Storms of 2008?

[Mark Farnik]

Greetings everyone,

I am going to ape Brandon's above request for the footage for my chapter. As you may or may not know, I have taken on the role of chapter editor for May 23rd for the Storms of 2008 DVD.
If you have footage you would like to contribute footage for this date (which I know many, many of you do) please send it on DVD in .avi format or on a MiniDV tape ASAP to:

Mark 'Storm' Farnik
1070 S. Dahlia Street #F42
Glendale, CO 80246

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or concerns.

I sincerely look forward to going through everyone's footage and creating an awesome video tribute to this amazing chase day!

I'll go ahead and echo the appeals for footage by Brandon and Mark, though for the March 2 chapter, and am especially interested in alternate perspectives of the tornado near Watonga (right now I only have mine). Please PM me if you have footage you're willing to contribute, and I'll give you details on how to send it to me.

Thanks!

Same here....I have one submission for the June 7th chapter of the Chicago tornado (Andrew Pritchard...I still need yours also). Without submissions, this chapter will need to be dropped due to a lack of content. I saw about a lot of chasers buzzing around northeast of Mason City, IA that day so Someone must have something.

**PLEASE PM ME ASAP IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO CONTRIBUTE**

Thanks!

Bill

Hello All

If anyone has video from May 24th that they would like to contribute to the Storms of 2008 DVD, please mail it to me ASAP. Send it on DVD as an .avi file or on a mini DV tape to...

Brandon Ivey
521 Stoneridge
Valley Center, KS 67147

Thanks in advance!

Greg McLaughlin and I have some truly AMAZING video from this event. We have HD and SD (VX2100) video. Since the HD files are so large, I am going to copy everything over to a hard drive and mail it to you.

I'm in need of some radar images from Tennessee on Feb. 5th (GR3 or otherwise). If you have any that you would like to contribute, please PM me. Thanks!

There is a place in the NOAA site I believe called the NCDC (Correct?) that has radar images for any event. If anyone is looking for radar images and can't find any that is one route you could go. I am not sure if it is free though.

Thanks Matthew, I do have the link for the NCDC website. I was really looking for GR3-quality images. I have heard people say that I should be able to use some kind of data from the NCDC to access GR3 archives, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do that. I am pretty sure I have the data code that I need, but I don't know what to do with it.

I really need video from chasers who were out May 25. Minnesota, or Kansas stuff would be great if you have tornado video. I already have some great land spout video from Kansas this day. I know there were others out. Please contact me if you are able to help.

Thanks!

Go over to the producers/contributors board or PM John Wetter. He will hook you up with any GR images you need for this project.

regular update somewhere on this thread?

Is there a way for someone to be the focus for posting the dates and who has sent something in for each date? This could be regularly posted on this thread so people don't have to keep searching all over the place. Just thinking

I don't know if there is a section for 6/3. I have possible video I could show from around Kansas City regarding that day.

If there is no tornado during the footages, are they still possibly used (lightning , hail , structures etc)?

Is there a page with a layout of the content that will be added in the storms of 08? I'm pretty sure myself and my chase partner have alot of video we could contribute...such as the Earle, AR tornado from 5/2/08 and the multiple day outbreak from May in KS/OK. Can anyone direct me? Thanks.

May 10th Tornado Video-

If there is an editor for May 10th, I have some great professional video of the McAlester Oklahoma tornado. I would be happy to send it in what ever format you need. Total time is 15 minutes, all tornado....and one funnel at the same time over head....a few minutes of walk thru damage. Have radar feed and live interview with a News 9 meteorologist while its on the ground and post event. Let me know.....it was the same day as the Picher Ok. storm...just a few storms south in a line.

There's a forum with the information you're looking for at:

You may need to sign up for an account to access the forum, though--I don't recall off-hand.

I'd like to ask anyone who is contributing to the Feb. 5th chapter to please try to get me your footage by the end of the month if possible. Thanks!
