Believe it or not, I am still functioning and I am paying some attention to my web site.\u00a0 I chased for practically all of May and most of June on the Plains (as tour director for Tempest Tours, tours 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6), and got back home here in sunny SoCal on July 2. \u00a0 I am going to begin posting images very soon, so check the May and June 2008 sections for new stuff.\u00a0 The digital images will be up first, and slides will have to wait to be scanned.\u00a0 I can’t do everything at once.<\/p>\n
I suppose I should mention how the chase season went.\u00a0 It was VERY busy, as the pattern was good to very good for the most part, with only one down period in mid-May. \u00a0 There were storms to chase nearly every day.\u00a0 Tornado-wise, I would say the season was about average for me.\u00a0 For May and June as a whole, it was not a bonanza period for photogenic tornadoes on the Plains.\u00a0 It seemed that there were plenty of fast-moving tornadoes in the woods early in the spring.\u00a0 There was a great three-day period from May 22 to 24 in OK and KS, and June was relatively lame tornado-wise.\u00a0 I saw about 18 tornadoes, but most were distant and or weak and brief.\u00a0 If you were a chaser and you missed out on the May 22-24 stuff, then it was likely a difficult year.<\/p>\n
Okay, time to look at what I shot and to upload!\u00a0 Remember, to see my images for 2008, find the May 2008 and June 2008 sections, and then click on the individual entry dates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
