05-08-2008 Hodgeman Co., KS (video) - This was probably the best looking set of storms for me this year. If I was even half the photographer of other chasers out there, I would've had some amazing pictures. I really thought this storm was going to produce a tornado. I think my best video shot came towards the end with some really close call lightning. I played around with some time lapse stuff for this video, just to give you an idea the amount of rotation within the storm. Absolutely breathtaking cannot describe the views I had this day. Even with no tornado, I would chase stuff like this a hundred times over.

I posted highlight videos from my last 4 chases at www.stormchaselive.com. Look in the "Video Archives".
