What Germans Do Before Every Winter Storm — Most Americans Skip All of It

What Germans Do Before Every Winter Storm — Most Americans Skip All of It Forty years of German winters taught one thing that most American homes still miss: storm preparation isn't a warning day scramble, it's a ten minute routine run before every single storm, whether the sky looks bad yet or not.

In this video, walk through each one, along with what American storm coverage keeps leaving out, and the single German word that ties the whole routine together.
