Hi,

My name is Brian by night I'm a maintenance supervisor for a liquor distributor and by day I chase severe weather in Massachusetts between naps that is.

I participate in Skywarn for NWS Taunton, MA on the amateur radio side. The call sign for NWS is WX1BOX and my call is W1KBA. For 2010 I'm going to start shooting video hopefully catching a tornado. I have been saving my pennies to take a trip to the midwest for real storm chasing. It probably won't happen this upcoming season but if all goes well 2011 season.

I had the privilege to meet Reed and Chris last month at a weather confrence here in MA. I also got to check out the DOMINATOR and all I have to say is it's AWESOME.

I have been trying to understand how to use the radars and other tools provided by NWS but not being a meteorologist makes understanding the radar somewhat difficult for me.

Anyways thanks for taking the time to read my blog and hope to talk with my fellow chasers soon.
