In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. 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. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field. |
I went ahead and logged a chase report with a few more photos from Wednesday (click photo below).

Upcoming weather roundup
Tonight's model runs are trying to give me some hope that my 'no more winter weather' suggestion I made a few days ago won't be busting utterly. Our temps will definately be cold enough to support snow Saturday night and Sunday morning.
However, the precip forecasts show very little in the way of QPF for this time period. Just some flurries/a dusting in the mountains is all that's showing up at the moment.
Some heavier precip shows up for Saturday evening, however - but temps should be warm enough to keep it in liquid form in our region. The kicker is a timing issue - if the precip arrives a few hours later than expected (after temps drop), then we could be dealing with a dusting of snow and icy bridges on Easter Sunday morning.
Earlier this week, the models showed that the upcoming Monday and Tuesday did seem to hold some potential for snow, but the latest model runs are keeping all precip well to our north into Pennsylvania. After that, we are shown to be warming up to the point that frozen precip is less likely later in the week. All in all, the forecasts for snow/ice in the coming week seems very conditional - that is, no very strong signal for measurable precip and subfreezing temps to coincide. As always, that can change with time, so it's still something to monitor.
As for that huge trough for the end of the month I mentioned a couple of times recently, the GFS has toned it down a bit in recent runs. It's still there, but not quite as amplified and not nearly as cold at the 850mb level.

So could we really be done with winter? If we can make it through Tuesday without a dusting of snow, just maybe....
