Oh and uh; I’m not gonna let my positivity end here. So here’s the iceberg pinned back on my alt while I fix this mess…. Enjoy!

Who could forget? Brock TX:

@CoreyGerkenWX Unfortunately it’s very real.

I really hope this isn't for real. The suspension on that car will be destroyed by the added weight alone. A quick backyard fab job isn't going to keep you safe either. A 3/4-1 ton truck is the correct platform to use along with thick metal plates, proper design and flawless welds. With the trucks, you are able to beef up the suspension for the added weight and the engine (preferably diesel) will have the horse torque to move. This thing will be a death trap if they try to intercept the wrong tornado.

WHATEVER y’all do, do not go on I-20 right now in DFW. It’s not worth it, it’s just not.

@NickKrasz_Wx @OHWXisweird Yes!! You’re welcome that was meant positively

@NotChilledOut @OHWXisweird Thank you!! (I think??) I get that a lot lol, blue eyes.

Always in the parking lot

@ollieleinerwx @Dylanwx03 Because if it’s not even close to being done, it shouldn’t be this low quality build wise, and rusty. I’m not going to be easy on these people, they scammed someone I know of $7000, and have been stealing material from others.

@NotChilledOut @Dylanwx03 It’s not even close to being done, why nitpick it now?

Every masterpiece has its own cheap copy

@oldscarf1stweek Three more weeks from Tin Can 01

The Northeast chasers are 3 weeks away from building a tornado interceptor

@WXmarcus @Dylanwx03 That’s ARGUABLY WORSE.

@NotChilledOut @Dylanwx03 Allegedly you drive it with a controller

@Hayden2002WX @Dylanwx03 Yea they absolutely should have

@NotChilledOut @Dylanwx03 It’s because they didn’t let me weld

@T_Heard @baugh_elliot @oldscarf1stweek Car crash and I’m not kidding LOL (She was okay!!)

@baugh_elliot @oldscarf1stweek sounds like the door dash driver was arrested

So, the cops just came to deliver our DoorDash! 🚔

I wish I couldve let you Chace, I wish I was there, I wish I was stronger, I wish I was wiser, I wish I could’ve known. Every single day I think about the “could-haves” that would be: “would-haves”. You didn’t deserve it, you were so kind, so good hearted, intelligent…

I keep thinking, the person I am now would have prevented what happened a year ago. But I wasnt as confident, as experienced, or as understanding; and the guilt I feel for not being hurts my soul. I weep for someone I wish I couldve saved, I wish I couldve let them cry in my arms

@DFWStormChasing @anemicroyaltywx The world is full of such marvelous things, I spent today finding a little peace among them. I hope, truly, Chace sees those beautiful things too.

It hurts, but I wanna include a message for y'all before the night ends. When we lose somebody we get hit with sadness. Someone as young as Chace shouldn't die so soon. But unfortunately, we can't change the past. What's happened has happened, and we can't do a damn thing to alter it. What we all need to do is chase, not just in memory of Chace, but for him. We all must live the life that he couldn't. Make his dreams a reality. Those who we've lost wouldn't want us to sit around and wilt into sadness, nor would they want us to join them when there's still so much work to do on this earth. They'd want us to continue their dream, make their dreams a reality. Jaden Dyer, the OU3, Dakota McGee, and Chace are all watching us from above, watching and waiting for us to do what's right. See the beauty they never got a shot to see, get that data they didn't get a shot to shoot for, go explore the world and make them proud. Live the lives they couldn't. I love y'all. Make heaven's storm chasers proud. ❤️

(1/2) A stick was lofted by a tornado on April 27th 2011, and was coated by ice.

One year…my whole life stopped that day and has never truly felt the same since, we were weeks away from going on an absolutely epic adventure until tragedy struck and took it all away in the snap of a finger. There’s not a day that goes by where I don’t think about what he would have become and how much we all lost that day! Rest easy man! 🕊️

Our atmosphere is powerful, complex, and sometimes just straight up.... freaky. Open and closed cell stratocumulus oscillate as ships cut through them forming tracks in the clouds.

We gotta bring these back ITS #WEDGEWEDNESDAY POST YOUR BEST WEDGE PHOTOS (Or post your favorite wedge of all time) Photo 1: Morton, TX 6/5/25 Photo 2: Tolar, TX 4/19/25

@tknep3 @baugh_elliot My favorite lizard person can you elaborate on this SHOCKING truth?!

More on how the lizard people operate DIA at 5

@kerrydougherty It was a moderate risk, which is a 4/5 risk level for the SPC. The ceiling was high, particularly for the region of the US it was located in. By all means, it COULD HAVE had disastrous consequences; but a failure mode materialized. (Hence why it was a 4/5, not a 5/5!)

Here’s an idea, Matthew: Stop catastrophizing the weather. Every strong storm is not a “bomb” or a death cloud or a killer wind.
