Near Tennant, IA earlier. A career day! #iawx

@JakobWX Was there.

I was 11 years old when Pilger happened. Tomorrow, I turn 31. Time flies.

@StrmchsrHunterF Is it too soon for a chaser gear and merch truck?

I can't believe we are in the wxapp arms race.

@JessicaMooreWx Smart. I always think twice now after an incident in Wyoming. Awesome shot!

@DanTMelby And that’s about what it looked like the road was going to do and it looked a little muddy further down, so I didn’t chance it

Would you drive down this road?

Fantasy GFS throwing out a real banger 👀

@JakobWX @Becca_Furnish It’s been the 12 tornado year so far for me. Like every single one.

Tornado Types (2026 version)

@samdienst @WickyDubs2 Of course it’s HP…

@WickyDubs2 Wow June Fort Peck MT mega wedge confirmed thank you

Just saw this 👀

@ReedTimmerUSA @Bite_Fishing Catfish like beetle spinners surprisingly.

@Bite_Fishing YES and a cat fish on the beetle spinner

We have no choice but to declare this #bassnado an EF5! #Dominator #stormchasing

@DanielShawAU @Becca_Furnish From this Daniel to Daniel. Daniel salutes you.

Daniel likes replying to comments from time to time...

@AdamLucioWX I’ve been doing it all wrong. lol 140 tornadoes and 460 followers could be a record low. Got an open seat Adam? 🤣

It starts with vetting who you bring on board instead of just immediately accepting every piece of low hanging fruit who just wants to build their own career by saying IM WITH TEAM DOMINATOR in their bio, because they lack the skills to otherwise build a career on their own. Yea, I said it. I love what TDSR is doing, and it doesn't just happen to them. Lots of "top dawgs" in the community become a fast track stepping stone for some to try and fast track their careers. Opportunities should be awarded based on a long, positive standing body of work, and not simply willing to have someone get on their knees.

Happy Tescott day. On this day in 2018 Tescott happened. #kswx #otd

@JordanHallWX @Get_EMLd I’ve been saying that for about 10 years now. We’ve actually moved past that and are on to the age where it’s not actually about the storm anymore. It’s bout the person storm chasing and self promotion.

Today made it clear to me. There are storm chasers, and storm chaser chasers. If you have to rely on following another chaser all day. Hear me when I say this. STAY YOUR ASS AT HOME. #wxtwitter

On this day, April 26, 2024 was one for the ages. I documented at least 10 tornadoes between Lincoln, Ne to north of Harlan, IA. #otd #iawx #newx

@StrmchsrHunterF Since the traditional Oklahoma dryline has been pretty dead, its probably true.

That was arguably one of the most photogenic/strong tornadoes in Oklahoma, in the daytime, since Wynnewood, 2016

Severe thunderstorm near Logan, IA. #iawx

Windbag south of Monticello, IA #iawx

There’s no better chase terrain than the driftless. Believe me.

@tydeanwx Earth would burn without them.

why do cold fronts exist

@JakobWX Oklahoma

Trying anything to avoid chasing WI tomorrow

@StrmchsrHunterF Ok. I wasn’t sure. It’s probably close though.

@DanTMelby Gosh no

No.
