6.17.09.day1otlk_1630EXTREME instability and ample shear are already in place across portions of the central Plains, setting the stage for today's severe weather episode across the moderate risk area. Supercells have fired early over southern Nebraska and are tracking east toward Iowa and Missouri, and as a result a tornado watch has been issued for that area. Any storms that do form in the areas of greatest instability will be capable of dangerously-large hail in addition to tornadoes and damaging winds! Chasers are already tracking storms in the area, so remember to follow along on the Live Video tab!
Click "READ MORE" for video from June 15th in southwest Kansas!
Also, check out Dick McGowan, Darin Brunin and Mike Parker's video from June 15! This is the same tornado that TVN intercepted with the SRV and RC Super Hauler! (Video of the intercept is still to come, as there have been issues with a malfunctioning computer!)

I agree i see the stream but add popups kinda of a hassle

I see Reed is by Hastings,Ne. Thats about 40-50 miles from where my parents are (Geneva). I'm just hoping they don't get hammered. I heard there is a good possibility of strong to severe storms in central Kansas tomorrow? Can anyone confirm that?? I'd appreciate it.

You can click the little (teeny tiny) x in the right-hand corner of the ad to make it disappear. ;)

Storms popping up across south eastern minnesota, most of the cells are tornado warned, havent heard anything confirmed, just radar indicated... its exciting, first really severe weather outbreak for MN, we've had a quite spring and early summer

I'm talking about the banner ads on the bottom and top of the chaser map. The ones that appear on the videos are okay. It's just the one specific credit reports canada ad that's doing it (it literally takes up 99% of my cpu cycles no matter what PC I'm on so I can't do anything).

EDIT: MN storm is just absolutely spectacular on radar.
Apparently this thing already dropped a tornado in MN, recently. Someone on storm track has commented there are cars on roofs....

Looks like twistex had either a gustnado or a close range tornado on the ground... Great hook on that cell with good positioning... Rapid rotation on that wall cloud... Awesome stream.. Good job!!!

The NWS has apparently issued an emergency for Aurora NE... It's pitch black and the spotter network shows a lot of people on the storm.

Additionally a new storm has formed in Iowa which is now producing a very strong tornado. Anyone have a stream of it?

@MDH... Did you see the "classic" hook on that cell earlier? BTW.. Thanks for the CTV link... Great stuff... Looks like the IA and MN area is going off!!!

Looking forward to getting back out to chase.. Its been a stellar year for us... Looking forward to the Dakotas as soon as I return to the Colorado base in a week or so..

Great job to all of you streaming.. Verne C... You are the man... You are all over it.. Keep up the good work!

My cousin was chasing that storm. The tornado was 5 miles west of Aurora,Nebraska, and damaged a farmhouse. Unsure about any injuries.

I have never encountered that myself but that is something we need to know about - thanks. I'll let the tech people know about it.

This afternoon, (Wednesday June 17), the black rain clouds rolled south, it hasn't rained here in about 2-3 weeks...
Anyway, I saw a bunch of swirling clouds above my house... sorta like "wind eddies" I guess. I live in a sorta tri-river valley/mountainous city... Kamloops, BC Canada...
...well, nothing more than a bunch of wind resulted, followed by rain... I did use my digital camera to record this fun.
I've never seen a tornado in person. I was hoping to catch one to film.
But, maybe it's impossible for this location.
