Storm chasing in northern Illinois 6/12/13

Nice.  I drove down to northern Illinois with my father and got some video of my own as well.  Took me a while to edit it all together.

At around 10:30 we ran into 70 mph straight line wind gusts coming in off the lake in South Haven on the drive back.  We got off the highway just in time.

Awesome photos Frostfern! Love the way the lightning looks in the 4th one.

 

Vivid blue and green colors.

 

Thanks!  I'm so glad I went.  I cancelled my previous plans that day because I figured it would be my last chance at a sig event chase for a while.  My father even agreed to be my driver so I didn't have to go alone!  He met some friends in Valparaiso IN though so it was worth it.  I'm moving back to Seattle in August.

I guess you'll have to find some other types of storms to report on out there. Not a lot of thunderstorms in that area of the country.
