A typical Swedish summer day with rain & thunder.
hello everyone welcome back to my little little Channel I'm back in F bua it's uh Wednesday and uh weather is amazing right now uh there is chance or whatever you would call it a risk for rain and thunder maybe in an hour or two uh it will be from the West direction that direction so it's kind of difficult to see if it shows I can't see the clouds but anyway it looks like it's going to be a great day still on vacation so my plan is uh two nights but uh we found out yesterday that my daughter is our daughter is uh coming on Friday from Dubai where she lives and works so either I have to break up tomorrow or very early on Friday morning to get home and do some grocery shopping and pick her up at the airport in Copenhagen we'll see I haven't decided yet I think my lovely wife wants me to be back at tomorrow but ah we'll see if I set the alarm to 5 or 6 in the morning that will be enough time we'll see so this is what it looks like on the sunny day not too crowded my guess is that water is just ridiculous cold oh this is kind of amazing it's July majority in people people in Sweden don't have started the vacation yet that's another week or two but still look at the beach there were eight cars on the parking lot eight all right it's cold yep it's cold it's A4 to 12 I've been up since 5 buy seagull woke me up so I had an early breakfast I think I want some something to eat now lunch haven't decided what to have for lunch I can do an omelette or I can do some kind of pasta or I could actually get some hot dogs as well we'll see so uh I did go into the to the sea I was I hardly got wet I was maybe in the water for second two it was cold but not too bad so there is no sign of rain and thunder but humidity is 90% and it's 25° Centigrade so it's it's warm it's quite [Music] nice so lunch crap one so it's not really a gourmet lunch it's pre-made tortellinis it will do the job moment ago it was quite windy but it dropped again for some reason it seems like every time I'm at this spot waiting for bad weather it doesn't happen you when you look around maybe you can get an answer because it's just Moss there is no grass there's no oh well there are some pine trees but they will survive it is what it is uh blue sky is gone it's still blue but it's Cloud so my son texted me while ago it was rain and thunder in malma um so it looks like it's on its way it's uh still 22° cenr still warm um it's uh 77% humidity and there is 50% chance of rain at 3 in an hour which is most likely going to happen so if I turn the camera around see from the Blue Sky it's still blue but it's blue clouds so we're expecting in that direction on Lightning Maps there is a huge thunderstorm in Germany Poland uh not sure it's going to last all the way to Sweden but we'll see so it's 2:30 and I can hear the thunder in distance it's still probably 30 40 km from here um sky is getting very gray or bluish um so we'll see I don't think the microphone picks up the Thunder but I can hear in the distance so I'm actually looking forward to this I hope it will be some heavy rain prepared a tent it looks like a mess inside I just put everything in IND doors but uh if the forecast is correct I will have plenty of time in the tent this afternoon we'll see There It Is Well I picked up on the other microphone I think but uh I could hear some loud thunder straight South which is the cell is South prob North oh it's going to be interesting few drops but I think we're getting very close I can feel drops coming down yeah I think it's time to make a coffee and uh just wait for wait for it so coffee time small cup yeah that's and I thought I had it there it is now we're waiting yep can hear the rain now might need to close the door which will make do so it's going to be interesting to see if this last this afternoon or if it's just a shower forast is still all over the place everything from Amber warnings to not much more than what it is right now yeah so it's uh 3:00 uh it's been raining it's still raining not too heavy it's nice to [Applause] be yeah raining uh the forec will continue for at least an hour I just pretty close [Music] there is a small rain fly you're supposed to put on the top uh it's probably good idea because I can see it's cooling up there [Applause] now well it's dry it really doesn't matter but if it continues it should have been up there I don't know so the Red Dot is made and yellow or lightning see it's heavy thunder right here and then rain heavy rain we'll see this is what I wanted at so I'm happy with this as long as the tent is dry I'm happy I can see from the chimney there are some drops so it's not it's not supposed to be tight with the Jack over around the chimney there is a spark rest at the top so if I would start a p now it would still be burning it won't be water coming inside the chimney see you can have a look outside yep it's raining totally overcast and yep not a surprise you can hear the rain so I think the rain has picked up again it's pretty heavy now the Thunder is still around us about 10 km both north and south and yeah so far this tent is not leaking not yet I hope not I hope it will stay dry it's the pomoli Dome X6 four fif fif with this tent and um today I struggled a bit to pitch the tent all by myself because it was quite windy um oh Jesus that's good but I manag the only thing well not the only thing there was a few things but one of the things since it's a dome shaped tent uh when it's raining like this and if you haven't put up a tarp which I didn't do today uh when you open the door it will get wet inside so I have the um the ground sheet no did the fireproof mat indoor uh but I haven't put it all the way to the uh to the door so I still I work with my shoes and uh yeah keep to bit right but otherwise since it's own shaped when you open rain will come in so I knew it's and hoped it could do rain but I didn't bother to put up a top today since it's not going to be hopefully not rain all evening maybe an hour or two then it will stop so I will be fine this time and uh it's not really it's maybe a little bit windy but even if there're three doors they will be wet when you open them so right now it's aadel uh there is no more rain uh it's still overcast cloudy I can still hear a bit of Thunder Over the Baltic Sea uh the wind has dropped to nothing um still warm 21° tent was dry on the inside um I think actually it will clear up later on tonight if you look over there you could see well it's not blue sky but it's much brighter so I wouldn't be surprised if it would clear up there was this Mist in the air but it's nice now yeah I'm going to keep the door open now for a while I'm still keeping the wood stove burning um just because I can but it's nice to get some air in so yeah bring it back later for dinner getting some oil in the pan you know what that's the Sy sound I want to hear we do some bit of salt sorry about cheating about the salad that's where it is [Music] sometimes some tomatoes that sound of theising steak it could have been even [Music] better on the wood stove but it's too hot I'm pretty sure I will fire up the wood stove later on tonight in a couple of hours after the sunset if I'm still awake depend this tent I got to say I love it but it's so big I don't really have a good space to dry if it's wet so if it's lunchtime tomorrow and dry I might go home we'll see tomorrow is another day as always people always claim it's the best meal ever so do I I mean this is how you want to meet him for I think it was yesterday I saw a video Luke outdoor gear review he was doing a review review on the snow peak cutting board and the knife and uh I can just agree it's kind of expensive but I've used it for 3 years 4 years and it's excellent that's good yeah so I had dinner steak salad Tomatoes it was very very good I'm full I'm tired but it's good I forgot to or I missed something happened with my GoPro when I tried to record the last session but it failed anyway the the what I was trying to say is that uh when it comes to food when you actually cook food that is always so much better than freeze dried food there are some that is okay but they are never as good as when you cook um if you do a mul today hike yep get the point if you have a wild camp at the summit for one night yep can see the point thing is in this area we always have to carry water uh there is a stream couple of hundred meters that direction and that water I would never drink that even though I would have the best filter because it's it smells it's dark it's brown it's I I think I would rather get in the car and drive to petrol station and buy something to drink then actually drink from that sauce which is not a sauce so unfortunately you have to carry water and I generally consume about 3 L for 24/7 for one overnight liter in the hall for cooking in coffee some for cleaning yourself cleaning your plates and everything and then something just some to drink so it's a it's always a heavy backpack when you had to carry 3 4 L extra and it's not that easy to refill there are some nice areas to hike but you have to plan where to stop to fill up water so it's uh qu past 8 and uh it did clear up and we did get a sunset there it is beautiful and calm you know what um let's go down to the uh beach again see what it looks like you can hear the waves coming in it's probably about the same size I saw ear little but we'll go have a look what they're not big you can't serve them but they're still beautiful so this is a beach and this is an area where you're allowed to Wild Camp even on the beach over there is a national park not low still some clouds wind dropped just here have the noise from the waves which is relaxing so Thunder is gone and so it's way I'm not thinking about getting into the sea again that' be too cold we'll see what weather is like tomorrow if it's still 25° maybe but that won't be on camera so good evening 9:00 um just started a stove uh not that I need it because it's still 18° Centigrade so it's not necessary but it's comfort so I will a few logs no not logs small piece of rwood for an hour but I'm um yeah I'm about to quite close to in my sleeping bag and uh hopefully I will sleep like a puppy and uh I'll see you all in the morning cheers so good morning everyone it's uh quter 2 9 um I had a good night of sleep I've been up since 700 so it was a good night's of sleep uh I had breakfast I had coffee I'm going to have another coffee and uh and I'll just have to wait and see what the weather would be the forecast is rain at lunchtime and my tent is semi dry uh at least where the sun has been on the tent the back side of the tent is still humid wet but um well my original plan was to stay until tomorrow morning but I think I said that yesterday my daughter is arriving from Dubai so we need to do some shopping and we need to prepare for and pick her up at the airport in Copenhagen so a bit stressful morning to get everything done so if the radar shows rain coming in I will probably try to break up uh before the rain when the tent is kind of dry so that's my plan at least that's a great little pot it's the Avenue pasta pot one liter so 230 G canister fits inside with a small stove and the lid actually sits and it doesn't rattle and weight is very good not that that matter with a 16 kilos of hot stove and 9 kilos of tent chair cot table wood but for uh other trips it's good all right I'm going to enjoy my coffee so folks this is it I'm um ready to go home and um yeah to summarize it was very nice to 24 hours or just about yesterday with the rain and thunder stove brilliant so this morning has been good some coffee some breakfast and um forecast has changed again it doesn't look like there going to be any rain at all in this area but as I said earlier I have quite a lot of things to do tomorrow so I think it's time to go home so see you next time cheers
