I have been chasing storms across Tornado Alley and the Mid-Atlantic since 1997. I also do nature and landscape photography.

I had a very enjoyable storm chase yesterday (5/23/26) with Chris Kridler and @AletheaKontis . We tracked a severe-warned line of storms from west of Dumas back to Amarillo, Texas. A haboob developed with large of amounts dust towering into the sky.

A Personal Tribute from Jeff & Kathryn Piotrowski – 15 Years After the Joplin EF-5. There are very few days in a lifetime that reveal the true character of a place and its people. May 22, 2011, was that day for Joplin. We were there that Sunday afternoon as the violent EF-5 tornado tore through the city. What we witnessed in the minutes and hours that followed remains one of the most devastating scenes we have ever seen in over 40 years of storm chasing. The tornado erased entire neighborhoods in minutes. What had been a beautiful, thriving community—families gathered for Sunday dinner, students celebrating graduation weekend, children playing under the trees—vanished under a roar that defies description. In its wake lay unspeakable destruction and heartbreaking loss. In the immediate aftermath, like so many others that day, we simply went to work — digging through rubble, searching for survivors, and helping however we could. We will never forget the voices calling out from the debris, the courage of neighbors helping neighbors, and the quiet dignity of those who kept searching even as they grieved their own losses. We remember Amber Munson and the many other survivors whose lives were forever altered in an instant. We made such lasting relationships with so many people of the Joplin community. Linda Lindquist Baldwin, Kandi Peterson, Carole Liston, Myra Koeneke, Dave Turner, Judy Owens-Lowe, Eddie and many others. We also will forever honor and remember those whose lives our paths crossed who are no longer with us, Georgia “Nadine” Mulkey, Ray Donald “Tripp” Miller, Mark Farmer, Rick Fox and finally a hero among heroes Mark Lindquist. God Bless them all. We remember the final moments shared with those who did not make it, and the sacred weight of bearing witness to such profound loss. Most of all, we remember the 161 lives taken that day. And we remember the spirit of Joplin — a city that refused to be defined by tragedy. Fifteen years later, Joplin stands as a powerful example of what a community can become when it chooses to rebuild with strength, unity, and hope. Neighbors became family. Strangers became heroes. A city that was nearly erased chose instead to rise stronger. Joplin on this 15th anniversary, we honor your loss. We honor your resilience. We honor the love and courage that still define you. Stronger. Together. Always. God Bless You, Joplin. #Joplin

Sometimes magic happens on the slight and marginal risk days. I was not expecting much today but a series of rather photogenic storm cells formed NW of Lubbock Texas, USA today (23 May, 2026). As two of the outflow boundaries collided double landspout tornadoes were captured in the evening. The sunset was also rather magnificent as the storms moved SE.

A pretty landspout, yesterday 5/22/26, northwest of Abernathy, Texas. We also saw numerous gustnadoes and the dusty tornado. Chasing that day with Chris Kridler, Alethea Kontis Author and John Beven. This was an exciting chase day where there was initially low expectations.
