storm chasing

The Last Chase: Remembering Tim Samaras:



I don't know if anyone likes storm chasing but I love it. Tim was my hero when it came to tornadoes.

Have you seen one before? Tell about it. Wish there was a fourm on here just about weather.

I used to go storm chasing with my mom and she would get pictures of lightning. Pretty fucking sick. I was in the middle of the tornadoes that ripped through central illinois a couple years ago. Less than two blocks to our side the whole town was completely demolished.

I didn't see them though i was stuck in the basement asleep on kratom, and wake up to sirens, hear a huge ass train go by, and my sisters gathering up the pets. Five minutes later i go "WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED?" I honestly thought i was dreaming. Tornadoes in november? It snowed last week, that can't happen, it's illegal! Then my sisters all nope actually that was a tornadoe. I walk outside and the whole city is like something out of a post apocalyptic wasteland. Nobody outside, dead quiet then cops flooding every street, curfews. I meet up with my friends and we got drunk and stoned and looked at the wreckage. It was fucking nuts.

The city got put on lockdown, so we started planning on how we were gonna start smuggling in as many drugs as we could, and be the only people holding/selling for the week after. Feel bad for everyone who got hit. The thing i kept wondering is what goes through the guys head who got absolutely no damge to the house and his neighbors house was non existent, and vice versa. Storms are awesome though, I love chasing them.

I don't have a particular favorite when it comes to stormchasers, the professional chasers seem way too dramatic and obnoxious compared to the amateur ones. Love watching all the storm chasing videos though!

If I'm not mistaken, November has had some pretty nasty tornadoes. I was in Nashville, about 30 miles on the edge actually. A supercell was pushing northeast and we're setting on a porch and watched it make a wedged tornado. If there was buildings around it would have been a F4 or F5. It only uprooted a few trees and was listed as a F2.

I fucking love storms and weather phenomena. Storm chasing would be a dream job for me.

I wish I lived in tornado valley or somewhere similar but I always lived where weather was rather boring.:frown:

This was a f0 tornado that crossed the highway about a mile behind us as we took shelter in a tunnel.

Was it raining? Most dangerous tornadoes are when it's raining and they became rain wrapped.

It looks like this funnel formed from some cluster clouds. Where was this?

The funnel cloud was in Bethesda md. Nobody else report it although there were some waterspouts reported on the Chesapeake bay about the same time.

The tornado was a long track f0 from Potomac md to laurel md

Most tornadoes come from the south and head northeast. I'm unsure about northern tornadoes. I've got it wrote down in my note book.

The grate plains and a few more states get them supercells. Unfortunately my state hasn't had that many, mostly clusters and scattered storms. don't get me wrong they can get pretty nasty.

I used to be obsessed with storm chasers when I was younger but as I got older I didn't really care anymore but I've fallen in love with thunderstorms again and I found a good spot where I can watch the thunderstorms roll in. Tornadoes aren't really common in this area though

I've never storm chased as we don't have many tornadoes in South Florida, but I get extremly excited and fascinated when hurricanes are heading my way.

The last time we got hit really hard was by Katrina & Wilma within a month of each other. I wish I would've filmed some of it from my balcony but the winds got up to 120mph with Wilma so I couldn't film it without probably being lifted off my balcony.

I don't tell anyone IRL, but I always hope to have a storm hit us during hurricane season. Now after the storm passes, everything is fucked up, there's no power anywhere, and there's curfews enforced, my fascination and interest turn into hatred for storms very quickly.

Although it was nice to be able to see all the stars at night when all the power was off for 3 weeks. Only time in South Florida I've ever been able to see more than 3 stars in the sky at once. It was beautiful and I can't stand how bad the light pollution is here.
