Chasing the Storms
There is more to chasing storms than just hitting the road in your car and looking for dark clouds. There is forecasting, planning, predicting, reacting and instinct. It’s not luck that chasers tend to be on good storms most of the time, it’s a lot of experience and knowledge that gets us there.
This section goes over all I know about forecasting and chasing, with tales from the road, sample forecasts, philosophy and more.

CHASE YOUR PASSION
“Storm chasing is a soul-sucking addiction…”
I said that. It’s my quote. It’s longer than that of course. But the point is…to be good at it, is almost to be addicted to it. Chasing storms, photographing them, time-lapsing…I do it because I almost cannot help but do it.
I hope this section helps you learn to chase, see different strategies and get out and do it yourself.
