Although we did not suffer any damage, there were a lot of people who did so please consider donating to hurricane relief efforts. www.charitynav...

Tornado watch means to keep an eye on the weather. Warning means it's coming take cover. Warning is the worst. I'm in Alabama we deal with tornadoes all the time. I'm glad you all weathered this safely
HorrorQueen same
I'm from Illinois... yep I understand those tornado weather too
HorrorQueen same
I'm in Birmingham 😊
living in Tennessee I get tornado warnings quite frequently & when he thought tornado watch was worst, I got worried lol
Idk why this was recommended but it was nice to see how much Tim and Jenn have changed since then, and now they are three ❤
Tim is one of the only youtubers I know that would vlog and tweet during a hurricane
Joshualmao Ears did too.
Joshualmao my mom dad didn't let me go to Florida I would've went right to the eye of the storm take a metal bat and stand outside
Joshualmao like what I wanted to do in sandy which i got hit by
No there are plenty of them out there that would. I think Tim is the only one that would do it for his viewers and not just for the view count.
Robert Hicks Definitely, you can tell he does a lot of stuff for us and also stuff him and his wife truly enjoy. Sometimes he'll do something just to give people an idea of what they'll be dealing with like the distance between the onsite hotels at Universal and how long they take to get to Universal Studios for HHN. He doesn't have to go out of his way for that stuff but does it because their fan base continues to grow and he's constantly asked questions he either can answer or will find the answers for as well as Jen. They both work hard when it comes to CZcams, stuff like this isn't easy especially when it comes to vlogs..
The little doggie looks so adorable wrapped up in the blankie like a burrito.
Glad you're safe Tim and Jen! Feels good to see your vlogs again
A R same

Watching almost a year later just to watch a lot of your videos
The little Honda generator I have can support the refrigerator, a deep freezer, a couple of fans, a light, and a couple of phone chargers. Pretty much essential to have in Florida!
Missed you guys but glad to see everything was good in context of a hurricane.
wildman19232 ..just curious, where did they go?
Adventures by George my generator can power the whole house if needed. But it takes a lot of gasoline
Nooo i live in central florida plz noo im crying i dont want to die
@@julyssachavez6661 you won’t die.
who’s watching in quarantine
I am bored and it poped up in my recommendation
Meeeee
Me xD
Me. Where I am it’s almost December. It’s been way more than half a year in quarantine. :(
@@katerina.b09 ye
A 30 minute Tim Tracker vlog 🙌🙌
Y'all bringing the mattress down reminded me of the "PIVOT" Friends episode lol
Felicia UniqueSweets PIVOT!!! PIVOT!!!!!🛋🛋🛋
Yesssss hahahahaha i love it!!
Tornado Warning = More severe. Tornado spotted on the ground or radar indicated. Tornado watch = conditions are favorable for tornado development. Midwest 101. lol
Ariel Long Nebraska 101!!!!
LOL Nebraska surely sees more than we do in Ohio.
Ariel Long Oklahoma 101 haha 😂😂
This is the correct answer.
The spin the atmosphere spawns little tornadoes very easily in hurricanes. We usually see them with monster cold fronts clashing with warm unstable air, that come through in the spring. Trust me you don't want to see one! lol
Glad you are safe. As a Canadian living in Toronto, Ontario Canada our hydro company is sending 500 workers to help restore hydro. We also sent lumber and building supplies + tools to help rebuild Miami & Orlando.
I have been waiting for this! Glad your all good
The Retro Metro SAME!
Me too, way up on Canadian border.
Moustache down! Moustache down! Medic!
So happy to see someone loaned you their generator. People looking out for one another during trying times is so uplifting.
I live in Oklahoma in tornado alley. A watch means a tornadoes can develop. A warning means a tornado has been spotted. That was so nice of her to let you use her generator. I know that makes a big difference. So glad you two are okay. Thanks for sharing your hurricane experience with us. I have never been in one. Love you both!
Hats off to Christina for sharing her generator! Glad everything is okay for the 3 of you now! My family down in West Palm Beach made it through okay as well, but the anxiety was horrid.
Oh bandits little head tilt is the cutest thing 💕
We were at WDW during Irma. I've also been at WDW during Frances as well. Both times Disney did a fantastic job keeping us all safe and informed.
Watching after your Elsa update, so much has changed I think this was right before I started following along. I could not go through this how frightening just waiting it out
Same. Crazy to see the changes.
very glad to see you kids! i went thru heck at a shelter with 2000 people! and got back to no power till a hour ago! very happy to see you kids made it ok!!!!!
Eartha Quake glad you're okay!
Glad to see you guys are okay! Watching this makes me really thankful that hurricanes never occur where I live. Sorry your backyard went crazy but glad to see no really harmful things happened!
I'm so glad you guys are safe! The hurricane forecasts were SO wrong up until the last minute. It was originally going to directly hit Miami (where I live) but at last minute it changed coasts. So hopefully in the future, hurricane predictions can be more accurate
Ashlyn Ma i feel you pain. I live in Miami too. It was so annoying but the Santeria worked. It went off the wrong coast but it worked. LOL
ElizaShakiraMassani lol 😂
Ashlyn Ma 😄 Im glad that got a laugh.
Ashlyn Ma I know that happens like sandy was suppose uh we'll GO RIGHT THROUGH ME but they said Irma was unpredictable
Yes if only mother nature wouldn't change what it is going to do at the last minute. It's like geez it's only supposed to follow the one course that is a possibility.
I came here today because I love you two but also, I figured you'd have something on hurricane stuff/preparedness and all that storm jazz, lol. I remember Irma as it was supposed to hit where I am (Sarasota) but turned away at the very last minute and veered towards Central FL. Now that Dorian is out there - currently as Cat 3 - my husband & I are preparing as much as we can. Of course, you know as well as we do that these things can change on a dime and right now the models re allllll over the place. Just stay safe and do what you can. That's what we're doing too.
Watching your videos helps calm our anxiety, lol. I know that sounds wacky but it's true. We love watching you guys on any random night when things are normal and there's no storm! But it's a great soother when we're all kerbobbled as well. Cornball, but true. Much love! :)
THE TRACKERS RETURN!!
SJBBVideos ...I've been away for awhile, where did they go?
Glad you're ok. That's what I meant when I commented on having a generator! We had hurricane George go right over us in 1998, it was a cat-3 and the eye went right smack over top of us, that was sep.22, we didn't gat power until November! So NEVER again are we going through that. BTW give your pool a shock treatment and connect your garden hose to your pool pump and turn the valve to on, SHUT OFF the water main to your house and use the generator to run your pump and pump water to toilets, sinks and shower. At least for a while you can take care of a few things. Just be sure to close the main to the house so the water doesn't just drain away to the municipal pipes.
Jen when the power went on and off : "OH! ohh"
lolololol
it's two "N"s by the way,
Watching this, reliving Irma, actually gave my anxiety. I live in Orlando too so when Irma shifted, I went into the closet and listened to music because our door was shaking like crazy even before the eyewall slammed us. I thought the door was gonna fly off, allowing the wind to come in and suck our roof right off! The power was off for about 3 days and we still have a lot of yard work to do. Thankfully, we didn't suffer any major damage!
This was a rough one, glad you made it through ok!
Oh guys! I'm so glad y'all are okay. How very sweet of the person to lend their generator! So very kind. That warms my heart to hear that. ❤️
6:29 I love your shirt tim! I love back to the future!!!
Buddy I’m moving to Florida great tips. I really feel you have taught me everything I need to know in order to survive a hurricane. You and Jen are the greatest!
So glad you guys are doing OK, we've missed our daily dose of Tim & Jenn! You handled the hurricane brilliantly , I would have been a wreck. So kind of someone to lend you a generator, hope you get power soon. Lovely to see you back ! ☺
I'm so glad you guys are ok! Some of my family lives in Orlando so it was nice to know that everyone made it through.
also in Orlando area! sadly we lost power and have yet to get it back but yes, lots of rain!
glad you and Jen are ok!!
I live near the Orlando international airport so east side. That may be why! im glad you didn't lose power thou
Nixza Gonzalez ayyyy same east siiiiiide
I live in ocoee close to apopka and I still don't have power. about to go onto day 4
We lost power late Sunday and didn't get it back till the following Sunday morning. We are in Lake County.
People are basically good, Jenn...and we all love you guys!
I hope you guys put the generator in the right spot (outside). Hearing about so many people dying of carbon monoxide poisoning from it. Stay safe! I weathered it out too! In Kissimmee. Need a new screening for the pool and a bunch of shingles flew off. Not too much damage. I guess I was one of the lucky ones not to lose power. Although the other half of my area isn't going to get power again until Sunday :\
They are safe and I hope you are safe!
Tim and Jen are the nicest people ever, saw them a few times at universal and didn't hesitate to interact with us and be very polite, let us take a picture or two with them! Very nice!
Rewatching this video as Ida comes to hit. Hopefully, I can take some notes of the supplies that you utilized. For those in LA and the Gulf area of MS & AL, my heart goes out to all of yall if you see this message
I loved watching this. It's interesting to see from your perspective. My grandma lives in a little retirement village full of mobile homes in Brooksville. I sat for 24 hrs watching every live feed I could find, from my home in CA. Happy to report she was safe, and her home was fine, but the village took a major hit. Glad you guys are safe and sound!
Oh lol, it's opposite way around for the tornado watch/warning. Warning is where there is a tornado nearby and a watch is a severe thunderstorm could likely create a tornado. Just FYI lol.
I'm so glad you're both ok!!
WOO! Us Floridians know what's up when hurricanes strike, I'm glad to hear you guys are safe! :) My mom's in Ft. Myers, and her house had a minor roof breech as well as surge flooding (was a foot at it's highest inside the house), plus two doors were ripped off. Power is still off as of this morning, but generators are around, so at least there's that... But hey, everyone on my end is safe too, so WOO HOO! I'm happy to see you guys are safe with minimal/no damages, much love to both of you! :)
Having gone through Katrina I know exactly how you feel. Thanks for being so positive in times like this. Praying for you both and all those effected by the storm!
Was starting to worry so glad that you guys are safe.
Welcome back Tim, Jen and Bandit! I'm just so glad you were safe. I've been checking for your vlog and it was so good to see one there this morning! Sending love out to all those affected xx
Pushing daisies!! Such a good show and no one remembers it!
Jen F I have it on DVD and watch it all the time...it's such a great show!!
Courtney I love it!! CW has an app that I've watched it on before. I think it's about time I watch it again!
Such a shame it didn’t get renewed for a third season, it was such a cute show!!!!
I loved that show.
I'm so glad that you guys and Bean are doing ok, and that you didn't have any damage to your home.
This was a very interesting video! As someone who has never been in a hurricane it was very interesting to see what it looks and sounds like and to see how you all prepared. Glad both you all and bandit were ok!
Just makes me very glad NM doesn't get storms like this.
I'm so glad you guys are safe and sound! Hope your power returns very soon! ❤️ from VA!
I was on holiday in Orlando at this time. Irma ruined the end of my holiday, to be honest, but I had takeaway food and the TV in my hotel room while the wind and rain were happening outside - the power did cut out for a little bit here and there, and the hotel got minimal damage. Also, I have games on my phone, so I wasn't going to get bored. It was a kinda fun experience, but I didn't sleep much for the whole holiday [I guess I just could adjust to being away from home or being in a different time zone and I was there for 2 weeks] and then I had to fly back to the UK the next day. I went 36 hours with no sleep at all - I tried to nap on the plane, but I couldn't get comfy. I then had to drive home from the airport. Don't drive while tired people it's so dangerous. I think I had a nap once I got back, but I don't remember. I won't be travelling to the USA in storm season again. The main reason I did though was to ride Dragon Challenge before it closed, I'm so glad I did I will miss that coaster. Oh, for anyone wondering what my family were thinking...my dad was afraid I was going to DIE in the storm, no really, my mum said he cried he was going to pay for an early flight to get me home, but I refused. It's not a holiday I will easily forget [I went by myself cuz I wanted to].
I'm glad to know y'all made it through the storm safe!
Were we live a tree fell on are house and are power has been out.Plz pray for us and everyone else affected by Irma.
Glad everyone is safe! Thanks for filming The way you did (before, during, and after). Taking us on the full hurricane journey while you and Jen mentally prepared and got situated in the house was stressful just watching. I can't imagine having to go through it. 💓
27:05 Tim (talking about the portable fan): it's fantastic (no pun intended) LOL
Welcome back. Glad you guys are safe! We've been watching here in So Cal and can't believe how massive that storm was. Thanks for sharing your experience, it's interesting to see what you do during a hurricane (it seemed very nerve racking.) Here we just have earthquakes and there is no waiting... it just happens! I hope the rest of the season is pretty calm for you guys!
Lil beans eyebrow hairs are so cute 😭❤
So glad it wasn't worse, happy to see your faces again! Saw the convoy of Canadian power trucks on their way from here in Maine so glad they are helping!
When I was 17 a hurricane destroyed my town... We passed a plate around. Total strangers moved to kindness by my story. -Hamilton
Minnie Rhea IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE THERE IS QUIET
Merry Clark FOR JUST A MOMENT
*They had us in the first part*
Thank you for ACTUALLY being prepared well in advance!
I love you guys and I am glad your safe but a tornado watch means there could possibly be a tornado but tornado waring means that a tornado was spotted. I know this because I used to live in tornado alley
I didn't realize how much I missed you guys!! I'm so happy you guys were safe
“What if somebody came up to you and just started touching your eyebrows?”
“It’s happened to me before...”
😂😂😂
I love this vlog. Thank you for letting us into your lives during this time. I learned alot and the time lapses were beautiful. Glad everything turned out ok for you guys.
So I get to experience this hurricane twice.... once from my own home & once via the internet & your home. Lol
This hurricane was a pain but I got through it you are getting through it until you get real power back. Which I hope you do soon!
SIX days here without power during the storm. We did have to leave and go to a hotel once during that time just to take a hot shower. Glad you guys are safe. And a generator is a WONDERFUL thing to have. How nice of that friend to loan you theirs. I don't think we could have ever prepared enough for a storm of that magnitude.
Please pray for the Caribbean islands 🌴🌞that were devastated by the 185 mph winds Hurricane Irma brought! 🇦🇮🇻🇬🇦🇬🇻🇮
I saw the same thing after Hurricane Harvey hit where I live. So happy you all are safe & sound. Thanks for posting this to share your experience & let us know you are okay.
1st view and like TIM YOU ARE AWESOME happy you are ok along with you wife hope your house is also ok 👌 you are awesome
Also can I get a like for my aunt and uncles house that was destroyed
Can I get a like for my aunt and uncle who's house was destroyed
I was telling my wife I wonder if Tim and Jenn are ok cause they haven't posted anything . Glad y'all are doing well.
James Flick waaaaay off. You're like 50th comment
Wasn't the first comment first like and view at donya sorry if spelled wrong lol
I just want to say that I'm glad you guys are ok! I found you guys last year, and your videos have helped me through some tough stuff. Keep up the good work, and I'll keep paying the price!
"Everything's coming up Millhouse" 😂😂😂
i so love that part too! hahahahaha
Jenn "rake it up rake it up, bag it up bag it up" I'm glad you guys are doing well and safe and sound!!
I slept through Hugo when I was little. Didn't even realize it was going on. It was a cat 4
Thank you guys so much for thanking the lineman! They spend so much time working to get the power back on. My dad is a lineman and they make him work in storms all the time. Most people aren't so understanding! Glad y'all are safe!
Hey Tim it's super cool to watch this vlog because I was 10 miles away from Eye down in Tampa Florida and it's interesting to see what happened to you comparing to what happened to us I love your videos keep them up see you later
So glad that you and Jen are safe! Thank you for vlogging because you know we were worried! 🙏🏼
AHHH you watched Pushing Daisies?! I thought I was the only one!
Glad you guys are okay!!!! Love you guys so much!!!!
Time to pressure wash the pool deck
I think the same thing every time i see their pool.
MrCam Shaft lmaoo
I think they only dont do it because it ruins the pools chemistry which can damage the mechanical parts
So glad you guys stayed safe and that damage was minimal.
I can read the headlines now" man starves to death trying to open camp stove" Lol ! Glad you guys rode it out safe ! During hurricane Sandy, we lived on a small generator and a gas grill ( with a pancake griddle) for 10 days.. Was able to run the fridge, microwave,TV and lights..
Time to pay the price and buy a generator...you are going to need it..weather patterns are only getting worse,year after year..
Hope you get back to normal life soon........
Irma hit Atlanta too but it was supposed to be a category 1 so they shut the city down. However, it was a tropical storm that just knocked out my power for several hours
Same where I live it took like 2 and a half days to get the power back
I was getting worried that without power, we wouldn't get a Tim Tracker Video all week! I CAN'T GO ON WITHOUT MY DAILY TRACKER VIDEOS! I JUST CAN'T!
Losing power before and after a storm is definitely something I don't miss about living in Florida. Glad to see you guys made it through okay!
vice versa for tornado watch & warning I live in Kansas so I know
Stoked y'all are all safe and sound.
JENN HOW HAVE YOU NOT WATCHED RATATOUILLE YET???? LIKE DING DANG!!!!!!!
Bart Simpson and here we are 6 months later and she still hasn't lol
I'm so thankful that you guys are okay! I hope everyone who was hit by the hurricane is hanging in there and will get help soon! ❤️
Just for future reference. From someone who lives in tornado alley, A tornado warning means that there is a tornado haha. That is when you need to take cover
Nick Favre ur brave to live in tornado valley
I'm so glad u and Jen are okay!! U guys are troopers. When Katrina hit us here in New Orleans in 2005, our house took a bad beating and we had to completely renovate it from top to bottom. Glad yalls house didn't suffer any major damage!
NOTIFICATION SQUAD WHERE YOU AT OMG I MISSED MY DAILY DOSE OF TIM AND JENN
You guys didnt have to vlog this, and you did. That's why you all are the best on the web. Stay strong guys, were praying for power.
Employee Preview??
I'm so glad you're ok! Been in my thoughts for days. Thanks for taking us along on your hurricane adventure!
Tornado Watch: When they think tornadoes might appear and are possible. They are WATCHING for them. This is just them saying to be on the lookout.
Tornado Warning: There is a confirmed tornado in the area, seek shelter. It's a warning.
2 days after hurricane Maria i had 40 days without power and my friend got power this valentines day but glad that u guys are safe!! Keep up the good work
We call those twigs
and I just mow right over them and bag them up with the mower.
Now that I live in Arizona where we use rocks instead of grass, I'm not as up on mower technology. But if a mower is a mulching mower, it can easily take on those twigs.
Jason what? Me and my boyfriend are from Maine. The whole time we were saying “twigs! Those are twigs” 😂😂
Watching this on July 10, 2021!! We came to Florida to visit family after Irma hit in Sept. All the motels were filled with Floridians who were without power!! Sweet Bandit!! Generators are a must!!
Warning is worse then a watch tim :)
So happy that you guys are safe and did not have flooding or any major damage.
