Disclaimer:
Storm chasing is dangerous. You could be hurt or killed in its pursuit, especially
if you have little or no knowledge of severe storms and their environment.
Chase hazards include but are not limited to heavy rain, flash flooding, lightning,
high winds, large hail, tornadoes, and flying debris. Hydroplaning on the
road and traffic accidents also occur. If you desire to chase, get informed
and educated about weather. Contact your local National Weather Service Office,
and enroll in a SKYWARN training class. Read and view all of the published
information regarding severe weather, thunderstorms, and tornadoes that you
can. You are responsible for educating yourself. Next, contact an experienced
chaser in your area, and arrange to travel with them, until you've gained
sufficient experience to go it alone. Even at that, veteran chasers get caught
in harm's way from time to time. Play it safe. This page is for informational
and educational use, and the authors disavow any responsibility for actions
you may take.
