    Fantastic!! I’m sure all the compliments have been given but I’ll pile some more on if that’s ok with you! 😊 First, the visuals are incredible. With a great zoom and some distance we got really amazing close shots and from a distance the structure shots were also incredible! Next, the audio. THANK YOU for letting us hear it!!! No yelling, no musical accompaniment - just letting us truly join you in the experience. I’m a new sub and hope to be able to ride along with you guys again sometime. Again, THANK YOU!!! 🙏

    Im from California and I have family in Iowa, Des Moines and Waterloo area. I never experienced weather in CA like there is in Iowa. My mom used to say tornados will not strike between the fork of two rivers.....well thats not true. Our lightening is a couple of strikes and then its over. In Iowa it goes on and on, and then being glued to the TV watching for tornado warnings and watches...your storms scare the crap out of me.

    At times, it looked like the wall cloud itself tipped over onto the ground. An "isolated" wisp of RFD "scud" would blossom, in the wink of an eye, into a vortex attached to the general circulation. Some heavier bits of debris would "aggravate" the surrounding air into generating yet another vortex. Some vortices would lay down on the ground, to become long-lived horizontal vortices. This just has to be one the more mystifying beasts that you've yet chased.
