This was a fun little trailer we put together for the late 2012 relaunch of our website. This was the relaunch that we built on for 7 years before building the new TornadoTitans.com that we debuted this fall. And this film? Still one of our faves we’ve produced.

Gene is a very pragmatic person with his design of his chase vehicle. Call it an old pilots instinct, but Gene has a pretty simple setup so he can focus on the storms in front of him. In the front is a regular ham radio, a laptop, and a dash cam for streaming of some…

Storm season was missing as of mid-April. We had just come off filming a destructive wildfire which can only happen during mid-April if the Southern Plains are in a drought situation. The drought was serious and the prospects for meaningful storm chases seemed slim.

This was a fun vlog to put together where Sanner talked the first storm chase chances of 2018 but also they talked about a very important tool: the HREF. The HREF is largely under-utilized by chasers in favor of the HRRR, but the HREF actually includes the HRRR and other high res models, giving you…

This video is part of our vlog series (and our 2018 relaunch). In this video Sanner plays a fun thought experiment and forces you to pick the three parameters you’d forecast with if you could only have three. However the rules are a bit trickier than they sound: 1)No obs whatsoever (aka no radar, satellite,…
