4/9/2005 McCook Nebraska. I hooked up with legendary storm chaser Dean Cosgrove today to chase with him this weekend. Not much happened today but were getting into position for tomorrows big chase in Kansas and Oklahoma. Here are some photographs from the road.
I love this part of the country, wide open spaces and scented country air… Ok, the wide open spaces are cool but the smell in some of the towns, well, that just is rank… Off to get some rest to see what tomorrow brings. Could be a decent day of storm chasing down here.
4/05/2005 Out storm chasing and ended up in a hail core. I ended up getting pounded by a lot of hail and got it on video.
