Are there any aspiring storm-chasers or meteorologists on here?

Question

I am just passionate about the weather and I think that tornadoes and hurricanes are just awesome! As long as no one gets hurt of course. I am an aspiring storm-chaser/meteorologist and I feel like the only one so I would like to know if there are any other people on here passionate about the weather or this field?

Answer 1

Believe me when I say, there are plenty of us here. And by 'us', I am referring to people who are passionate about weather. It was really nice when Freight_Train, Water, 1ofSelby's, and Mr. Weather were very active on here, but there are plenty of other people that can answer your questions.

Answer 2

I am. What would you like to know?

Answer 3

Totally!  I have had a love of weather since first hearing about tornadoes (I'm talking about being a kid with maps on my wall and marking severe weather on them and then being on the computer all summer- well, the NWS site!)  

I will soon be attending a meteorology career.  I know I will be in this career.  It won't be like work- it'll be my passion and it'll be fun!!!

I'm glad to see that other people are on here like me.

I love weather!!!

Oh my gosh- I have a different mail account (with aim or google or something) and it's windstorm909!  That's funny!

Note my user name- Follower Of The Cloud.  It's true- I like to chase and take pictures of clouds.  Not tornadoes, clouds.

Go weather!!!!!!!!!

Answer 4

Hi Welcome.  There are several of us on here.  I am a meteorology student and there are a couple others on here most of the time.  There is also a couple meteorologists on here.  Look in the top 10 on the weather section to look for all of us.  We are here to help you and others.  

Answer 5

Moi aussi!  I have been fascinated with tornadoes since I was in one at age 7, and I wanted to be a chaser long before the movie "Twister" made it a fad.  I was one of the many weather geeks there to see it on opening day, critiquing it: "Tornadoes don't act like that!  Where's the rotation?  Where's the wall cloud?  Where's the mesocyclone?  It's prnounced NESS-el!" etc.
