How often do you get tornadoes without hail or straight-line wind reports? Turns out, quite frequently. "All hazards" only occur near tornadoes about 45% of the time. "Tornado only" risk is most common in the Southeast and Midwest, and "Tor+hail" most common in the High Plains.

HISTORIC PATTERN FOR TORNADOES POSSIBLE second half of May Live emergency update on a multi-day #tornado outbreak threat across the central U.S. from Oklahoma to Wisconsin starting this weekend! This tornado outbreak sequence will peak on Sunday-Monday across Kansas and Oklahoma east of a dry line. A massive trough-ridge pattern is forecast to evolve across North America, which will set the stage for volatile warm sectors with #tornado potential day-after-day. We are gearing up the Dominator 3 for full-blown #tornado intercept mode. Stay tuned!

SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAKS possible Sunday/Monday, May 17-18! The Storm Prediction Center is using the word "outbreak" to describe anticipated severe weather on Sunday and Monday. Rotating supercells are possible both days, particularly in Nebraska, Kansas and Iowa. Large, destructive hail to baseball size, damaging winds and tornadoes, some EF2+, are expected. Omaha, Lincoln, Grand Island, Kearney, Sioux Falls, Brookings, Sioux City, Harlan, Salina, Hays, Topeka and parts of I-70 and I-80 – y'all are in the core of the Storm Prediction Center's risk areas. Review your severe weather plan and know what to do if warnings are issued. An elongated strip of low pressure will form along a cold front pushing slowly east across the central and northern Plains. Southerly winds ahead of the low will pull warm, humid air northwards, adding moderate to strong instability, or thunderstorm fuel, across the region. The atmosphere will be primed. We'll have a very large "warm sector," or zone of juiced-up air, meaning a geographically expansive risk area. Meanwhile, rotating supercells will form each afternoon along the cold front/dryline. Coverage will be greatest in central/northern regions beneath an approaching upper-air disturbance. That upper-air disturbance is effectively lifting the air, generating storms. Copious jet stream wind energy aloft, meanwhile, will help storms to rotate. Storms that grow tall will "feel" changing winds with height and spin, yielding a tornado risk. Very large hail will accompany the strongest storms. During the evenings, especially on Monday evening, thunderstorms may merge into one or more windy lines/clusters. Any squall lines would have a lesser tornado risk, but a greater straight-line gust risk. The risk areas come to us from our friend Broyles at SPC. He's one of the nation's preeminent severe weather/tornado forecasters, and specializes in sniffing out regional higher-end events several days in advance. In fact, he spends much of the year developing research tools to allow him to better predict episodes like this. If you live in either area, you should pay close attention ahead of what will likely be an impactful setup.

Shelf clouds are always one of the coolest captures a storm chaser can capture when it comes to sub-severe weather. Our very own Storm Chaser Drew Brummel caught these images from tonight’s line of storms as they rolled into west Michigan here on May 12th, 2026. 📸 - Drew Brummel - Ravenna, MI @DrewBrummelWX #miwx

I get the frustration, but I wish as a community we would teach chasers what would be the best method of distribution I’ve been exploring options but being inexperienced it’s hard to make these connections, and I haven’t had a lot of help figuring this stuff out from others
Jordan Hall@JordanHallWX

If you’re a storm chaser and allow distribution of your content and give your content to Storyful/viralhog. You are the reason networks and stock video companies don’t take us seriously. Makes you no different than someone on their back porch with a cellphone video. Not to mention the amount of undercutting you are doing to the video market on top of your own bank account.

All the brokers I listed will distribute all related weather events, from severe, winter wx, flooding, hurricanes, wild fires, dust storms, etc. At a very basic level, if it’s a news worthy story, they will push it. Most brokers do operate to distribute to national organizations. In my experience, local stations typically don’t have a large enough budget to license high-quality video of national news events from chasers. There are exceptions depending on what region/city may be impacted. This, however, is a good question to ask the brokers if you choose to reach out to them. I only speak from my experiences and cannot speak for them truly.

A lot of the time, it’s actually as easy as reaching out via DM to a broker. @Tornadair for LSM, @JordanHallWX , @koryhartman for SevereStudios, @WxPaparazzi for SCV. Working with a dedicated broker in the specific field is the easiest method for distribution without having to worry about constantly replying to emails while out. You would be paying them, via cut, to do the heavy lifting after shooting video, for you. Large content aggregator brokerages such as Storyful undercut the market and provide pennies on the dollar for one’s footage. Alternatively, working the networks privately can also be lucrative, yet very time consuming for breaking news events. This can sometimes result in missing more opportunities that occur while you’re on the phone or responding to an email.

@DrewBrummelWX This also isn't saying post everything to Facebook or X and hope for the best but find YOUR platform where you want to grow. Ex: youtube and then funnel each platform to your OG source to create a place for people to consistently look for you. The pickups will come along the way
