Give me a description of what a storm chaser does! Least 3 points?

Question

I need a description of what a storm chaser does and other facts

Answer 1

well, one thing is that they take advanced camera's and put them on a road on about a mile away from the tornado. then the camera is held on the ground and as the storm passes over it it collects data.

second, they try to predict the pattern of a tornado. if they are able to so they can get the wind speed and warn and inosant by standers.

Answer 2

a storm chaser pretty much just drives around. most of chasing is hot, boring driving while living on gas station food.  once in awhile, if they've done the forecasting right, and haven't gotten lost on the plains, they will see some serious sh*t.  on a perfect day, a chaser will look at weather data, decide where to go, get there, intercept the storm, photograph the storm, and NOT get pounded by 2 inch hail on the way back home.

storm chasing isn't all about tornadoes. if a chaser goes out expecting to see a tornado, they will be bummed out about 90 percent of the time, even if they're out in central oklahoma on a moderate risk day. a true storm chaser is stoked on all aspects of severe weather, where just hanging back and watching a storm develop (tornadic or not) can be just as cool as seeing a twister itself.  there are also chasers who are into things like hurricanes, blizzards, lightning, etc. some chasers do it for money, like a tour, or for footage that can later be sold to tv stations. some do it for scientific research, like the guys that try to drop measuring probes in front of tornadoes (which takes serious balls). some do it alone, just because they love to.

there are some sweet sites to check out that will make your jaw drop.
