The #Hawley, #Texas Tornado, one of the tallest tornadoes I’ve ever witnessed. Unfortunately, this tornado was a destructive one that destroyed homes.

Spent the majority of the day organizing files and combing through footage from last year. And all I can say is what a wild ride it was, and 2025 looking just as crazy.

70+ tornadoes last year, 3 Hurricanes, Solar Eclipse, and Amazing Auroras.. Can only imagine what 2025 will bring!

BEAUTY & THE BEAST: Watching one of the most violent tornadoes I've ever witnessed move away after countless close encounters with this shape-shifter of a beast. This is the EF-4 Shawnee, OK 2013 Tornado as it crossed I-40.. Viewed from the Southeast over a serene canola field!

Enjoying this beautiful evening before the Polar Vortex invades Oklahoma the next few days with temperatures below freezing for several days straight and some snow!

Name a more #Oklahoma Duo.. I'll wait!

This was west of Custer City as this supercell prompted a TORNADO EMERGENCY back in May.

WEDGES \______/…. Tornadoes that are wider than they are tall. A sign that a tornado is VIOLENT in nature and can have winds exceeding 200mph inside these beasts! What would you do if you saw one of these??

The majority of these storms will not reach severe limits... But, with enough instability under an Upper-Level piece of energy (added lift), a few storms could become strong enough to produce a brief #tornado.

DARK STORM⛈️raging over a field of Sunflowers 🌻. This storm dropped 5” hailstones (SIZE OF CD DISKS) over O’Neil, #Nebraska earlier this year!

Pretty easy to see in the temperature data where low clouds hung in today and kept temperatures down, forecast was for 60+F in OKC metro area. Kind of amazing to me that low cloud forecasting is still such a challenge given all the progress I've witnessed in 35 years in meteorology.

Mound City, SD back on Aug 28th as it appeared as a massive wedge (a slight hill in the way made it seem like a violent wedge). Shock and awe happening here... #TornadoTuesday

The Stephenville/Dublin #Texas “Mother of all ships” back in 2015 was an absolute unit of a storm. Never got to fully stop to enjoy this beast as it was dropping SOFTBALL 🥎 Sized Hail on us!!

MOMENTS BEFORE TOUCHDOWN: Heading west on Highway 9 towards Lake Thunderbird east of Norman, OK. This was the structure moments before we topped the hill to see a developing wedge...May 19th 2013

Trying a new type of edit! Not gonna lie, this has the PERFECT #ThrowbackThursday edit!!

The Ominous Shawnee, #Oklahoma EF-4 the day before Moore 2013! I will always argue that this tornado was just as violent as #Moore.

The El Reno/Yukon, #Oklahoma as it first touched down, just after sundown back in May. This was one of the LOUDEST #tornadoes I have ever heard! The jet engine roar it had with tentacle vortexes!
