This page lists all of my tornado intercept days from newest to oldest, with links to each expedition report containing more photos, videos and detailed accounts. Most of these images are still frames captured from video footage. For high-resolution stills, view the tornado stills gallery page. I have stock footage of these tornadoes available at the tornado stock footage page. To answer a frequent question, I have seen a total of 153 tornadoes. I also have an article answering the question How hard is it to see a tornado?
