glad y’all are safe! Have you considered getting custom shelves built for the back of the closet under the stairs? You could get more stuff in there.

[@brandon_m_graves]

Glad you and Casey are okay. The closet by the stairs is the best place to be for a tornado because that's going to be the strongest point in the house. You actually live in a great place in Central Florida for hurricanes. You're inland which is the best place to be.

[@elizabethbyrne3602]

That was a crazy night! We’re in Windermere. I didn’t get up at 4 either even though I set alarm. LOL we’ve been here 4 years so still new too. You did a great job prepping. Bring a homeowner in a storm like this is a different feeling and yea, other people had it way worse but this was still our own experiences. I hope you get to go on the cruise! Let’s hope we’re done for this hurricane season.

[@aimeewigton1453]

Glad u guys are safe and sound

[@AliciaP07]

You can flush without power. You need water in case there’s not water coming through city pipes

[@loriplate729]

Should fill pitchers of water in the frigid, for drinking, the melting ice is to see how frozen your food is, not how long power has been out. For next time.

[@anacatalinalopezlutz3143]

I'm glad you're okay over there, my prayers for everyone in Florida 🙏🏼 Thank you for sharing your experience with the hurracain. Greeting from Costa Rica 🇨🇷

[@nancyhingson7529]

Hi Kyle & Casey!!! I had to smile at your expressions after the hurricane because we felt the same way!!! We live in Clermont and holy moly it literally was a brutal night!!!! I smiled because we had the exact same feeling yesterday morning after it was over and got some great sleep yesterday. Thank God they normally do not come through Central Florida! We made it!!! We were scheduled on Utopia today and was bumped til Saturday so I bet you will be fine with your cruise! Enjoy 😊

[@nancybates9606]

Glad you guys were safe and that you didn’t receive any damage on your home from what you can see.

[@jillmarie4155]

I live in a tornado belt in Canada in a condo so I don't have a basement either. The best place is under your stairs in that closet. Trust me. For tornadoes you go to the lowest floor you can get to, inside room with no windows and under the stairs offers even more safety as they have more support.

[@cathyburmaster3622]

Hi Kyle and Casey! I’m so thankful that you both survived what could’ve been a horrible hurricane result. Also, you can keep and reuse your sandbags after your hurricane since they weren't contaminated by floodwaters.

[@ceceb6264]

When I filled my bathtub, the water kept going down, I found out my big dog was drinking it😊 and yes he had water in his bowel

[@CC-123abc]

A future improvement would be to place underground drains to route the water from your side and back yard out to the street. Get your neighbors to do this as well. Builders should be required to do this when they build so close together. Also don't even call your insurance unless you really need to. Call your agent before you call insurance. I'm glad you made it through ok.

[@Mary-eg8rj]

Glad you guys are ok, the wind and rain coming down like that is scary. Can you tell me what was in your salad, it looked great.

[@AnnmarieNaimo]

Glad you are safe, we are in Fort Myers and that wind was wicked, my daughter and son In law are in Davenport thankfully they were okay also.

[@rsg587]

If you are on city water and sewer you don’t have to worry about the toilets not working when power goes out. But if the lift stations quit working they won’t work either way. I would contact your water and sewer company to find out for sure what happens when the power goes out. 😊

[@svarels]

Glad you're both safe. So scary.

[@jeremymcquality241]

for a fun watch you should look up the old show "Storm Chasers". It follows Reed Timmer chasing tornados with his old Dominator. Great watch. He has been professionally chasing for years.

Kyle, if you have a tornado 🌪️ go into a closet or a bathroom that doesn’t have any windows 🪟. I lived in Wichita Kansas so I know what you should do.

[@MegaMillionsMike]

Stay safe, my fellow Floridians 🌞

[@amyanderson8969]

As previously stated, I do claims for Allstate. No one ever takes my advice, but here goes anyway. At some point you need to check your gutter straps and make sure they are still tight. If you heard banging all night from your gutters, there is a chance the straps may have loosened. Just double check to be sure.

[@Joseph-kb8eo]

Don't need to call your insurance over one shingle get over your self and do it by your self or do you not k ow how to fix it? Wow

[@juliemark5764]

I am in Port Saint Lucie and have experienced a lot of hurricanes but never anything like this. The non stop tornado warnings! We were literally surrounded by tornadoes for several hours. Terrifying.

[@terancedecker-harris1041]

I'm glad you guys are safe. Next time, pay attention to the news, but dont stay there 24/7. That just makes the panic worse. Keep it on in the background and find a project to pass the time. We have tornadoes and flash floods here all the time, and calm is your friend in the long run, which helps you make better decisions if that time comes. You did a lot of good things. I've never had sandbags, so I'm not sure why you can't keep them.

[@Centralviperking9628]

I was praying for you the whole time ❤️

[@michelleduckett22]

You’ll be able to flush the toilet without power. Don’t worry about that part. That’s done if you don’t have water.

community came together yesterday for sure

[@komosatp]

Roof gutters are meant to move water away from the basement, so water doesn’t make it’s way in. Florida homes generally don’t have basements, so no need for gutters.

[@Rj650k]

Reed Timmer, he is probably in his Tornado Intercept Vehicle called the domanator

the safest place for a tornado in your house is probably the garage since its constructed with concrete block. the weak point is the big garage door but that locks.
