In the Eye of the Storm

This show is fantastic! It's so well thought out and put together between the interviews, footage, and other additions. The raw footage is fascinating, heartbreaking, and shocking! The people who went through these experiences are inspiring especially when they're out risking their own lives to save others. I highly recommend watching it, it's better than any "reality" show out there. It doesn't get more real or terrifying than what these people went through! I have always been fascinated by storms like these but after watching these first hand accounts, all I can say is that I am grateful to have never found myself or any of my loved ones in such a situation!

I can't rave enough about this television series. Each episode follows a different natural disaster in America, all in real-time thanks to people's mobile phones, news reports, doorbell cameras, etc. I have never been so on the edge of my seat during a series, it has you feeling a whole mixture of emotions. It is unbelievable to think about what people go through and come out of the other end with a story to tell. I binge-watched the whole first season in two days, I hope we get another season soon. If you love things about storm watching, or anything about disasters then please watch this series, you will not be disappointed.

Information is placed on the screen in white printing and it's repeatedly placed on top of light colored shifting backgrounds (like clouds). It's nearly impossible to read and there have been a few cases I couldn't decipher all of it. But it's interesting info that's directly related to the scene! There has to be a better option for letter color, a text box behind the writing or some other solution!

I am really enjoying the show overall! I'm fascinated by fierce weather and the problems caused by it. Having the show compiled after the fact gives us an overview and summary - unlike the news footage while it's taking place. Please continue!

As a South African wedont have many tornadoes, hurricanes, snow, earthquakes etc. This series shows a different side of the US living the dream life.

Depending on where you are you need to always be prepared for whatever Mother Nature might throw your way.

What ive also learnt is that people dont like listening to authoritative warnings... A storm from hell is coming, but lets go for a drive to check it out.

Ive also learnt that you need an emergency kit in the car. Flares, silver space blankets, burn shield creams, knife, scissors, bandages. Then water and something to eat. Blankets and more warm and dry clothes. Esp when you know something nasty is coming your way.

This series makes these natural events so real and so scary that even over thousands and thousands of miles away I will be better prepared.

The footage in most of the episodes is really intense. You see a side of events that you may not used to. As someone who lives in the South the Hawaii wildfire and Buffalo Snowmageddon episodes were probably the most shocking to me as they were phenomenon we don't really see experience. I think one thing that was repeatedly said was "we heard the warnings but didn't take it seriously because we get them all the time..." or "we just thought this was the usual and it wouldn't get that bad." It's definitely a reminder to listen to and heed warnings because they are given for a reason. Many of the episodes show how rapidly a natural event can devolve and how decisions have to be made in a split second and they can have extreme consequences. The video of the mass casualty interstate pileups in the blizzard were truly shocking and one of many reminders in the series about the danger first responders put themselves in to save people.
