I finished posting the chase logs and photos for 2010…I haven’t posted any chase videos post-May 31, but for now you can see the best of my videos (with sound, unlike the YouTube clips) on my chase DVD, “The Whirlwind And The Storm“. 
I’ve still got to get around to finishing up chase logs from 2005 – 2007, but there aren’t very many of them so it should go quickly once I start working on them again.
I’ll have a few website tweaks here and there by the time the chase season rolls around, and I’ll try to keep more up-to-date with 2011 chase logs and photos. Here’s to a successful 2011 storm chasing season!
Just got to get through another pesky snowstorm that could bring another 8+ inches of snow to central Oklahoma again tomorrow….

I’ve posted chase logs and photos on the website for June 14 (north Texas shelf clouds), June 15 (east Texas Panhandle thunderstorm), June 23 (north central Oklahoma / south central Kansas thunderstorms), June 24 (southeast Colorado thunderstorm), June 25 (southwest Minnesota supercell and squall line), and June 26 (east South Dakota supercell and squall line). Check it out! I’ll be posting more of these soon.
Also, I started a new blog today (www.greenskychaser.com/wxdiscussion). The focus of the new blog will be on describing and discussing current weather and weather forecasts on a national to site-specific scale. I expect the blog will morph a bit before it really finds its feet…it may not always be as reader-friendly as I hope this blog is, but it’s more for me to make a practice of putting down my rambling thoughts as I look at weather maps and models.

In other news, the semester is almost over…so I will soon have some much needed time to spend working on web improvements (including new chase logs and photos) and to post more frequently on the blog. It’s been a pretty crazy semester, and I’m looking forward to getting some time off!

The National Weather Festival, an annual event at the National Weather Center in Norman, Oklahoma, will take place tomorrow from 9 am to 1 pm.
I’ll be there with my chase car (entered in the storm chaser car show), and I’ll also have a booth inside with DVDs, prints, calendars, and T-shirts for sale. I’ll also have some free pens and storm chasing brochures.
I’ve been spending a lot of time preparing for this lately, hence the lack of blog posts this week.
Between the demonstrations (e.g., balloon launches), tours of the building and research vehicles, storm chaser car show, prizes, booths with weather info and vendors, etc., the National Weather Festival is always a lot of fun. Last year I believe there were around 5,000 people who showed up!
Here’s a link with more info: www.nationalweatherfestival.org
As an aside, there will also be fireworks tomorrow night in Norman, as part of a Vietnam Veterans’ celebration. These will be the fireworks saved from the 4th of July, after that fireworks show was rained out.
