When I first got into chasing I was told 'Chasing at night is a big No No'. I have chased locally at night but only if I am familiar with where I am. I am not a big fan of driving at night anyway especially in a thunderstorm . Around here deer are a threat more then the thunderstorm. I have almost slid into a ditch during the day on a curve once so daytime is tough enough. Not to mention when you punch a core. At night as you all know it is far more dangerous. So the question is do you chase after dark or not and in what circumstances might you not or might you chase? Lately it sems like a lot of the action this weekend was after dark thus hiding any great shots of storms structures. If I was there I doubt I would have ventured too far after dark being in umfamilar territory to begin with. I dont know. Safety for myself is foremost even if I miss a twister. I am interested in hearing any thoughts on nightime chasing. Be safe.
 
Thanks Mike.. I was looking for a previous thread and obviously missed it..
