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. |

It's been a very active 2-week period of winter weather here in the US, and I've been very busy with covering it all. I returned from another major trip down south to cover a high-impact road ice event, this time to Alabama. A full account is here:
FULL ACCOUNT: Report: Major winter storm in the Deep South, 1/28
Back in St. Louis, we've had another round of winter events. Friday night into Saturday morning saw freezing rain with thunderstorms in the northern portions of the STL metro. I observed and captured freezing rain thunderstorms in Wentzville on Saturday morning, then a dramatic SUV crash into a streetlight on Saturday night.
More is on the way for us here on Tuesday. This may be turning out to be a long winter, but at least it's been an interesting one.
