Watch a short Video of that afternoon on Flickr
Finally severe thunderstorms moved into South Central Nebraska for the first time this year. That was a looooong wait. Yes the rest of the state has seen its fair share of this but my home turf has seen very little in 2023. Rain Yes, Severe Weather No...
Storm was weakening in these final shots of this series. Beautiful light cresting against the back side of this storm made for some perfect "Eye Candy" final shots of the day!

36 Years ago, with a peaked curiosity, I dove feverishly into the world of storm chasing and well, the rest is history. Fast forward a few years and my current journey in storm photography & videography has unlocked a completely new life that I never imagined would exist. Oh how my adventures continue...
Mother Nature definitely orchestrated her magic on this first storm chase of the season. Warm front had positioned itself right over the state of Nebraska. Pulling in all that warm moist air from the south created the perfect conditions for severe thunderstorm development. I was on the hunt & wouldn't be denied this day.
I got to witness 3 very sculptured Supercells that afternoon.... This was Supercell #2!!!
Was just east of Wilcox & the dirt roads hadn't been rained on yet. (I usually don't travel them anymore if they are) to watch this 2nd Supercell develop.
This is where most say I'm just simply down right nuts.... I had to get closer.
I've done this so many times I don't get nervous at all. Simply stating. I know what is safe & what is not. If you want the good pics / video. You gotta get into the action... but do is safely. Again Storm chasing isn't for everyone. But for me its what I do best!

Well... It's a Start...
Mother Nature only came to play in our area for a very short time. Was expecting a much better scenario than just 1 picture. Though I know the hype when it comes to severe storms. I'll be patient. My time is coming!
So my first capture of 2022!
Better than Nothing!

I had a few hours left before I had to be at work. Sun was setting and I made my choice to follow this storm cell north... or should I say catch up to this storm again. It had significantly gained speed & strength, and I was no longer in good position for storm pics.
I had to back track to Lexington, then north on Hwy 283. Stopping briefly, capture these incredible mammatus clouds forming in front of the storm. I was under the base of this developing cell and it was producing some incredible Nebraska Skyscapes!

Boiling afternoon temps... was a relief when the the cloud cover finally covered the sun that afternoon. From about 103 to 85 was a welcomed relief. I would be in the thick of it soon.
This monstrous storm system was creeping in from the northwest. As I got closer, or as it approached... it was from horizon to horizon.

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 the reason why I got into storm photography. It has taken years of practice to capture it without a lightning trigger. Patients is the Key. But when it happens you have to be ready. It doesn't stay around for very long.
Had the equipment locked and stocked. Knew the storm was coming and wala... It took til August 2021 to do but finally some incredibly good and wicked lightning!

Early season storms here in Nebraska are simply surreal. The epic beauty that surpasses the sunset's ability to crest its light against the ominous position of this storm that evening.
Sunset cresting into twilight with a huge anvil (Cumulonimbus Incus) approaching from the northwest into South Central Nebraska.
I had way over colorized saturated other things to this original set of images. So I went back & took the raw images back to their original color templates & remastered them back to the original color specs of the origin image.
I only had a few of these published when I posted them back in 2017. Here is the entire set reworked!

Lost the last light of the day... Slide back into the city limits to have the city lights paint the sky. Best way to get the low level light to work for me!
Sporadic cloud to ground lightning. More so the cloud to cloud lightning was illuminating this shelf cloud & underbelly of this storm. It was a fast mover so not many but a few gems to close out this night.

3nd Chase of 2017...
Another early April moderate risk day in South Central Nebraska. Which would turn out to a bust. Storm really didn't fire till after sunset.
Waiting for the instability to fire the storms. Was in the right place, just mother nature had other plans. This particular cell was just building and didn't produce anything but some scenic cloudscapes....
Some nice Nebraska Storm Eye Candy to tide me over till the storms that evening.

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.

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.

September was still hot & humid within the wide open plains of Nebraska. The drought this time of year is normal. The heat is not. Was lucky to get this lone storm that afternoon.
The winding down of the storm season is right on time. We did have a few night storms with some good lighting. But my time is limited this time of year. Was only able to get this event.
A photogenic storm was what I need & what was received that afternoon. It was the last storm that I chased for 2022.

We had to pack up and move south via Hwy 283 South then Head due east of Hwy 89. This route takes us though Beaver City, Orleans, and eventually just north of Alma Nebraska.
Now just north of Alma Nebraska...
We didn't allow us much time to find a suitable spot for us to the base of the storm.
We had limited time when we stopped. Storm was approaching fast from the southwest. Where we stopped I wasn't considering how high the corn here in Nebraska in late August. We didn't get a choice to move. It was now or never. So we stopped & set up fast and got with I could with 4k @ ground level.
It was our best structure of severe weather 2021. Defined Meso... Eye Candy Structure.... What more could we ask for!

Wasn't looking forward to the 3 hour drive back home. What was left of the storm was a HP mess. I sat back for about 30 minutes and let the rain push east. After I got my bearings, I was headed east.
Sun was setting. I was under the perfect light conditions. Back side of the storm, via Hwy 6/34. I couldn't have asked a better photographic opportunity.

We didn't allow us much time to find a suitable spot for us to the base of the storm. A few things to note here.
When we chase, SAFETY is the number 1 thing that I stress to the individuals that chase with me. I have to practice what I preach.
We have to find a safe spot to pull off and get the pics, vids Once we make this choice to pull off when always include a EXIT plan before we stop. (Chasing for all these years, I've learned a very valuable lesson. Never stop unless you have an open an safe exit area when chasing severe weather

Couldn't have timed it out more perfectly as this still had some good definition to it. This cell was about overtake my position so I took as many snaps as I could.
Funny thing was... I had several people stop by & say Hi... About 7 people and 10 cars all stopped to watch the show with me... The sky was talking....
Final Shots of the afternoon as the storm to my east gathered some rotation & was passing just to the west of the city of Kearney. From my POV you could see a nice wall cloud form as storm moved almost due southeast.
2" Hail core was coming in quick. Had a few last shots before it decided to unleash its power.

The day wasn't over. Went home downloaded all the images video & charging all the equipment...
Late evening... about 10:30pm ish I had alerts set up for counties to my north just in case we had storms develop. Oh they did...
Weather Alert alarms were blasting warnings. Grabbed my gear and caught this crystal clear nighttime supercell off to the northeast of Kearney.
All those storms from earlier that afternoon made the sky crystal clear & perfect. Cloud to cloud ⚡ was just popping out of these thunderheads. It was the perfect opportunity to do what I do best!

Now back in South Central Nebraska... We were about to experience the strongest outflow boundary of the year. 110-120 mph winds were accompanied by this super strong beast. Tons of cloud to cloud lightning and beautiful arcus shelf cloud structure was beautiful view as she approached from the southwest.
Now moving almost directly due east we had to jimmy south to Alma Nebraska from Hwy 89 to get back in front of this monster. Believe it or not, the calm before the storm was evident here. No wind until the shelf came over our heads and then we got hit hard. Luckily we had gear already prepped and put away as headed north as soon as this hit our location.
Though you know me... I waited till the very last second to get these captures!

This cell was really taking good shape. It was tightening with visible rotation. Plus with both storms now centering in on my location, I had to either get packed up and move to another location farther south or stay here just take in the show.
The road network isn't the best for making fast moves south due to the Interstate & Platte River less than 3 miles to my south. Next exit was about 4 miles to my west & that would have put be right under this storm.
The finial decision was easy. I was already set up & was going to stay the course til it forced me to leave.

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.

A few hours after sunset the first of the storms were entering our area from the due south southwest. I wouldn't be exaggerating if I said that this storm was gaining strength as if crept slowly ever so closer.
The amount of cloud to cloud and cloud to ground lightning was excessive. Excessive & Impressive. The video from this night says it all.
Enjoy these captures from this evening. Some of the best lightning I've caught in YEARS!

So far....
After that epic afternoon in Wyoming catching that Nader... We had cells that were moving into Western Nebraska via Kimball County, and we were way to far away to catch up to from the south.
We had to get to Scottsbluff to intercept these next 2 cells that were merging and would go on to produce a tornado south of Scottsbluff. No speeding and safely getting us to the east of Scottsbluff towards the city of Minatar Nebraska.
Pointing my camera to the southwest, I decided to get some incredible panoramic views of this tornadic supercell.

A serene night sky is illuminated by a bright moon and scattered stars, casting a calm glow over a peaceful landscape. The horizon hints at distant lights from a hidden city beneath a starlit expanse & approaching thunderstorm.

It was our first photographic storm of 2020. Usually in April I've been out in years past chasing the storms several times by now. But due to the Covid19 Pandemic and Old Man Winter sticking around way to long. This so called 2020, beginning of our storm season has been non fruitful for us weather observers in South Central Nebraska, let alone the state. But this is all going to change over for us fast here and soon we will be in the midst of our severe weather season.
It was good to get out. As I for one have been staying home and doing my part in stay safe and healthy. Plan on staying that way. Though cabin fever overcame my need to stay home. Prepping correctly. We made a small and safe jaunt to North Platte Nebraska to get out first taste of some Nebraska Thunderstorms....

Late May ... 2024
A vast field stretches into the horizon under a dramatic sky, with storm clouds dominating the scene and warm, vibrant colors illuminating the edges. The interplay of light and shadow creates a striking contrast that highlights the approaching weather event.

A massive, swirling supercell storm cloud looms over a flat rural landscape, casting dramatic shadows and creating a vivid contrast against the fields below. The sky is a mix of dark gray and lighter hues near the horizon, possibly indicating an approaching storm.

It's what best describes the next month and 1/2 here in south central Nebraska. Not many good storms to chase. The dry season came early, which is laughable, because we didn't get any spring storms this year either. I did get one good photographic beast in early July but that series of images is ... coming soon!!!

Torrential rain, dime sized hail, were just part of what we received when the storm caught up with in Norton Kansas.
We packed up and headed east via Hwy 36 to junction 383. This would position us again in front of this storm cell. Again tons of cc & cg lightning were still accompanying this growing severe warned cell.

Most of you know, if you follow my photostream, I'm a lightning fanatic. Since I work overnights this year, it has been extremely hard to find the time to do so.
After a long day of chasing, we made it home late afternoon. Right before midnight we had another developing cell with a good lightning display. Though when I finally got set up, the storm was weakening and and I only had time for a few captures... It was worth it... just for these few.

Lost the last light of the day... Slide back into the city limits to have the city lights paint the sky. Best way to get the low level light to work for me!
Sporadic cloud to ground lightning. More so the cloud to cloud lightning was illuminating this shelf cloud & underbelly of this storm. It was a fast mover so not many but a few gems to close out this night.

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.

The storm chasing day was coming to a close. I had a few hours drive back home and I had to leave a little early to make sure I made it back before I had to work.
Just a few miles south of York Nebraska, these rebuilding storms cells were just calling me to stop and get a few snaps.

I caught back up to the emerging cells, right at sunset. I couldn't have asked for a better performance!
