I *cannot* believe this was real. These colors were real. I've never seen such a deep blue Aurora before. I've seen blue Aurora, but my goodness this was something else. What a beautiful night. Oh, and yes, the snow is purple from the Aurora light reflection, I kid you not. Central Colorado last night/early this morning. #cowx #aurora

@erikfox2000 @chaser_summit Sooo, what I am hearing is, Andrew Pritchard for chaser of the year.

I’ve been asked a few times this year about the chaser of the year for the 2027 @chaser_summit. I announced this in Denver, but we have retired the Chaser of the Year award and the Rookie of the year award do to the negativity it brought, and at times the threats! The Vortex awards will continue via Tim… and a special guest!

@wxkylegillett @a_dose_of_wx Careful, some will get too excited

@StrmchsrHunterF @a_dose_of_wx our true prince

What does everyone consider the "most recognizable" tornado of all time to be? The tornado you can identify immediately from just one photo? For me its Briggs bc @a_dose_of_wx won't stop posting it.

Earlier this evening between tornadoes. Just north of Lipton at 2115. #skstorm

@ENewboldWx Oh noooooo

@StrmchsrHunterF I was on my way there today! 😭 Then the rental decided to start throwing up engine lights

Felt great to be back up at 14,000+ft ASL. Mount Blue Sky with the family!

A really easy way is to look back at some previous super El Nino years and see how precipitation fell and tornado reports. Some of those years include 1963-64, 1982-83, 1986-87, 1997-98, 2009-10, and 2015-16. Looking through the years, generally the southern plains experiences mostly above average precip with average precip in Dixie. Looking through tornado reports in the previous years, we generally saw tornado reports in the eastern Southern plains, ArkLaTex into Dixie/Southeast. So I would expect a similar trend with a active sub-tropical jet.

Question for the big brain WX guys. With the upcoming significant to historic El Niño expected to be entrenched by the fall and winter, how does this correlate with “second season” tornadoes/tornado outbreaks? @ConvChronicles @CameronJNixon @StrmchsrHunterF @MatthewCappucci

360 orbital intercept of the Effingham, Illinois EF3 tornado on June 17, 2026

@TealNoodles It's likely because DSM has a slightly higher avg temp due to the city affecting temps.

@StrmchsrHunterF I love how Des Moines sucks specifically 😂

This tracks a lot with my preferences, and conveniently lines up with nearly everywhere I have lived!

@a_guidarelli My skin feels just fine out West. It's just self-care!

@StrmchsrHunterF that’s why my skin is so good tho I’ve lived my entire life in the clouds of PA/OH/WV

@a_guidarelli And all of Ohio :)

@StrmchsrHunterF Hahahaha you’d hate Pittsburgh
