It's Possible

A weather enthusiast can get tired of snow. This video may illustrate why. I still had fun filming it, though, and I hope you enjoy.

Ahhhh!!!!

This is just a bit of an over reaction...

Please turn sound down.

Winter Storms

We've been getting hammered by winter storms recently. I've been very busy so sorry for the lack of updates here.

Right now we're still under a Winter Storm Warning. When I was out earlier, the snow was up to my ankles and there is still more on the way. Here is a map of the current traffic conditions:



There looks to be several accidents and slow-downs. While I've been filming, I have not driven out to get field shots during the worst of these storms. My car has proven to be a death trap on ice, and I want to still be able to chase thunderstorms this spring.

Here is video I shot of the last storm's progress:



We got 1 inch per hour snow fall rates with that storm. The video I shot on the first day was over the course of a couple of hours.

Huntsville Tornado

I just had to share this. This looked like a really menacing storm. I wish I was there.

Heavy Snow Part 2

More video from the heavy snow event on the morning of New Year's Eve. We almost didn't get to chase this event due to car troubles. Why I bought a car that doesn't like to start in the cold is beyond me. I'm looking in to fixing this issue for future chases as well as my safety. The roads were very slippery and hard to see. I took it really slow as I was a little nervous about getting in a wreck. Part three is coming soon!
