4. Turn around, do not drown. This is the slogan from the National Weather Service to let people know not to drive into flooding waters. Flooding and flash flooding is the number one killer when it comes to severe weather. It only takes two feet of water to float a vehicle. You probably have seen the photos and even the videos on the web. You know some crazy person just drove into water. Pretty soon there was a merge. That is another thing you might pick up, if you do living in an area that is prone for flooding or you never know when you need it.
It is a little device that, I do not know what are these things are called really Ponzy have get one and we have in our glove compartment. It is made so that you can put it up against like a glass, like a window and press the button and it will shadow a glass. There is no other way of breaking a glass especially if you are in a submerge vehicle and you need to get out. You should have one of these things like five bucks or what ever it is but you can either. It is either sense likes a electronic shocks or you just top it and it will, it design through shatter glass specifically the glass that as used in cars on the windows or the wind shield. So have the equipment in the car as well.
5. Lightning is the second deadliest aspect of severe weather. Lighting is very dangerous, as it can generate over 1 billion volts and carry up to 40,000 amps.
Male: It is never how to do it on the episode of the myth busters as well.
Chris: Yes they did do that on myth busters. And I am connected with one of the myth busters. We are on the mutual discussion as together on the internets. Temperature can reach up to 54,000°F. When severe weather is occurring, sometimes more than a billion lightning strikes can occur same time. Never be outside at the same time. I think like you know possibly over the duration of that storm. That because that would be a lot at the same time. Never be outside when it is lightning. Lightning tends to strike the tallest object and follow a path of least resistance. A good structure with grounding will protect you. Staying in a car will also protect you. Never stand under a tree or tall object and do not be out on the water while it is lightning out and usually when it is lightning there is also rain so the chances you not standing in water. You are pretty much in trouble, that is kind of what it blows down to you.
6. Have your safety supplies in waterproof container and ready for quick response.
7. After the severe weather has passed, if there is any damage, notify your insurance company as soon as possible.
They detail a bit more I have skipped bits and pieces of it because it is very long, long list. But weather something we all have to deal with, I mean we lived on earth. I mean every planet has weather. Even the sun has weather; in fact we should try getting the filth plate about astronomer to talk about us the weather on the sun. Anyway, you know if you are geek and you know things about weather apparently you are not alone. There are tons of people here at the chat room. Who are also interested in weather some people follow it. Do not ask me why it is not my imagination. If you know how to create software you can use the weather bug API to create you own software. That how I am getting the weather, this is a live weather from my area place right on my video because it is incorporated into came to us. He look at the API, which is the application programming interface it is the code that a developer could look at and go “oh, I could include your program in my program and then will make it better cool”. That what he did, that is how you get the weather. It is neat tools. There is an even icon but I do not have the icons to turn on right now. See that is what the F stands for, it does not mean I am failing or flunking Fahrenheit.
My email address is chrispirillio.com maybe you have other safety tips whether it is related to weather or not, just safety in general maybe how relates to tech. It might be helpful as well and you also welcome to swing by the chat room. Hopefully that when it is storming out and you do not want to be plug in maybe he got some got wireless internet connection and then you are not like some kind Y Max’s service and you are not relying on electricity locally to get online you could still on line and chat with us. Of course if it is fair weather the last thing I want you to do is chat with me. I want you seeking shelter, play it safe. No chat room on the entire planet is worth risking your life for. Although I got tell you it would be interesting to have this guy live streams from storm chasing because that is about as closes I want to get.
The chat room by the way because you do not figured it out by now is always open we are typically talking tech 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at live.pirillo.com. See you later.
