3nd Chase of 2017...

Most of you know that follow me on Flickr & Social Media... that I love good opportunities to capture lightning. It was one of the reasons why I took up storm photography 20+ years ago. I didn't have many opportunities in 2016 to capture lightning...

This year it started off with a Bang. I couldn't have asked for a better situation. Disappointed of that afternoons chase... I was redeemed by the storms ample cloud to cloud and cloud to ground lightning strikes. An epic night of storm photography!

Early to mid July on the plains of Nebraska.

Strong storm cells producing some Tornadoes by Gothenburg & Cozad Nebraska. (West of my location) would eventually move into south central Nebraska.

I wasn't able to chase till it got closer due to I had to work that afternoon. Once free from my work responsibilities.... I did eventually get out to get the shots but the cell was already dying as it entered northern Phelps County Nebraska.

Some where between Funk and Holdrege Nebraska I stopped and got into position to get these snaps before this cell died away. Sometimes the end of the storm is just as good as the storm going in full rage. This was one of those photographic opportunities I didn't miss.

Early September 2023...

Gear Packed & Primed! Drove west from Kearney out to Lexington Nebraska area. Once the warnings started to fire out in West Central Nebraska. It was time to do my thing. It was to see one of the last supercells of the summer of 2023 & I wasn't gonna miss out. This truly had incredible, beautiful structure. Was tornado warned & had all the right elements for what I do.

No I didn't see a Tor-nader that day. I got a few snaps of what I think was a wall cloud to the cell northwest of my location.

I was there for the structure & I got those incredible snaps... It is what I came for!

Evening storm cells were in full force. We had some warnings for Furnas and Frontier counties as the storms were building. I was approaching from the north via Hwy 283. Once in position, I had to wait a bit before the action began.

Though having patience is part of the game. I was right on the money for this set of storms cells brewing to my west.

Wasn't looking forward to the 3 hour drive back home. What was left of the storm was a HP mess. I sat back for about 30 minutes and let the rain push east. After I got my bearings, I was headed east.

Sun was setting. I was under the perfect light conditions. Back side of the storm, via Hwy 6/34. I couldn't have asked a better photographic opportunity.

A few kewl cloudscapes presented itself as I was getting my bearings on what cells to follow since nothing was severe.

Storm cells were redeveloping to my southwest but I only had a few hours till I had to work. I would eventually head east then back to Hwy 136 west...

A few final surreal shots from that evening's drive back home. There is no place like Nebraska!

Aggressive late May supercell developing out in the northern plains of Kansas. Now this was creap'n about 30 mph to the east south east as I caught up to from the north via Hwy 24. Just to the north of Osborne Kansas.

Beautiful definition of this storm. Structure was what I was after that day. Oh, did I get some... and then some!

We were to have storm cells develop on this day, and they were predicted not to be severe. They were not... Though when the perfect opportunity for light & shadow comes into view, I couldn't resist.

I grabbed my gear and set out to capture some of the beautiful landscape/cloudscapes from May 2015. The storm cells were developing through south central Nebraska were weak but highly photogenic.

We had to pack up and move south via Hwy 283 South then Head due east of Hwy 89. This route takes us though Beaver City, Orleans, and eventually just north of Alma Nebraska.

Now just north of Alma Nebraska...

We didn't allow us much time to find a suitable spot for us to the base of the storm. A few things to note here.

When we chase, SAFETY is the number 1 thing that I stress to the individuals that chase with me. I have to practice what I preach.

We have to find a safe spot to pull off and get the pics, vids. Once we make this choice to pull off when always include a EXIT plan before we stop. (Chasing for all these years, I've learned a very valuable lesson. Never stop unless you have an open an safe exit area when chasing severe weather

We had limited time when we stopped. Storm was approaching fast from the southwest. Where we stopped I wasn't considering how high the corn here in Nebraska in late August. We didn't get a choice to move. It was now or never. So we stopped & set up fast and got with I could with 4k @ ground level.

It was our best structure of severe weather 2021. Defined Meso... Eye Candy Structure.... What more could we ask for!

Primetime....

For the best possible chances of a night tornado or maybe 2.

Seriously, this is not for the faint of heart. Night chasing severe weather scenarios are dangerous enough as they are. Put the element of 100+ winds, horizontal rain, and that ever so risk of having a tornado next to you and you don't know it... and all that other stuff you have to be aware of.

Keep in mind I'm all about safety when it comes to night chasing but there is always that risk you take when you do. You can predict what is going to happen... but its not the same when your in the thick of it. This night chase was extremely dangerous since we were by 3 tornadoes in less than 2 hours time. Though we survived and came out crystal clean. That is to be expected when I chase every time.

Though my camera's were all pointing due south and west on the storms that were approaching. I managed to get a few snaps due east of us. A nuclear explosion of energy. Constant Cloud to Cloud lightning. Sky had cleared enough before the next storm to get these incredible shots...

Stopped for just a few minutes to get my bearings on this storm. She was in reorganizing and rebuilding as it was almost moving due north now.

Some nice new structure was developing, and I was in the perfect place to watch it develop... oh yeah, and to take a few snaps....

Oh Yeah... Lightning Storm that evening... It came in late, and I had gear packed and ready in case a storm started to brew. Only a 30% chance but that means its gonna storm in Nebraska.

NWS had just issued a severe thunderstorm warning for Phelps & Kearney Nebraska Counties and it was moving right in my direction. I had time to get into position and wait for the show to begin! I ALWAYS have front row tickets to this type of show!

It was a dry May for most of it. So it was a few weeks of no storms in south central Nebraska. Finally we had a moderate risk but it was for Wyoming & Colorado. Then it was to move due east into western Nebraska. Planned ahead headed west for the event. A moderate risk day with PDS warnings on the supercells that we were chasing that afternoon.

We knew where we wanted to chase and had planned it out perfectly. From Kearney to Scottsbluff NE. From Scottsbluff to Torrington Wy, and then Hwy 85 South. We ended up parked right under a 4g cell tower, close to the Hwy 85 & junction 216 with time to spare. Perfect position, perfect light, and we had perfect cell signal to stream this event live.

Now the official report says this is an E-F0 Tornado. It only lasted about 4 4 1/2 minuets. Approximate path length was 2.8 miles, and max width was 80 yards. It was the first of the day to touchdown in Wyoming.

***

Proud to say that this was my first time that my video stream was on the Weather Channel via StormViewLive (the media broker & was with in 2017) These were the photos that coincided with that day...

(This video is NOT my video but via youtube user "The Weather Nutz" of this same storm but from the opposite view of mine... excellent video youtu.be/7dP6PI1zV5Q)

Finally out in front of this storm again. We had a long drive south just to get in Northern Buffalo County in South Central Nebraska.

Cloud to cloud lightning was firing off every few seconds. This storm meant business, and was growing into a monster.

We parked a few miles outside of town and waited for this to creep ever so closer.

Another day of severe weather was brewing in South Central Nebraska. NWS has just put out warning right after 3pm. I was ready, had everything packed and ready to go storm chasing.

Towers were building to my north but I had once cell picked out that I knew it was going to produce.

I was on track for another awesome Nebraska stormscape experience!

I had several chances at storms over the month of July into Early August... I did make an several attempts... resulting in several good sunsets (I'll post these at a later time), just no good storms to capture ... until this one.

This would be the start to several sets of images expanding from Mid August to late September and a few chases in October.

10:00pm, and the rain was coming down in sheets. Radar had several cells starting to mature, and warnings were just issued for Northern Buffalo County. Can you say right place right time...

Final Shots of this Night Chase... Got all the way to the south side of the city of Kearney. This storm cell was moving rather fast... As this storm matured, tons of cg lightning was firing. Just a strikes to end this night!

Seen on National News Click Here, and Its also the StormViewLive's FB page www.facebook.com/stormviewlive/ Image of the Month of Sept & October. What an honor! I've had a ton of request for this image and so here it is at last...

It was honestly a mistake. I was messing around with a Filter I created (by accident) and the first time I ran this through, this was the effect I got. I personally luv this image... I hope you do also.

Almost late June 2020, and the severe weather season has been just down right horrible for anything of photographic value this year. I mean this when I say Chase Locally. Due to Health issues, Truck maintenance issues, Equipment Issues, Camera Issues... With all that has been going on in my life, I've had to pick my chasing days and nights carefully this year. To be 100% Honest... I'm just happy I get to chase! Never let bad things set you back when the opportunity presents itself. That's my motto!

Luckily I had all my gear ready to go when when had strong severe thunderstorms develop in north central Nebraska and they were cresting southward down to south central Nebraska. My home turf.

This time of year is when everything changes weather wise here in south central Nebraska. Monsoons down in the southwest part of the US are firing and that usually means for us no storms. Not in 2020. Even though we had a late start to severe weather season here... mother nature hasn't let me down so far. She has remained active in my neck of the woods.

All the storms this day were outflow boundary generated storms. Meaning no tornadoes this day. Though I did capture 1 funnel, you'll see this in the video. Though with outflow dominate storms shelf clouds form and they can be more than picturesque. Its what I was hunting for this day! Oh did I get some and then some!

After a phenomenal day of watching the Supercell Thunderheads bubble and boil... I wasn't finished.

Small cells were still forming to my north just off of the city limits of Kearney. This one didn't last long but it sure was capturing my interest. Camera gear ready, I head out once again for a few brief shots. Full moon and some incredible ambient light helped out these shot with exposure.

This storm had significantly developed south of my location and NWS also just reissued severe thunderstorm warnings on these cells

3rd and final storm of my chase that day. Some nice gems in this set of captures! Enjoy!

Back in the Saddle that evening! Had and hour before sunset and we were on the hunt... for severe weather!

She wouldn't disappoint us that evening! Supercell development with a defined hook on radar. Beautiful structure on to areas of rotation! Total Storm Chasing Eye Candy!

After the tornadoes in south central Nebraska that afternoon. Storms were still percolating and still severe enough to produce what I'm looking for... That wouldn't happen again that day... Oh the structure on those severe storms were truly photogenic. Some of the best Nebraska outflow boundaries of 2018 were in my viewfinder that day.

Though sick as a dog, I proceeded east and stayed ahead of these cells in case they produced again. These storm cells wouldn't give me any more Naders that afternoon, but it sure was fun to follow these remaining storm cells.

We had a moderate risk day for this area though the storms would stay high based and nothing but some good structure to photograph for this day.

At this moment I was heading north out of Miller Nebraska as I was heading to the Ansley & Broken Bow areas via Hwy 183...

My passion for Lightning never ends. It truly is the soul reason why I grab my gear & head out when others take shelter.

In my Opinion... this set of images is / has to list as one by best set of Lighting Captures EVER. That's saying a lot. Especially if you follow what I do.

Gems of Gems!!

I have been nursing a bad back injury that occurred years ago. Once you aggravate it is takes months of physical therapy and exercise to either go away or for it to go back to normal. The last few months of 2021 were painful. Its is the reason why you didn't get much photography from me in the end of 2021... With that being said.

I usually don't go quite with my photography during the off storm season. I'm a sucker for good light. Sunsets & Sunrises... when the light is right. Only reason I was out. Was to get my daughter back to College. Had dropped her off for and was heading back home.

I'm always with camera in hand in case of that special sky moment... I think this was one of them!

Late evening and storms were coming up due south out of North Central Kansas that evening. Not much development until it developed just south of Kearney Nebraska.

Some intense CG's with lots of crystal clear lightning! Continues Forked and Electrified Cloud to Ground lightning Strikes... It was an impressive night for storm photography!

Solo Chase Day & Close to Home....

Luv it when the chases are in my backyard. Not having to drive 3 states and 1200 miles in 1 day is relief. I know I'm not the only chaser that says that. This was a phenomenal afternoon of severe weather. When I say this... It means that its photogenic & for the most part not effecting the farms, agriculture, livestock & the human element.

Mammatus before the storm, then I decided to bail on this first storm for the next which was to the north about 25 miles. This storm had wicked good rotation under the base. Even though it was high based it was producing some freakin awesome views.

The storm had overtaken my position and I had a 40 min drive to get back in front of this storm. It was on my tail the whole way back to the I-80 corridor. Though a little late I was still able to get back in front of shelf cloud. The teeth on the outflow were almost scraping the ground. It gave the effect of a funnel but it was not. Been doing this to long to make sure I know the difference.

That was a hoot. Though I waited til the last minute. I got swallowed by the core & had to wait it out. Want to see what its like out in the open with no shelter... This I have also done a billion times. 50mph winds rocked my truck! That was fun!

Finally, I blazed it backed to Kearney for this Storms Finale... Beautiful Sunset light illuminates the exiting storm with a Anvil Rain & Mammatus Cluster ... It was truly a Sight to See!!!!

Late May ... 2024

A vibrant, dramatic sunset illuminates a vast field, with dark, stormy clouds creating a striking contrast against the intense orange and red hues of the sky. The horizon features a blend of cultivated land and distant trees silhouetted against the glowing backdrop.

Unusual yes.... To see severe thunderstorms in Nebraska in the morning hours of April... But it is what it is. Of course I'm not gonna miss a beat. I had gear packed and was ready the night before.

HRRR models had storms starting to develop about 5am ish to my west southwest and the models were right on spot that morning. Though I slept in till about 7 and was off without coffee and hopped into the truck to chase these morning cells.

Nice structure in the beginning but they eventually all when high based. Not many but some good photo's on this jaunt. It was worth my time!

Late June 2017 in south central Nebraska. Its been a few weeks since we had any photogenic storms of any type.

These building cumulus clouds were developing just to the east of Kearney. I was just happy to see some development. A few shots to from that afternoon, early evening.

Late May 2018, Nebraska, south central to be correct. Some good moisture from the Gulf, with the normal heating of the day can produce these small pulse cells. Though not enough sheer to make any of these severe enough to produce any type of tornadic storm.

With no serious storms to chase.... doesn't mean there is nothing picturesque to take. Cells were forming out to my northeast to the southeast. No matter where I pointed my lens that afternoon, there was some incredible stormscapes to take.

It has been an excellent start to the 2016 chase Season. Bonus was, that I had the day off and no commitments except for storm chasing. I was set for an Epic Day!

I ended up with well over 700 pic from this storm chasing event, but I've skimmed it down to about 100+. Truly this will become some of my best severe weather photography to date...

I was seriously late the game on this storm. But I was never out of the game. I had now positioned myself just to the North of Wray Colorado.

Strategically, you want to be to the south east, southwest for the best light... It's all about timing, and I thought it wouldn't produce till it was well west of my location. Giving me that perfect view of the backside rotation of the storm.

In my opinion, I found a perfect view, looking due south southeast. I ended up on the northwest side of the rotation. Dangerous yes...but this will eventually give me one excellent view of this tornado and all her glory.

It has been dry here. Very dry! Storms were foretasted to be in the South Central Nebraska area but they came late... About 1:30 in the morning and I was already tired. However the storms were close enough to get a few snaps then head back to a late night delicious BLT ok ... maybe 2 of them and then to bed! Home grown tomatoes this year have been fabulous!

More storms were looking good for the next afternoon and I wasn't going to miss this event since we haven't had any... More to come!

****

Editors Note...

Once a year a pull out a few sets from years past to start of the new year. In 2024 this year I have went back & revamped one of my favorite severe storms photo shoots of 2018

Back then I over colorized & over saturated the images. Pixelated & not my best work... Images were what I wanted but not the final product. If you want to see those to compare to these remastered images... here is your Flickr Link to that set of images...

Click Here

But these are Gems of Gems.. I've even added about 50+ images in this set that I wasn't able to work on back in 2018. I even made a video with the old images to kick off the 2023 season... You can watch this right here on Flickr... Click Here ** Please remember I used the old images in this video **

Lightning is my forte... It is why I chase storms. To have an photo opportunity come up like this & traveled only 6 blocks from my home to get these pics...Gotta Luv Nebraska!

About that evening...

An epic night of sunset light and storm light @ twilight. Its almost every storm chasers dreams... or at least, in my own opinion, to get along side of a storm like this, as its firing away some incredible CC & CG every few seconds. What more could you ask for...

I was that Lucky Guy that evening. Just mother nature and I. Close to home after a few long storm chasing jaunts is just fine by me. She was producing and I was capturing every incredible second of this storm.. No Forking Bolt went away that evening without me getting a snap of its presence..

I had a phenomenal day of storm chasing in Nebraska on this day. A western Nebraska severe weather event, with moderate risk of tornadoes..

I was on the outer rim of this redeveloping cell. Utilizing Hwy 385 north, I was in position to capture mother nature at her finest. A newly defined outflow boundary had formed, as this storm cell was gaining strength as it pushed north by northwest.

June was a tough month... Not only did I have my transmission go out on the truck. Their would be NO storm chasing for about 3 weeks. Of course its June and we did have few good storms pass though and I was disappointed that we couldn't go get em all.

Back in the saddle for this last June storm. Nice for almost end of season development. Under the base this storm no tornado was going to form due to it being undercut. Nice rotation in this cell though, and it was what we came for.
