If it is out of the ordinary you know where to find me!
A normal atmosphere is no fun! Bring the extremes! Battle of the elements is the greatest show on earth.
Find me on YouTube from the field!

Get to do this all again Monday! My main interest will be the southern end of shown threat area. Potential isolated supercells is good enough for me. All hazards threat possible around the all important word "if". Might as well go ahead and schedule the next YouTube live stream for Monday.

Focus on Texas.
A low end tornado risk will accompany this system as it pivots across the region tonight into tomorrow and possibly into early Friday.
There are limiting factors involved. Isolate strong/severe storms will be possible during this period with low end threat of all severe hazards.

Might get a chance to fire up the old YouTube channel on Saturday. It’s in my backyard and what’s to come, especially later in the day, could be conditional. In other words, if certain conditions are met, it could be somewhat interesting.

All that ended up in the final cut was my walk-through when I worked on a commercial for Visa Cash App with "Shaboozey" (center screen under the hat) and Elizabeth Berkley (waitress).
As is always the case; everything one does many times does not end up in the final cut. Oh well....it's the job.

Saw a meteor last night around midnight as I was traveling. When I first saw it, it then disappeared but then I saw it again as if it had gone through a layer of clouds or something. At least this camera caught most of it but did not really show the trail.

Purposely waited to revisit the Atlantic invest. Once had a 90% prob of development...look now. Thank the Saharan Air Layer for disruption.
Still keeping eyes on the Gulf/NW Carib later next week and beyond. Undisturbed bath water. Nothing pops out at this point. Just keeping watch.

Red is dead! Much too often. I have an idea.....well, I've had this idea for years. Perhaps someone that matters may think it is not a bad idea. Could it be as simple as 1, 2, 3? By the way, I've seen an EF3 (rated) out there when radar only showed a blip. I must sleep now!

I can never forget this day 8 years ago as I stood upon the very ground that Hurricane Harvey would make landfall just a few hours later and the days of flooding issues as a result of it.

I’m in the city where an inch of rain can cause flooding. I’m not here to watch tropical downpours. I don’t like it here!

Just wanted to check in on Hurricane Erin this morning. Looks to be nearing the gate of a CAT5 (157+MPH) and current forecast is calling for a peak of 165MPH with associated gusts up to 200MPH later this evening.

Anyone on this severe storm southwest of Fairbanks, Alaska? Just asking for a friend.

A few night shots attempting to grab nice structure on a day with little to no severe threat in central/southeast Texas.

A severe weather outbreak is pretty much imminent today across portions of Texas and Oklahoma. Possibilities include tornadoes, extreme wind, or derecho, and a possibility of hail up to 5 inches in diameter. A volatile environment, indeed!

Active pattern continues with threats across a wide swath of the central and Southern Plains. Today I’m going to watch some conditional scenarios across west Central Texas. Live stream scheduled for 4 PM CST.

Wet microburst just west of Rosebud, TX today.
Debris, in the form of a large piece of tin obviously ripped off a structure narrowly misses vehicles traveling westbound....including myself.
