Still shocked about how quickly the supercell near Luttrellville, VA on 4/3/2024 went from elevated to tornadic. Rapid rotation to a funnel cloud right below it. Still haven't seen anything like this since.

A look back on June 26th, 2023. KLWX radar was down and I had to chase without viable radar data other than skewed data from AKQ. I somehow caught this wall cloud in between Madison and Charlottesville lol.

For this first time ever, I actually fear I may get rights taken away. Trumps removal of federal level LGBT and gender protections has huge implications for the future.

Disappointed in my peers and family who voted for him and claimed they didn't know. He ran on this on the national stage.

Reed should be held accountable legally for doing shit like this. Unacceptable behavior and pure disregard for road laws that are meant to keep us all safe.

2 years of shit like this, a handling needs to be drawn somewhere.

(2 separate cases where he ran reds intentionally yesterday)

Dont think I've ever released this, but here's a supercell near Williamsburg, Ohio on April 2nd, 2024. This would remain unable to produce a tornado, which I question why given the surface was clearly unstable in this region.

My first real chase I had to drive 8 hours for.

I like playing with phone camera apps that somehow produce better-looking photos than the default camera app on my phone. Somehow, I suspect that's due to the lack of "AI Beauty edits" that phones now force through their default apps.

Of course, I could be barking up a dead tree.

The trailer home that suffered minor roof damage from the Luttrellville, VA tornado has been completely replaced.
This is how poor the Northern Neck of Virginia is, it's actually more reasonable and affordable to just replace the manufactured home than repair the damage.

I wish places would just upkeep their historic structures. This is a one room school house near Pondsville, MD. Completely abandoned and in disarray.
