Crazy it's been 20 years! I was hedging west of this storm when it formed and had a hard time catching up. The tornado crossing the highway at St. Peter and blocking it with debris effectively ended my chase. So much moisture in the air you had to be close to see anything.

Happy Chugwater EFU day for those who celebrate! I was hiding behind this hill as the tornado dropped 😒

I see that gerrymander 👀

Tons of heavy, wet snow in the trees in south Denver pushing branches to the ground. Just had to shake the snow out of my small trees to save them

Here's a closeup of the fireball. I could actually hear the thunderous WHOOSH as it erupted in flame after appearing to be struck by a large piece of debris from the #tornado

June 15, 2023: As many were just going about their day, this #tornado formed and immediately began to carve an EF3 damage path through Perryton, TX. After impacting residential and downtown areas, the tornado collapsed a radio tower and exploded a fuel storage tank as I rushed to escape

From a 0% "marginal" day to a confirmed #supercell #tornado — sometimes the high plains over-deliver 🌪️
May 25, 2017 I caught this spinner in Yuma County, CO, on timelapse — Turretcam footage shows clear ground circulation (arrow) forming right on the inflow boundary. Full chase log link in 🧵

Everyone remembers Wray, but for a few the magic started in Eckley. May 7, 2016 I blasted east, betting on a #supercell cluster erupting near the state border. Just as I arrived this scene unfolded — a ghostly #tornado touching down north of Eckley, #Colorado 🌪️ Full chase log link in 🧵

It's gonna be May 🌪️ in 71 days. Tornadoes will again be roaming the Plains.

Flashback: May 17, 2019 I was chasing this monster #supercell near McCook #Nebraska. After a white-knuckle detour through a torrential rain core, I broke out just in time to intercept this EF-1 #tornado near Farnam.

It is currently 7°F (-14°C) outside here 😮

The temp in the BunShack is 23.2°F (-4.9°C), which is much better, but I turned the heat on, lol

now, I'm waiting inside the house for it to warm up a bit 🙂

thankfully, I can monitoring the inside temp of the BunShack from my phone 😎

I don't even want to look at the windchill, lol

My Laramie #tornado video says "hallo!" from #dresden https://www.dhmd.de/en/exhibitions/the-air-we-share
#FediWx

The first #SevereWeather warnings of the day are going up along the Kansas/Missouri state line. The next 48 hours are going to be rough for many people in the US.

I made a small web app that can cross-reference your phone's GPS location with these weather alerts so you know for sure if you need to take shelter. It's free/libre and available at https://wx4.me.

If you or your loved ones are at risk this weekend, send them a link and boost for visibility!

June 19, 2018. This serpentine #tornado formed near the backside of a supercell near Prospect Valley, #Colorado during an incredible stretch of severe #storms on the high plains

#FediWx

May 26, 2017. Sometimes the show truly begins after the storm passes. Here in Colorado, the sky transforms as mammatus clouds reflect the fiery hues of the setting sun, painting a masterpiece of light and texture that feels otherworldly

#FediWx

June 17, 2015. A lone supercell with double #rainbow hovers over the grasslands adjacent to the rugged Badlands of #SouthDakota

#FediWx

June 22, 2021. An intensely electrified #supercell over 10 miles tall crackles with power as it towers above an ethanol plant in #Nebraska

#FediWx

A strongly rotating #supercell churns over the open plains near the North Dakota – Montana border. The #storm surged with energy before finally dropping a few #tornadoes
