STRANGE WEATHER only Pilots Get to See - SHOWN BY CAPTAIN JOE

[@stephenbritton9297]

I've seen St Elmo's Fire on a ship. Middle of the night near an intense thunder storm. Felt an electric buzz in the air, looked around, and there was a blue glow outside the bridge. On top of a small antenna sat a blue ball of light!

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Wow! That must have been an amazing sight!

[@AirJoe]

You don't only see new weather. You see weather in a different way. Before becoming a glider pilot i would have never stared at clouds so much 😂

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

I know the feeling ;)

[@adrianpeters2413]

Totally agree ..I allways looked at clouds all my life , now learning to fly gliders , and clouds are a story in themselves ...ha ha ...I see people looking down a lot ( u.k. island life) myself allways looking at the clouds ha ha 😂😂😂😂

[@sncy5303]

💯. Best part of an IFR flight is when you get an altitude that's just right to "cloud surf".

[@AirJoe]

@sncy5303 oh yes so cool!

[@jacquesclouseau2274]

Absolutely true!

[@AirJoe]

3:30 glider pilots love riding lenticulars. Look out for them 😆

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

So I hear, yes :)

[@Ztbmrc1]

Awesome footage, especially these strange cloud formations.

[@ccrraaiigg0831]

Hail - The Silent Danger. Sounds like the title of a thriller movie.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Haha, true that :)

[@samspade2131]

Best “fireworks” show I ever saw was from a 727 somewhere over the eastern US. A heat lightening show in the dead of night that had the most amazing colors. Lasted about 15 minutes until we flew past it.

[@larshanhart7138]

Your consistent spelling and pronunciation of "phenomenon" as "phenonemon" made me actually consider if I misread and -heard that word in both English and German for my entire life.

[@chuckvanderbildt]

There are still a few things left for you to keep an eye on, like upper atmospheric lightning such as sprites and jets!

[@BluefearHere]

We had 3 days of those Narceous clouds in the UK in 2024. Extremely fortunate to have seen them

[@Stopaclotion]

When I was at a beach in Tintagel, I took a photo of the sunset just as that green flash appeared - a really beautiful moment.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Cool that you expierenced that!

[@matthiaslipinsky501]

We sometimes have lenticularis clouds over swiss alps. I watch them from a cessna cockpit

[@vivekchoudhury6648]

While definitely not strange, simple high altitude Cirrus clouds are one of my favorites! These so called "fair weather clouds" impart a very pleasant look to the blue skies. Also, Cirrus clouds are a good indicator that contrails might form, resulting in a perfect day for some high altitude plane spotting!

[@ahmedmahomed]

Wow 👌🏼 nice video, Joe! 😊 🫡

[@loebair]

incredible vidoe, thank you!

[@loiswhite503]

How beautiful , reminds me of a story a pilot called joe , told Me , I will never forget , about flying through the cloud's above the storm , seeing a beautiful sunset or a rare beauty . I've seen the morning glory , I'm Aussie , . Cloud surfing , mate , I could watch that over and over , press my face on plane widow . I will be so happy , ❤️ it jb

[@JoeSneaker]

After all these years, I still love that outro song!!!

[@dairyair6634]

Interesting video! Have you seen the aurora borealis (northern lights) or aurora australis (southern lights) from altitude?

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Yes I have, but that's not a weather phenomena !

[@johnkem2630]

Good overview of these phenomenon Joe. Thanks.

[@BB63]

Excellent video.

[@allezvenga7617]

Thanks for your sharing

[@NicolaW72]

Thank you very much for this very interesting and informative tutorial!🙂👍

[@karinpopp]

Guten Morgen,liebe Joi deine Videos sind sehr schön.❤

[@Cars-N-Jets]

Yeah another Captain Joe video!

[@laratheplanespotter]

I can never say the word phenomenal 😂. Also 1:48 Bird or Biro? 😂

[@hachogonzalez8649]

V V V V - Done! Soooo looking forward to my next flight, its still magic to me

[@Cutedge2]

You should see the dirt storms that approach Amarillo Texas from a jet. Especially when you are holding at the FAF waiting for its event horizon to pass the airport boundary so the 180 degree wind shift is over to make landing possible.

[@JupiterMan12.000]

✈️✈️✈️Amazing Footages✈️✈️✈️

[@johnburgess2084]

Those were great; thank you!

[@laratheplanespotter]

Also (#2) I remember when a volcano erupted in Iceland in 2010. I got a week off college cause my teachers got stuck in Spain. I definitely didn’t complain about that. I got a bonus holiday 😂

[@vroonnn]

Can’t wait to be a pilot ..btw all because of you Cpt Joe

[@jackreed3445]

A Cessna 182 we bought had been in a hail storm and was peppered with small dents. It didn't affect the flying and saved us a lot of money due to it looking less than pristene. I sure do miss that plane.

[@neiloflongbeck5705]

Heat lightning is any lightning or lightning-induced illumination too far away for thunder to be heard. Heat lightning got its name because it is often seen on hot summer nights when thunderstorms are common. What you have described is sheet lightning.

[@sncy5303]

My favorite clouds are Kelvin-Helmholtz clouds... (I'd avoid flying on a day they appear, though).

[@hammadshut4368]

Do pilots ever get bored sitting on cruise on long 8-10 hour flights, especially at night ?

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Nope! Always something to do!

[@Izmael1310]

Yes

[@Techwithshort-yw]

Heyy joe captain l want to be pilot can u help me with that

[@KevinDC5]

That microburst in Dallas brought down that one flight on final some years ago. very hard to maintain control in those dynamic conditions!

[@patatoothie]

2:02 Hey Captain, if you've seen them, how bright are they? Are they dazzling or just distracting?

[@dno8025]

Off topic question if you would be so kind - If you don't provide and control input for 30 or more minutes, do you get a Pilot Response EICAS message? What is an EICAS message?

[@ConstantlyDamaged]

Huh. Every flight I've ever been on (not a lot, and all domestic), they had us keep our belts on all the time when not getting up. Seems a lot saner, tbh.

[@katemakeuplooks]

Hi Joe, this is a great video but in all videos I’m always distracted by how great your English accent is. I’ve lived in Munich for 18 years now but I’m originally from Liverpool in northwestern England. That means I’ve heard countless German people speaking English. Your accent is great because you’re not trying to be “posh English” and speak with received pronunciation, but rather your accent sounds like a neutral regional accent, which is how most ordinary people sound. Anyway, great job and great channel! Greetings from London 😊

[@Valentin_MeL]

That 747 who flown into volcanic ash, the pilots saved the situation, because they decended lower where they were able to restart the engines.

[@NicolaW72]

Indeed.

[@SumatraXSI5]

On the clear air turbulence video example you put at 9:36, I can see some lenticular clouds in the distance. Are they somehow related? Or is that a clip that would have explained the dangers of getting close to these types of clouds rather than as an example far CATs?

[@patatoothie]

5:13 called "Wetterleuchten" (weather lighting) in german

[@karinpopp]

Wahnsinn.Da muss man die Nerven bewahren.😮

[@neiloflongbeck5705]

Wave clouds are loved by glider/sailplane pilots. The world record sailplane flights can only happen in wave.

[@SirThanksalot_1]

When I check the National Weather Service website, they say the Heat Lightning is only related to distance and sound, not the type of lightning...

[@Youtube_kontot]

When things are about to get turbulent you better have your sick bag ready, right Joe? ;)

[@NicolaW72]

And in the best case you´ve your seatbelt fastened.

[@foxfrombergen]

Danke für das schöne Video!

[@5khop]

00:11 “Phenonema” -Captain Joe

[@danielduarte6086]

Tubular clouds❤❤❤

[@BobSmith-ew5oi]

If you look closely at my sunrise profile picture will see the green flash in all its splendour. That at exact millisecond of sunrise when single sunbeam land at my feet.Previous frames have glow to right in middle of road so progresses east with sunrise country to rotation.

[@override87]

Green flashes: Disney took this idea for Pirates of the Caribbean

[@PrasadCalifornia]

Did anyone else hear Joe calling it “Yaw” dropping weather in an opening statement? 😂

[@ryanyoung7170]

Morning glory is something else in the UK lol

[@luisoliveira601]

What's up with the NY cap and the little buddha figure? On a layover between New York and Bangkok? :) cheers!

[@GarrettWorcester]

Me: I open the video, see a hat lying on the bed, and have to avert visual contact by covering up that part of the screen for the remainder. It's (allegedly, but true) terrible luck putting a hat on a bed, to begin with, but a NY Yankees hat might alienate half your audience, to boot! 😬

[@andreiovidiu5974]

Why do some planes have such high turbulence?

[@RobSchellinger]

Really? You didn't use St Elmo's Fire by John Parr?

[@luissimmons654]

Captain dose small planes carry stransponders?

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Yes they do!

[@naeemsheikh4597]

How long have you been a first officer? Maybe one day you'll become a captain and the channel will be correctly named It is a bit naughty calling yourself captain, when you're not

[@noedum]

Phenomenon, phenomena

[@ТамараВолкова-н5ы]

Thank you! But it's not the question of the weather... At all...

[@AVIATIONSOUNDEXPERT]

@Joe This video is also worth it to be mentioned. An A330 of probably Saudia or Qatar Airways is taxiing for takeoff in a sandstorm. The pilots are scared and say islamic prayers in arabic! They pray to God for protection. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6mboK2dq6eCbpofeature=shared

[@catherinesarah5831]

🦘🇦🇺 Check your sarcasm Joe. Chem trails are a thing. It doesn’t take too much to research. Start with your 3 letter agencies. 🙏

[@Insane823]

0:02 😂

[@fZionists78]

Geoengineering is what’s happening. If the weather wasn’t unpredictable enough… Leave it to the government to make things much worse.

[@thegoodwhichway]

Thank you for saying something.. sad how most people are entirely oblivious 😥 they won't be for long though! Time to Wake Up buttercup!

[@m0r1k]

😻😻😻

[@JasonAWilliams-IS]

Yankee's hat? Come on man. Thought you had class.

[@BradleyWellington-gt4ex]

CAT can only happen above 15000 feet

[@TaylrTownsnd]

Video is too quiet

[@JupiterMan12.000]

A Reason why i no longer Fly Bad Weather✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️🤢🤢🤢😪😪😪😪😪😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@TarasZpilot]

I was waiting for that last phenomenon: clear air turbulence. Caught me by surprise once in my Cessna and my seatbelt saved me from going through the liner. Weather is always important in flying. A degree in meteorology should be mandatory.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Good that you wore a seatbelt!!

[@pavel00995]

Fenonema

[@Baguswolf100]

YA Aku yang

[@albersonik]

Hi, what great videos you upload👍, I would like to ask you to make a video about UFOs, have you seen any in flight? Do you know of other pilots who have seen them? It would be an interesting video, greetings 👍

[@xyzaero]

NOCTILUCENT CLOUDS at 260.000 feet are about the coolest thing I have seen 🤩 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noctilucent_cloud

[@arnolda.lampel6087]

No No No, you got it all wrong. Those are all the old cover-up versions. Today's internet reveals how it really is: GeoEngineering 😂😊
