Heading west to chase. Hoping I can snag a birthday tornado today!

Tornado-warned storm near Cologne, MN

Lowering on the storm east of Lake Mills, IA

Severe-warned storm near Owatonna, MN. No tornadoes yet☹️

I’d like to chase again today because “never stop chasing”, but I am so drained from getting nothing rewarding this year that I have almost no motivation to go chase it. Knowing that there’s a 90%+ chance of seeing nothing again doesn’t help

I had a little change of heart this morning and decided to go for it. Nearing this rotating storm currently over Delavan, MN

The radar+the view

Sitting here in Morris, MN awaiting storm initiation!

Beautiful supercell near Gary, SD. Just had a large tornado a little while ago, please do it again I’m begging🙏🏻

The most intense tornado intercept of my life thus far near Gary, SD 6/28/2025

Since I started storm chasing in 2017, I’ve always dreamed of witnessing a photogenic, slow-moving stovepipe shapeshifter. 2 days ago this dream finally came to fruition near Gary, SD. This day will live in my memory forever.

Here is the unfortunate moment when the Gary tornado directly impacted a farmhouse at violent intensity. Thankfully everyone in the house survived. The jet engine roar is very audible in this video.

The fact that my only tornado of 2025 happens to be the tornado of a lifetime is pretty wild, still can’t believe I was there for this. So thankful I was.

1 week ago today. Gary, SD 6/28/2025

As long as Gary remains TOTY and doesn’t get surpassed, I’m happy😂 But man what a legendary year for the northern plains it’s been🔥

A day in the life of a storm chaser when not chasing storms🛩️ Any other RC pilots in #wxtwitter?
