Mid to late June in Nebraska is... in my words... a photographic storm chaser's heaven when it comes to storms. Almost every afternoon through mid evening then into the overnight, north south east or west of Kearney Nebraska we have storms that you can see clearly for hundreds of miles in any direction. Of course not all at the same time but there is plenty of eye candy this time of year.

Putting some distance between myself, a good photogenic storm and a good camera lens...The skies Nebraska offers this time of the year are truly magical. Though, there are a lot of farms and telephone poles, but if you can find the right places, there is open fields, and excellent perspectives. You can capture something special. As for example, this evening...

Folks, you see that I'm not always about chasing the Tornado. When severe weather approaches. These Nebraska Skies, they talk to me... and I never miss a good conversation...

Its truly what I wait for every season...

Non Severe late August Nebraska Thunderstorms!

Conditions were just right, almost perfect for capturing some incredible CG Nebraska Lightning. These very slow moving storm cells building just to west northwest of Kearney provided this opportunity that early morning.

Early May ... 2024

Dark storm clouds loom ominously over a rural landscape, with a nasty severe weather event. A highway stretches into the distance beside a field, leading to a cluster of farm silos under the threatening sky.

Late June in Nebraska, means late night thunderstorms, and and 4 trillion lightning bugs. they don't bother anyone, not as bad as the mosquitoes this time of year.

I didn't get many opportunities to capture lightning in 2016. When I did get the chance to chase night storms this year, my opportunities to be at the right place at the right time were few.

This was one of the few....

Developing night storm cells were in Western Buffalo county. This was a slow mover but just far enough away to get some nice shots to my west southwest.

Hail core was right on top of my location. Big stones this time with over quarter sized hail. Already broke my windshield this day in 2 places... didn't want a 3rd. Had to pack up my gear and headed south to Benkelman Nebraska.

This severe warned storm cell was moving almost due south. I had positioned myself again in front of the advancing outflow.

There is something special about the landscape in southwest Nebraska. More wheat fields than corn. It was surreal. Especially with this incredible structure on this storm.

I really enjoyed the photographic opportunities this day....Some of my best storm chasing photography for 2016! Enjoy!

Early October 2023...

Still warm almost like a summer day here... Temps in the upper 80s Low 90s. Tons of gulf moisture coming in from the states south... It was going to be a good day in south central Nebraska for severe weather... At least what the forecast called for the night b4.

Woke up to the alarms on some of digital toys to alert me of severe weather when I'm getting some shut eye. Oh they were a blazin' about 6:45 am ish. I have the gear prepped... went out my garage door to a view of this early morning supercell. Had a TVS marker on it & had some decent 1/2" hail.

Snap Snap Snap... a few views in preview to what was going to be a 2 Tornado Day... That was later that afternoon!

Had to work that evening and no plans of chasing... however I cannot resist a good photo thunderstorm op when it presents itself.

Non severe storms were forming just to my southwest. Out for about an hour to capture these before the cells dissipated, and the front moved to the east that day.

An Epic Chase Day was upon us. Though the rest of the Nation was celebrating the Holiday. National Weather Service had us pegged for a moderate risk that afternoon & evening. Due to my injures to my back the past few months. Chasing Storms has been on the back burner... Until Now!!!

First cells of the day were in North Central Kansas. The boundary line was from North Central Kansas up to Norfolk Nebraska & a bit further north. All the action that day was going to be the east of Hastings Nebraska & South. Planned it out correctly for time & distance.

We encountered this incredible updraft structure on the back side of this storm as we were passing though Hastings Nebraska. Were were trying to catch up to it Via Hwy 6 & we eventually we did just to the east to Sutton Nebraska.

This storm was producing 2" hail so we held off a few mins to the the west of Sutton. We had perfect view of the wall cloud due southwest of the hail core. Had a nice tail but never formed.

Proceeded south to get south of revved up supercell. We got along side of it via Hwy 81 south of Geneva Nebraska. Few miles south of Strang Nebraska we got ahead of the rain core & got in sight (paralleled to this storm) of this incredible developing wall cloud under the base of this storm. It did not produce a tornado but the views from this supercell were down spectacular.

We had to reposition ourselves a few miles south of Bruning Nebraska as this Supercell move south southeast.

The video & images I caught that afternoon were worth the trip. Phenomenal Storm Captures out on the plains of South Central Nebraska on the 4th of July.

Made it home to light of some fireworks & delicious bbq. Nice end to this day with family & friends after this Epic Storm Chasing Day!

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!

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.

June 3, 2014 - Kearney Nebraska US

It has been a slow start to severe weather season here in Nebraska 2014. June starts with Thunderstorms... Severe....

Were just north of Kearney that evening & they were moving directly on a eastern path. Northern Buffalo County in South Central Nebraska was the target area that evening.

Winds were ferocious, but it was warm & humid evening as the storm was raging just a miles due north of my location. Lightning was illuminating the night with frequent flashes within this storm.

Lower level lower wind clouds (scud clouds) were frequent. Was hard to watch the base of this storm with all of them blanketing the bottom of this storm.

This would be the Tornado Day... and as little as we have had for storms I wasn't going to risk the chance of not being out that afternoon and evening. Of course I wouldn't be feeling the best, but of course I'm a trooper and if there are storms I'm there... sick or not sick.

Gussied up the dredge and grabbed my chase partner for that day and we headed south. Not to know what to expect as we had a high risk for tornadoes that afternoon. This was the first severe cell of the day. It would not be the last...

June 22, 2013 - North of Kimball Nebraska

Getting ready to pick up one my best friends in Gering Nebraska. A planned outing of Storm Chasing the Nebraska Panhandle that afternoon.

Though I was tired from the 5 hour drive just to get to Gering Nebraska. I just had total hip replacement surgery and was supposed to be taking it easy. Due to the surgery. I had to stop often to exercise. Risk of blood clots on long trips were possible. So I was out and walking around a lot that afternoon.

We didn't see it but we followed this cell past Kimball Nebraska and we should have stuck with it. Due to this would have been the Dix Nebraska tornado that day. Now, over 8 hours in the truck that day and I was extremely sore. So after catching some excellent storm captures, we decided to call it day. Figures... 30 mins after we left Kimball tornado was on the ground in Dix.

Can't complain though, it was one of the best severe weather photographic opportunities for 2013. Plus I got to chase the Panhandle again. Always worth the time to chase this location and seeing good ole friends to boot.

It was a good day!

It was unexpected... Though its June and there is always a chance.... Was about asleep when I saw the flash in the window...

Had everything ready but didn't have much time to capture the incoming storm front. It had picked up speed and was moving directly at my location according to radar.

Check out this Mammoth Roll Cloud out in front of this storm!

This set of captures were taken just south of Wymore Nebraska. I had just came from south of Fairbury when over our 2 way reports of the storm to the south of Wymore had just went tornadic and there had already been confirmed reports of funnels ...

I don't speed, I calculated the time it would take for me to get there and .. I had time indeed to get into position to intercept. So I moved again to get into position, to get aligned with this next storm cell.

Already in Wymore & heading south. The storm was Raging... Moving due northeast... Some good hail 1 1/2" diameter hail stones were pounding my truck just on the outskirts of the township. I had stopped in a safe position... I was on the back end of the storm on the southwest side of the rotation... about 200 yards due east I noticed rotation right in front of me and BINGO...

2nd Tornado of 2018 in all of it's sweetness....

EF-0

Path about 1 - 1 1/2 mile to the northeast

All 3-4 mins of it eh!!!

Another Incredible Nebraska Skyscape. Beautiful July ambient light, against a dying thunderstorm. Nope it's not severe but it's what I do when the light is right. Plus, I was super sick... A few days away from being forced into the hospital. I'm better now, and thankful.. that's a story to come!

I honestly took extra time on these captures. I was using a new filter on my new lens. So no added color or any adjustments to the image in Photoshop on this set. Now I had to bring them through Photoshop from raw... but that's it and of course the pano's are done separately.

Also... I only had one camera...for video that evening. Otherwise you would have seen this first storm cross over and you would have seen some sweet Nebraska thunderstorm views. Just to the east southeast. July Mammatus... these are just as sweet as this video... Just captures though...These have been added to this set.

It seemed the sicker I got, the better the photography I took... It was only about 10 days till I was forced into the hospital. I shouldn't have been out. But you don't get captures like this if you don't go try to catch them...

I was sick but had a blast, and what I caught was just Awesome!

A moderate risk day in South Central Nebraska, with storm forming on the western side of Dawson County & counties due south and southwest.

Severe storms now pushing due north northeast, they were also expanding. Had to position my self to the south back into Dawson county. I stopped right on the border between Custer & Dawson counties to get these next few captures. Right before the next storm cluster came into view!

July came in with a Bang! Sweet storm setup with small tornado potential this day. We knew before we went that this would be an outflow dominate storm. A shelf cloud that stretched all the way from South Dakota into Kansas. 286 Miles long as we intercepted this beast storm about 8:15pm near Beaver City Nebraska for starters.

For some odd reason my Canon T3i overheated this late evening so I wasn't able to get all the pics that wanted from this day. With that being said, I have limited photos from this event.

Though what we did capture was simply Storm Chasing Eye Candy! High instability with a huge mammatus field stretching from horizon to horizon. One of the best photographic shelf clouds of the 2020 season.

Best thing was, we got out in front of it again by Alma Nebraska... Surreal!

With pics from my smartphone and some video help from Myles Nelson I was able to put this vid together! Took a few weeks but the end result is of course ....Epic! Storm Chasing out in the plains of South Central Nebraska to kick off the month of July was simply a hoot!

Now positioned just to the south of the city. Funny when I parked on a side road.. which was heading east, I was parked heading west (in a corn field). The road was called "Thunder Ln". Ironic.. I don't think so!

This was the approaching storm from the northwest. I was shooting video and I didn't have my tripod. Time was short before I lost all light and out of 25 shots this one was the only one that was not blurry. Last of the series, and it was a great way to start of my 2018 storm chasing year.

A Kewl HD Video to Boot! Some good footage of rotation on the furthermost point south of the storm. On the South side of Phillipsburg Kansas. Its to big to put on Flickr ...Link on over to my YouTube Channel to view the Video youtu.be/3K8Av9Q00L0

I was loosing light fast, as the sun was already setting. Back into Buffalo County and just to the southeast of Riverdale Nebraska. In good position for the final shots of the day.

Now the NWS had downgraded this storm and no longer had issued warning on it. Though, there was some nicely defined outflow dominating the edge of this storm.

Not a disappointment... in fact it was a memorable shelf cloud to end this day's chase.

Severe warnings just to the west of Lexington Nebraska on a Sunday eve...shortly after 9pm... what more could I ask for!

Way past sunset and I had all the equipment ready to go. Jaunted out to a few miles west of the city to get set up for a intense night of storm photography & videography.

This ended up being the best photogenic storm of April 2019 and I didn't have to chase it as it came to me! How sweet is that! April Storm Chasing Eye Candy!

Watch the Video from that afternoons storm chase from

August 13, 2019 on Flickr Click Here

Under the base of this storm, we already has meso detection. TVS markers were on radar and it was moving directly to Ogallala Nebraska.

We got there on time and stopped right off of the interstate at a gas station with the best view.

This highly photographic supercell was maturing. But at this moment... This storm decided to weaken just a bit as we waited for this cell to produced a nader. Lost the TVS marker so we didn't stay long and packed the gear and headed south towards Grant Nebraska.

Storm Chasing Video from that Afternoon on Flickr Click Here

Working on Spring projects with the wife. Enjoying our day together. Plans were made & I had no plans for chasing any storms even if they form.

Honestly, My time with family succeeds any other activity. I knew there were storms to the south of us this day. But again it was family time. I didn't even look on radar.

Finished our projects & went out to the front of the house and my jaw dropped!!! Literally in front of me this incredible updraft on a NON-severe warned storm. This had no warning on it, and I was dumbfounded. Asked... Wife said go get'm Tiger... Rest is History.

Storm Chasing is not always about catching a Tornado. This storm cell was already in its dying stages... Finished off this afternoon with some up close and personal shots of this dying thunderstorm!

The month of July in Nebraska is mostly just outflow storms from about mid June on. Meaning extremely strong outflow winds in front of this storm. Destructive that evening with winds over 60+ mph.

Once the storm base moved closer I was able to get some incredible cloud to ground strikes that would make for some of the best lighting captures of 2018. Like clock work I expected a late night storm with some phenomenal definition.

Beautiful crystal blue lightning illuminated the night as the arcus (shelf cloud) approached from the due west. Severe warnings were in place & right in my direction. Got to my location, set up the gear and went to town... Nothing but Crystal Blue Thunderstorm Eye Candy!!!

Mid to late June in Nebraska is... in my words... a photographic storm chaser's heaven when it comes to storms. Almost every afternoon through mid evening then into the overnight, north south east or west of Kearney Nebraska we have storms that you can see clearly for hundreds of miles in any direction. Of course not all at the same time but there is plenty of eye candy this time of year.

Putting some distance between myself, a good photogenic storm and a good camera lens...The skies Nebraska offers this time of the year are truly magical. Though, there are a lot of farms and telephone poles, but if you can find the right places, there is open fields, and excellent perspectives. You can capture something special. As for example, this evening...

Folks, you see that I'm not always about chasing the Tornado. When severe weather approaches. These Nebraska Skies, they talk to me... and I never miss a good conversation...

Early June... 2024

Supercell #2 Approaches...

A dramatic sky looms over an open countryside, with dark storm clouds gathering above a lonely road. Road signs can be seen along the roadside, directing travelers amidst the ominous weather.

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!

Late June in Nebraska, means late night thunderstorms, and and 4 trillion lightning bugs. they don't bother anyone, not as bad as the mosquitoes this time of year.

I didn't get many opportunities to capture lightning in 2016. When I did get the chance to chase night storms this year, my opportunities to be at the right place at the right time were few.

This was one of the few....

Developing night storm cells were in Western Buffalo county. This was a slow mover but just far enough away to get some nice shots to my west southwest.

This would become an epic night of light and storm! Some of my best lighting captures of 2011 are in this set!

A few hours later that evening storms in north central Kansas fired up again as they were pushing into south central Nebraska. @ This time with severe warnings, the lightning was firing off.

I was in luck! They were foretasted to move almost due norht / northeast over the next few hours and I just had to find a good location. Due to the time of year the corn here in this part of Nebraska is at its peak. 13-16 foot corn. I had to find a spot that I could see over the corn.

I grabbed my gear & headed south. Made my way down, via country roads, from Kearney just to the north of Wilcox Nebraska. I sat along side this storm as it produced one of the most EPIC displays of lightning for 2011. Every few seconds there was incredible cloud to ground lightning. Sometimes it would spider out (cloud to cloud) and sometimes it would just be a fork or a positive cg bolt that was out of this world.

It was unexpected... Though its June and there is always a chance.... Was about asleep when I saw the flash in the window...

Had everything ready but didn't have much time to capture the incoming storm front. It had picked up speed and was moving directly at my location according to radar.

Check out this Mammoth Roll Cloud out in front of this storm!

Traveled back home. Download the images from the SD cards and recharged the batteries to the cams...

After 10pm ish, another storm developed right off to the west of the city. Tons of cloud to cloud and ambient lightning were firing off every few seconds.

If this is how the rest of the year of 2012 is going to be... I'm gonna be one happy guy!

I was in route via Hwy 183 South down to catch that Easter Sunday Supercell... Before I hit the Nebraska / Kansas border, I flipped the truck around to catch the developing cells on the dry line back in my home turf, Kearney Nebraska.

I was about 100 miles to the south when I took this snap... Classic Nebraska thunderstorm structure on this with the updraft and anvil shoot off to the east... What a view... but this was just the beginning...

Had to find a better place due to where the storm was coming in from. I had reposition myself right next to the High School football field. Long extended ditch that has a small roadway. Couldn't have asked for a better open sky than this.

This storm was moving rather slowly about 10 mph to the due north almost northwest. Outflow dominate, simply meaning this nice outflow. A shelf cloud on the outer rim of this storm as it approached. B E A U T I F U L!

Waiting...

Due to the El Niño (The Super El Niño that is forming in the Pacific) is going to hinder the storm development this year here in Nebraska.

I'll be honest. Our weather pattern here is not favorable for development of severe weather in 2023. June usually comes in with a boom. Simply it hasn't. 30 Day models right now have all the storms north & south of Nebraska. It is the Omega Bubble effect & Nebraska is Bullseye for 2023. So I'm gonna take what I can get.

I have been ailing a really bad back injury from years past. Hindered my chasing in mid to late May. Was unable to do so because I simply couldn't get into my truck.

Feeling better the first part of June I pulled out the cams out in front of the homestead & captured this nice early June storm here in south central Nebraska. Severe Warned but that was about it. Had some small hail & much need rain.

I enjoyed getting out & back on the Hunt!

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.
