storm Chasers

I have not chased any because we don't get that sort of weather here. But I do take pictures of lightning. We get loads of lightning here in the rain season. I would like to see a real tornado in action and would also like to see the force of a hurricane, as long as I come out of it not getting killed or hurt! Have you chased any of these storms?

My aunt is a professional storm chaser. She's been doing it for twenty odd some years. When I was in jr high and high school. I use to chase storms with her on my spring break and summer vacations. Saw a lot of cool things and a lot of devestation. Makes you appreciate weather a little bit more. That's for sure.

not to chase them but i like to watch them on tv!

I we did during Katrina .WE seen that the homes on the water were gone before the surge.We out in the middlw of the surdge breaking a damn that was makeing the water start to come in the back of our home no water JUST sewage.I was there the next day as they were throwing bobies out from under the debris that had not made it. I seen the loss in everyones eyes.I felt the helpless waiting on help to arrive because the were so worried about new orleans to think about us in Mississippi.The damage here was from that damn katrina not from some leeves breaking.and people sitting with there hands out.We have work to repair our homes and cities.and have done a damn good job so far.

yaa ofcourse i like to get a chance to face against the rain its storm hurricane etc.i dont know what will happen afterwwards,but simply like to face it.

great picture by the way .. druscilla u look really good in ur pic too .. i bet it must be difficult chasing storms in that outfit ..lol

chasing tornados and hurricanes is awesome .. it doesnt rain much in this part of the world .. iv heard florida is struck by lightning ver often and is also prone to storms .. is that true ?

My brother is into this somewhat, or was before becoming a dad. I don't get it though. We live in an area prone to tornados. I don't think it's wise to second guess mother nature which is what you have to do to be a storm chaser.

I wish I could. I would love to be able to see a tornado or hurricane but from a far of course.

NO, I HATE THEM BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE INTERESTING AND IF I KNEW I WOULD BE SAFE DOING IT I PROBLY WOULD LOL

NO, I HATE THEM BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE INTERESTING AND IF I KNEW I WOULD BE SAFE DOING IT I PROBLY

I am definetly not a storm chaser. I like to be inside where it's safe and dry.

That would be an interesting job.

Would if I could....here the lightning chases you...lol

WOW YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY OPEN-MiNDED. I WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO DO IT. BUT THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE STREGNTH AND THA WILL TO DO IT - MORE POEWR TO THEM. I LOVE TO WATCH EM UP CLOSE ON TV THOUGH, ITS PRETTY NEAT!

No I don't like to do that. I love storms if I am indoors, at night. Love to sit with a blanket around my legs, a cup of hot tea or coffee, the window with the screens/curtains drawn on one side (so that the lightening doesn't blind, if sitting facing the window, but some flashes are sometimes so strong, if close by that you could get momentarily blinded), maybe reading or watching something, my family huddled close, my youngest son with his head on my lap or his mother's lap, all of us speaking in hushes, just huddling close, no fear of storms in me though. Maybe a small lamp, or in the dark.

no i fear them i dont hav such a courage to chase them

no, i think its crazy
