Another compilation of past storm chases including a couple of "so close I could taste it" would-be tornado intercepts, except I did something silly. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fM46...

Next compilation of what had been mostly "throwaway" footage from the many chase days where the tornado shot eluded me. Note the NOAA wx radio audio ambiance in much of this footage. It takes people to maintain these transmitters and that's all I'll say about that. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dR_y...

Making some compilation videos of all those chase days where I only got a few minutes of footage; maybe an ominous gust front, couple of cool lightning bolts or just some photogenic billowing convection. This one spans from 2013-'15. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkQe...

Tested some vintage ceiling fans with @dspiffy.bsky.social on this day 10 years ago. The early days of what became something of a tradition which would eventually involve several other fan collectors/enthusiasts from around the Midwest.

Ten years ago OTD, 2/11/2015, one of the very first ceiling fan test videos I did with @dspiffy.bsky.social, and the first in the attic of his "Organ Shop" in Oregon, WI, the go-to venue for these until his Ellen Ave. condo garage and then The Metal Barn. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fVO...

One year ago today, when the dewpoint was something like 48. Okay atmosphere, you've made your point. Anything goes.
