First Time's a Charm
Well even though this was my first time chasing, I traveled over 5,400 miles in only 10 days! Luckily I got to see my first tornado in WY of course on June 7th. Most of the chasing I do however is locally in Northern IL. Here are my top ones:
I'll start with the June 5th, La Grange, WY tornado. I got to this storm about 15min before it produced a tornado and got a good 35min of footage.

Good day all,
Not much for me this year thanks to Ridge '09 in May so I'll throw in some limited pictures from June 09...
Above: Storm on June 7 near Maysville / Oregon MO.
I can't quite tell...but it sure looks like that red truck is mine. What road was that taken on? Wouldn't that be ironic!

Here are mine...
June 14, 2009 - Wall cloud 6 miles West of Hanover, Indiana (didn't produce a tornado).
September 20, 2009 - Severe Storm dropping at least 4" of rain in the area, this is on Highway 62 looking south between Charlestown and Jeffersonville, Indiana.
September 26, 2009 - Storms with strong winds coming into Palmyra, Indiana from the north with a tornado look a-like. This had no rotation, even had a fellow weather friend verify on radar over the phone. I just had fun watching this, so erie. Produced some nice lightning.

That is a really awesome photo. It's cool how the return strike followed the exact same path but only with a few "feet" of difference. Like the ion trail shifted with the wind in that fraction of a second. Really cool stuff.
