Dark, dramatic clouds stretch across the horizon, casting a shadow over a vast, open field. The contrast between the ominous sky and the green landscape creates a striking visual effect. The scene captures the raw power of nature on the brink of a storm.

Late evening on hot and humid August evening in Nebraska. Warnings popped up about an hour before this storm was even visible to the eye over the horizon at sunset.
Spectacular Colors emitting from this stacked supercell. Cloud to Cloud Lightning shooting off every few seconds made this a storm chasers dreamscape.
Gear in hand that evening I traveled north out of Odessa Nebraska. Now about 2 miles to the east of Amherst Nebraska. This storm was strengthening and moving almost due south, southeast, meaning it was coming right at my location.
It would be a Historic Event to capture! Now remastered to the original color with no enhancements. Enjoy!

Late July 2023...
This month of storms was just down right jaw dropping. Why not continue since we didn't have any storms in May or June! Overtime for July is the way I like it!
90% of the time of year in South Central Nebraska is Hot & Humid. It is normally the beginning of our dry season. But not in 2023.
In the path of the Jet Stream that day that forced some severe thunderstorm development over south central Nebraska. We were not excepting anything super severe but a tornado or 2 is always possible this time of year.
Gear Primed & excited about the views I'm going to get for this event that day. I knew they were going to be photogenic.

I was seriously late the game on this storm. But I was never out of the game. I had missed a few of the other tornados that afternoon in Northern Yuma County. Coming from south to north I had to position myself correctly. Chaser Convergence was also in full swing so there were not may open areas to choose from.
For best pics of a Tornado and to be safe about it a storm such as this was moving North by Northeast... strategically, you want to be to the south east, southwest for the best light... Behind the RFD (Rear Flank Downdraft) It's all about timing, and I honestly didn't think it would produce a tornado til it was well west of my location. That was going to be the wrong guess... Though when I went due north of Wray I had a good viewing point but not in the safest location as you see.
I got lucky this day as...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.
Staying as safe as I could I wouldn't bail till it was about a mile away then I would head north again to a safer / better viewing position.

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.

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.

First moderate risk day of the year out in Western Nebraska. We decided to head out early to catch the action.
Was trying to Twitch Stream (streaming link down below) our chase this day, though my HD camera decided otherwise. Had many technical glitches that afternoon and I'm happy mishaps happen on the first chase of the year. Prepares the next adventure without failure.
First storm erupted north of Grant Nebraska but I was messing around with the live feed and didn't take any snaps... put the problems aside and moved north to Ogallala Nebraska to catch this dying cell.
Not many pics in this set but was caught was worth every second to get out of the house for a few hours!

On the northern border of Kansas I patiently awaited the last severe cells that I could chase in 2018. I was in position for another fantastic chase day. No nader... but I had some excellent structure before she went outflow dominant east of Smith Center Kansas. It was definitely worth my time that afternoon. (BTW I spelled dominant wrong in the video...lol)

Would you like to see this image without the water mark...Click Here
Forming storm cells in northern Buffalo county, and moving slowly due south. You could see the sufficient cloud to ground lightning firing off every few second as I was driving north, right under base of the storm. With the low cloud cover there wasn't much of a photographic oppertunity I had to move south again.
Sitting right on the western outskirts of Kearney, I was out of the low cloud cover, clear skies to the west with this approaching storm cell was almost to good to be true!
This was one of the few times I had the opportunity to capture lightning this past summer of 2016. Lightning is tough to capture the way it is and I'm still learning techniques to do better. I would say these captures came out better than expected.

I didn't get many snaps, but I did have a few opportunities.
I had moved south to intercept the cell that still had a tor warning on it. Though it had lost size and strength it was still producing a decent wall cloud.

Late August and I wasn't chasing this day... In fact I was preparing to head out to the east coast to catch up with Hurricane Dorian.
Just few blocks from my home here in Kearney Nebraska with no warnings issued this was creaping in from the west northwest. This thunderstorm didn't become severe until it passed over the city of Kearney. But as it approached... the sky was talking and I was listening...
I couldn't resist! With camera in hand I was out to capture a few hundred pics of what was in front of me. A wicked good photographic Nebraska stormscapes and some epic Nebraska Thunderheads!

Remastered Series.
Another Freak Picturesque Nebraska July Thunderstorm. A True Photographic Storm Monster. Wicked good striations, and the scuds on the bottom of the outflow line looked like teeth.
Another Classic Outflow Dominate Nebraska Thunderstorm! 2011 Month of July has simply been over the top for storm photography. This was one of my best sets for the year.
Just to note...
My old Nikon D50 had some major issues.
Internal Lens was dirty.
It had been knocked over by the wind several times.
Had some permanent internal flares.
Tons of noise in the original captures. A few are little blurry due to the 45-50+ mph outflow winds. I couldn't keep the camera steady. Every pic here was worth it though!
It took long time to rework these images....
True Storm Chasing Eye Candy!
A Nebraska Ground Scraper!

As the first supercell had now moved north towards the North Platte Area. I was in the path of the 2nd storm gaining intensity and severity.
This was a larger complex of developing storm cells and I thought it was going become outflow dominate due to the large bow on radar from the outflow.
Though I would be wrong and this would stay organized and one could say I was in for a treat. Patiently awaiting I had the perfect spot again for this end of the year footage.
I was directly in the notch of this storm. Multi lightning bolts, cloud to cloud and cloud to ground were illuminating the ski every few seconds. Clearly defined cloud structure as one can see the developing wall cloud as it approached my location.
Yes this was very dangerous but this is what I do. Most never will or ever get to see a storm like this. Not this up close and personal as I did this evening. A wicked good way to end my Storm Chasing Weather Adventures in 2019!

Been Waiting since March for a good storm in Nebraska... we have had some but out of my reach due to some vehicle issues. Though just recently this has changed and was able to enjoy this event!
The 2020 Storm Season has been stale to say the least. Though Mother Nature... She would redeem herself this day. Beautiful Severe Warned Thunderstorms, with all the extras. Surreal!
Decided to play it north deep into Central Nebraska that afternoon. Bad road networks and basically no cell services unless you have a booster, which I have. Models that day had it right north of Brady Nebraska then for it to develop and move north northeast. Some of the models had it a little bit further north and that was exactly why I was in the Thedford Halsey Nebraska Area to start.
Though when the storms fired I had a nice TVS warning on this first cell but the storms south which had merged with these storms now and sucking all the energy southward. I had to punch through the core of this first storm to get to the one developing to my due south...The main event for the afternoon.
Epic Nebraska Supercell Structure.... Seeing this up close and personal is what I needed! Incredible defined detail as this cell moved northeast. Directly up from the Brady Maxwell Arnold areas. A perfect viewing point out in the open just to the west of Merna Nebraska.

It was our 1st official storm chase of 2015. It sure was not a disappointment.
Waiting for over 3 hours in Grand Island for storms to pop, they eventually cracked about 5:30pm....Cells were going severe as warnings were just issued for counties to the west of us and this cell was developing just south of Fullerton Nebraska.
Enjoy this phenomenal panorama capture as the cells were just going severe!

Storms were to develop early afternoon but the dry line stalled. Late afternoon into mid evening the dry line pushed just to the west of our location.
With unusually humid conditions for this time of year in South Central Nebraska, this produced the perfect conditions for supercells to develop just to the southwest & west of Kearney Nebraska.
Rarely do we get to see the full development from nothing to a full fledged supercell and this one had fast development resulting in some of my best storm photography for 2012

This storm was moving incredibly slow, building and brew'n just to the southeast of my location.
So much energy out of this developing storm cell to the southeast of Kearney that evening. Every few seconds there would be some kind of electrical discharge. I never had to wait for the next bolt. Just pointed my camera and shot away. Its slow development/movement to the northeast gave me this opportunity get these incredible shots.

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.

Almost perfect conditions for severe weather that day in North Central Kansas and South Central Nebraska. Towers were in full force by 4:30pm and the NWS has issued waring for Buffalo County. Storm cells were only moving at 15mph to the north northwest and it was producing some quarter sized hail.
Got north of the hail core via Hwy 10. It (the hail core) was just dumping on the south side of this storm, so the plan was to move north northwest of the storm and see what I get.
Full fledged wall cloud was developing directly southwest. I had positioned myself to the north west of Pleasaton Nebraska to possibly get that special photographic opportunity.
I truly wasn't disappointed. It was in my terms... the perfect day!

The 2016 storm season is upon us here in the plains of South Central Nebraska. Thought I better get the cobwebs out of the lens and take a few different perspectives.
Nice set of thunderheads off to our southeast. Nice Towers forming over northern Kansas and moving into southeast Nebraska. No chasing this day. Had to work, but this was good for an after work viewing of the storms.

Early August storm cells are usually non severe and with little to no precip. Though the dry air creates some of the best photographic scenarios you could ask for if you love clouds... especially storms in Nebraska.
I had the afternoon off and was ready for that afternoons chase. Camera in hand, and storms moving into northern Buffalo County from the northwest...I was ready to catch some incredible storm captures.
August has always been my month to capture some of my best pics. This set of captures was just the first of many to come!

A late June Storm Chase with fellow SVLMedia Chaser Myles Nelson in the Eastern Plains of Colorado. Which would eventually takes us into Kansas and back into Nebraska.
We never did catch a tornado due the RFD getting undercut. Simply meaning that it wouldn't produce just south of Yuma Colorado via Hwy 59. Once the storm became outflow dominate it was picture perfect. We had made several stops on Hwy 36 Eastbound. Beautiful structure close to Kirk Colorado and south of Wray. Pure Storm chasing eye candy!!!
Once we got into Kansas by St. Francis and Bird City we were loosing light fast but the it was picture perfect for viewing this incredible storm cell.
We had a long drive back after the last light of the day and this storm was to intensify. It did, making our trip back a little more interesting than expected. This part is not on video, but we became the hunted as this storm really intensified. There was so much lighting being fired off we could see for miles and miles as the storm was picking up steam and moving to the northeast. Relentlessly following us on our heals ever inch of the way back we were getting concerned about out safely. Once we turned east via Hwy 89 back into the southwest portion of Nebraska, we came face to face with a Tornado on the ground close to Wilsonville and another possible one north of Beaver City. That was not in the plan for that evening and it definitely got our attention.

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...
This Ominous Shelf Cloud had several cloud to cloud and cloud to ground shots. Lots of positive lighting in front of this cell. It was incredible hard to see since it was misting and then hard rain right before these captures!

Our first true storm chase outing for 2021. Slight Risk was issued for North Central Kansas and eastern South Central Nebraska. It would be expanded after 4pm. We thought we would be in business due to the dry-line was firing off some incredible thunderstorms to our north and to our south. We had pinpointed the dead center of the risk area that is exactly where we ended up...
Crazy thing... it was the Exact Middle of the United States of America... I'm not kidding! We stayed in this area and waited for the storm to fire. We did get what we came for but none of the storms in North Central Kansas went severe that afternoon. They did about 3 hours after we left... figures right...
There will be more storms..

Slight Chance of developing cells along the boundy line here in early May 2015. NWS had us @ a 30% of severe weather. Gear was packed & primed.
Hot & Humid. Nice for early may. 85-90 degrees that afternoon. Small cells were forming to the north and east of the meso discussion that day.
I was honestly surprised to see some incredible cell development, though we only had some small cells with decent hail cores but nothing popped in our area, most of the action was north of Central City, Columbus and Schuyler areas.
Nice to get out though & get some snaps for what is to come in latter May & June 2015.

Humid and the mosquitoes were eating me alive...
I wouldn't have to chase this evening to catch some incredible Nebraska views of this supercell that formed just to the north of Hastings Nebraska. The perfect sunlight cresting against this storm cell was perfect in every way. I knew I was in for a treat. Just a few blocks from home I set up shop!
We had a dying cell to our west creating a beautiful sunset and I would eventually get a few snaps of this. Though was pointing due east from my location on the outskirts of Kearney Nebraska. It had all of my attention. 4 Cameras in position for this event. Pointing due east I was watching these billowing thunderheads on the updraft and it was a sight to see.
I also knew then that this was going to produce come incredible lighting after dark. I was prepared and ready!

September 23, 2014 - South of Ansley Nebraska US
Almost a month since I've been out. Most chasers at this time of year say it way over for storm chasing... However I have a different mindset. For those that follow my photostream here on #Flickr, you know me all to well.
Late season supercell, moving almost from due north to south. Planned and intercepted this cell right at sunset just to the south of Ansley Nebraska. I had timed it out perfectly. This time of year we rarely get storms this strong. We have that 6 week window, where we have the same scenarios as we do in spring here. In this instance it was one of them.
A nice supercell with a wicked good Nebraska Sunset to boot. Who could have asked for a better light & storm setting than this. Almost the perfect lighting as the sun was setting. One of my favorite chases of the year. Not 1 other chaser on this storm. Just myself & the open plains of Nebraska. With a monster evening supercell to boot!

****
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...
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..

Didn't have that much luck that day... though on my way back into southwest Nebraska. I got alongside another developing cell. It was loosing steam but sure was photogenic.
Nice defined outflow boundary, and she did remain severe for about 40 mins then everything just went HP (High Precip) and nothing to chase. Everything started to develop to my northwest and it was out of range. No way was I going to catch up with those new storm cells.
Nothing bad about a bust storm chasing day. There will always be another... In the end.. It was a good chase day.

First moderate risk day of the year out in Western Nebraska. We decided to head out early to catch the action.
Was trying to Twitch Stream (streaming link down below) our chase this day, though my HD camera decided otherwise. Had many technical glitches that afternoon and I'm happy mishaps happen on the first chase of the year. Prepares the next adventure without failure.
First storm erupted north of Grant Nebraska but I was messing around with the live feed and didn't take any snaps... put the problems aside and moved north to Ogallala Nebraska to catch this dying cell.
Not many pics in this set but was caught was worth every second to get out of the house for a few hours!

Next stop was just to the west of Haigler Nebraska. Where there is no cell reception ... which means no radar data and no calls. Had to do this old school, which is fine by me. I didn't have smart phones and or instant data for storms before 1995. Though my partner in training was a little concerned we had it covered!
Beautiful Nebraska Supercell structure impending into our area in Southwest Nebraska. Just over the border from the Colorado state line. Creeping slowly about 14 knots per hour. We would be in position to encounter this tornado warned storm for the 3rd time this day.
Incredibly photographic structure from top to bottom on this cell. With all of our cameras focused on this event, can you say right place at the right time!

Late afternoon early evening storms were on the back of the Low coming though south central Nebraska. This means they were traveling from the southeast and moving to the north / north west. That is not normal for us... usually west to east!
Severe warnings went up and were were prepped and ready. Not to far of a jaunt from home as we ended up just south of the Grand Island I-80 Exit. A few miles south to be exact.
August 2021 has been a gem for storm photography and videography! This was just the beginning of the month!!!!

This particular set..... We were approaching this from the north Hwy 183 south of Comstock Nebraska 8:50pm
I had Extreme Pleasure to have Matt Granz flic.kr/ps/2fL7L5 & Tom Luker that afternoon and evening. Fellow chasers, all of us after another Epic Nebraska Storm Chasing Event! Matt & I met on Flickr years ago... Our passion for Severe Weather Photography is a crazy obsession / passion for both of us. Kewl how FLICKR did this. Now we actually got to chase together for a day... More planned for 2019
We got to the location early that afternoon. Hoping that the action would start early. Though my haunch, or my gut feeling told me it was going to be an evening event. The anticipation was high.
That afternoon we spent west of Sargent Nebraska chasing the developing pulse storms before the actual dry-line emerged. This was just the beginning of an insane night. 3 Night Tornadoes, which I didn't see but was damn close to all of them that evening.
This was was the beginning of an incredible outflow boundary at sunset. The first true storm that evening. It was what were were waiting for all day. A beautiful Nebraska Severe Thunderstorm... @ Sunset
A Nebraska Thunderset....

Headed southeast on some new developing cells. Another HP cell with some small hail.
Right underneath the base of this storm. I had an Incredible view. A few captures of this moment!

Late May ... 2024
A dramatic sky showcases a vibrant sunset beneath a vast expanse of swirling clouds, creating a striking contrast between the illuminated horizon and the darker clouds above. The overall scene conveys a sense of awe and the power of nature.

Another day of waiting... We had storms. Stuck @ Work so no play time today. By the time the end clock rang for closing time...
Anything & everything left over from that afternoon storms were an eyeful of Mammatus Clouds.

Storms were to develop early afternoon but the dry line stalled. Late afternoon into mid evening the dry line pushed just to the west of our location.
With unusually humid conditions for this time of year in South Central Nebraska, this produced the perfect conditions for supercells to develop just to the southwest & west of Kearney Nebraska.
Rarely do we get to see the full development from nothing to a full fledged supercell and this one had fast development resulting in some of my best storm photography for 2012

Lightning is the main reason why I chase storms. I'm fascinated by the pulses of light it produces. So by placing myself in direct line of a nasty overnight supercell... It is what I call FUN.
This was a spectacle of light & storm. Producing Cloud to Cloud Lightning almost every 3 seconds. It was by far the best night time lightning fest of 2023! So Far....

On the Last Stormchase of the Summer. I had to make this one count. First chase in my new truck. I couldn't have asked for a better Nebraska Stormscape Scenario!
Found and open spot just to the south of Merna Nebraska. Had the perfect view and this thunderstorm was talking!
Loaded all the gear out and started my thing. This truly would become one of my best photographic outings for storms in 2020. Glad I made the effort to go. In spite I just had major surgery 3 days before!

We gathered out gear and headed back to Grant Nebraska then south to Imperial. Destination was Hwy 6 and to get far enough south to get back in front of this storm.
We had 4 TVS (Indicated Rotation via Radar) on our way through Grant Nebraska and then to Imperial.
Beleive me when I say it was nasty to drive though it was. Huge hail and wind that almost blew us off the road more than once. But we eventually made it back out in front of the storm cell and headed to Hamlet Nebraska for another Tornado Warning.
What we witnessed was epic!

NWS had the severe weather events for that day were to be about 200 miles to the east of south central Nebraska. Though we still had a risk of severe weather, but with the 100 Temps and lots of moisture to work with... it was bound to happen.
We had got down to south east Nebraska (Hebron area) late afternoon before the storms started to fire. Hwy 136 east would be our target spot when storms were just forming to the south Red Cloud Nebraska.

It was a chase day.... though my luck this year to capture the extreme weather events in Nebraska has been few and far between.
The storms this year have been off and on. High Precip storms than only produce strong winds and mostly some small hail. Good for the communities and the farmers. We need the physical rain for the abundant crops across the great plains of Nebraska.. So I guess I'm not going to complain!
The cells were under a severe thunderstorm warning when I was approaching from the south. Some beautiful updrafts, on these developing Turkey Necks!

Though all of our planning had us hoping for an epic chase day, but mother nature had other plans...
Traveled to western Nebraska to wait for the initiation of severe storms either in the Northeast section of Colorado or where the cape and moisture signatures were predicted for that afternoon and evening. We had our hopes up. The CAP would prevent any development of storms for us that day...
We had to move from eastern Colorado down to Northwest Kansas. Where....Finally thunderstorm initiation started just to the south of St. Francis Kansas. Not many pics from this set but it was good pickens for a bust chase day!
