Tornado! Jewell, Iowa tornado from yesterday. At different points the tornado went from a fully condensed cone, to a small drill bit corn munching tornado and finally monster tree eater. #iawx #tornado @NWSDesMoines

Storm incoming! By Parkersburg, Iowa. Well see if this storm can drop any tornadoes. Looks more like a blob/ wind event right now. #iawx

Today will go down as the craziest weather day I have ever covered in my home state. Gambled east in the open warm sector / modifying outflow regime ahead of the PFT/cold front and it paid off in the form of numerous large, damaging, but photogenic tornadoes in central Illinois.

Tornado yesterday around St. Libory, Nebraska. Got on this storm early which cost me getting close to this storm due to falling behind a little bit. There was some rain on the south side, making the tornado hard to make out. Not all tornadoes will be up close visible tornadoes.

Rainbow Lighting! Crazy to think I filmed this 6 years ago somewhere in Oklahoma. I’m still in awe of how that bolt struck perfectly right in the middle of the rainbow. Truly a once in a lifetime capture!

Wow, what a week of chasing it has been. Seeing tornadoes 3 out of 5 days and in 3 different states is crazy! I am grateful for the opportunity to chase this stretch of storms and can’t wait to chase the next setup. #mnwx #iawx #wiwx #tornado
