INCREDIBLE footage from earlier this evening from the 43 Fire just southwest of Woodward, Oklahoma!

Absolutely INSANE firewhirls in the main fire line as it very quickly advanced northeast towards Woodward!

An Oklahoman Winter Wonderland.

Even though the total snowfall accumulation somewhat underperformed due to some dry air (and extremely cold temperatures), it still provided for some beautiful scenes in Oklahoma City and surrounding areas!

What I witnessed in southern Kansas on the 11th still doesn’t even feel real.

I’ve dreamed of seeing something like this, to take photos like this. But never could I have imagined I would do it in southern Kansas of all places. Extremely unbelievable.

What I witnessed today doesn't even feel real, and the fact I got to spend it with some amazing people makes it that much better.

What an incredible show, never thought I'd see the northern lights like this in southern Kansas.

Quite rare to see this! A special marine warning has been issued on LAKE MICHIGAN for the potential of waterspouts within the snow bands on the south side of the lake!

Alongside 6+ inches of snow falling in areas on the south side of Lake Michigan, it appears that there might even be waterspouts on-going in the snowbands on the SW side of Lake Michigan!

Since today is halloween.

What're the spookiest storms you've seen or chased?

Personally, mine is this large nighttime supercell that occurded near Hollister, Oklahoma that produced around 4 different tornadoes, including a wedge tornado that was over a mile wide.

Made some upgrades for my Sony A7IV during prime day this week which includes a SmallRi camera cage, 2 side handles and a top handle!

Can’t wait for severe weather to come back!

Saddened by the loss of lives and property as a series of tornadoes impacted North Dakota last night. I and a number of storm chasers assisted with timely reporting so warnings could be issued and upgraded. @NWSBismarck #ndwx

A time-height cross section shows wind speed data from the CLAMPS 2 Doppler lidar from 00 to just before 04 UTC. The formation of the low level jet is apparent.

CLAMPS2 lidar (at the NWC) winds show the low level jet picking up since 00UTC. As the outflow moves south toward Norman it’s neat to see convection initiation invigorate where presumably the LLJ is impinging on the outflow.

Watch CLAMPS data yourself: apps.nssl.noaa.gov/CLAMPS/data/...

Dug out this extremely rain wrapped #tornado around 4:30 PM south of Harper, Kansas this evening.

Quite hard to see, but you can see the funnel coming down on the top left part of the image shortly before becoming a fully condensed cone tornado to our south.
