I will carry the knowledge that haboobs glow in the sunset in my jar of useless facts that they will never ask me on trivia night. 5.16.2026 - Grainfield, Kansas

Not criticizing anyone - you do you, with that being said, my first storm chase involved zero cameras of any kind. Just personal urge to see and experience the storm. My point and shoot Olympus 35mm film camera came with me on next chase. Believe it or not, I had zero followers!

OR - hear me out - maybe newer chasers should just forget about streaming and content and just focus on chasing for chasing sake. 🩷

Looking both ways down a road in Northern Minnesota during the wild northern lights show of 11/11. Can’t decide which way I like more!
