Storm Chase Forecasting, From 4 days to Realtime! How it's done. A McCook Tornado 2019 case study.

- How does someone go from a weather map 3+ days out, take time off work/school, and eventually film a tornado or collect science? This is pretty much how it's done. Watch storm chasers spread out across the plains looking for the best place to catch a tornado on a day that produced BIG TIME.
What happens next: • My 'Chasecation' 2019 ...
A synoptically evident tornado event unfolded in Kansas and Nebraska. In other words, this was an event we could see coming for days. But even that doesn't guarantee Tornadoes. So to catch them, you need to sniff the dirt and know what the storm is thinking. J/k! We use Science! What do we have to work with and how do we interpret that data? That's what this video is for.

Just now discovering your channel. You,Skip Talbot, and Pecos Hank are my three favorite storm chasing youtubers!
Thank you so much Noah! I'm a big fan of Skip and Hank and they are even better in person. Those are huge shoes to fill and I'm flattered.
same!!
Dryline down to Guatemala is the best thing I’ve ever heard
Love the pre-event and during-event analysis and narration. Can tell a ton of work went into putting this all together and it was really worth it!
THANKS!!! Trust me, hours! Unfortunately as I get 'faster' at this I tend to complicate things too.
@@memphischance9731 I also Binged InstaPwn (didn't want google to track me) and followed the instructions but I am stuck. What did you do after the wait-for-girlfriend-to-fall-asleep-and-user-her-finger-to-sign-into-phone step? It's asking for her birthdate, do you happen to know what that would be?
Some of my favorite memories of chasing are the night storms, tucked up in a motel, outside on a patio watching night thunderstorms sweep across a town with lightning sparkling all around...rain on pavement, and just the "smell" of a thunderstorm in general....//
Regardless of what others say, tornadoes are an endlessly complex and deep natural phenomenom. Everyone's fascination with these monsters, from Ph.D experienced professional to the unsuspecting, unedeucated "person on the street, is fathomless and capable of, "tickling" us crazy--nuts!
It's the most awesome entertainment there is! However, it's also the most-- necessary‐- science, there is: just see the tragedies from loved ones' deaths to suddenly destroyed life savings and dreams!!!!
All levels of goverment, WASTE, endless sums of money on hiring more and more bureaucrats and wars, while tornado research, including the armies of chasers, scream out for more, so necessary, funds!!!!
This is the first time I've watched your videos. "More power to you!".
Tornado chasing is just such exciting fun!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a well done video! As a complete surprise, I also appear to be in it (standing by my RAV4 at 18:00). I thought I remembered that sign!
Awesome glad i could give you a cameo! And thank you!
I slept in McCook that night before, headed up to North Platte the next morning, and got too eager to intercept a fast mover slightly to the East.... spent the rest of the day trying to get towards McCook. And that's how I blew McCook. Still makes me feel like "Uggh!!"
Still makes me mad I spent 4 hours in mccook but drove south to meet a storm that wouldn’t tornado until Mccook.
I'm living inside that new great lake. Hopefully things continue to dry out. Many places are still underwater along the Missouri. Throughout this summer Tornado series, that lake is just going to get biGGER. What happens next: czcams.com/video/LBlSbutRg14/video.html

CZcams took too long for this channel to surface. Love it
Wow this type of storytelling narrative with chases is so fun to watch! Thank you for creating this. I’m so excited for a good chase season this year
Thanks for this video, inspiring me to maybe get into this a little more.
Love this video! May 17th was our first plains chase so this is of particular interest. We had a nearly identical view of the tornado at 19:22 and I recognize that muddy goat path that led to Farnam. Thank you for putting this together!
You are very welcome and thank you!!
3:09 as an Iowan LMAO c’mon man, I just want some supercells over here.
I’m in Iowa right now wishing the same thing today. Many doubts!
Hey! I like your music choices.
Great video! Keep these up and I’m sure you’ll get way more subs! You remind me of skip Talbot and pacos Hank!
Thank you so much! I can’t think of a better compliment. They are great guys in person too.
Great video, really enjoyed the production!
Thanks for watching! I learned a lot on the Ghost Train ;) i miss it!
What an awesome day. I was positioned farther northeast near the warm front. I actually saw the McCook tornado from 27 miles away! Measured the straight-line distance on google maps. It's not as exciting to not be close, but hey it's a new distance record for me.
My furthest was a Tornado the southside of Aurora, CO that I saw from Bennet, CO. Almost 50 miles away!
@@scienceoutthere Dang! I thought my record was impressive...honestly though, I'm going to continue doing everything in my power to not set new distance records haha
@@DanRoss11 lol. Same.
Boy would I love to see pecks hank make a 30+ Minute storm chase of him doing a full experienced chase so us viewers could pretty much be on the ride with him.
Ethan Plog Id be down for that.
Nice great lakes sticker on the rear window. What part of Michigan you originally from?
All over. I’ve lived in Kzoo Saginaw and near GR.
@@scienceoutthere grew up in a little Podunk town north of Bay City in Michigan's smallest city, Omer.
Small world guys I wish I lived a little further North in Michigan but I'm currently in the Dearborn/Detroit area. Although it is a good spot if you need to drive south out of state because of how close it is to I-75.
@@Zappappappappa Southgate area?
This Tornado was Rated as an EF-2 by hitting a farm. Also Reed Timmer Pecos Hank and More Pi was there.
I’ve watched each of their videos. Hank and Pi are subscribers! Also Reed got pink eye. Lol.
So how did you predict that tornado near Dodge City Kansas exactly when the NOAA had lower probability in that area? Whar did they miss that you considered?
SPC was lower probability, but the NWS Dodge City forecast office was pretty bullish there would be tornadoes. I really wanted to go down there, the model guidance hinted some epicness that could happen and several chasers did in fact bite on it and scored big time. Perhaps the tornado of the year. I wasn't ballsy enough to go with that option. I've used that "south a long the dryline" option before and have been burned a few times.
@@scienceoutthere I went on a tour and I was wondering why our guide took us there as compared to Nebraska. I am an amateur but I've been trying to learn and understand what our tour guide was looking at exactly to choose that. I appreciate your feedback and videos.
@@JohnnyH71983 That guide was ballsy! Great pay off. I would have traded McCook for that Mineola tornado. Great catch!
What's that phone radar app you had on screen
RadarScope
Lol is that difficult over there in the U.S here in Germany you only have two fronts with thunderstorm action, the coldfront and a convergence that are the only fronts that produce
Hallo! In the southern and midwestern US you can get tornadoes with far less “moving parts” but yes on the high plains where the photogenic stuff happens, the EML or “cap” is an important part, as well as the dry line and when it all works right like happened here, lots of “pretty” tornadoes, or very intense ones. Prost!
@@scienceoutthere Thank you for the answer, yeah here in Germany you have many Thunderstorm lines, a single supercell that moves hours is very rare. most of them are embedded and the tornadoes are mostly rain wrapped, its more like the dixie alley outbreaks here but with not that much twisters and the terrain is better. In most of the "Outbreaks" here the cap is very little.
Iowa doesn't exist anymore
What's an Iowa?
