@JustonStrmRider and I were mesmerized by this incredible supercell structure as the Enderlin, North Dakota EF5 tornado was occurring! This was the first official NWS-assigned EF5 tornado rating since the infamous Moore, Oklahoma Tornado on May 20, 2013. #ndwx

An erupting volcano. A black spatter cone with a gap in the front has lava fountaining out, hundreds of feet into the air, smacking against the cone, and flowing along a snaking lava river toward the camera. A plume of gas rises into the air with mostly cloudy sky in the background.

Just found this image of the 2021 Fagradalsfjall eruption in Iceland that I've never shared before. Being in the presence of this volcano and feeling the intense heat of the Earth on my skin was genuinely the best experience of my life and its not even close. #photography

That one didnt even hit a train sadly
(Tho was absolutely violent af)

"Wait what"
-the entire wx verse after the Enderlin news

Excited to announce that my method for estimating wind speeds based on lofted debris in tornadoes was used as contextual evidence for upgrading the Enderlin, ND tornado to an EF5!

a few chasers did, and yes it definitely had some rotation to it.
However, given its extreme rural nature and the fact it was on a mountain, we couldn't determine any debris signature or anything.

I am...about 70-80% sure I saw a tornado from my house in Las Vegas on Friday night.

Supercell north of town put on a spectacular lightning show, and a stovepipe-shaped cloud formed under it. Either the most convincing scud ever or I caught a truly rare desert twister.

This could be you! Be like Alex and get yourself a selfie in front of a supercell!

I painted the eye of Hurricane Erin, based on video taken from Hurricane Hunter aircraft during it's Category 5 peak.

Storms of 2025 - Jeff Frame I only lead one field course in 2025, in June. We observed the Wellfleet, Nebraska, tornado on June 16, which is a top 3 chase for me and the best tornado/structure combo of my career. We saw many oth...

GET OFF THE GOD DAMN BEACH

I'm happy with what I saw in Texas this year but seriously lmfao it's just been nonstop world-class tornadoes for the past 2 months up there

WELP guess my chasing plans are in South Dakota next year lmfaoo

Such a wild night. We mustve been there for almost 2 hours! Sure glad we decided to turn around and take a look.

We get lightning like that fairly often here, due to the unique weather conditions that the storms here have.

When hail shafts merged and just about fooled us into thinking we were seeing a massive tornado lit by rainbow lightning⚡️

Monsoon storms are the best when I don't have to go anywhere.
these are from my backyard!

This is my first blue hour / Milky Way composite. I set up the tripod at the scene I wanted, took one exposure for the landscape after sunset at about 8pm, and then another for the sky at about 10pm. I blended the two images in Photoshop, and darkened the landscape to feel more nightish. 1/2

Smooth channel

Stacked a good 20-30 frames from one of the videos of this wild storm.

I said "every color of the rainbow", didnt I!

Thar she blows!

Monsoon Sunsets with a handful of CGs are extremely hard to beat. And this one wasn't even that good compared to others!

From July 2nd this year.

hiked up a hill to watch the fireworks over Las Vegas last night, and the view was spectacular!

Ok bro lemme find someone who asked

Here is the first still shot I've taken since Mound City, SD in August 2024. I thought it was the perfect opportunity to pull the Fuji out early in the tornado lifecycle of the Tornado of the Millenium in Nebraska a few weeks ago.
