Meteorological spring has sprung down here in #Australia which means it's almost time to get back out there chasing down some whacky weather.

Big plans to cover a bunch of the country this spring/summer starting with a stint over in QLD & NSW commencing mid month 🌩

#StormHour

One of my favourite non-tornadic storms from this past US chase season.

I almost dropped off this guy an hour or so earlier after it looked fairly ordinary, but glad I stuck with it.

Texas Panhandle never disappoints.

Thing was a beast!

Incredible dust eating supercell out in west Texas today.

Absolutely gorgeous supercell structure to the west of Carlsbad, TX earlier

Saw some impressively structured supercells out on the Mississippi delta yesterday, but none better than this guy over by Winchester, AR. The thing was lofting some ridiculous lightning as we pulled up too, but alas I managed to miss most out of frame 🤦‍♂️

#arwx #StormHour

#Tornado near Sikeston, Missouri a couple days ago.

Onwards to todays shenanigans across Kansas....

Good luck to everyone and stay safe out there 🌪️

#wxtwitter #wxx #mowx #StormHour

Cloud to ground #lightning crashing into the eastern New Mexico landscape yesterday, this particular storm went on to leave behind some extreme hail accumulations near the town of Hope, NM

#nmwx #StormHour

Some west Texas #lightning from back in 2024.

Heading back over in a couple of weeks to find out what seaaon 2025 has in store.

Bring it on!

Only a few weeks left until we're on our way back to the United States for yet another severe #storm season. I'm not sure what to make of the seasonal outlooks, but I do know that you miss 100% of the storms you don't chase by staying home!

So, bring it on 🌪🌪🌪

#TornadoAlley2025 #StormHour #USwx

Been a little quiet in terms of #storms across the NW #TopEnd over the past week or so, though we did see a weakish shelf cloud tracking in over the #Darwin area late this afternoon.

A transition to westerly flow in the coming days may promote an increase in coastal storm activity 🌩️

#StormHour

Given a fairly loose CAP, we're seeing thunderstorms get up quite early today around #Darwin. This guy over near Shoal Bay was slinging a bunch of bolts around the joint at 11am!

#TopEnd #Australia #drone #weather #StormHour

Shelf clouds have definitely been a thing lately up here in the #TopEnd 🤷‍♂️

All of these shot with the #drone from the comfort of our front patio over the past week or so 😎

#Darwin #Australia #lazychasing #StormHour

After a few days of drier air keeping a lid on things across the #TopEnd, storms returned to #Darwin this afternoon.

A couple shots from the #drone, including a frame grab from the video of one of the many large clear-air #lightning bolts this storm produced ⚡️

I hear it's the first day of meteorological spring over there in the US, which means it's also time for us Aussie chasers to start thinking about making our annual pilgrimage to #TornadoAlley

Looking forward to getting back out there, see y'all real soon 🌪🌪🌪

It's from the drone. Shot from our house out at Knuckey Lagoon

With the setting sun illuminating the rain curtains, #Darwin city in the background looks dwarfed by this approaching storm earlier this evening.

Moving forward, some drier air moving into the #TopEnd will likely keep storm activity muted for a few days now 😎

#AUWX #Australia #StormHour

Though probably not as spectacular as the examples of the past few days, the run of afternoon shelf clouds tracking in over the #Darwin area continued this evening. Little meaningful precipitation from this guy but pretty none the less 🌩️

#TopEnd #Australia #weather #StormHour

Thank you 😊

Yet another very pretty late afternoon #thunderstorm rolling over the #Darwin area earlier, probably for the 3rd or 4th day in a row now.

These outflow-dominant storms are often a feature of the later stages of wet season here in the #TopEnd 🌩️

#Australia #auwx #ShelfCloud #StormHour

Another day, another guster rolling in over #Darwin. This particular example is being illuminated by vibrant sunset colour as it passes over Knuckey Lagoon.

#TopEnd #Australia #ShelfCloud #StormHour

Oh yeah I've done a ton of panos over the years, I'm just lazy lol

Thanks! Yeah, I shoot the collective images to stitch panos but never get around to it... I probably should at some point I suppose.

After another stinking hot day across the NW #TopEnd, the cooling outflow from these decaying inland #storms is always welcomed. In this particular instance, we saw an 8C drop in around 10 minutes.

#Lightning storms are also currently ongoing to the SW of #Darwin ⚡️

#StormHour

Nice work mate!

Stormy in #Darwin this evening ⚡
