Have you experienced something similar in your life? I remember growing up in Florida and having hurricanes miss us even though we did all the prep. I also remember hurricanes suddenly turning into us and everyone being caught off guard. And most people, will most definitely be caught off guard.

Back in 2003 we had brief power failure for three days, in Toronto. None of us had any food at all stacked, not even water. Next day my friends took me shopping, I bought something stupid.. it was a havoc in store, three hours wait in line, cash only and so on.. That was a freaking good lesson. Now, thanks to you and other preppers, slowly settling my self for 6+ months food, water filtration, still got to make birch tar..(I got only tin cans, no steel, haven’t tried yet). medical and clothing wise (some information from medieval research is useful also) Imagine, 10-15 years into #shtf, what are we going to wear??? Biggest dilemma and most important so far is a community.

I don't see "nothing happened" as a disappointment. It's far and away the preferred outcome. I don't want to have to use my preps. Ever. Nor do I think it's healthy or realistic to live in a hyper-vigilant state to the exclusion of daily living. The skills and supplies should be maintained but largely in the background. The storm that misses is a good opportunity to do a sort of post-game and make sure you have what you need, you can find it, it's in good working order etc.

What a beautiful landscape. The view certainly lifts the soul. Thanks for sharing!

You're absolutely right! Be glad that nothing happened, but be confident that you are as prepared as you can be in case. The down side to this is that the non-preppers, the ones who see no point in what we all try to do, use this as jabs against us. "See, nothing happened!"

Always good to remember having your preps collect dust is the best case scenario not the worst.

They control the weather via geoengineering and multiple other avenues so yes in fact they can predict the weather

Commiefornia had a 8 hour "planned" power outage last Thursday. A little prepping goes a long way

It’s hard to stay ready when some community creators are constantly screaming daily “the sky is falling, red alert, emergency alert, (hoard not horde - stupid autocarrot) these items now!”. Be ready but don’t live in constant fear because of some content creator with questionable “news”.

Wise advice. I have a friend who lived through the TX Freeze Out a couple of years ago, knows about TPTB fanning the flames of WWIII, food shortages, etc, and won't prep because nothing is happening and she doesn't want clutter in her house. I'm almost 2000 miles away, cannot help her. It's really hard to watch this, the "nothing happened" bias is strong. When it actually does happen, it will be too late.

That was a good practice run. There was a time when i was a kid growing up in Iowa, a huge storm came through another town, taking out a portion of that town. Many years later, I was 19 and watched tornados surrounding the town i was in. These tornados went in a clockwork formation around that town. Never actually hitting it, tearing through the farmland. You never know how a storm will act. Just like those who are in the world. we will not know until things happen, if they will happen or where they will happen, even what will actually happen. All we can do is use the information that we have at the time to the best of our ability. This is why it is so important to seek information and then decern that information to the best of our abilities. You, sir. did right by your family. Familiy first. The heck with what others thinks.

These kind of videos are greatly appreciated

Probably your best message to date

Great advice always be ready even when nothing happens. Thank you.

So, this is a time to get your own boat radar and make your own determination if a storm situation is on a collision course with your house. You can also use the radar to determine is somebody is carrying any metal longer than 12 inches towards your house. You can also see cars two miles out. These are the advantages of living in a crop field.

Good intel dude

Drills are good. It is necessary to include evaluation. Everyone involved can contribute, the goal being how can we do this better. All phases. I live in Kansas. Sirens mean go outside. Until it really happens. Wear sturdy shoes into the shelter. Craps gonna be everywhere.

I'm up near Crosby. We ended up with a spit of mist. We had our go bags packed and ready for the situation, the town sent out fact school was open as shelter. I learned We don't even have radar coverage for them to say. So every one these watches and warnings are something they are guessing.

Always loved Bing’s voice.

Thank goodness alert system still works After #shtf we won’t have the same advantage.

appreciate the information. might not be nothing this time, but next time it could be something. in the 60's notice was only minutes.

Just a couple of hours ago, we had a t-storm warning here in Virginia, and to take shelter. Being from Texas, I know the storms here aren't nothing compared to there. BUT- after it blew through, we had a mobile home collapse, 2 trees reported down and 2 residential fires. All within a quarter mile of me. I was expecting nothing, but something happened. I stay prepared, so if anything had happened, it would have been handled.

I live in tornado alley, and I've seen a day this year that tornado outbreaks was high, and only 4 tornadoes came from those storms. We've had 104 tornadoes this year, so far. 34 in 1 day, on April 27th, and they predicted that pretty much on the money. Texas is a bit ahead at 112 so far. I take them serious, but I'm ready. All my firearms, ammo, 2 sleeping bags, 2 wool blankets, food, water, small generator go in the above ground shelter every spring, and stay there till mid June, maybe early July. A pain to put that in there, I built shelving to store it. TV in there, battery radio, starlink. What a pain each year to put that crap in there. The NWS is not always on the ball, I've saw tornadoes on the ground for up to 3 minutes before they put out alerts, and some have not even made the tornado warning. I watch to see if storms heading my way have a history of producing funnels or tornadoes, go from there.

Most provocative title ever! ;) Nice video (as usual).

We had a flood in Albuquerque last night. It missed us completely.

Good video.

I hope everyone is thankful that they only had a practice run, whew.

We got two raindrops 5 miles south people lost whole farms.

bad stuff always comes out of left field

Take advantage of good weather to do as many outside vids as you can. It will be a frozen tundra in no time.

With the background noise, I thought a field mouse had gotten into my pickup while listening to this

Outside is always better when weather permits.

Here in nebraska theres either big hype for nothing or a discreet cell blows up. Max Velocity covered a storm by Whitman, NE the almost didnt get warned on what turned out to be an active almost EF4. Thwy went with a 3 because a sub par construcyion building was hit and they couldnt make that fit the metrics.

All will be fine.

Those of us who grew up before Al Gore put all these pipes together simply called these events "today's weather". Blizzards, tornadoes, hurricanes, extreme temperatures... All that was just normal everyday life. Here it is kids, grab the radio, candles and let's play a board game.

You know the white hair is where an angel blessings happened.

I don't listen to the weather guy on our channel 12 anymore. He's an alarmist! But my friend up in NY state listens to him, and never knew that overnight could be up to 6" of snow an hour. I knew that, but we were only predicted about a foot of snow. I listen to NOAA. My friend woke up to 44" of snow! Anyway, I do certain things before a potential power outage, 99-percent of the time the power stays on, but that 1-percent, I'm really happy to have done a few things in advance, especially concerning taking care of livestock, having plenty of ice for coolers, water tanks, extra buckets of water, that sort of thing. If the power is only going to be off for a few hours, I'm not messing with a generator running to pull water out of the well. TIP: Have water in a container with a spigot so you can put it on the edge of the sink to wash your hands.

Radar omega is your friend. After watching storm chasing streams for years, sometimes the SPC is just wrong, even they have laid a few eggs this year.

Where I live, we have air sirens that used to go off ONLY if there was a known tornado incoming in the area. Someone in their "infinite wisdom" changed that so that the sirens go off now to ANY bad weather. The stupid sirens are always going off and I have no clue what to think, other than it's bad weather.
