8/1/2004 AM Just waking up and getting ready to go out storm chasing and the storms came to me!!! Got a hail storm in Burnsville MN. Now were heading out to storm chase the big storms this afternoon.

I had to shoot some video for The Weather Channel this afternoon so I was not able to get out to chase the storms by Sioux Falls SD, but I was able to get to the storms by Blue Earth County, near the town of Madeila, MN.

Out Playing Weather Channel Videographer Again But This Time, I Take Full Advantage Of The View From Home.

Then it was off to the races to get into downtown Minneapolis before the rain started. Traffic SUCKED but I made it for the rain. It was a case of the Have’s and Have Not’s In Downtown Minneapolis. That’s People With Umbrellas And Without Umbrellas… Guess They Should Have Watched The Weather Channel Eh?

7/28/2004 Out Playing Weather Channel Photographer Videographer This Afternoon. I guess you could say it was a rainy but good B-Day present for me since it has been very dry around Minneapolis, MN for a few weeks.

Last night I picked up a new 8 Mega Pixel Sony digital still camera and had about 30 minutes to figure out how to use it before I had to head out the door to chase some more space weather.

Just got home from yet another storm chase and hunting down some more storm video for The Weather Channel. The lightning and hail was kind of lame but the wind was Hella Cool. I got into some Hurricane Force Winds In Renville County Minnesota that just rocked the truck and trashed on the corn crops in that area of the state.

I tried to get some sleep but the storms re-fired this morning and I was able to shoot some cool lightning from home this morning. I love my new home with the perfect view!!

I was also out shooting lightning video for TWC this morning in Fairbault, MN.

At home in Minnesota waiting on the storms, not much is happening so not much to talk about.

Up chasing up north for some lightning.
