After weathermanning through the morning, I went north from the station and ended up stranded in the town of Tamaroa, Illinois where record flash flooding was taking place.

We started the day with no intention to chase and ended up watching half of the 90-minute life of a monster, ground-shaking EF-4 wedge.

An incredible, Top 5 all-time tornado intercept chase that included dozens of tornadoes around the Dodge City area in southwest Kansas. Also included my 300th career tornado.

Patience paid off in a big way as a series of picturesque tornadoes plopped down after multiple storm mergers southeast of Spearman, Texas.

Two tornadoes on a CRAZY beautiful supercell near Leoti, Kansas kicked off one of the most prolific tornado weeks in recent chase memory.

Incredible Colorado tornado intercepts, including yards from a large, dusty landspout followed up by an incredibly photogenic EF-2 north of the town of Wray.

A travel day from Illinois to Colorado that was to set up for the next day turned into an evening filled with incredible lightning.

A frustrating morning gave way to a rather easy chase as I intercepted a heavy hailer along US-287 outside Clarendon, Texas before celebrating my previous day's tornadoes with a steak in Wichita Falls!

Caught a couple close tornadoes on some slick, muddy roads in the Oklahoma Panhandle and got pummeled by big hail down in Dalhart, Texas.

Intercepted one of the biggest hailers of my career... and survived! Baseballs destroyed multiple vehicles at a gas station I hunkered down in as I documented the massive hail storm.
