Hot, Humid and Thunder Approaches. Nice thunderstorm cell just to the north of Broken Bow was sliding south into South Central Nebraska.

Gear packed and ready rumble, I slid north via Hwy 10, which was under construction. I didn't remember this when I left that afternoon and it would eventually push me out to the country roads of Northern Buffalo County Nebraska.

Severe warned and producing 3 inch hail. Severe winds were also a factor. It was a good photogenic storm to capture.

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!

What was an Epic day of Storm and Sky on the Eastern Plains of Colorado.

We had a late start to get to our destination of Goodland Kansas that afternoon. Though with that said we did see one Landspout / Tornado just to the south of Burlington Colorado. Of couse we would have luv'd to see some of the naders about 100 miles to our west but we didn't plan this one out correctly to do so.

Bumped into Legendary storm chaster Danial Shaw from Down Under... as he pulled up next to us shortly after we got there. I pretty sure he caught what we could see south of Burlington up close and personal.

Storm went outflow dominate as it squeezed its way into northwest Kansas. We ended this days chase between St. Francis and Bird City Kansas.

Well, I had a long drive back after not catching anything of value. Actually, I was pretty much upset with myself. Didn't plan anything correctly that day. So I just wanted to make the best of what was not.

Fortunately, storms were cresting to my northeast on the drive back. I had the chance to pull over a few times to capture the incredible sunset and skyscapes of Kansas.

After a quick jaunt south we headed west from Grant Nebraska. 2 storms, 2 different supercells were merging right upon us. What a sight to see..

Incredible structure on both of the storms as the were slowly moving to the south southeast. We would soon though be in a tornado warning as we 2 defined areas of rotation on radar detected. We had to prepare for large hail and damaging winds!

They were on their way!

August 8, 2014 - North of Odessa Nebraska US

Mother Nature gave me the chance to get some of my best images for 2014.

This supercell was at first a very slow mover moving southeast about 9-10mph before it even reached northern Buffalo County. I had to work late and I was considering not to even go out. Though as most of you know, I couldn't resist.

Some of the best shot of the year for me in this set. Most of these captures were north of Odessa Nebraska US, and some in the city limits of Kearney,

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!

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..

Mid August of 2016, and we had our share of storms, there were some good ones. But I had fallen ill and this would be last that I would get a chance to photograph, at least for that month of 2016.

Strong thunderstorms were developing from the southwest and moving almost due north northeast. Utilizing the city lights to paint the sky, I was able to capture all of the cloud to cloud lightning illuminating the interior of the storm.

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

I have had several jaunts this year down to Kansas from South Central Nebraska. This would be one of many. We had a moderate risk day, and things were looking good for a good chase day. Though I had time restrictions, and had to work again at 11pm that evening.

Though I work overnights and only a few hours of sleep that morning. I had been invited to ride along with with owner and friend Nathan Moore from StormViewLive.com. I wasn't going to miss this opportunity. We have similar interest and we both love to chase. It was to be a good day.

The day was a hoot, though the storm chase would turn into a bust... We really didn't miss out. Storms just south of Russel Springs Kansas were firing, but due to my time restrictions we didn't get to the cells we wanted to chase that day. Though this didn't limit my ability to take a few good snaps from that afternoons storms.

On the hunt again for severe weather. Little did I know that this would be my last chase in August 2019.

A strong developing system of storms were predicted that afternoon for western Nebraska and eastern Colorado. Though this was the first storm of the day to become severe and we were already in route.

I-80 Westbound towards Ogallala Nebraska the mammatus clouds means good instability and when they show before the storm I know that this means a good chance for what I'm looking for.

Hanging out the window for a few shots as we were on our way to intercept this first supercell of the day!

It was approaching 12 hours chasing locally that day. Now over 800 captures from that afternoon. I have to admit I was tired...

It didn't make a difference... if it was photographic I was bound to stay out long enough to get a few good shots of the newly developing storms to our southwest. They were firing off a ton of cloud to cloud lighting.

I was only a few blocks from home, so I deiced to stick around to end this storm chasing day in a great way.

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.

I was close to this developing cell and I knew this was going to produce a nice base outflow. All the elements were in place. I got right along side as I raced this cell north.

We had another moderate risk day, as the sky was again talking to me. Best of all this was going to be a local chase day.

The storm cell I was chasing most of the day had weakened and the boundary for severe weather was to my west. I had to get north and east via Hwy 36. Ended up parked just south of Phillips Nebraska.

Now, right at sunset, this cell was maturing and we had an approaching hail core coming right at us. Last shot of this storm before the quarter sized hail and the torrential horizontal rain! Incredible colors as the sun was trying to peak through the hail core!

I was in the perfect position to capture another severe weather photographic treat....

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.

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.

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.

Gems of Gems!!

Mid May ... 2024

Dramatic clouds loom over a serene lake, reflecting the sunlight peeking through an opening in the sky. A wooden fence runs along the bottom of the photo, adding a sense of tranquility to the impending stormy atmosphere.

*** 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.

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.

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!

A late June Storm Chase with fellow 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.

Dark storm clouds loom over a rural landscape, casting dramatic shadows on the countryside. The dirt road leads the eye toward the horizon where the storm intensifies, creating a stark contrast with the green fields.
