Thread: Tornado Warning!!!!!

There is nothing quite like it. Though I do so more for the lightning than anything. I just cant put into words what capturing a good lighting strike on camera does for me. It is super exhilarating and fascinating.

People that win large amounts of money, like in the lottery, buy houses, cars, clothes and tons of other stuff. Quit their jobs and try and live in peace and the lap of luxury. Me, I would have a decked out vehicle with computer gear, weather information and link ups and I would be all over this country chasing storms.

I was using the GP. But its not well suited for it as the ground clearance in some of the areas I end up in is not up to par. I nearly set a hay field on fire last year because of my exhaust.

Before that I owned and used a Ford Focus which was a bit better suited for the job since it was a hatchback and had a couple inches more clearance. Before that, I used a Dode Neon. Again, ground clearance issues resulted in its demise as I bottomed out and cracked open the oil filter and was not aware I had until the oil pressure light came on with the ensuing shut down of the engine.

Now I have the Isuzu Rodeo that once I get it up to snuff and the GP back on line I will probably use nearly exclusively for chasing storms. Lots of room for computer set up and maybe a TV and I can fold down the rear seat and set up a camera there and take photos without getting so wet.
