You know you're a storm chaser when...

LOL! I also dig those water funnels that form when a sink full of water is emptying. 
If you swirl water down the drain just to see some rotation.

I'll add some...
When your co-workers ask you whats the forecast and give you the nickname "Doppler"
When a relative 150 miles away calls and asks if they are safe from the Tornado spotted in the next town over from them...
You ask your wife multiple time to check that the car insurance is paid and up to date.
You perform dry runs on snow storms.

when shopping for a new vehicle you price out windshields as part of the decision making process

Yeah.. I just bought a new/used car last week.. I used to be a damage appraiser for an insurance co and I know sometimes certain vehicles have really expensive glass for no apparent reason. Like as an example you dont want a vehicle that has a heated windshield, they are typically over $1000

Windshields and Back Windows
I know for a fact that storm chasing in my 2002 Buick Century car would be a expensive decision. My windshield has a black area at the top for a radio antenna. And my back window has a defroster grid, which is very useful on those frosty mornings. Both would be very expensive!
I'm not going to go out and price the cost of replacing these items because I had hail damage on my previous car(s). Once I had a 67 Buick Special that was well preserved since it was driven in a small town and was stored in a garage for five years. A hail storm with golf ball sized hail while I was parked at a laundromat left dents all over the car. A couple of years before that I was in Colorado where we had baseball sized hail that fell out of a storm coming off the Rockies!
