*Watch Live Video Feed When I'm Out Chasing - KWCH has an interactive map on their website where you can see my gps location on the map. By clicking on my location it will bring up a new window where you can watch live streaming video of us in the field storm chasing. It is a lot of fun to virtual chase from home. There are a lot of other chasers that show up on the map, not just KWCH chasers, so the odds are there will always be live streaming video available for any storm you want to see across the plains. With tornado warned storms you should be able to see dozens of different feeds so you can see the storm/tornado from any angle. It is awesome. Here is the link to the map page on KWCH chaser map. The link takes you to the KWCH Weather Home Page so click on the Chaser Radar link in the Weather Kit box. That will bring up the chaser map page. There is a box on the side of the map that you can select whoevers name you want to watch out of or just click on any vehicle on the map to pull up a new page with their live video feed. Here's the link Chaser Map
Follow my forecasts and updates during storm season on my blog. I usually post daily when there is something worth talking about. Usually I post tornado forecasts, but as hurricane season ramps up I follow that too. Here is the link
Watch my video from each chase this season. I try to get my video uploaded as soon as I get done chasing so there is very little lag between when the event occurred and when I get it uploaded. I typically link the video on my blog, but if you don't follow that and want to see the video here is a link to Loaded Gun Chasing's channel on youtube
April 14, 2012 Tornado Outbreak Major tornado outbreak in Kansas. Central and south central Kansas got raked by several tornadic supercells. Wichita was hit by an EF3 tornado after dark. We were on several different tornadic supercells that day. We saw several funnels and also witnessed the Hesston to Goessel tornado (just north of Wichita). We intercepted the tornadic supercell that hit Wichita in Hayesville, which is right where the tornado initially touched down. We followed the storm through Wichita and up to Eldorado. Below is a link to my video from the Hesston, KS tornado. Hesston, Kansas tornado video
Rare Anticyclonic tornado April 9, 2012 Woodward, Oklahoma tornadic supercell. I happened to be in the right place at the right time to get good video of an anticyclonic tornado (spins the wrong way). It's very uncommon in the northern hemisphere, with only about 1 in 1000 tornadoes being anticyclonic. The Weather Channel did a break down of my video with Greg Forbes to show how it was spinning in the wrong direction. That was a nice bonus to the chase. It's always nice to get some recognition for your work. Below is the link to my video on youtube from that storm chase. Woodward, Oklahoma and anticyclonic tornado video
