    💬 OT 🤬 what made you say FUCK today?

    Made arrangements to pick up an item on Craigslist. Agreed to meet at the persons house and informed them it would take me an hour to get there. Person never answered the door/ wasn’t home, stopped responding to emails and the ad is no longer there. Sucks I wasted 3 hours of my life and gas...

    Nature's Fury, Massive Tornado

    Sometimes yes. It’s like a big competition to see who can get the closest, most dramatic video so they can sell it to news stations.

    First X-Flare of this solar cycle

    Never seen it this high before. I went about an hour north into Wisconsin and got a band on the horizon but nothing special. Came home and it really blew up. My wife was out taking pictures all morning and it never really got good here. People in higher latitudes like northern Wisconsin got a...

    That was a bust. Looks like the cme just hit and was weak. Good thing I only drove 2 hours into Wisconsin

    I had my lawn dethatched, aerated and overseeded about a month ago for less than it would cost to do myself. I hope I see a big difference next year

    💬 OT So its raining right now.....

    I went out chasing last week. It was one of the craziest days all year. Supercells kept popping up one after another. I started out near Kirkland and started watching a wall cloud. I was just getting out of my car to grab my camera out of my bag in the backseat and see a funnel cloud. As soon...

    Aviation Picture Thread

    I went to an air show a few weeks ago. Has anyone seen the f35 fly since they hired a female pilot? Holy afterburner the whole time! She puts on an amazing show. They also decided the Chicago air and water show will be Blue Angels only

    💬 OT So its raining right now.....

    I was out with a veteran storm chaser and we started to head to Bloomington to wait for the storms coming out of Iowa. Then the ones toward Indiana blew up and my friend wanted to go after it. I kept saying no way we would make it. It's at least an hour and a half. Got past Dwight and stopped...

    Florida Keys what to see/do?

    We stayed at the floridian in homstead almost every night. It was $52 per night. We drove to the keys every day. It was about a 4 hour drive. Sone of the things we did was go to Turtle Hospital in Marathon. Was interesting to learn about all the sea turtles. We also went to swim with the...

    💬 OT So its raining right now.....

    In defense of the NWS, all of the model runs were off the charts. All of the ingredients for strong, long track storms were there, only the clouds didn't move out as fast as they thought. We went to our Target area of Galesburg, then decided to go into Iowa. When we were in Iowa, storms blew up...

    So this happened

    After 3 years of trying with one loss, we finally welcomed Noah on Thursday January 23 @12:30 pm. 6lbs 11oz. Due date was the 25th, but the doctor wanted us to come in early to get induced because she said his body growth was 2 weeks behind his head. We went in Tuesday to get induced and he...
