STORM2K

Besides my regular storm chasing this summer I've gotten what I think is the chance of a lifetime. I was offered to join Tim Samaras during the month of June to storm chase throughout the plains in help with the tornado research that he is doing. I've done an interview at a local station about the chance and have posted the transcript/audio of the interview. You can learn more about the chance there, as well as all the plans for the month:

Storm Chasing w/ Samaras

Wow, congrats!

Congratulations!

Congrats! You will great time. They way the Spring storm season is going you will have many oppurtunities to severe weather and tornadoes first-hand.

Thanks guys... Almost wish I was in the May crew the way things are going now... Hopefully June will stay active.

Congrats...you lucky bastage...we want pics!!!

Well if you want pics, be sure to bookmark my blog for the month of June. I'll be putting updates on there as often as possible, likely as we are driving in the morning hours to our next target.

I've always wanted to tag along with some of these guys and learn the ropes. Expect some jealousy from this direction.

The month of June has arrived and already looking like midweek next week for deployment... Beings I'm a part of the crew finally, I posted some general information on the project in my latest blog post: http://iowachaser.blogspot.com/2007/05/ ... -2007.html

I'll be putting daily updates on the blog with either the project forecast or some results from our previous days chase. Hope you guys bookmark the page and enjoy the reading as I am hoping to share this opportunity!

You might get a nice opportunity June 6-12, if the model progs are right.
