This page is my one stop shop for all of my storm chasing a photography adventures! I have been chasing for over 15 years now across Tornado Alley! I seek to find Mother Nature's most extreme weather across the United States including Tornadoes, Supercells, Hurricanes, and much more. I have shifted my focus the last 5 years into the ph

otography and timelapse side of storm chasing. I love seeking out that perfect composition and bringing storms to life by timelapse. Those time-lapses can be found in several films that I've put together annually for those to enjoy - See my Motion V - A Storm Timelapse Film for my latest work!!! All of my work can also be found via my website at www.coloradoweathernut.com OR on any of my social handles down below. All work featured on this page can be purchased for prints/wall displays.

Colorful Colorado!

This tornado warned storm yesterday across Weld County was so fun to watch. The storm was mainly outflow dominant and brought on some unique shelf structure as it drifted South along hwy71. Was fun bringing the family along yesterday. The kiddo got to see her first supercell!

Nebraska High Plains Magic!

Yesterday was quite the day. It started 1350 miles East for my just West of Cleveland, OH, as I was with family. I knew it would be close on timing, but I hauled West 16-17 hrs, arriving in Sidney, NE just as storms were going up. Moments later, our storm latched on a boundary and went absolutely nutz! I got to observe a brief tornado near Potter, then in Sidney proper, got to witness an incredible lightning barrage! Long day, but WELL WORTH IT!

UFO SPOTTED!

This past week I have witnessed some of the wildest supercell structure of my 15 years of chasing. This storm yesterday in New Mexico was on a different caliber. This will be a forever all-timer remember for dozens of years to come. It's up there in the same class as Malta, Imperial, Leoti, etc. I will live this moment for the rest of my life. Incredibly humbled to have been there to witness it.

Haskell Texas Mothership Supercell

Last week, we captured one amazing supercell that took on a classic round mothership structure. It was certainly the highlight of the week of chasing. The lightning from this storm was ferocious. You'll see some of those pictures in due time.

Crazy bolts from yesterday as a large HP (high precip) supercell ramped up unleashing the craziest lightning barrage I've seen in a short amount of time. Before this, the storm seemed to be just idling with nothing much to be excited about. Then, as the storm approached, it must have tapped into some high-end juice because all of a sudden, 100s and 100s of powerful positive anvil and updraft bolts blasted us in every direction. 25-30 of those landed within 1000ft of where we were shooting. The supercell also structured up giving us a night shelf with deep blue/green core and nice striations feeding into it.

CLOSE RANGE MEGA BOLT!

This insane anvil bolt landed only 2000ft away (less than 1/2mi). It struck so fast that it caught most of us off guard. Lucky for me, I was running a timelapse with a slower (longer) shutter speed, trying to catch more bolts. This megabolt certainly photobombed the structured supercell! This is one of the cooler landing point captures I've seen in quite some time! Good stuff!

Finger of God | Arnett, OK - 05/18/2025

For over 7 years since I began my timelapse journey, I have always wanted to capture a timelapse in the vault of a supercell while a tornado was ongoing. I've shot tornado timelaspes before, but normally from the South/Southeast of a storm. Being in the vault is incredibly dangerous as this is not only directly in the storms path, but it's where HUGE hail falls. Without risk comes no reward, right? While dodging baseball and softball missiles, our group captured images of a lifetime that will forever be cherished. I'll never forget this experience. Our tour group was treated to a rare gem of storm chasing. I'm so glad we ended the tour on a bang! They already want more for next year, haha!

Fun chase day yesterday for our tour on day 4!

Its been a rough week with weather basically being non-existent. So happy we were able score a couple land spoots and an incredible supercell structure that had a massive CG photobomb me...at VERY close range!

The Great G5 Solar Storm!!! Part 1 of 4

Were coming up on the 1 year anniversary of one of the most incredible nights of my life! Back on May 10th, 2024, a powerful CME struck earth at a favorable time to allow of the most potent part of the solar storm to be displayed all night long across all of the USA. It didn't matter where you were located that night, if you had clear skies, you likely could see the Aurora overhead or on the horizon. I never in my life thought I would see something of this caliber, especially being in the USA in Wyoming.

This year, my chasing has been extremely limited to just 1 week down in Texas back in mid April. My work schedule and truck maintenance have had me held back from my typical chasing. I'm happy that I was able to witness this INSANE mothership down near Fort Stockton. This storm was a challenge to chase due to the extreme lack of chasable roads and limited cellular data. Glad I was able to catch it at peak intensity before it blasted South into no man's land.

Fort Stockton Mothership!!!

Last week, after finally getting out to start my 2025 chase season, I got a banger of a supercell WAY down in the Souther Plains. The 12-hour drive down certainly wasn't fun, but the storm certainly made up for the grind! At this point, the supercell was tornado warned with an observed tag, and I have a bunch of pictures with a bowl feature buried deep in the core. Definitely was a great way to start off the season!
