I like long walks through hurricane force winds and baseball sized hail. Dot chaser.

A semi ended my chase early today. I'm okay. What really matters is the devastating damage these storms have done and are continuing to do. #newx #wxtwitter

Hey folks. I should have put this in the original description. The sheriff I talked to said that the truck driver was okay. Knee injury, but otherwise okay.

My view of the wedge near Spalding, NE as it clears the intersection of US 281 and NE 91. Little did I know that @ReedTimmerAccu and company just had an incredible intercept. #Nebraska #newx #wxtwitter

@Erin_Kwx @Wicky_dubs_WX Semi driver banged up his knee pretty good but was fine otherwise. At least that's what the sheriff told me.

#auroraborealis from Sunday night's show. I needed to catch up on sleep so unfortunately I missed last night's short show. #Minnesota

Makes me happy to see so many people who have never seen the lights, finally get a hefty glimpse at them. Had some intense overheads for a bit here.

@SpacecoastPix @ConnorWX @LandonWX10 @_Radarr The semi didn't swerve around anybody. That truck was driving behind the semi.

@StrmchsrHunterF @WhiteWeather_ Best take. Depends on the show. I'll take a photogenic tor over the aurora, but when it's like this and lasts for hours, it's a close one.

@Vincent_Ledvina Eastern India and Bangladesh actually do have a little tornado alley of their own. Doesn't really compare to the States' alley as far as the number of tors go, but Bangladesh does hold the record for the deadliest tornado in history.
