So what do storm chasers do when the weather is horrible (that is sunny with a light breeze)? They drive around and take artsy photos of anything that they can pass the time with. I snapped a few shots of a wind turbine in NE Kansas last week and made this composite image from them.

The weather pattern as of late has been horrible for storm chasing. We actually went through 8 days of May without even a convective watch from SPC! We saw a low pressure system come in from the Gulf of Mexico over the Florida panhandle and drift to the WEST into the Missouri Valley – it’s almost as if the Earth started spinning backwards. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel – the long range models are hinting that things will be getting back to a more ‘normal’ pattern during June. I hope so!
