Canadian 🇨🇦 storm chaser buddies hanging out in the parking lot in North Platte, NE before catching tornadoes near McCook later that day (05-17-19) @braydonmoreso.bsky.social's #Predator. The D3 sneaking up behind us.

Since this is a new account & lots of new followers, I figured I would reintroduce the #BlueMoose. He's my best tool for chasing severe weather. Custom, armoured Toyota Tundra. Have seen close to 100 tornadoes with this truck. #teamtoyota

That time I saw a big tornado near Dodge City, KS as it passed behind a homestead dwarfing it. Home was thankfully spared.

That time it got a little windy 130 km/h (81 MPH) on the eastern part of Lake Ontario. Dec. 11th at Point Petre. These are the equivalent of CAT 1 wind speeds. #BlueMoose holding his ground.

25 years of chasing storms;
supercells, tornadoes, hurricanes, hail, lightning, lake effect snow, floods, wildfire, haboobs, squall lines, blizzards, tropical storms, freezing rain, etc. It's been an amazing and humbling experience to sag the least - Stormgasm!

If we ever top the Wray, Colorado intercept I will count myself one of the luckiest people on earth. The roar was like a Learjet engine, and the preceding calm followed by the sudden 70mph RFD was the most thrilling thing I've ever stood in.

Grand Canyon NP is probably at the top of my hit list for next year. As beautiful as this shot is, its still a consolation prize. But what an incredible experience that week was, and I learned so much. Lightning remains my #1 #wxsky
