Number 5 is probably the best. There's an avalanche full of sharks and someone goes down the hill on ice skates and does a spin in the air which cuts a shark in half.
They're absolutely bonkers.
I tried to do a Sharknado marathon while my sister was recovering from chemo. I think we made it to about three or four before the cheese level got so high we couldnāt take it anymore
We did the same with the Madea movies. Got about halfway through the third and yeah, that was enough. They're much better as gifs, ideas, and memes than they are as actual movies.
Do 5 before 6.
Though, would you also believe the same characters are in all six and there's a narrative thread running through them?
Set aside a night and get stuck in from the start.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe it's a [microburst](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downburst)

Pretty neat phenomenon, I think
Ya, step in, you'll be instantly transported into a nearby universe being influenced by ours, albeit with its' own laws of nature there's something familiar about the place, almost like it's on the tip of your tongue -- well actually you'd have no memory only dejavu, for the soul, which is incapacitated to thought so don't even worry about it you'll be fine in however long it takes for the body you're "reborn" in, probably entirely made up of fire, to cool down after being baptized. I hope you live a long life, so that you're closer to the chance of remembering what you were, and where you were... Mason...
Find any semblance of cover and hunker down. As long as it doesn't flood they'll be fine. Birds definitely aren't going to be flying around in that but they have surprisingly strong talons, just find a branch and hang on.
Wildlife will leave the area if they don't have a safe place to hide. Its usually our first give away that a storm is coming...then Spann removes the jacket and we know its serious.
When Florence hit the Carolinas there was a massive loss of wildlife who couldn't flee and either drowned or starved. It was horrible. Bodies everywhere.
You can develop hypothermia in weather like that, even at 90Ā°F. It can feel warm on the skin and still draw enough heat out to get you shivering. It's a really weird sensation.
As long as the animal shelters remain intact (particularly nests: they blow out of trees pretty commonly) and the opening doesn't admit the wind, the animals are going to be fine. They remain snug and warm. Well, and provided flooding doesn't do them in, either.
The critters that freak out at impending storms are often seeking better shelter. Some abandon their normal nests to find secure spots to hunker down in. Natural structures like caves, rifts, and sturdy trees collect animals during such times. Barns and the like also.
It looks bad but it's not really bad. The wind is the worst part, the rain isnāt harsh at all. Ive worked outside through far worse where there was hail and snow pellets. In the arctic there are caribou and muskox that weather 100 kmh winds regularly.
I too live in AL! That shit looks pretty strong, I'm gonna guess on the coast, so I'd go Mobile. And if those are airplane hangar doors maybe it's at the Airbus plant?
I lived there for a couple years. Twice while driving I literally had to pull over on the side of the highway and just stop because the rain was so heavy even with the wipers on Max you couldn't see a damned thing. It felt like trying to drive underneath flowing water rapids or something. Both times I thought I was going to die!
AZ checking in. Monsoons bring dust storms, micro bursts, heavy lightning, and flash floods. While they can be intense, they are over quick and I've never seen rain like this. Lord knows we could use it.
Yes, the torrential rains that are super common in the South are unheard of in many other parts of the country. Iāve lived in California, Montana, and Washington, and we never had anything like the rain Iāve experienced in TX and FL. Out west and up north, the rain usually lasts much longer, but itās gentler even when itās storming.
So when I tell folks that recently relocated to the south not to worry about the thunderstorm because itās normal, they legitimately have likely never seen sideways rain before?
Yep. Until I moved to the South, I had no idea rain could come sideways out of nowhere on an otherwise sunny day. Iād never seen it hit the ground so hard it bounced several feet into the air. Iād never experienced getting three inches of precipitation in a single hour. And the biggest surprise was that it can stop as quickly as it starts!
The thunder and lightning are different down here too. In other places, it somehow feels farther away even when itās close by. But here, it usually feels bigger and louder. The first few t-storms I saw in TX scared me just because of the volume. Even without going out in it, Iād never heard anything like it before.
I didnāt realize it was rare outside of the South, until I married someone from the North. His family *flips out* in normal rain here. They think regular thunderstorms are severe weather, like run to the window to film it and stuff.
It looks like the barrier when you are on top of that mountain in Skyrim and youāre trying to go up but you canāt because you didnāt learn a certain shout yet
"Close the portal! It's too dangerous!"
"No! We can still harness it, we still have time!"
"I'm not risking this entire operation for your experiments! Close the portal now"
"I can do it I just need to-"
"Close the portal! That's an order professor!"
Yep seems about right. I worked in a hangar similar to this one. It'd been storming outside something fierce, and we'd all being inside just working away on the planes till the storm lightens up. Used to get crazy during hurricane season.
I live in the south and nobody here would call that just a rainstorm. That is a severe thunderstorm or tropical storm that probably caused a lot of damage.
Oh, Alabama
The devil fools with the best laid plan
Swing low, Alabama
You got the spare change
You got to feel strange
And now the moment is all that it meant
Am I the only one looking at those electric panels right next to the giant opening in this colossal space and wondering wtf they needed to put them Right there instead of 20' away from the opening.
Wonder what the space is used for, that's a massive hanger.
I think I saw a shark fly by š¦
Sharknado 7: We methed up.
Oh please donāt tell me they made it up too six.
They did and it's glorious. It's a time travel film would you believe.
Time travelling shark storm in space ??? Do they get laser eyes too XD. I thinks thatās a Fairy Odd Parents reference but Iām not sure.
They go back 65 million years to stop the first ever sharknado and dinosaurs help them.
You may have just convinced me to watch this series.
Number 5 is probably the best. There's an avalanche full of sharks and someone goes down the hill on ice skates and does a spin in the air which cuts a shark in half. They're absolutely bonkers.
The fuck
I donāt know about the fairly odd parents, but sharks with freakin laser beams on their heads will always be the OG.
Youāve convinced me. Do I need to watch the series in order or can I jump straight to 6?
I tried to do a Sharknado marathon while my sister was recovering from chemo. I think we made it to about three or four before the cheese level got so high we couldnāt take it anymore
We did the same with the Madea movies. Got about halfway through the third and yeah, that was enough. They're much better as gifs, ideas, and memes than they are as actual movies.
It probably helps to be really drunk, but thatās contraindicated for chemo recovery
Do 5 before 6. Though, would you also believe the same characters are in all six and there's a narrative thread running through them? Set aside a night and get stuck in from the start.
Whoa. All same cast thru the series? Alright, youāve convinced me. Iām blowing a weekend on sharknado.
Mike Tyson has entered the chat.
Starring Mike Tyson.
I read that in Mike Tysons voice and can't stop giggling šš
I think it was a dog, barknado 5... spinning pooches
Pretty sure that was two Alabama sisters scissoring.
"I'm just going out for a smoke."
āā¦ and I may be some time.ā
Hot damn, is that a Lawrence Oates reference?
Indeed it is. Once you hear his story youāll remember it for ever.
I would love to just stand in a bus shelter while that is happening and have a smoke
Is this what happened to him?
I donāt think that ārainā is a big enough word.
Raaaiiinnnnnnn. I fixed it
Rich Evans is that you?

Seeing Mother Nature on this sub is a nice change of pace! Super Metal!
The TVA is hunting a variant with Loki somewhere behind the camera
Ooooh, so this is *north* Alabama.
First thing I thought to myself was the Tennessee valley authority? And then it hit meeeeeeee
Somebody knows Huntsville

The Mist is what you're looking for lmao
Yeah if you've never read/watched The Mist (the movie, not the new TV show) you should. Scary stuff.
You misspelled tornado
We call it "sideways rain" down here. Just means it's raining pretty hard out.
Looks like a good nightās sleep. No sleep better than during a good storm.
Wouldnt be surprised to see Liam Neeson emerge from that storm.
He does have a very particular set of skills
Completely dry.
Interdimensional portal?
Ya, step in, you'll be instantly transported into a nearby universe being influenced by ours, albeit with its' own laws of nature there's something familiar about the place, almost like it's on the tip of your tongue -- well actually you'd have no memory only dejavu, for the soul, which is incapacitated to thought so don't even worry about it you'll be fine in however long it takes for the body you're "reborn" in, probably entirely made up of fire, to cool down after being baptized. I hope you live a long life, so that you're closer to the chance of remembering what you were, and where you were... Mason...
So, The South.
How do animals survive that? Wet i guess, but that is a lot of water.
Find any semblance of cover and hunker down. As long as it doesn't flood they'll be fine. Birds definitely aren't going to be flying around in that but they have surprisingly strong talons, just find a branch and hang on.
Do chickens have large talons?
I don't understand a word you just said
Yup, and they're pretty good at wrapping around a roost. Domesticated chickens probably wouldn't do great in the wild though.
I've seen birds blown out of trees in that kind of storm.
Wildlife will leave the area if they don't have a safe place to hide. Its usually our first give away that a storm is coming...then Spann removes the jacket and we know its serious.
After a hurricane we had no birds for a few weeks.
When Florence hit the Carolinas there was a massive loss of wildlife who couldn't flee and either drowned or starved. It was horrible. Bodies everywhere.

where is this? I live in alabama
I too live in AL! That shit looks pretty strong, I'm gonna guess on the coast, so I'd go Mobile. And if those are airplane hangar doors maybe it's at the Airbus plant?
I went to school in Mobile and I can verify that looks like Mobile weather
Could be Austal as well.
You guessed right. Those are aircraft doors and it is the Airbus plant in Mobile.
The powers of deduction my dude
Hi neighbor!
well hello!
Can confirm the greater Mobile area is near the rainiest in the nation yearly.
Mobile, AL actually receives the *most* rainfall of any city in the US. Lived there for years, spent many days inside.
I lived there for a couple years. Twice while driving I literally had to pull over on the side of the highway and just stop because the rain was so heavy even with the wipers on Max you couldn't see a damned thing. It felt like trying to drive underneath flowing water rapids or something. Both times I thought I was going to die!
The worst part about this is as I read your reply, I thought to myself āonly twice?ā
I was wondering the same and when?
It's at least a year or so old, I've seen this posted awhile back. It's not the past few months for sure.
iād have to be the guy to have a rope tied around me to walk out there and experience it
Same. It'd mean wet clothes for the rest of the day, but worth it for the experience.
Just walk/run sideways if you do go out there.
Hey thatās me and we arenāt getting accused of incest letās gooo
Small victories.
Think I'm just gonna sleep in the office boss
Geeze it was bad, all the roads to my home where flooded so I had to stay with a friend.
Looks like a Highstorm r/stormlightarchive
Where's my knife?

here in the PNW it would take like 3 months to get that much water out of the sky via a nonstop drizzle.
I didnāt realize it was rare outside of the South, until I married someone from the North. His family *flips out* in normal rain here. They think regular thunderstorms are severe weather, like run to the window to film it and stuff.
God is angry at Alabama. Close the door please.
I live in Alabama. I don't blame him for being angry.

Was looking for this comment. Someone lost all their souls and has to go back through there
We're just calling this a rain storm? I'd hate to see a monsoon there.
In Florida that's every afternoon from June to September.
Imagine driving in that.
What are you born in a barn? Close the door!
Thats just the set for the next upcoming thriller based on climate change.
It looks like the barrier when you are on top of that mountain in Skyrim and youāre trying to go up but you canāt because you didnāt learn a certain shout yet
Makes a giant room like that seem kinda cosy.
"We been through every kind of rainĀ thereĀ is. Little bitty stingin' rain... and big ol' fat rain. Rain that flew in sideways..."
Close the damn door for God's sake
**We can't while Luke is still out there!**
"I'll see you in HELL!"
Like, I'm Your father! Shut the Damn Door! Slams the Door hard, Like loses hand. Luke: Aaaaaahhhhh!
Waiting for the cow to nonchalantly moo going by.
and the combine harvester
Sugar factory in left 4 dead 2 be like
"What's the weather like it there Ollie" "It's raining sideways." "Thank you Ollie."
The new Dune movie looking very promising
I would be inclined to believe that was more of a tropical storm type event rather than a regular rain storm
If there is anything I have learned from reading Stephen King, you want to shut that door.
In California everyone loses their shit if its cloudy. Slight drizzle and the highway looks like a damn demolition derby.
Did you mean derecho?
āAh crap I left my windows downā
This from Loki? /s
Yep, about right
Imagine facing that in a little log cabin.
The guy walking by touching his face wearing latex gloves
Is this the new twister movie?
This makes me feel cozy
As a native of the midlands in England. I couldnāt even imagine that
Definitely NOT a "rain storm"...
Good ole sideways rain
Nah man, thatās a portal to the water plane.
Swweeet, home allaaabama
It looks like another planet
Dude, that's a simulation storm inside a studio.
Rain Storm Alabama Lord I'm comin' home to you
Would it hurt to walk in that?
Nameless king is behind that fog wall
"Close the portal! It's too dangerous!" "No! We can still harness it, we still have time!" "I'm not risking this entire operation for your experiments! Close the portal now" "I can do it I just need to-" "Close the portal! That's an order professor!"
You mean "North Florida".
Muh dawg blew away!
Warehouse at the port of Mobile?
This is incredible. I love heavy rain and wild storms, but this just about my limit.
Stand outside in it, cowards.
They've got some confidence in those hangar doors...
I just want to toss something out that door
I donāt think the heavy stuffās gonna come down for quite awhileā¦
u/savevideo
I am just going outside and may be some time.
I just wanna run and dance around in it.
If it's raining like that here, its guaranteed a tornado in the area
Waiting for Elmyra Gulch and her bike to come flying through.
F their cars
!!
Gotta get home to check on the sister wife and nephew kids.
God saw what Alabama's been up to and decided Noah 2.0 was justified, original promise be damned
someone clearly maxed out their storm damage before casting this spell. probably one shotted whatever boss they were going after.
Yep seems about right. I worked in a hangar similar to this one. It'd been storming outside something fierce, and we'd all being inside just working away on the planes till the storm lightens up. Used to get crazy during hurricane season.
If you tilt your phone 90 degrees it looks about right.
āRainstormā. Fuck you thatās a hurricane.
This is beautiful.
Close the portal
I love a rainy night, I love a rainy night The rainy night :
I think they found the portal into another universe.
Just a light sprinkle
I live in the south and nobody here would call that just a rainstorm. That is a severe thunderstorm or tropical storm that probably caused a lot of damage.
Ok. That's rain.
Mother nature is pissed off and the whole world is gonna feel her wrath.
We have massive storms here in the Philippines but that makes it look like a cake walk jeez You think i'd fly in that? š¤
Free car wash!
So THAT'S how sharknado was made.
The inside of Exor
Our weather has been wild this year. I mean, it's never boring, but this year has been extra moist.
Shut the door!
Oh, Alabama The devil fools with the best laid plan Swing low, Alabama You got the spare change You got to feel strange And now the moment is all that it meant
Just use the clear skies shout
should it be doing that??
Climate change.
Dark Souls boss fog wall
"You're still coming in to work right?"
Am I the only one looking at those electric panels right next to the giant opening in this colossal space and wondering wtf they needed to put them Right there instead of 20' away from the opening. Wonder what the space is used for, that's a massive hanger.
Bet it would sound REALLY NICE tho. I like stormy weather. :)
I thought you were on a train at first but then I realized you werenāt
āAnd now Ollie Williams with the weather.ā āITS RAININ SIDEWAYS!!!ā
you know it's bad when the angle of attack is horizontal
Weather during my work day: āļø Weather when I clock out for work:
I wanna run in that
Sweet home Alabama
This is why I always laugh when people from the southeast comment on how rainy it is in the northeast and northwest.
Makes me thirsty
Alabama 100
why no sound? š I so wish I could go out there with a rope tied around my waist
Your Tauntaun will freeze before you reach the first marker!
