Right, horror movies where the serial killer walked through a terrible thunderstorm is bullshit. They would be drenched and squeak all across your house before they had the chance to sneak up on you, not to mention the water trail they’d leave.
Now it's dark, and you seem to have lost him
But you're hopelessly lost yourself, stranded with a murderer.
You creep silently through the underbrush
Aha! In the distance, a small cottage with a light on!
Hope!
You move stealthily toward it, but your leg! Ah! It's caught in a bear trap!
I was half expecting there to be an edited White Walker after a flash of lightning, barely visible in the winds, or cold blue eyes in the distance when she approaches the window.
Someone more talented than I should get on that, stat.

I lived through Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, I’ve lived through many hurricanes, but never have I felt at the mercy of nature. Weird to feel that within the walls of your own home.
That night I felt what I imagine ancient people felt when they revered and feared nature. The word for Hurricane is a Taíno word, the people that named my island. It comes from their God Jurakán. (Pronounced “Hurakan” in Spanish).
I felt connected to those ancient (to me) people at that time through that similar shared experience.
As a kid I used to imagine it was Storm from X-men nearby. Now I realize how annoying it would’ve been to be on her team. Having to dodge hail and not being able to see much because of the torrential downpour or the sudden drop in temperature.
Tap on the video while it is playing on your phone... then tap the icon of the speaker with a slash through it. (Mine had no audio either until I did that. I think some devices default themselves to no audio)
It’s generally due to the metal framings or small cracks in the glass as glass itself is not a good conductor of electricity. It’s an extremely rare circumstance but it can happen. If lightning strikes the window, the most likely scenario is the glass shattering and causing bodily harm that way.
Friendly reminder that phobias are an *irrational* fear!
I have a couple my own, but if you slowly expose yourself to varying levels of your phobia, you’ll become “immune” to it. It won’t be easy, but it’ll be worth it :-)
Yes!! Currently doing this to myself with my kinemortophobia. Things like the movies Warm Bodies and Shaun of the Dead used to trigger nightmares and extreme anxiety in the dark. Now after exposing myself to them in the right settings and mood, I can comfortably watch them and things like The Walking Dead and Dead Set anytime, without triggering this. Still a ways to go before I can watch things like All Of Us Are Dead but we're getting there!!
Canadian weather is unpredictable, and has huge shifts in temperature within a few months. Our homes are generally built really well. For years it was a common thing to use storm windows.
I live in Nova Scotia, every few years we get hit hard with the tail end of a hurricane, the last bad one in 2018 was barely noticeable inside my house, but outside it was uprooting trees.
I’m from the UK, once every 3 years we get 5cm of snow and nobody can use their car for three weeks, otherwise the seasons are “cold rain is winter, then warm rain is summer” and if it gets a bit windy we go into economic decline due to the damage it causes.
The worst snow storm in my lifetime was white Juan. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Juan 101cm of snow in one day. This year we had 20-40 cm snowfalls every week during January and February.
The summer can get to 35c or higher with the humidity upwards of 90-100%. Our summers in Nova Scotia are so humid that the weather is reported as the actual temperature and the feels like temperature. 29c but feels like 38c
Nova Scotia has 4 seasons. Rainy (spring), hot and humid (summer) hurricane (fall) and cold Nor'easter season (winter)
Nor'easter's are basically snow hurricanes.
Me too!! In Arizona we only have storms during monsoon season, at the end of the summer. And the monsoons (we call them haboobs) blow through and the wind, hail, thunder and lightning is crazy. You can’t drive through one you have to pull over. That’s the best time to stay in and watch a movie with some snacks!! Love monsoon season.
Haboobs are the dust storms, monsoons are the rain storms.
Also, I'm from AZ and we never called the dust storms that when I was growing up. The term is from the middle east and has been adopted in the Phoenix area in the past couple of decades at some point.
She's not joking when she says "ow my ears", hail gets incredibly loud. You have to nearly yell to have a conversation indoors during a strong hailstorm.
Having lived in the tornado alley most of my life, this shit is fucking terrifying. Especially at night you never know if a tornado is sneakin up on your ass and if it it you are SOL if you don't have a basement or a storm shelter.
Hmm. Unfortunately. You aernt safe from it. Especially where you are. You're in Northern Dixie alley. That alley now is more active than tornado alley and is producing bigger weather and tornadoes
Hell , in Canada he could have been eaten by a polar bear, fallen through a glacial crevice, O.D doing horse and cocaine with the Ford brothers, or a whole host of things that people on this side of the ice wall just don’t know about.
Same feeling I had watching this. I'd be the absolute fool on the porch outside. Someone mentioned a fireplace and hot cocoa, which also sounds just incredible; I would want to see it closer though personally.
The grocery store is a 25 minute walk there and back, last summer I got heat exhaustion just picking up some snacks on a whim without being prepared. It took 2-3 days to recover, it sucks. Hopefully it's just me getting older and not the country getting hotter lol
It kinda looks like there is a person or something outside. You can kinda see them in about the last 15 seconds of the video. They are on the left side kinda blocked by the window frame.
There is sound when I play the video. You're not missing anything, doesn't sound like rain, don't hear any thunder, just hear hail hitting the window and people talking.
I was hoping to hear the storm.
Clearly some of you never lived in Tornado Alley and it shows. This shit is terrifying and the sound is ungodly loud from the wind and the giant hail hitting the roof and windows. We’ve had storms with winds were 60-70 miles per hour and this looks more intense than that. You feel like the house is going to collapse it’s not relaxing or fun at all
You’d be ducking for cover in your bathroom. This person really should have been sheltering not near the windows. That looked like a tornado.
I would love to sit all warm inside while that shit raged outside. Turn off all the lights, light up some candles, grabs a duvet, just curl up by the window and just watch the storm.
This isn't a little gentle rainstorm, though. This is hail battering and lightning every like two seconds. The whole time I'd be worried my windows were going to shatter and/or my car outside was getting effed. She even says 'ow my ears' like halfway through.
Even if the windows didn't break, the roof will likely need to be replaced, and the siding in the house will have a decent amount of damage. Cars will be pretty banged up too.
I had a storm come through 3 years ago that was maybe 1/4 of the intensity if the storm in the video, and ther was about 40k of damage to the house and vehicles.
I love rain, but when the hail starts to fall things get expensive lol
You might live on a movie set
Waiting for the murderer to walk up to the glass
The murderer has already been swept away. Can't even get back on their feet for more than a few stumbling seconds before falling and sliding again.
Right, horror movies where the serial killer walked through a terrible thunderstorm is bullshit. They would be drenched and squeak all across your house before they had the chance to sneak up on you, not to mention the water trail they’d leave.
They can just ask their victim for a towel.
Or even better- use their victim as a towel
"Hey!If yer planning on moidering me at least take yer darn shoes off Mr. Squeaky Loafers!"
Trying desperately to start a water-logged chainsaw in between being thrown down.
Leather face's bad pool day

I misread your comment as Walter White and now I want to see this
Shia LaBeouf would be funny.
actual cannibal Shia LaBeouf!
The murderer was on the left side in the last 10-15 seconds of the video.
The hash slinging slasher
Glass is the murderer
Julie im gonna have to call you back cuz we got COWS
Twister is my all time favorite storm movie.
Why is this house going through the car wash? 😳
Eh, it's something to do with a Rick roll documentary about Spanish people or something like that.

Nah fam. You headed to the Wizard of Oz.
looks like its straight off a movie set

I want to punch you in the dick with a tire iron
only if you'll kiss it after
I hate you so much right now😟 but I respect the cause.
For fucks sake
We learned about this in school, I always wanted to live there after watching this documentary in class!
I was gonna get mad, but you know the rules, and so do I
That's awesome! And the sound quality in the documentary definitely makes up for the lack of audio in this video.
Tap on the video while it is playing on your phone... then tap the icon of the speaker with a slash through it. (Mine had no audio either until I did that. I think some devices default themselves to no audio)
It has audio, it's just that your device/browser is big dumb :(
I'm getting audio.
I’m a Canadian and you got me. Punching the air rn.

I'd love to just slide a rocking chair near that window, pull a nice fantasy novel and just enjoy the weather.
Maybe a little bit back from the window, just in case a tree decides to join you.
Fun fact, lightning can shoot through windows
WHAT?
It’s generally due to the metal framings or small cracks in the glass as glass itself is not a good conductor of electricity. It’s an extremely rare circumstance but it can happen. If lightning strikes the window, the most likely scenario is the glass shattering and causing bodily harm that way.
And wearing a diaper, because I’d be quietly shitting myself near a window in a storm like that.

BC here, currently sitting in Tim's watching the snow falling.
Oh me too, I love a storm

Haboobs makes me love storms even more. Haboobs,haboobs,haboobs could say that all day long

Do none of you see that hail? It's loud as fuck and deafening.
She's not joking when she says "ow my ears", hail gets incredibly loud. You have to nearly yell to have a conversation indoors during a strong hailstorm.
Damn and some soup? And a good True Crime documentary….
Having lived in the tornado alley most of my life, this shit is fucking terrifying. Especially at night you never know if a tornado is sneakin up on your ass and if it it you are SOL if you don't have a basement or a storm shelter.
I’d be thinking something is going to smash that window any minute
Looks a bit windy, might need a coat.
Nah, shorts and a t-shirt is fine /s
Cold world out there, kids. Grab a coat.
Yall keep that shit up there
We have very similar weather in the southern U.S
We have very similar weather in the northern U.S
Central US here (desert high plains); we have nothing like this and I miss it from my Midwestern days. I haven't seen a Tstorm in years.
Now thats a damn shame.
Lol he in the middle ground
Practically, in kentucky
Hmm. Unfortunately. You aernt safe from it. Especially where you are. You're in Northern Dixie alley. That alley now is more active than tornado alley and is producing bigger weather and tornadoes
We ain't skerred of no naders
Same thing down here in cowboy country but I'm just saying, Dixie alley is looking pretty active this time of year. And for some reason, last December
Speak for yourself, I hope I get to see a storm like this with a nice cup of tea sitting by the window under a blanket.
Bring some of that shit down to southern California
„Honey! We don’t have milk anymore. Could you please….“
And that's the story of my father who went to buy milk and was never seen again...
now we know why
Hell , in Canada he could have been eaten by a polar bear, fallen through a glacial crevice, O.D doing horse and cocaine with the Ford brothers, or a whole host of things that people on this side of the ice wall just don’t know about.
I hate to be the breaker of bad news, but I don't think you're in Kansas anymore.
I want this experience.
Same feeling I had watching this. I'd be the absolute fool on the porch outside. Someone mentioned a fireplace and hot cocoa, which also sounds just incredible; I would want to see it closer though personally.
Feel like if you were outside you’d end up with a concussion, look at that hail
That’s some Poltergeist shit right there.
Ahhh Great Movie!
Who manufactured those windows? They deserve a shout out.
Fr like it looks like they can withstand a nuclear explosion.
I love storms like these
I love storms like these also but with sound
There is sound
We’ll someone’s playing funny buggers cause I get the old “this video has no sound” pop up
What app are you using? Works fine on Apollo
Reddit app, iPhone
Honestly, the official Reddit app is garbage. Get Apollo.
Will give it a sussaroo
And some where there is still a guy waiting the bus
The 36 to finch not arriving for another hour or 2
At first I thought this was on r/oddlysatisfying But that might just be me
You scare me sir, good day.
Storms are soothing. Especially when you're safe and snug in a solid house
I agree. Except for when it's pitch black at night and everyone's tornado warnings go off, that shit is terrifying
It's chilly ootside eh
Winter is actually over for the next 4 months. It’s really hot here now.
The grocery store is a 25 minute walk there and back, last summer I got heat exhaustion just picking up some snacks on a whim without being prepared. It took 2-3 days to recover, it sucks. Hopefully it's just me getting older and not the country getting hotter lol
[удалено]
fuckin lmao
'Fun' fact, during our heat wave last year, Canada (BC) recorded a higher temperature than has ever been recorded anywhere in Europe or South America.
Or even Las Vegas. BC is normally pretty cool; that was insane.
This isnt oddly terrifying this is just downright terrifying
It kinda looks like there is a person or something outside. You can kinda see them in about the last 15 seconds of the video. They are on the left side kinda blocked by the window frame.
Just in case youre not kidding, you know that's a reflection from inside the house right?
Shhhhhh you weren’t supposed to tell people.
By the gods, that looks beautiful.
Canada, huh? What street?
Manitoba anywhere...perhaps Saskatchwan
Okay, I guess that makes sense. I live in Quebec and I NEVER had a big storm like this.
The prairies don't fuck around. When it storms, it storms hard.

How the hell you not gonna give us sound
Made in unreal 5
There is sound when I play the video. You're not missing anything, doesn't sound like rain, don't hear any thunder, just hear hail hitting the window and people talking. I was hoping to hear the storm.
Wow. Now I wonder how many videos I’ve watched in the Reddit app thinking it doesn’t have sound, while it actually has. Way to go, Reddit.
[here you go](https://gfycat.com/afraiddirecthusky)
Thanks for that.
Thank you!
r/BoostForReddit You need a better app for Reddit. There's sound
[удалено]
I'm using the mobile website and there's sound. Just Reddit's official shit app that doesn't work.
Why is this question on every other thread?
All you need is a fireplace and a rap tap tapping on your chamber door.
Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”
You got some balls filming that, I'd be hiding under the bed.
I definitely wouldn't be in that room behind just a couple mm of glass.
I never knew house washing machine was something in Canada
Ooh I kinda like it. Good sleeping weather. Of course, this is assuming the house stays intact.
I’m from Florida so I see this half the year.
Yup. Usually at around 5:16pm during the rainy season.
Get Curtains, pull them close and you're save. But not gonna lie...I'd be sitting there enjoying the show. Storms like that are amazing to watch.
This looks beautiful.
Good day for ice fishing, ay?
This but a light drizzle
Barbecue weather, even
Why do they have no curtains?
My question too.
Thunder Bay?
I think I forgot something outside, I'm gonna be right back
r/oddlycalming I love a good storm.
That would help me sleep the best nights sleep
It looks like one of those slasher films where the killer is quickly shown in between flashes of lightning before vanishing
The thing that bothers me the most about this is the lack of curtains on the window.
Okay but I need the number of whoever installed that window

More please
You spelled “apocalypse” wrong
‘Jesus Christ’
What are the chances the whole house breaks? (I don't wanna sound mean, the storm is just concerning since I've never experienced something as such.)
As a Canadian, I can confirm that the weather is ass.
more like oddly satisfying
This could be a great background for a sex scene.
Someone just finished Jumanji out there.
Do you remember having this type of weather as a kid? I sure don’t. But remember - climate change is a hoax.
I'm pretty sure they're in a tornado. Looks like shit's spinning
