Backyard chasing with Freddy McKinney last night in Shelby, Nebraska while John McKinney was actually out covering this storm from Grand Island to David City, Nebraska. @FreddyMcKinneyR @jmckinneywx1 @NWSHastings @NWSOmaha @spann
A ghostly tornado danced north of Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, earlier this afternoon! This tornado was on the ground for only a few moments, but it certainly put on an incredible display of supercell structure! #wiwx @NWSMilwaukee

Big thank you to @TwisterKidMedia for the invite to tour the SPC today. Very insightful visit talking to everyone there and learned a ton about the forecast and outlook systems they base operations on. Was also cool to hear their perspectives on controversial outlooks both past…
Incredibly blessed to be part of this group out here. I thank them for countless memories and good times. I’ll miss y’all so much! ❤️
Today was a little impromptu going away party as @DLScalesWX leaves full time chasing after the next 2 chases. DL youre gonna be incredibly missed, its been a blessing to share the storms with you. Grateful to call you a friend. Life has been so much better with you in it man.

In the wake of last night's devastating tornadoes in North Dakota, our hearts are heavy. The shredded trees, most stripped bare by violent winds, stand as silent witnesses to the fragility of human and animal life. We mourn those who left us too soon, taken by storms that spare…
We are okay. I’m not going to share details but please pray for these people. The two people we picked up are okay.
Awesome
