I'm not a storm chaser, but I think your video gives a good representation of all the time spent studying cloud formations, trying to find a good vantage point, etc. Maybe someday I'll book a place on a chasing expedition..., (I'm from New England..., we don't often get such dramatic skyscapes as you folks!)
This video is really popular (it's the title). I have others on actually intercepting a tornado (or several!) I did have a season or two of running a "expedition" a while back. Yes, part of the fun of a storm chase is figuring out roads, escape routes, avoiding chaser convergence and just the math of storm motion. All of this on top of using meteorology and simply watching the sky!
This happened when I was living in Lawton the first time and we had to go down into the locker rooms at my church and the goodyear plant took damage. I was 14 and it was scary
OK, I just looked at your channel description, which confirmed what I thought. I grew up in the Ozarks and remembered you from KOLR, channel 10 from my growing-up years back in the 70's and 80's.

That CG flash at 3:43 was definitely a positive strike. Anyone that got hit in the area of the CG strike there would have been immediately fried, electrocuted and killed!!!
7:40 mark - If I were an official chaser, I see that the wall cloud from L to R is trying to create possibly an enormous EF4 RWT (rain-wrapped tornado)......I am seeing evidence of developing funneling from L to R......
Those positive strikes are SERIOUS! They can pack 10 times the power that a normal negative flash can cause. And even in the distance you can TELL, they are some LOUD MOs :O ⛈🌩
I am trying to call myself "The Human Convective Calculator" seeing this video of this meso here. (Meso - is known as a mesocyclone - or a supercell - or a thunderstorm containing rotating updrafts.) Guessing the tops are up to probably 50,000 feet or so and the CAPE - assuming surface based - up to 4,000 or more j/kg. LI is up to -10, showalter to -8 to -9, and the K index is off the chart - up to 38-40. Lapse rates between 8 to 9 c/km.

It certainly looked scary! Glad you made in through.

Yes, same fella. How are you?
@@WeathermanTed Doing good. Grew up near Houston, MO, now living in West Plains.
FYI...it's pronounced Chicka-shay, not shaw.
Chica-shay, Chica-shaw, Chicken-little. We get the point. LOL
I was going to say the same, I used to live sorta near there, in Lawton.
@@jessicalee5260 Its pronounced Lawertorn
Yes, this pronunciation has dogged me for a while. It's an old video but I need to make a correction somehow.

and to think what would come a month later...
That was Tim Samaras' armored chasing vehicle?
hoping to go on a tour when i go to oaklahoma

in order to watch for me its has to be in 480p
I STILL wanna go on a storm tour (bucket list) someday... Do you allow video cameras? OOooooh you do :) Ok :D
I would allow video cameras, highly encouranged!
@@WeathermanTed AWESOME :D
How much do you charge for a storm chase tour
Great job!! ⛈⛈🌪🌪😎
Here’s the information about this independent Tornado Warning 8:18
what is the map behind gr2anaylist right in the beginning of the video

awesome video. great chase :D
6:13 kinda looks like a wall cloud🤔👀
As I recall, there wasn't much rotation evident on this tornado-warned storm but it did look very scary!

7:31 clouds to the right look like scud clouds
I believe you are right.
That looks like it is rain-rapped.

Chickosha like Kenosha.
My cup of Tea, take me with you....
It can be fun at times. I don't get to chase nearly as much as I'd like to. I might start up the tour again one day.
Am from Pakistan 🇵🇰 we don't ever see such moments.
It can get pretty crazy here sometimes! Thanks for viewing.

No thanks
