October 13-14 storm setups
|
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. |
Thanks to a lack of instability, the upper system moving through the central US was a bust for storms on both Saturday and Sunday for much of the lower Midwest. I did not see a single flash of lightning on either day. On Sunday, I was originally optimistic due to clearing skies and the very strong wind fields in place. Winds were mostly unidirectional, but had a slight turning in the low levels that I felt that the overall strength of the flow could compensate for, if given some instability to work with. I headed out originally planning to go northeast to Champaign, but upon seeing the instability not taking off like I wanted through the breaks in the clouds, I stopped moving east in favor of meeting the line of showers just to the north in Taylorville. The line of showers had just enough of an arcus to warrant pulling over for a couple of shots, but that was it for the day.
