Today was an emotional roller coaster. Still processing. But this. This here - there is nothing like this feeling. Incredibly grateful I’m able to chase like I do. Taken near Ottumwa, IA #iawx #tornado #tornadoes

Helped my friend to try and save his house. Looked out the back and told him, “we gotta go”. A lot of emotions. Yeah it’s just material things but…man it’s still heavy. Photo from the backyard of my friends house. #cawx #PalisadesFire #fire

Still processing everything from tonight. We did what we could. Praying for my friends and their families. I had two friends up there whose homes we tried to save. When we left, it wasn’t looking good for both. #cawx #PalisadesFire #fire #Californa

Spot the difference! The Hedrick, IA EF4 vs. The EF5 from the movie Twister. Uncanny. Heading to Iowa again today, looks like a carbon copy of Friday - *deep breathe* here we go! #iawx #ilwx #tornado #tornadoes #twister #storm #StormHour

𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞. The greenest looking storm I’ve ever seen in my chasing career. Surprisingly there isn’t a solid answer for why. Hail? Sun angle? Cloud density & positioning? Regardless it was amazing to witness!. #green #stormhour #sdwx #mnwx

Yesterday was wild. Witnessed 4 to 5 tors, including this gorgeous beast near Crowell, TX. Unreal day. Would have missed it too if we didn’t ask Jesus and flipped a coin. Flipped it 14 times and it was heads (for TX) every time! #wxtwitter #txwx #StormHour

The #northenlights with the local sheriff just outside of El Reno, OK last night. He pulled up to make sure I was good, started talking about the lights and ask him if I could take a few photos of him. He was beyond excited with how they turned out! #okwx #Aurora

That was wild! Tornado south of Wells, MN taken at 7:30pm. I was actually driving home from the chase, and noticed the wind shifted 180 degrees, so I turned around and started filming just in case. Glad I was! Was able to report it right away. #mnwx @NWSTwinCities

Almost forgot what it was like to chase slow-moving storms with the past couple of chases having faster storm motions. Nothing like being on the backroads of Nebraska watching this beauty move slowly over the plains. #oldtownroad #newx #stormhour

Video of the possible tornado that hit east St. Paul, MN tonight. Lines up perfectly with the radar velocity signature. The damage path is so tight that this has to be a tornado, but I’ll leave it up to the @NWSTwinCities . Crazy night! #mnwx #wxtwitter

On top of everything I experienced yesterday, right after leaving the home of the grandparents I got in a car accident & totaled my car. A car in front of me stopped suddenly, and I went in the ditch, ended up hitting the blue truck perfectly to where the tail back end (1/4)

The risk was worth it! Used GOES-16 satellite to figure out where a possible red tide bloom was occurring - drove 2 hours away from where everyone else was seeing them and was rewarded greatly! #bioluminescence #bio #California #cawx
