The close of the 2019 monsoon season for me was an eventful one. Two of my best lightning days happened towards the end of the year which I think can be attributed to growing comfort and experience with the monsoon chasing experience. It is funny that, after nearly 20 years of chasing, the monsoon season…

Chasing with friends always makes chase days better. As Titan Eugene Thieszen arrived in the southwest for his shot at some monsoon chasing, it was my hope that the atmosphere would cooperate and provide us with some beautiful scenes. Thankfully, it did just that with Gene in the area! This summer was a giant learning…

The first few weeks of the 2019 monsoon were just a primer for the heart of the season. As my first season of living in the Southwest US continued, I was taking a lot of hard lessons to heart. It seemed that as I learned, the misses on epic lightning continued to mount. When it…

The monsoon season in the Southwest US is one of our favorite patterns to chase. Its way more relaxed than supercells on the plains but oftentimes just as breathtaking and awe-inspiring. Did we mention the photography is amazing? These storms are of a different breed. They’re born from moisture residing over a hot desert surface….

A series of strong tornadoes occurred near/southwest of Jay Em, Wyoming, very rare for mid September! Large hail up to at least baseball size was also reported.

A supercell formed near Denver and moved toward Fort Morgan, CO. Copious amounts of hail fell along I76 and traffic slowed down. Later, a supercell formed near Limon, moving north and produced a tornado near Yuma, which is the first clip here. This storm eventually produced significant hail as it moved into Nebraska.

Thunderstorms formed all around Lubbock, TX and produced very heavy rainfall and sat over the same area. This resulted in flash flooding all across the area. This video captures the flooding and a jackknifed semi and a vehicle that hydroplaned into the median.

A supercell formed southwest of Lubbock, TX and moved Southeast along a boundary. What started as a small dusty tornado, quickly became a strong tornado, though remained shrouded in dust for much of its life. The timelapse at the end of the video shows the initial formation of the tornado. Also, after the tornadoes, we…

A tornado formed from a supercell just south of the Oklahoma/Texas border and slowly drifted north. It took on multiple shapes and occasionally had multiple vortices. Unfortunately due to no river crossings, I was a bit further from the tornado than I wanted to be, but I braved some hail as seen in the video…

I chased this supercell from near Memphis, TX into southwestern Oklahoma. It was a magnificent beast once it got spinning and really had great structure. Hail of 2″+ was reported. There was only one point it got anywhere close to producing a tornado, but regardless, the structure was superb! Roof Camera – GoPro Hero 7…
