Science and Storm Chasing
Advanced weather & chasing
Meteorology discussion by experienced chasers and forecasters. This is the place to talk shop about current events and concerns. DO NOT post in this forum if you are not an active chaser or meteorologist; you must use the Introductory forum instead. Forecast threads and new threads about events that have happened in the past 48 hours are NOT allowed here; use Target Area for that purpose.
