I've collected my favorite photos in two galleries, one for tornadoes and the other for storm structure and related weather images. It was a fun way to spend part of the weekend, and reminded me why I'm glad to finally be shooting pictures with some decent photography gear. For better or worse, here's the galleries:


Tornadoes



Storm Structure and other

Roosevelt, OK HP on March 2, 2008.

Out of curiosity I scanned my chase reports to see what I'd seen on or before March 8th, going back to 1996. Only two chases worth mentioning: the tornado Kevin Peterson and I found on February 10 last year, a real anomaly, and the Roosevelt, Oklahoma storm on March 2, 2008. This is the only photogenic convection I can recall from the period I still consider the "pre-season." One big caveat is that I lived in Indiana from 2002-2005, and chasing early season plains setups was impossible because of school obligations and distance. I tried an early outing or two in Illinois with little success.

Which doesn't mean I won't go tomorrow. :-)
