Hurricane force winds, flag barely moves…. Is this unrelated footage?

Since OP couldn’t be bothered to explain this, they are referring to an incident on June 15, 1960 in Kopperl, TX. That temperature spike has never been verified.
*Shortly after midnight on June 15, 1960, a very rare meteorological phenomenon, a heat burst, struck the community when a dying thunderstorm collapsed over Kopperl. The storm had rained itself out, and with little to no precipitation to cool the resulting downdrafts, superheated air descended upon the community in the form of extremely hot, hurricane-force wind gusts of up to 75 mph (121 km/h). The temperature increased rapidly, reportedly peaking near 140 °F (60 °C),[4] 20° above the official all-time high for the state of Texas and exceeding the highest official temperature recorded on Earth. The storm, known as “Satan’s Storm” by locals, soon became part of local folklore.* (From wikipedia)

OP, this is a good meme and thank you for the context. I’m sorry your dealing with idiots who chose not to be idiots.

I got a video recommended to me yesterday about this exact topic, and you seemingly also received it? No experiences are original…
So nobody is going to mention just how funny this guy is?? 😂🤣

It lasted over four hours, not 20 minutes. People fled to underground storm shelters to escape the heat, it maxed out the entire towns outdoor thermometers, killed a ton of wildlife. It was also not this video, since it happened in 1960 in Kopperl, TX. Satan’s Storm…..

Isn’t this that meteor that happened a few years ago, the same meteor that had the video of the girl reacting to it?

My dad experienced a heat burst on his farm. He was out in the yard early one morning (between 4-5 am) getting ready for the day. He says the temperature spiked to around 90-100 degrees for 15 min and then went back to normal (60s).

If only they would write the temperature in a real measurement.

The video is unrelated. Not wind, not 1960.
Here’s a video about the event in question.
