Thoughts spinning in the head of a meteorologist, cyclist, fly fisher, outdoor photographer, and storm aficionado living in Oklahoma.
Thanks, Arthur! One correction, I made this for the 1991 Tornado Symposium in Norman (Ted Fujita was in attendance). I also presented this highlights reel, with an original electronic music soundtrack composed by me. youtu.be/YBXHD8hE3OA These paved the way for the Storms of DVDs years later.
