8 am Wednesday, Florida time. Things are eerily calm and quiet.
These guys will go live around 3p ET today and have a great combined feed of many cameras and other authoritative weather sources. No commercials or corporate sponsors, just a bunch of passionate weather nerds:
Was going to post them too, love their stuff.
They’ve turned me into a weather junkie.
Also, my parents live on Siesta Key, so I do have some personal interest. Thankfully they’ve evacuated to Savannah for this one.
Oh my! Glad they’re out of there. Have you been watching the live stream? Soooo many tornado warnings going off the last hour or so!!!
Yeah, I’ve been glued to their stream all day. This is absolutely insane.
Watching now and I added the link to the megathread. Thanks!
It’s quiet today at work. So I tuned in. Holy moly some of these tornadoes look unpleasant.
Tonight is movie night in Tampa Bay! They are showing “Gone with the Wind” everywhere…
I got a screenshot of these idiots just at it was fading out, but I felt the need to share:
Edit: Jesus, now they’re bringing their kids down to the beach. In case you were weren’t aware that there are some dumb fucking people in Florida…
What’s the likelihood these cameras even stay up?
At what point? There’s a long time between now and landfall. And probably not every camera is going to get destroyed at landfall. But the rain will probably be falling too hard to see anything for a while.
But webcams have certainly lasted through other hurricanes. Remember that many of them are pretty firmly bolted down because they have to be ready for just regular old thunderstorm high winds.
Low. Very low. Here’s the feed right now:
I think it was a storm in NY where I was watching a webcam where this happened: The image was shaking like mad for some time, and suddenly the road rapidly approached the camera…
thanks for posting this. sent the link in my friends group chat and now were all watching it together like some kind of morbid Nintendo Direct, but instead of new games we’re just talking about all the people from the stream who seem to be pretending nothing is wrong
