Storm on Oregon Coast

[julieification]

Wonderful to watch! People here love the mountains. Me? The ocean. But I am way out here landlocked in Colorado. Your clip almostt made me forget that for a moment.

[ijzerkoekie]

Beautiful. Excellent camera work.

[Jenniesue30]

That is one of the most amazing spots in the world to me. I love standing over at the view point by the tennis court. As a Kid we would get our rain gear on, stand over there on the flats and wait for the waves to come in. Good Times.

[LightMare7]

believe it or not this is very relaxing for me :) great video!

[weedandwine]

It gets kinda crazy out there don't it? A nice November storm.

[Brennna]

And that's what I love about the Oregon coast! :D

[lkrauss100]

you would not want to be in that water!

[myownstarbucks]

You're the best!

[alexiscillz]

i live not too far from the coast and when we went and it got stormy and started raining we would jump in a hot tub outside ..... its the BEST

[misstaramadison1]

I used to live in North Bend, and we loved going out and watching these storms at Shore Acres...the ground would tremble when the waves would crash, it was awesome! Good footage!

[GhostWeazel99]

damn sometimes i have nightmares where i fall in this kind of storm sea... its awful

[catfish19721976]

Amazing! Love the video and I love Oregon!

[nativewizard]

oregon is the best state in the pacific northwest, washington and idaho are total rednecked asshole states!

[haxsys]

Great footage. We watched this same Storm in Florence, and many others like it. Thanks for sharing. (Live in / on Oregon Coast)

[matero10889]

thats one of the most beautiful things ive ever seen. i want to move there

[sethmo2323]

So awesome. Love the Oregon coast

[LakeemSkyhook]

i so want to go on vacation to oregon again

[MisdermeanerJ]

I would definitely hate to live where you were.

[soul2sqeeze]

I Could stay on the Oregon Coast forever just starting at the waves!

[anthonya13]

I grew up in Brookings oregon and went to school in gold beach oregon as a child, and that drive from brookings to gold beach every morning was one of the most magical ways to spend and afternoon commute each day... i heart oregon! such a unique and mystical land

[Thanks4TheClues]

wow those are huge waves!

[Thanks4TheClues]

mesmerising!!!!



[SalemRealEstate]

nothing more relaxing than a weekend on the Oregon Coast!

[VioletTeen17]

I've only seen one storm on the OC but it was amazing almost just like this storm

[Rosebff1223]

Its like that 99.9% of the time :/

[THEDEJAVUEFFECT]

That was wild man.. The oceans showing no remourse right there. Definitely scary to think it could over pour into the states one day or whenever it wants to..

[KenMcDougalJr]

Wow, those waves are Amazing. Would make for some Awesome photos.

[angiek723]

Im From this town.. i miss home when its winter. Oregon storms are the best!

[OregonDuckFreak]

Creepy.. those waves look like a bunch of tusnamis. Ha but iv been in Newport during a storm, and it isnt fun.

[whitecrow222]

i was in school at the southern oregon comm college in coos bay... i remember that storm well cause the power in the dorms went out and it was chaos for a while! we also had a tree fall on a car....

[paganpoo]

That is Shore Acres, about 5 miles from Coos Bay, Oregon. I can't count how many times I have been at that park during a storm watching the waves crash 80 to 100 feet. Absolutely incredible.

[MADEgurl06]

I used to live in Waldport. My parents and I went to Lincoln City every year after we moved away so this is insane for me to watch. What this footage taken before or after Lincoln City got hit with a tornado?

[Huckgh]

Video was taken in Nov. 2005

[DustinJames100]

awesome

[PacoWarabi]

I've been to Shore Acres once when it was this stormy, but it was at night, so I could only hear the waves and feel the spray, and feel the earth shake when the waves hit. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life.

[Andylong99]

Thank god the Coast lines are now under tsunami Hazard warnings

[goodtogoidaho]

good footage, where was that at?

[Huckgh]

At Shore Acres State Park near Charleston, OR

[theheartoforegon]

I love the coast. Great Post

[soul2sqeeze]

where was this takin at? i've been to the oregon coast many times but never seen nothing like this!

[Huckgh]

It was taken at Shore Acres State Park near Charleston, OR

[koolcuul]

time for surf!! :P im from portland heheh

[boobabiegirl]

yeah, that's obvious. Go home Pocal

[southphillyitaliana]

I moved here specifically for the Coast. Unfortunately, I can't drive for medical reasons, so I'm limited to taking the casino bus to Lincoln City. At least it's free and I get 6 hours on the beach. It would be nice if Portland would wise up and give people who can't drive another option to get to the Coast.

[chastvalex]

im so glad i live in oregon the beach is only an hour or less away and ive been wanting to see it for a while thx for posting

[kristigott]

Dramatic and awesome. I live in Florence and storm watching on the coast in winter is amazing.

[hermenutic]

Impressive.

[stevenperry209]

that is truly majestic i wanna see that

[WindAlexa]

Perfect!

[NCCNeon]

I love your video! I'm a wannabe Oregonian who lives in Florida. I've spent two, two week vacations in your amazing state. The first of them ended on November 2, 2006 ... I departed about a week too soon :(

Thanks for posting this, it's awesome!

[rcn63]

Cool. I visited the Oregon coast this past summer and was hoping to see some major storm thrashing (from a distance, of course). It did not happen (only minor ones), but still love the Oregon coast and the beauty of it all. Thanks for posting.

[Mooalah]

I grew up in Oregon and now live in Michigan, Thanks for the memories, LOVE IT!

[TigerFishProductions]

i lived through this!!! in astoria there were snapped powerlines, broken trees, really really scarry. no power for two weeks!!! no school for two weeks!!! :)

[8mycrab]

A winter storm on the Oregon Coast is an experience like no other.

My hubby is a bonafied storm watcher and will watch the radar and if ones due to come we'll arrange a beach trip pronto and pile the family in the car!

We live about 50 minutes from Newport.

We also love Shore Acres, especially the gardens around Christmas and Sunset Bay.

[toroguy]

Awesome video! I try to time these storms to get experiences like that...you timed it perfectly! ~ looks like you ventured South from "O.J's" reef to get these shots. Thanks for sharing - hope to see you this Winter! Coos Bay Phil

[Huckgh]

We lived in Florence at that time and drive down to try and catch the storm - which we did. WE were standing on the viewpoint at the park and moved over to the point to the north. We have since moved to the valley and chances of doing that again and next to nil.

I figure some of the breakers were going 100 feet in the air!

Thangs for the comment.

[doublepedaler]

HaHA finnally some big waves ,,,I live on the Great lakes,,,lake michigan, and we get big waves but nothing like this.

[Huckgh]

Some of the large breakers were going 100 feet in the air. Of coarse they are hitting rocks as they come in. We had seas of 40 foot average last December off the coast with one wave hitting 70 feet high.

[XkobyX]

yeah me too

[werdoner]

wish i could be back there again

[kose1982]

Very beautiful!

[cgroveOregon]

i love oregon

[xxxl222]

It must be very deep water not just 2-5 meters from its bed? Besides 75 feet this is 25 meters?

[Huckgh]

The water from the "breakers" is going about 30 meters in the air. The sea bottom in this area is probably about 30 meters deep. During a storm last week the ocean wave were averaging 15 meters high with one wave in the ocean measuring 70 feet high.

[westviewhomeandyard]

Hey Huckgh,

Wow, what amazing waves. That must have been an amazing storm. Come check out my BC storm video at westviewhomeandyard .

Cheers,

Robin

[trebor43470]

increadible so dangerous and so beautiful.

[KMelKang]

What an awesome video. I put this on MySpace to share with myspace buddies. Great job! It is the wonder of nature baby! :-)

[tillicus2]

I love these kinds of storms. Wish I could live at the Oregon Coast year 'round.

[GoinCreekin]

Man do I love storms on the Oregon Coast.

Excellent video!!

[dnadrummer]

such a great video. great energy.

[fistp]

Kinda makes the 'energy crisis' look like a connection problem, no?

[cdadave83814]

I now live in Coos Bay; I moved there a month after this video was taken; I visited Shore Acres on Christmas eve, and it was just like this.

[ktorca]

Is there a certain time of year that storms such as this are more frequent?

[tillicus2]

November seems to be a good month for storms at the Oregon Coast, at least in my experience.

[Stevenh1993]

deffinitly ive lived from bandon to coos bay my entire life and it seems that november and late october are the best times to whiness these awsome storms.

[Stevenh1993]

yeah!!! coos bay all the way baby

[silyfayg]

wikit

[BeeGeesRule]

Makes me homesick!!! ;)

[partytildawn]

Get your bathing suit! Let's jump in!

[felixleprechaun]

absolutely amazing!

[clamcrabber]

cool movie, what a storm

[bamako1111]

fantastic

[ymt281]

If you or someone likes, you could do this again someday with another storm, and aim the camera at an ideal perspective, don't allow any human voices, don't show any people, and don't let the camera jitter or move the tiniest bit, and get a good nine-minute chunk (youtube's max). It would be like an artistic movie, very right-brain and serene in effect for watchers. In effect, like being there and staring in a deep mood.

[Roshamboing]

Great video. Im from Langlois, but stationed in Okinawa and I hate missing a good old fashioned Oregon coast storm.

Thanks for taking this!

[attovishnu]

I was born and raised on the Oregon Coast... this feels like home and apple pie to me.

[heart4siuslaw]

Awesome. : )

[Cosmoline]

Great video!
