1996 Storm Chasing & Photography Logs, Photos & Videos

By DAN ROBINSON Editor/Photographer

1996 was still very much in the early years of lightning and storm chasing for me. I was living and going to school in Montgomery, West Virginia, a mountain valley location that did not lend itself well to views of storms. I was also without a permanent vehicle, making any chasing outside of town impossible.
