NOAA Warns Washington D.C. Residents to Carry Winter SURVIVAL Kits as Blizzard Approaches
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
All right, the NOAA, that's the National Oceanographic and, I think, Atmospheric Administration, is that what it is?
The NOAA, part of the government, has said to those people in Washington, D.C., you're about to get pummeled with 30 inches of snow.
Yep, 30 inches.
And in their radio weather announcement, they've stated, quote...
They try to translate this for the dumbasses living in Washington, D.C. who don't know anything about preparedness.
They have a section now called Precautionary Slash Preparedness Actions.
And it says, a blizzard warning means severe winter weather conditions are expected or occurring.
Really?
Is that what a blizzard warning means?
I mean, so look, this is how dumb people have become in America that you have to tell them the definition of a blizzard warning.
Like most people, you know, a generation ago, they would have said, oh, a blizzard warning probably means it's going to be a freaking blizzard, right?
You know, a lot of white snow, wind, you know, hard to see, you know, difficult to travel, you know, you'd probably freeze if you're walking around in a tank top and shorts and flip-flops like that girl in Wisconsin died a couple days ago pulling that off.
You know, Americans used to be intelligent enough to know what a blizzard warning meant.
Now they have to translate it for you.
So it continues with the NOAA, quote, falling and blowing snow with strong winds and poor visibilities are likely.
Really?
You mean a blizzard means falling and blowing snow with strong winds and poor visibility?
No way!
Holy cow, I'm going to have to rethink my whole paradigm of what a blizzard is.
I thought it was tropical sunshine, pina colada on the beach, gentle waves lapping on my ankles.
No, apparently it has to do with falling and blowing snow.
It continues, quote, this will lead to white-out conditions.
White privilege comes in.
Can you believe the NOAA and their racism?
White-out conditions.
Of course it's all racist.
The snow is white, too.
And you notice how the white snow blankets everything like it's controlling it?
It's the man.
It's the white man blizzard.
Uh-huh.
Whiteout conditions.
I knew the NOAA was racist.
We've got to get some social justice warriors over there shoveling snow to get rid of that.
That's the thing.
Find some social justice warriors in the D.C. area, hand them a shovel, and say, we're going to get rid of the white.
Here, clear my driveway.
See what happens.
See if they go for it.
Alright, it continues.
Making travel extremely dangerous.
Do not travel.
That's a whole sentence from the NOAA. Do not travel.
Okay.
As if...
There are probably people out there who realize, yeah, there's 30 inches of snow coming in a blizzard condition.
Hey, let's take a trip to the park.
No, let's drive around town and go get some barbecue.
So the NOAA has to tell people, do not travel.
Really, they should put in parentheses, in case you're a complete idiot.
Nevertheless, it continues.
If you must travel...
If you must travel...
And here's the real gem of this.
Have a winter survival kit with you.
Whoa!
Wait a minute.
I thought the government and the mainstream media told us that survival was kooky.
If you're a survivalist, you're some kind of redneck, gun-toting, Bible-thumping...
A tree-squirrel-eating southerner.
Oh, if you're into survival, there's something wrong with you.
You're some kind of a kooky conspiracy theorist.
How dare you want to be engaged in survival?
But now the government says, have a winter survival kit with you.
Notice they didn't say have a winter survival kit back at your house while you're stuck in your car with no survival kit.
So now they're actually saying you should have a survival kit.
Well, this is a big change.
It used to be just they would say, no, no, it's survival.
You're probably anti-government if you have a survival kit.
What, you don't believe?
Us, when we tell you that everything's okay, the economy's just fine, then you know the stock market's going to recover, every little dip is just a buying opportunity, everything's cool, everything's awesome.
That's the government.
You don't need survival, you don't need preparedness, you don't need diversification.
Keep all your money and dollars and put it all in your bank so they can take it from you when the crash happens.
Alright, if you get stranded, it says, stay with your vehicle.
No!
I think you should wander aimlessly in white-out conditions in your t-shirt, your tank top, and your shorts and your flip-flop.
You know, flip-flops are kind of like snowshoes, you know, sort of.
Just a smaller surface area.
If you have a good imagination because you believe what you see on CNN, then flip-flops are kind of snowshoes.
You could flip-flop around a little while, and then after a while you might stop flopping as you freeze.
But really?
Stay with your vehicle?
You mean I should stay inside something that provides shelter?
No!
I want to wander aimlessly down the highway and hope someone rescues me.
I can't believe this preparedness advice.
Yeah, we should have an online seminar.
The NOAA teaches survival...
They would have really intelligent tips like don't jump off tall buildings.
Don't wander aimlessly in a blizzard when you have your car right there next.
Stay in your car.
Don't drink strychnine.
Don't look down the barrel of loaded firearms to see if they're loaded or not.
Yeah, that's good advice from the NOAA. If you get stranded to stay with your vehicle, prepare for the possibility of power outages during snowy and cold conditions.
All right, now this is actually sensible advice, the first sentence that probably needs to be stated.
Yeah, you should prepare for the grid to go down intermittently or for some period of time, three days, three weeks, who knows?
So the NOAA now is in the survival business, and they're really covering the basics, like Survival 101.
Hey, wear a coat.
Have on long pants.
If you're in your car and you're driving in 30 inches of snow, don't wear shorts.
Have a pair of gloves.
And, you know, maybe a hat would be nice, some earmuffs, some mittens.
You know, have a cell phone with you that isn't out of batteries, and better yet, you know, have a radio, a CB radio, even better.
All right, so they are now predicting various hazard types here.
Heavy snow and wind with blowing and drifting snow.
That's actually their sentence.
Heavy snow and wind with blowing and drifting snow Friday afternoon through Saturday night.
Sleet may mix with the snow Friday night into Saturday morning before changing back to all snow.
Basically, there's a bunch of cold stuff coming out of the sky, alright?
Just get used to it.
Sleet may mix with the snow.
What is this, a recipe for a smoothie?
And you add in some lemon juice.
And you take some snow and you put in some ginger.
Sorry, I'm having too much fun with this.
Maybe it's because I love the snow.
I actually grew up in a climate where we used to sled as kids.
Did you ever do that?
The snow comes, it shuts down the schools, it's awesome.
You get to grab a sled and you get to go hang out with friends and slide down hills and break your teeth out when you hit trees and whatever else happens.
It's all fun.
Okay, so the city of Washington, D.C. is expected to receive around 24 inches.
Alright, conditions are expected to deteriorate Friday afternoon with the heaviest snow.
Heavy snow and blowing snow will cause dangerous conditions, it says.
Really?
And will be a threat to life and property.
No way!
Travel is expected to be severely limited, if not impossible, during the height of the storm Friday night and Saturday.
Well, it's kind of interesting that this is happening on a weekend.
So, you know...
Have a common sense approach to this.
Those of you who are on the East Coast, I know that you're laughing at this along with me because you're already well prepared.
If you listen to the Health Ranger report, you've got preparedness nailed.
You already have a survival kit, right?
You've got backup food, water, medicine, communications, gear.
You've got like a sleeping bag in your house in case the power goes out and your house gets cold, you can still hunker down and be just fine.
You're all set.
But you're going to see a panic in the mainstream culture of D.C. and Baltimore and other cities that are impacted by this because, again, we live in a nation now where the masses are preparedness morons and they have to be told things like, oh, if it's a white-out blizzard, don't leave your car and wander aimlessly down the highway on foot.
That's the kind of advice now that we have to tell people.
So we're like, shouldn't we just let them just do that and win the Darwin Award?
I mean, seriously, as a society, shouldn't we...
Hey, if you think that walking through a blizzard in flip-flops is a great idea, just go for it, man.
Go for it.
We'll try to revive you after your body's been on ice for, you know, 48 hours.
And sometimes we can revive you, right?
A little cryogenic experiment with people who are removing themselves from the human gene pool.
So, this is why I'm kind of, I'm with George Carlin on this.
I kind of like to see humanity's response to natural disasters because it sorts out the survivors from the morons, doesn't it?
You know, whether it's a hurricane or a severe storm or who knows, one day like a grid down, lights out scenario, cyber attack on the grid.
Right?
What if it takes out the whole northeastern power grid for ten days?
That would tend to sort people out.
You know, you'd have the morons, and then you'd have the actual people who are ready to survive.
And that would sort them out very quickly, which is a great service for the rest of us to observe.
Okay.
Alright, so that's the story.
Everybody stay safe, obviously, and you're going to do just fine.
Don't fret.
Get your supplies well in advance.
If you haven't already stocked up, you need to do it right now before the crowds.
Probably too late, actually, so forget what I just said.
You need to hunker down, stay safe, and also don't forget to practice self-defense if it is legal in your area.
I don't anticipate a lot of break-ins.
I don't anticipate...
I don't think this is going to be a high crime time.
It's going to be a time when people, it's too damn cold for people to go out and rob other people.
They're going to stay home.
So this is not a huge self-defense type of emergency, in my opinion.
Anyway, stay safe.
