Yeah, it's definately exciting on the actual in-the-field part. I'm still trying to decide if I really do want to go back to college for meteorology or if It's going to be like my automotive interests getting burned out from working on crap cars all the time.Here's a vid of one active day earlier this spring when I had to get out and didn't have anything else to use, so mom's Aerostar became the steed for the evening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOtS8lE7DX8 
Also, some more random pics of being out and about:

Tornados scare me....im afraid one will take my s13 one day. Or my house O.O I figure if one ever comes....ill hop in the s13 and get as far away as possible. If my house gets destroyed i can live in my car.Speaking of hail we got some wicked *** hail a little over a month ago. I thought my house was falling down , and after about 5 minutes it looked like it has snowed all day.

Last year we had a hail here in LA, the ice was the size of a quarter. I was scared they're gonna mess up the car. Luckily, nothing happened.
Can i say FUCK THAT SHIT??

Not really. I've recently made the decision to cease all upgrades for the S14 for likely the rest of the year aside from what I have stockpiled to install (which is a decent amount) and maintainence. I'm saving for a frontier that will serve as my daily as well as chsae duties... something I won't be afraid to take near hail  I too am elated at just the thought of spring storms arriving.

i have always wanted to do the whole storm chasing deal, but we don't get too many tornadoes in sofla. but i have had experiences with hurricanes rather often, either in a truck or on a fourwheeler while there's 120+ winds going on. that's an experience. but one was hurricane irene though. got to take the johnboat out in the neighborhood, considering the roads were under 2-3 foot of water.
