WHERE HURRICANES, TORNADOES, LIGHTNING, BLIZZARDS, AND FLOODS ARE NO MATCH!
No eyewall landfall, but Hurricane Earl was fun on the Outer Banks.
The chase did not involve a ton of planning or driving. It only took about 6 hours to drive down, arriving around 6pm on Wednesday. I pretty spent the next few hours scoping out the areas from Cape Hatteras as far as the Ferry [...]

Update (10:00am) I delayed my departure. Right now looks like the earliest I’ll be heading out is a little after noon time. Also looking to pull back on the scope/distance on my chase. I will be heading out for sure…just have to assess things as they stand and what the likelihood is for getting good [...]

Won’t be an eyewall/landfall hurricane intercept, but we’ll be there.
Planning is in full swing and at the moment looks like departure from Maryland will be around Mid-day Wednesday with arrival in northern North Carolina shores around 4am-ish via Richmond. Travel further south may be done if time and fuel [...]

The new trend….bash stormtrack.org
While I certainly understand those who wish to no longer participate in some forums, it seems rather unreasonable as of late for folks to bash certain forums too. In particular it is www.stormtrack.org. The site has suffered a number of bouts with unneeded and ridiculous drama [...]

Well known storm chaser Mike Hollingshead’s latest tornado & chase related film.
The second DVD I’ve picked up for the 2010 season (previous was Bullseye Bowdle review). This video was done is a similar way, pretty much in the “chaser highlights” reel, but with a little more editing and planning. [...]

Bullseye Bowdle aims to bring the viewer great video of a fantastic chase day for many
One of the first chaser related films to be released covering the 2010 chase season has some great footage, but the overall production is more on par with a chaser highlights production more than [...]
