@erikfox2000 I'll definitely help where I'm able to. Coming from past Fire and First Responder also in Texas Search and Rescue.

I hate coming off as a sour grape, I’ve always been a proponent of freedom to chase, but honestly we need to ask our selfs, are we at the breaking point as a group of people? I’ve always prided myself as a first responder first and foremost. The last 3 days has the mouse in my head turning the wheel, is it time to figure out a way for LEO/Fire to differentiate those of us who are experienced and here for good? Idk, I’ve been kicking some ideas around in my head, one of those is making an association of some sort. We have been working on the idea for a while (summit staff) it’s became a public safety hazard on some days, maybe we need to fix this from within before another legislative body attempts to takes it from us again.

Kansas here we come!

@LexiJoh744 Carnival Cruise!

@StormChaserChad Vacation! What’s on the agenda Chad?

Gonna be missing this next week's setup for a much needed family vacation! Good luck my fellow chasers but most importantly please be safe and always help where help is needed!

@WxFront @stormfrontfreak Interesting to see what comes next!

MODEL SOUNDINGS ANYTIME, ANYWHERE With multiple days of severe weather in the forecast, NOW is the time to start thinking about your chase targets (literal OR hypothetical). Long press anywhere in the model domain to INSTANTLY generate a forecast sounding. Pro tip: use alongside the Compare Models tool so you can seamlessly navigate between models & compare soundings! Available with an Advanced Subscription in the WeatherFront app.

@DanielShawAU Three days! On Saturday! Enjoy the next few days while it's still fresh!

Windscreen replacement completed and ready for the next storm. Let’s see how long this one lasts. Anyone want to guess how many days or weeks until it’s taken out?

@MaxVelocityWX @NWSTampaBay Now that's hands on chasing!

Wall cloud developing near Haines City, FL @NWSTampaBay (this is my photo)

@ChasingWConnor See you in Dixie!

On the contrary the NSSL WRF which performed very well today paints a boom scenario with several established supercells well south of this front by late afternoon!

@LexiJoh744 Absolutely!

@StormChaserChad What’s up Chad! Lexi the lightning whisperer. I have a picture I wanted to share with you if that’s cool.

I chase to chase. Don't care about drama or all the bs. I enjoy the open roads and spending time with those who want to spend it with me. No drama No BS just storms and helping the public. If you want to be apart of it fine if not won't hurt me either way.

@NickGormanWX Any day the wife allows me to chase is a good day for me!

January is the best month to storm chase

@WxZachary Honest opinion. What's your thoughts on chasing NW Arkansas? I've only chased close to Clarksville but never further.

Tuesday in Arkansas looks like a classic isolated severe weather day. Storms maturing in the evening hours, upper level winds oriented more westerly which should support isolated storms rather than a huge line. The low level jet is modest, but present, which should support at least a few rotating storms. Some people might dodge it all together, but if this signal holds, we’ll likely deal with at least a few severe storms!

@Saschaxz00 Nothing special bout this old fart!

@StormChaserChad How does one stop being a StormChaserChud and start being a StormChaserChad?

I'll be the first to admit I'm not a "known" or "popular" storm chaser but for any new or upcoming storm chaser needs any advice or help in the field I don't mind giving my time to help.

@BRStormChasers I've always wanted to come visit Canada. Let alone come and storm chase!

@StormChaserChad Cheers to that we also are happy to help as a newer Canadian crew slowly increasing our yearly US chases ✌️happy to say hello & chat if anyone runs into us on the road and if anyone comes up to Maple Alley this year we’d be happy to provide advice on our chase terrain

@chels_burnettWX I'm honestly at the point where I know I'm getting older so it's about time to slowly start passing the ropes off to the upcoming generation of storm chasers.

@StormChaserChad And that’s how it should be, so thank you! Less gatekeeping, more setting the standard.

Wouldn't be a Tornado Chase without a @LovesTravelStop pitstop! #LovesWX

@BrandonCopicWx @WxWiseApp You in Paris by chance?

New Windshield who dis @WxWiseApp

@VinceWaelti @stsweathereye Excited for what's to come!

Our @stsweathereye short-fused tornado predicting model is nearly ready for experimental release. This tool uses not only surface data, L2 radar, MRMS, HRRR and more, but our hyper-focused storm chaser and data probe network, AND our upper air soundings. This thing is really cool. Running some auditing on this and feel confident we can do an experimental launch and open it up for scrutiny. Tons of CPU power goes into this thing, so thank you supporters for keeping the lights on.

@BrandonCopicWx @ChasingWConnor What kind of radio do you use? Is a CB radio?

@ChasingWConnor Make sure to charge your dang radio Cheesecake

The days preceding a stretch like this upcoming Thursday-Monday+ go agonizingly slow. So much excitement, but also concern and anxiety for those in the risk zones. Should be nonstop chasing starting tomorrow. Hopefully things stay rural, and if they don't we are there to help get the word out and people are prepared.
