Dark storm clouds fill the sky as the sun sets, casting a golden glow on the horizon. The open field below is lush and green, contrasting sharply with the dramatic sky.

Always good storm chasing stories to tell about my weather adventures in 2014.

 

Days right after my knee operated on... Home from the hospital & I definitely wasn't supposed to be out and about. Knee was almost in a cast and I wasn't supposed to be doing anything to aggravate the situation. Though my quest for severe weather never ends and I wasn't going to miss another possible chase especially when its in my backyard. This storm was going to be a photogenic monster... Decision was made & off I went.

 

Personal Note *** On the original set Back in 2014 I had use the free Avery photo editor here Flickr and it wasn't the best but I had no prior knowledge of editing them back then. Only shot in .jpg format and I didn't do the best by over coloring and over saturation. Was very under experienced in photo editing back then.

 

This is the original set of captures from this day. There are some here that are edited but most of them are not altered here. Another epic set of thunderstorm captures from South Central Nebraska.

 

By going out ... I paid for it. Soreness without relief for a few days after this shoot. Knee after the surgery was super sore with lots of swelling. All worth it when it comes to what epic views I caught storm chasing on that particular day!

*** Personal Note ***

 

Every year on/in the Non Storm Season... I go back & re-edit the masters. This year I wanted to get this set done since I was way over everything... To much color, to much contrast, there were flaws in the panoramas... The orginal set can be found here on Flickr

 

I have Remastered this Series

Fixed Everything. Normal Color, no added saturation or contrast. No Extra's. You're seeing the Raw images. Slight adjustment with light but that was about it.. Also Fixed the flaws in the panoramas!...

 

**************

 

I have this uncanny knack to get to the right place at the right time when it comes to storms... This one was another spot on encounter. I decided to eyeball this storm and put away the radar and other electronics and just chase use the old way.

 

It had been a few weeks since any good photographic storms. We had Severe Thunderstorm warnings counties south of Phelps county (Located in South Central Nebraska) that afternoon.

 

Raced this cell and I was now in position to capture this beauty. Just a few miles north of Elm Creek on Hwy 183. This place has the best view over the valley. Worst cell phone reception ever.. even with a 4g booster I couldn't push out a signal.

It was my last hurrah for 2017.

 

Hwy 183 Northbound..

 

It took some time, and I didn't waste any to get back into position.

 

The winds were ferocious. I couldn't keep a steady shot. I jimmy rigged it and finally got it steady enough in the wind to get these final shots of the year.

 

It was worth my time and effort this day. Some of my best to end the 2017 Storm Chasing Season.

Sitting on the side of a supercell at sunset in Nebraska! What I was about to witness was going to be epic! True Thunderstorm Eye Candy! Tons of ambient cloud to cloud lightning! Erupting over the spacious Nebraska Skyline..

 

Front row tickets to the show and this was going to be a double creature feature!

Nebraska gets a bad rap from folks that pass through this state due its flatness. (BTW the state is not all flat) Though It has some of the best perspectives one could ever want. It just depends on how you look at it.

 

I myself once hated to live here. Though my travels when I was younger I found out that Nebraska has a lot more to offer than what people think. You just have to look beyond what people say. There is a lot more here than one might think.

 

Perspective in this photograph... is what I want to you to view. The soul ambiance of a Pure Nebraska Sunset has its own magic. Until you experience this just once... Just as good as seeing one anywhere else on the Planet. In my words... better.

 

BTW there is a storm in the background.... lol Just had to put that in there...

After a good local storm chase day. Another cell popped up close to 11pm. I had everything from that afternoon shoot downloaded and cameras were charged....

 

I was out for about and hour and caught some incredible lightning!

Dark, swirling storm clouds dominate the sky over a vast green landscape, creating a dramatic and intense scene. The ground is blurred, suggesting that I was exiting this area fast. Also strong winds now pushing fast beneath the churning skies.

Late June Storm, severe warned and moving my way...

 

Packed and Saddled and ready for that afternoon's events. Getting fulled up and looking due southwest. Towers were exploding and we had nice crystal clear air in front of this storm. The Severe Warning was for winds and hail. We just didn't have enough shear with this storm for it to be come tornadic.

 

Outflow Dominate it shall be... Oh this was going to be one to remember! Most of these captures came from south of Kearney, about 14-15 miles just north of the NTV Studios.

 

I had to eventually move north back into the city limits of Kearney. Sitting on the south side of the Interstate pointing the camera due southeast then to the southwest. This shelf cloud had some really amazing structure to it. Just a jaw dropping storm!

South Central Nebraska, early May 2012. No chasing this day due to work late. Afternoon Storms were predicted that afternoon & evening. Slow movers they were to be.

 

Off work & I was in luck. The dryline had stalled right over south central Nebraska that afternoon & the explosion of billowing thunderheads erupted. Billowing picturesque Thunderheads. Some of the most photogenic cells I caught in 2012.

 

Wicked Photogenic Severe Storms developing just to my east and & another batch of developing severe storms right over my head & moving the northeast. What a afternoon of Light & Severe Storms... Click Click Click!!!!

A 4 1/2 hour drive from Nebraska to Northwest Missouri. Picked up my big sis and we were off to Storm Chase that afternoon in Southwest Iowa with a Moderate Risk of Severe Weather.

 

Lots of action that afternoon, but all of the tornadic parts of these storms were to stay south in Arkansas. Didn't stop us at all that day. I was on the hunt, and we were in for some good severe weather treats that afternoon.

 

Still nothing of any severity, though we had warning on the cells just to the south of my location. The cells that we were following proceeded north at a fast pace. Unable to keep up or pace with them we decided to wait for the next cells to cycle and build to our southeast. We were in luck as we were under the next cells that had went severe...

 

As this cell was right overhead, the sunset peaking through the storm clouds was giving off some incredible light. A few shots to capture the moment...

 

Some Cloud Pareidolia.. Check out the Angel playing a flute on the left side... and the old man in the storm on the right side looking down at us... lol

Our storm season is coming to an end, I wasn't about to miss out on one of Mother Natures last showing of Electrical Theater...in South Central Nebraska.

 

First round of storms hit about 5am. Sound asleep, my wife was shaking me, get up, get up.. I was prepared in case the storms erupted. There was so much lightning, it illuminated everything in the room. Grabbed my essential gear, headed out of the house, opened garage door and the 45mph wind gust made the rain go horizontal. Pea sized hail was ferociously coming down, I wasn't going anywhere.....

 

I was honestly disappointed, thinking that I had probably missed my last good opportunity for some incredible nighttime storm captures. Storms were supposed to fire in the early overnight not early morning.....

 

Hence living in Nebraska, patience has to be a virtue for every storm enthusiast. I went out after the first storms pushed through. I was about to capture some of my best of storm snaps of 2013. I was in luck, as strong thunderstorm redevelopment just off to the southwest....

 

The 2nd round of storms were producing some incredible Cloud to Cloud, and tons of Cloud to Ground Lighting. I couldn't have asked for a better photo opportunity!

 

I was hoping that these won't be the last shots of 2013, the were not.... Definitely worth my time catching them that early morning! Eye Candy for the Storm Chaser in Mind!

A new job, and with restricted hours to do what I do best... capture the moments of Nebraska...Really, this was my last opportunity to capture some good ole Nebraska stormscapes before, what I would have thought to be the seasons end.

 

Again Mother Nature didn't disappoint, as some severe warned storms were weakening as they were entering southern Buffalo County, in south central Nebraska

Storm Chasing Video from afternoon / evening on Flickr Click Here

 

Just to the west of Odessa Nebraska...

 

As all of my cameras were pointed towards the supercell showing all that rotation. I really didn't pay attention to the storm that was coming in from the due north, until I paused to look that way.

 

2nd Storm was almost on top of my location. Luckily it was moving to the southeast & that meant I had a little time before the storm moved directly over.

 

This 2nd storm was outflow dominate. Producing this incredibly photogenic shelf cloud as in slow crept toward the city of Kearney.

 

This storm just kept getting photographically better by the minute. I had to flip 180s for a few mins as both storms was producing some insane storm photography!

On the open plains of Nebraska...

 

August was a GEM month for severe storm structure. Folks... I didn't miss a beat.

 

Pure Eye Candy this one is. Open air supercells developing right as the dry line passed over us in South Central Nebraska.

 

I wasn't going to get underneath this one though it was close. I could have chased it, but I wanted to get the structure that day. Oh I got what I came for!

 

I had planned accordingly. Knowing that the storm was going to pass as it rapidly developed to the due east. I waited for bit under the hail core before I got into position to capture this storm.

 

Building Billowing Beautiful updrafts on the back side of this storm were memorizing. Perfect Supercell structure.

August 11, 2019 on Flickr Click Here

 

Darkness ascended and we had to pull off into McCook Nebraska to refill on fuel. Met up with some other storm chasers as we were all heading due east to get back in front of these strong storm cells.

 

The strongest positive lighting strokes I've seen this year were upon us as we moved directly south of McCook Nebraska. The supercell down in Atwood Kansas was starting to pick up steam and was heading almost due east. It was only a 30 mile jaunt to the south but by the time we would have made the haul south would have been in the thick of it and no longer in front. We decided to stop and a get a few pics just south of McCook Nebraska before we headed into south Central Nebraska.

 

A massive arcus or shelf cloud was pushing out in front of the boundary line and the strong positive lightning cg strikes were simply jaw dropping!

Incredible structure on this just issued warned storm cell.

 

Traveling south from Odessa Nebraska, I could see the rotation on this from about 20 miles away.

 

I didn't waste any time to get to my location just south of Holdrege Nebraska to get into the perfect position to get these captures.

*** Personal Note ***

This is the original set back in 2014. If there was any type of editing done, I used the free Avery photo editor here Flickr. My Opinion... it wasn't the best but I had no prior knowledge of editing them back then. Plus I only shot in .jpg format not in .raw and I didn't do the best by over coloring and over saturation. There are some in this set this way. I was very under experienced in photo editing back then.

Always good storm chasing stories to tell about my weather adventures in 2014.

 

Days right after my knee replacement... Home from the hospital & I definitely wasn't supposed to be out and about. Knee was almost in a cast and I wasn't supposed to be doing anything to aggravate the situation. Though my quest for severe weather never ends and I wasn't going to miss another possible chase especially when its in my backyard. This storm was going to be a photogenic monster... Decision was made & off I went.

 

Stepped out to the front of the house and directly due southeast of Kearney was this incredible thunderhead display on the back side of this storm. The sun had finally peaked out from the western cloud cover and was really illuminating the back side of this storm.

 

Another epic set of thunderstorm captures from South Central Nebraska. Though I paid for it with my knee just being replaced. I was super sore and the swelling was unreal a few days after this event. All worth it when it comes to what epic views I caught storm chasing on that particular day!

Well its be close to a month since I've actually been out chasing. July 2019 in South Central Nebraska has been hot and dry... for the most part. Another reason for my absence is my trusty storm chasing truck is on her last leg. I've had transmission problems and the wheel bearings are going out on 2 of the tires. Its 20 years old and she has taken good care of me and my storm chasing adventures over the past. I'm going to have to retire her instead of putting more money into the till for her to get fixed. I have new truck being custom built for storm chasing in 2020. She has been ordered and will be picking it up in September.

 

Oh yeah... we have had severe storms in the State of Nebraska, both West and East throughout the month of July. By the time they would even get to our location in the South Central Region of the state....they were just rain showers. More flooding rains to the east a about a week ago 3rd time for some of the folks in the state. I'm sure the farmers are not to happy and are waiting for harvest to start.

 

So with that being said...I did get out just once in July. On a night that the storms were perking and it was late. Extremely tired but you all know when it comes to lightning, I don't miss a beat! Opportunities are rare this time of year and I really never miss a storm. Especially if it is close! I couldn't resist!

****

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 the night off and we had 90% chance of severe weather developing after sunset. I was on a mission to capture some lightning. Though chasing these types of storms, watching them build and die sporadically this time of year in South Central Nebraska can be frustrating.

 

Simply we had find the right cells and get into intercept position in front of the storm. Not an easy task, but I wasn't going to be denied on this night's chase....

 

Waiting for the first cells to develop just to our west as warnings were just issued, we had this incredible sunset...

Typical May evening in Nebraska. High humidity and warm temps were returning to the plains.

 

Cells were to form to the west north west of Kearney that evening. We had a few rogue storm cells, small but were building and shooting off just a ton on cloud to cloud lightning just to the north of my location.

 

Trying to get out of the city lights, so I could get some long exposure without all that ambient light. Found a little notch along the highway, and parked. OK, not the best with they power lines in the frame, I know I could photoshop these out but I think it helps give depth.

Day 6 in a row of severe storms with our chase day starting northern Kansas.

 

Good friend and fellow storm chaser Chuck Patient was on the ride along that day.

 

We had gone through a few good rain bans on the way south out of Nebraska into northern Kansas when out of the blue just to the west of our location this incredible wall cloud formed briefly, and stuck around for a few minutes before it became rain wrapped.

 

As far as I know this did not produce a funnel, but the rotation sure was incredible to watch live!

Dark storm clouds loom ominously over a vast green field, creating a dramatic contrast between the sky and the landscape. A narrow band of intense rainfall is visible in the distance, enhancing the sense of this impending storm.

Mid August 2014.... A very hot & humid Sunday afternoon. With only a %30 chance of storms developing, we had a chance for a severe weather to develop. Central & South Central Nebraska were due for a good August Storm.

 

Conditions were just right for storms to brew. Right after 4pm CDT, northern Buffalo County (just north of my location) was getting hammered with 2'" diameter hail. This storm was on a direct course to skim just to the north of the city.

 

Had to back off from this approaching supercell. Moved back to the very outskirts of northern Kearney Nebraska. Got to the highest point possible & starting taking snaps. What a photogenic beast storm. Talk about Ominous... This approaching shelf cloud was truly a foreboding cloud structure as it creased ever so closer.

Primed and Set for a new year of Chasing Severe Weather throughout Tornado Alley. This was close to home and not a huge jaunt across several states to find those severe storms. Instead this was just really a test run for the real thing coming soon to our neck of the woods.

 

Though the cell to the south was producing some good photographic scenes... there were more storms to the north. Captivating views as the sun sets with these stormy Nebraska skyscapes!

I was late to the game on this one after the mesoscale discussion had everything to my east and models had cells developing into northern Kansas. I took the risk and missed out on the eastern Nebraska severe weather that afternoon.

 

Though I was late I wasn't out of the game as I approached from the south back into Nebraska and got into position for the severe warned cells that had just produced a tornado 25 mins before my arrival to my north. Excellent structure as the cells moved to the due south... I was in for a supercell photographic treat!

Thunderset = Cloudscapes after thunderstorm during a sunset.

 

Well its been a weird year for weather. No severe storms yet in 2020 to come into south central Nebraska. That alone is strange. Though after the past few years of flooding and other severe weather events. It is good to have a break from all of what mother nature has dished out to us here in the central plains of the US.

 

I haven't posted any new video for awhile so I thought it was time to pull out the 4k and get some practice in before our severe weather season starts... eventually. Dying thunderstorms, non severe were passing over, giving us some much needed spring moisture.

 

Oh the sky was talking and I couldn't resist getting this sunset. Another small set of photographic captures of this Nebraska Thunderset.

Late July 2023...

 

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.

*** Remastered Series***

 

****

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..

It was to good to be true, but right after sunset a secondary small non severe thunderstorm started to brew just to the southwest of Kearney.

 

Even though I just had a spectacular afternoon of some incredible stormscapes, I was in for a treat this night. An electrified thriller, one storm that I wont soon forget.

Oh there was a creature in the clouds that evening... This storm reminded me of the "Creature Feature" Something I grew up with when I was a kid. Saturday Night was always full of freight. There was an episode where the clouds came alive and came after whoever saw them... bla bla bla

 

It was one of those nights where the severe storms were just south of the city. Nighttime thunderheads shooting off just an wicked amount of cloud to cloud lightning. Every few seconds we would have another display of some crystalized forked lightning.

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!

"Stacked Plates" is storm chasers jargon for us to describe a strongly striated mesocyclone! Oh this was a B E A U T Y!

 

Late August 2011. This was a LP (Low Precip) Storm, and she didn't drop an ounce of rain. If anything did come down it evaporated before it hit the ground. It was so damn hot and humid and was just happy the sun was blocked out by the clouds and then this came along. Along with the severe warning it had on it a few counties north of my location as it moved south.

 

You can clearly see the mid-level inflow bands. Better known as striations. These were so well defined it was jaw dropping!

When the storm got close enough I couldn't really see or verify a wall cloud of any type. We had a few lowerings, but nothing significant to get me to report it. So I really can't call this a supercell. But it sure was fun one to witness!

Always good storm chasing stories to tell about my weather adventures in 2014.

 

Days right after my knee replacement... Home from the hospital & I definitely wasn't supposed to be out and about. Knee was almost in a cast and I wasn't supposed to be doing anything to aggravate the situation. Though my quest for severe weather never ends and I wasn't going to miss another possible chase especially when its in my backyard. This storm was going to be a photogenic monster... Decision was made & off I went.

 

I wasn't out for long as the storm has now passed over to the north of the city. Wasn't the wisest of ideas to go out. I headed back home & as I pulled into the drive, the backside edge of the updraft had this incredible mammatus display. It was just a bit north of the city & I had a phenomenal view of this storm as it passed almost directly overhead. Sunlight that was cresting against this was simply incredible. So much detail in these mammatus clouds I couldn't quit taking snaps.

 

Personal Note *** On the original set Back in 2014 I had use the free Avery photo editor here Flickr and it wasn't the best but I had no prior knowledge of editing them back then. Only shot in .jpg format and I didn't do the best by over coloring and over saturation. Was very under experienced in photo editing back then.

 

Another epic set of thunderstorm captures from South Central Nebraska remastered through Lightroom and Photoshop. Though I paid for it with my knee just being replaced. I was super sore and the swelling was unreal a few days after this event. All worth it when it comes to what epic views I caught storm chasing on that particular day!

Pushing close to 60,000 feet, these cells had some good instability. Finally, we had some moisture to play with and dew points we on the rise.

 

Patiently waiting the 2017 chase season, I was off to capture some impressive Nebraska stormscapes.

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!

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!

Stepped out to the front of the house and directly due southeast of Kearney was this incredible thunderhead display on the back side of this storm. The sun had finally peaked out from the western cloud cover and was really illuminating the back side of this storm.

 

Another epic set of thunderstorm captures from South Central Nebraska. Though I paid for it with my knee just being replaced. I was super sore and the swelling was unreal a few days after this event. All worth it when it comes to what epic views I caught storm chasing on that particular 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 right 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!

Finally a good chase day I can brag about....

 

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

 

Storms were just forming and becoming severe and I was approaching them from the east. Several low layer clouds were forming and this popped out of nowhere a single turkey neck formed... that resembles a seahorse or a dancing dragon. Gotta love cloud pareidolia!

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.

 

Dark storm clouds loom over a long, empty road stretching into the horizon. The landscape is a mix of green fields with patches of sunlight breaking through.

 

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!

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!

on Flickr Click Here

 

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.
