From Dan: How the crime of copyright infringement took $1 million from me and brought down my business.

I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. This page is a detailed account of the biggest threat to my photography and video operation that I had to battle daily to just barely survive, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem facing all of my colleagues as well.

Charleston saw barely a dusting Tuesday afternoon with round one of this New Year's snow event, but more is on the way. Beckley was reporting thundersnow during the early evening, so while keeping a cautious eye on Charleston, I headed up there to see what I would find.

I encountered some extremely heavy snow on I-64 near the airport, slowing to 25mph in white-out conditions with only the guardrail to mark where the pavement was - but I saw no lightning. Back outside now for the next round of snow in Charleston, slated by all of the models to start any moment now. You can watch the snow accumulate here on the StormCam live feed.
