As most know by now, I do a lot of volunteer work in the ocean activism community when I’m not storm chasing in Tornado Alley. I was in Otsuchi Japan (Iwate Prefecture) on March 11th, 2011 monitoring the slaughter of Dall’s porpoises for Ric O’Barry’s Save Japan Dolphins and standing just a few feet from the water on a man made pier in the middle of Otsuchi harbor when the M9.0 earthquake hit.

I uploaded some video of the Campo Colorado tornado event to our YouTube channel yesterday, enjoy. I do apologize for the language, but people do tend to get excited in the back of the storm chasing tour van. This was shot by a customer (Scott M) which I’m thankful for because since I’m in the front, and in this case driving, I missed a lot of it myself – so it’s great to be able to see the tornado from our customer’s perspective.

I’ve decided to add a few new photos to the image gallery. Just as a shameless plug – I do sell the photos with a variety of frames and printing options, if you see something you’d like to hang on you wall – contact me!
