Tornadoes: An Elusive Species
In case you didn’t know, it’s Spring. Winter finally packed up and shipped out almost two months behind schedule. Anyone else experience snow in April? How about May? Moving on to warmer topics…. We chased, and chased, and chased the past few months. Clearly I would have posted an update had we found more than…
Kickstarter Continues: 17 Days Left!
Make Storm Rush a film! Only 17 days left to help me chase storms and storm chasers. Even a donation of $10 will help. Remember, each donation comes with a reward from a book to your name in the film. There’s even a juggling lesson from a storm chaser! You have nothing to lose: if…
Kickstarter Campaign Launched
After seeing the success of several of my friends in launching and successfully funding Kickstarter Campaigns, I decided it was my turn to take a stab at it. With my upcoming move to Norman, OK I’ll have more time for chasing, video editing, and freelancing. So, it’s time to make my first film and I…
Storm Assist: 2012 was Extreme!
As I spent my weekend watching chase videos from 2012, I realized…2012 wasn’t that bad. I managed to see 7 tornadoes; technically 8, but I couldn’t confirm the Norman, OK one as it ripped up the earth just beyond an unfortunately tall patch of trees. I saw 5 of my 2012 tornadoes the very next day,…
Shiny things got in the way again.
Did you miss me? I know you did. I’ve been distracted, well, mostly by my grown-up job…but that pays the bills so I deal. Plus, I like what I do, so that helps. What have I been up to aside from SDS? Preparing for storm season! (aka dealing with SDS) After I got the car,…
Another dud, but more shiny things!
I’m ready for storm season. Okay, mentally I’m prepared but I have a whole slew of things I still need to be completely ready. Most importantly, a video camera for streaming. What do I have in the mean time? A new Subaru Impreza! My canon T2i (working on a new lens) A new HP ENVY…
Let it snow!
For the first time in what feels like an eternity, Denver finally has a weather watch out. 3-8 inches of snow will fall around here, and I guess elevation helps decide who wins the higher amount. And although I live slightly south of the city, I’m hoping we get pummeled. A girl can dream, right?…
NWF and the return of thunder
Last weekend I met up with Chris at the National Weather Festival in Norman, OK. It was great to run into friends earlier than Chasercon for once! …with the exception of running into a few folks while chasing. I miss chasing. Anyway… I was there to help represent Rapid Rotation Storm Tours. The festival had…
Checking in after Sandy checked out.
You may or may not know this, but I’m from Pennsylvania. I try to hide it, but sometimes words like “farhead” and “wooter” come out. My family is still in Pennsylvania and surrounding areas, including Delaware and DC. Everyone is accounted for after the landfall of Superstorm Sandy last night, and I believe all have…
What froze over?
While I’m on the topic of never posting because the sun is always out, winter showed itself this past weekend. Denver saw an inch in some places, only on cars mind you, but you fail to miss the point that it is OCTOBER. Also, I had a milestone birthday. The big 3-0. Ahem, moving on….…
