MICHAEL FISH VIDEO ON BBC NEWS WEBSITE - some of my footage is included - at least they managed to edit out the swear words!
I was able to edit video footage on my laptop during the 10 days and upload to Youtube via hotel Wifi/ethernet connections. I hope you enjoy them - click on the underlined white links below to view the video clips.
| VIDEO 1: (1 minute and 55 seconds) | Test video. Travelling out of Dallas / Fort Worth area. Discussion of forecast. |
| VIDEO 2: (2 minutes and 24 seconds) | Another test. Still no severe weather so nothing much to video. Radio range testing, following a school bus and footage of the team including Michael Fish. |
| VIDEO 3: (3 minutes and 4 seconds) | On the road with more witty banter. Stopped for photos at the Oklahoma/Kansas state border. Windmills and "nodding donkeys" |
| VIDEO 4: (2 minutes and 47 seconds) | The team visit Greensburg, Kansas. Nearly one year on from the devastating EF5 tornado that destroyed 95% of the town. Rebuilding is in progress but most of the town is still resembling a war zone. It is an upsetting thing to see. |
| VIDEO 5: (2 minutes and 54 seconds) | "Singalongastormchase!" |
| VIDEO 6: (5 minutes and 14 seconds) | Looking good for a chase today - some footage of the hours leading up to it. |
| VIDEO 7: (4 minutes and 52 seconds) | The chase is on - the cap has broken and storm cells are close by. |
| VIDEO 8: (7 minutes and 46 seconds) | We see a fantastic storm with plenty of rotation and tornado warnings locally. Lots of lightning but no tornado yet :( |
| VIDEO 9: (5 minutes and 46 seconds) | Repositioning to a sweet spot along a county dirt road. Still willing the storm to drop a tornado. Alas it never produced one where we were :( |
| VIDEO 10: (2 minutes and 7 seconds) | STRONG LANGUAGE! Stayed in Independence, Kansas for the night. The supercell we had been chasing left us with a night lightning show. Unfortunately I just about slept through the fierce squall line that passed through at 2am therefore no video of that :( |
| VIDEO 11: (5 minutes and 29 seconds) | A promising chase day - welcome after the down days. Once again we are on the road in search of a storm. |
| VIDEO 12: (8 minutes and 26 seconds) | STRONG LANGUAGE! A raging supercell in the Oklahoma panhandle catches our attention. Still hoping for a tornado to form. |
| VIDEO 13: (4 minutes and 33 seconds) | Continuing to chase the supercell. Then heading off to Liberal, Kansas to stay the night in the midst of the storm. |
| VIDEO 14: (4 minutes and 11 seconds) | We check in to a hotel in Liberal, Kansas during the height of the storm - which continued for a couple of hours - here is footage of the lightning and rain. |
| VIDEO 15: (8 minutes and 47 seconds) | Another day, another chase. Successfully bagged another storm east of Lubbock. Fantastic CG lightning and we also punched the hail core. Alas a tornado proved elusive once more. |
| VIDEO 16: (9 minutes and 33 seconds) | Final real chance to get a tornado as we chase a classic supercell in the Sherman area of Texas. We saw the DOW on the road and a funnel cloud but alas no tornado touched down. |
