It was the reason why I got into storm photography. It has taken years of practice to capture it without a lightning trigger. Patients is the Key. But when it happens you have to be ready. It doesn't stay around for very long.

Had the equipment locked and stocked. Knew the storm was coming and wala... It took til August 2021 to do but finally some incredibly good and wicked lightning!

Would you like to see this image without the water mark...Click Here

Found the perfect spot just north of Norton Kansas. Got the gear ready as a severe thunderstorm warning was just issued.

I had positioned myself perfectly as everything that was severe was heading right into my direction to the southeast.

The outflow boundary had increased in size and strength. Definitely visible... It was go time and I was taking snaps like a madman!

Early season storms here in Nebraska are simply surreal. The epic beauty that surpasses the sunset's ability to crest its light against the ominous position of this storm that evening.

Sunset cresting into twilight with a huge anvil (Cumulonimbus Incus) approaching from the northwest into South Central Nebraska.

I had way over colorized saturated other things to this original set of images. So I went back & took the raw images back to their original color templates & remastered them back to the original color specs of the origin image.

I only had a few of these published when I posted them back in 2017. Here is the entire set reworked!

Our first non severe thunderstorms of the 2016 season.

I've been itching to get out to capture some Nebraska stormscapes. I was totally satisfied with that afternoons storm front that passed through about 6:30pm.

Not bad for my first batch of storm captures 2016!

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.

Severe warned right after sunset. Found an open spot to shoot just some incredible June storm photography for 2022!

Lost the last light of the day... Slide back into the city limits to have the city lights paint the sky. Best way to get the low level light to work for me!

Sporadic cloud to ground lightning. More so the cloud to cloud lightning was illuminating this shelf cloud & underbelly of this storm. It was a fast mover so not many but a few gems to close out this night.

Early June 2026

Finally a severe storm that I was interested in. Had all the right signs, the right ingredients for this cell to create some spin. You have to be patient when your in the mix.

Once I'm in the mix I usually put all the electronics away and do everything visually. It really gives me the true perspective of what I'm actually looking for. The raw development of storm structure. I got what I came for that afternoon.

Dark storm clouds gather over a flat, expansive landscape. The ominous atmosphere is accentuated by shifting light and shadow patterns.

Early June 2026

Finally a storm I could chase... At the time of these images & video we had a rather slow start to our normal storm season. Now the storm season is about the same every year. Mother Nature this year seemed to skip out on South Central Nebraska. Had to way til June to get anything photogenic.

A powerful storm cloud looms over a vast, open landscape. The dark and dramatic clouds create a sense of impending rain and thunder.

This storm was the basic beginning of what I call the the true storm season. Not just abundant rain but with severity. From this point forward. Mother Nature & I came to our yearly agreement... It was more than satisfactory!

Our Storm Season is coming to an end. We have a very limited opportunity between the Sept 1 til the end of October we have a chance for severe weather.

We had that chance... We need the rain... Mother Nature put on a rather good lightning show that evening. However no matter what direction I tried to put the camera at I was getting pelted with rain. Small series of shots here. Only took a few snaps, got a little wet, but it was worth it.

South of Phillipsburg Kansas just a few miles, I have my place to stop and its on East Thunder Road... I'm Serious...

Down in the valley with open sky and a few telephone poles on the left side of the road. Overall a great place to get some wide angle views as this storm approached!

Last Day of Fall 2016, as the Solstice was upon us. The colors of this sunset were Surreal! The clouds that evening were perfect for the sunset to crest its light. All the different shades were present, and I couldn't have asked for a better light and cloud mixture.

I started off the year with a fantastic sunset, I might as well get another incredible sunset in before the years end.

1st storms for June 2021

Moderate risk for this section of Nebraska. As we packed our gear and left about 3:00am to intercept these forwarding storm cells. Yes I said 3:00 am.

6:30am ish....Once in position to intercept... They were moving extremely fast and once they moved over our location it was hard to keep in front of them. We tried. Though we eventually have to move south Close to Shelby Nebraska we got the last severe storm of the day!

Part of a severe weather system moving northeast out of North Central Kansas. These late afternoon Supercells developed under the perfect conditions. They were in photographic range just to the Southeast of Buffalo County. Sculptured cumulus thunderheads were way to good to pass up that afternoon.

Torrential heavy downpours, hail up to 1/2 dollar size and 3 confirmed tornadoes in Adams & Hall counties just to the east of Kearney Nebraska.

On the hunt for Severe Weather after about a month off of chasing. Though, always prepared and ready to go on another storm chasing adventure, once the storm models look favorable I was off to Eastern Colorado!

Tornado warning had just come over about 4:20pm MDT and we were just about to intercept. We were 4 mins late to see the tornado but we did get right under the base off the storm that produced it. Strong winds and hail accompanied this as we got to the south of this rotating supercell. Up close and personal!

That last storm was moving extremely fast... 35+ knots. We had tried to stay ahead of the storm as we moved east but wasn't expecting the morning traffic to be that bad... it was. Plus this first storm dropped some torrential downpours. Causing some difficult if not impassible flooding situations as we moved due south.

Just south of Shelby Nebraska.... We were approaching the last severe thunderstorm of the morning.

Storm Chasing Video from afternoon on Flickr Click Here

September was still hot & humid within the wide open plains of Nebraska. The drought this time of year is normal. The heat is not. Was lucky to get this lone storm that afternoon.

The winding down of the storm season is right on time. We did have a few night storms with some good lightning. But my time is limited this time of year. Was only able to get this event.

A photogenic storm was what I need & what was received that afternoon. It was the last storm that I chased for 2022.

Our Severe Weather seasons is coming to a close. One last severe weather setup and it would be worth our time to chase.

We were obviously to close now and we had to pack up and exit fast.

Though that wasn't going to be easy. We had rain past few days and the roads here are not dirt. They are clay with gravel over them. I've learned my lesson driving on Nebraska Dirt Roads... You Don't if you want to chase the storm.

Staying on pavement we headed south towards Loomis Nebraska and the to Holdrege and back north to Intercept via Hwy 181.

This had the classic hook echo on radar and we were right on time for the next event. Though this storm didn't produce another tornado we got right underneath the rotating base of this storm.

Time to wrap up shop for this first chase of the year. Sun was setting fast and there wasn't much light left to capture this storm. Packed up the video gear and headed back home.

I was really enjoying this last light of the day. Cresting light blues from the storm to my south with a mammatus field above my head and more storms developing off to my west... what more could I ask for! A Nebraska Thunderset... what an awesome way to end this day!

In September, Nebraska’s sunsets transform into breathtaking spectacles, amplified by the dramatic presence of thunderstorms and supercells. As summer’s heat begins to wane, the Great Plains remain a hotbed for dynamic weather, with warm, moist air clashing against cooler fronts to create vibrant, fiery skies. The sun dips below the horizon, painting the vast Nebraska landscape in hues of orange, pink, and purple, often intensified by towering cumulonimbus clouds. These clouds, illuminated by the fading light, glow with an ethereal quality, their edges tinged with gold as the sun’s rays refract through the atmosphere. The open plains offer an unobstructed view, making the interplay of light and storm clouds a daily masterpiece, where the sinking sun seems to set the sky ablaze against the silhouette of distant fields.

For those in rural areas, watching a September supercell at sunset is an unforgettable experience. The air grows heavy with the scent of rain, and the distant rumble of thunder provides a soundtrack to the visual spectacle. Farmers and storm chasers alike pause to witness the sky’s drama, knowing that these storms can bring both vital rain and potential destruction to the region’s corn and soybean fields. The fleeting moments when the sun’s last rays pierce through breaks in the storm clouds create a sense of timelessness, connecting the observer to the raw, untamed spirit of the Plains. In Nebraska, September sunsets paired with thunderstorms and supercells are not just weather events—they’re a vivid reminder of nature’s ability to inspire wonder and respect in equal measure.

We had a few storms that I missed that first week of June, so just to get out and get some captures was my mission on this day.

Some really good development just to the southwest of Kearney caught my eye... I was surprised to see a small pileus cap on this developing cell. It was a precedence on what was to become.

Now back in South Central Nebraska... We were about to experience the strongest outflow boundary of the year. 110-120 mph winds were accompanied by this super strong beast. Tons of cloud to cloud lightning and beautiful arcus shelf cloud structure was beautiful view as she approached from the southwest.

Now moving almost directly due east we had to jimmy south to Alma Nebraska from Hwy 89 to get back in front of this monster. Believe it or not, the calm before the storm was evident here. No wind until the shelf came over our heads and then we got hit hard. Luckily we had gear already prepped and put away as headed north as soon as this hit our location.

Though you know me... I waited till the very last second to get these captures!

On the hunt for Severe Weather after about a month off of chasing. Though, always prepared and ready to go on another storm chasing adventure, once the storm models look favorable I was off to Eastern Colorado!

This cell was in regeneration mode and was about to produce another tornado just to the west of Wray Colorado. We had to catch up and get back in front of the base. Though the base had now expanded and was building. We got back into position as we proceeded north of Wray but the storm was violent and severe enough for us to make us turn around and head east. But before we did we witnessed some incredible outflow.

This shelf cloud was mean and nasty. Just the way I like it! It was really showing her teeth!

Strong Cloud to Ground Lightning was accompanying this first wave of the storms rain core pounds my location. Braved the wind hail and torrential rain that was absolutely rocking my truck to get these incredible captures!

Supercell Approaches...

A massive, swirling storm cloud dominates the sky over a vast, flat landscape of farmland. The ominous cloud formation appears dynamic and turbulent.

Dark storm clouds dominate the sky, illuminated by a striking bolt of lightning. A faint horizon separates the turbulent atmosphere from the calm earth below.

3nd Chase of 2017...

Another early April moderate risk day in South Central Nebraska. Which would turn out to a bust. Storm really didn't fire till after sunset.

Waiting for the instability to fire the storms. Was in the right place, just mother nature had other plans. This particular cell was just building and didn't produce anything but some scenic cloudscapes....

Some nice Nebraska Storm Eye Candy to tide me over till the storms that evening.

6th Year in a row we have had a severe thunderstorm pop in south central Nebraska late evening on the 4th of July. Thousands of strikes and the cloud to cloud lightning was simply breathtaking.

This storm crested right south of the I-80 Nebraska corridor, which is just south of Kearney. It was stationary for about an hour and then it pushed a little east before it grew and slowly moved to the southeast into North Central Kansas.

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.

Mid May 2026

We finally had our first bout of severe weather after a horrendous drought season. We welcome the rain but not the severe weather. But an actuality when severe weather approaches that's when I shine....

Day 2 of Severe weather events across Nebraska. My adult daughter by my side. She didn't want to miss out on this years severe weather events as her passion equals mine... She wasn't going to be disappointed this day!

We grabbed the gear and headed deep in Central Nebraska that afternoon. Long story short... We avoided the Chaser Convergence & planned it out perfectly.

Heading south from Trenton Nebraska down to Atwood Kansas via Hwy 25....

Was simply a white knuckle drive. Nothing but straight line winds and big hail. Couldn't see anything in front of us. 10 feet was the maximum visibility. Hydroplaning due to the amount of water on the road we had to slow way down to stay safe. It was the last of the day for core punching. It takes some nerves of steel to do what I did that day.

Though I remained calm during this part of the trip the rewards for the final jaunt to get back in front of these emerging storm cells was worth the trip.

Localized flooding and several trees down in Atwood Kansas. The main part of this cell was due east about 10 miles. We didn't take long to get to our destination on beautiful plains of Kansas. One more chance for some incredible structure before we called it a day of storm chasing...

Storm Chasing Video from that day Click Here flic.kr/p/2nhQxV5

First Moderate Risk in South

Central Nebraska & North Central Kansas.

A short jaunt down the severe weather risk area that day from Kearney Nebraska. Arrived in Alma Nebraska a tad behind schedule. The storm was already tornado warned and produced a tornado southwest of Alma. Storm was raging and I wasn't in a good place. Had to core punch this storm & headed east via Hwy 136. That's were this collection of images starts.

I was east bound on Hwy 136 that skirts the border of Nebraska / Kansas. This would take me deep into the Moderate Risk for that severe weather day. Instability was visible everywhere out in front of this storm. A Mammatus Cluster with a wall cloud was right in front of me while another supercell was producing tornadoes behind my current location.

Wicked Beautiful Supercell Structure as I got up close & personal. Especially by Franklin Nebraska where I encountered my first Tornado of 2022.

East then north out of Red Cloud Nebraska. The storms were still producing severe weather but was exiting fast out of my range. End this day with a spectacular view of the backside of the storm. A huge mammatus cloud cluster to enjoy as I was heading home!
