Thank you, you filmed that beautifully from start to finish. I'd have loved to have be there in the middle of it watching, listening and feeling it all. 🥰❤️🏴
Lived there in 1975/6. Had a far worse storm than this – wind measured at over 100mph at local coastguards, and houses around the harbour flooded. Saw people blown over in the streets, and many lost chimneys and bits of roof
This weather isn't at all unknown around the coast. Mind, it is beautiful. One of the most astounding sights my husband and I saw was at the raised car park at Medmerry Beach in Selsey, one dark late evening in West Sussex about 25 years ago. We saw two separate thunder storms with fork lightning quite some miles apart. They travelled towards each other over about fifteen minutes, met, both striking lightning as they crossed over each others paths. It was really spectacular and I doubt I shall ever again see anything as like that.
Those poor dogs. Absolutely no need to be dragging them along the sea front in that weather. I've lived on the coast and would never dream of taking my dogs that close to the sea during a storm. Plenty of places to walk them with less danger. Rant over. Thank you for a great video.
And what great sea walls our forefathers built, that’s not the first time Whitby’s withstood a battering from the North Sea, it doesn’t mean the climates nakered. 1 swallow does not a summer make !
❤❤❤ i miss this soo much, i now reside in Australia, am originally from Sunderland. This kind of day/weather was the best. The spray used to sting your face😮, but the sound and feeling was great.you would go out in it, then get all warm and toasty in the pub😊😊😊 P.s best fish and chips ever are in whitby 👍🇦🇺❤️
I live in So-so California near the Pacific Ocean. Like most everything else here, the coastline of the Pacific is BORING!!!! It's not like being near the sea at all. Now, in this video, we see a REAL ocean making its presence known. Absolutely GLORIOUS! I'm envious… love the old guy out walking his dog like it was just another summer day!
I have to admire people that hear the worst storm in years is coming and think 'Ooh – I'll get my camera and go and film near the largest bodies of water and the fastest flooding and overflowing rivers I can!'
Fabulous video. Must say you’re brave going king out in that storm to Whitby. It was violent enough in Middlesbrough.
Funny how Arriva can run the x4 @6:49 through that storm and can climb Saltburn bank in the ice and snow yet wouldn’t run a bus past the Dogs Trust near Sadberge Darlington up a hill that is nowhere near as steep or twisty as Saltburn Bank because they said (and I quote) “ It’s dangerous”.
I live in Australia now but remember many holidays at Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay. Whitby is was a lovely place back when I was a child but like everything else it will have changed. My dad introduced me to Oysters at Whitby lol!

What the hell are kids doing on the beach in storm conditions ?
The Power of the sea is Frightening. Wouldn't get me near it .on a stormy Day .
Thank you for posting this, thank you for not putting silly music.

It’s definitely windy.

This comment section is much more wild than I was expecting.
Storm noise on headphones great – regular sniffing not so much. Still gets a 'like' from me though.
I've had worse wind and wetness after a dodgy Turkish kebab…
From the thumbnail I though it was black and white. I will be there next week, hoping the weather is a bit better.
Wow, such a strong storm!!
Great edit my friend
Great stuff indeed, I was tempted to drive up from Grimsby as I love it here.. Especially with my 📸

You are made of stern stuff Sir! Well done!

Hope the tiny village neat near whitby is ok named staithes
It surprises me how many people go down to the coast and drive by the coast on days like this…
Absolutely fantastic ❤
Thanks so much for this amazing footage 😊
Tis but nothing compared to ‘65 and ‘72, they were some big old seas and wind then.I remember
Its a storm such as this that wrecked the the Demeter of Varna that brought Dracula ashore, if anyone sees a LARGE BLACK WOLF….
Qué maravilla ♥️
I used to fish off the end of the right hand pier back in 2003
Thank you for being brave enough to weather the storm for us! Love your channel! Your neighbour Anna, Scarborough. 👍❤️
Whitby is my favourite holiday destination. But this just looks so bleak and uninviting. Think I'll stick with the summer months!
Even in this weather Whitby is absolutely gorgeous
