  • Thrilling tornado documentary from the 2019 tornado Alley storm chasing season and other storms across the globe. Adventurer Pecos Hank follows weather patterns around the world on a quest for the Endless Storm Season.
    2019 was the fourth most active year on record in the United States with 1502 confirmed tornadoes.

    2019 TORNADO INFORMATION:
    In 2019, 1502 tornadoes were tallied in the United states. The fourth most active year on record. With those, there were 42 tornado-related fatalities. May 17th marked the beginning of a historic widespread and prolonged severe weather outbreak. For the first time in the Storm Prediction Center’s history a threat of severe weather was introduced for their entire 8 day outlook (on 14 May 2019). On May 30th the historic tornado streak in the US ended. The previous 13 days all recorded at least 8 tornadoes. In less than 2 weeks, 391 tornadoes were confirmed including 18 EF3s and 2 EF4s.
    2019 TORNADO ALLEY SCIENTIFIC FIELD OPERATIONS:
    Headed by Dr. Anton Seimon, a team of storm chasers including Dr. Tracie Seimon, Skip Talbot, Jennifer Brindley Ulb and Hank Schyma began field operations in Tornado Alley with the objective of gathering near-surface wind field data around tornadoes. On May 28th, the team hit the jackpot near Tipton Kansas. That morning the SPC outlined a moderate risk of severe weather with a 10% significant tornado threat in the northeastern Kansas vicinity. Skip Talbot and Dr. Anton Seimon made a tough call to chase further west in the lesser 5% outlook with intentions of avoiding messy high precipitation storm modes and thick chaser traffic. This decision paid off as the team documented multiple highly visible tornadoes, including an up close encounter with a strengthening tornado.
    "The data the team collected is currently being processed by Dr. John Allen and his students at Central Michigan University to create a model of 3-dimensional particle motions close to the surface as the tornado intensifies and then inflicts damage to the farmstead. The results should add new insights on the air motions responsible for the damage patterns observed - something that is not possible to ascertain with even the best mobile Doppler radars."
    GREEN GHOST / NEW TRANSIENT LUMINOUS EVENT DISCOVERY:
    On 25 May 2019, Hank Schyma documented a never before cited green afterglow proceeding large red sprite events. In the several months following, TLE photographer Paul Smith would also document numerous others. In collaboration, Hank Schyma and Paul Smith have named them GHOSTs. This acronym in the works stands for Green emissions of(from) excited Oxygen in Sprite streamer Tops. This name also keeps in the theme of other transient luminous events namely sprites, trolls, pixies and ELEVES. A scientific paper is currently in the works and expected to be published soon.

    Hank is really the only storm chaser that I enjoy watching. He has the best narrator voice and doesn’t yell obnoxiously like all the others. His videos are so entertaining and he inspired me to want to know more about storms.

No one has said anything to prompt them speaking but they bombastically or randomly say something in a way that either suggests insecurity, arrogance, or silliness.

Also, it was a Dilophosaurus that was inspired by The Frilled Dragon, not the Velociraptor.

    My favorite PecosHank video (so far!). Your commentary is so entertaining and funny. I wish more stormchasers had your sense of humor. Those orange clouds against the purple-ish sky looked SO creepy! Seriously, that hotel looked like a Howard Johnson Motor Inn in rural Adams County, Pennsylvania I stayed at a few years ago. I clearly remember the camouflage (I kid you not!) duct tape holding the cover on the air conditioner. Such a high class place! The pool even had its own algae bloom. A couple years later, the place was shut down due to "health hazards" (can't IMAGINE why!) and the new owners gutted every room. I got a letter from the Health Department, asking me a whole bunch of questions about my stay, mostly if I had seen any evidence of "infestation," etc. Once the hotel was completely remodeled, the new owners, who I later found out were related to my cousin Eric's wife Sue, sent me a voucher for a week's FREE lodging, good anytime. Since I was already planning my next trip to Adams County, I called and made my reservation. The place looked entirely different and the rooms were amazing!

    RUclips's CC can't decide if he's chasing burritos, potatoes or tomatoes.

    This channel is a pleasant exception from all other RUclips channels in this genre. His genuine love of nature and technical expertise make for good content. From filming to editing and even the recording of a majority of his own backing tracks, Hank is the best storm chaser on RUclips by far. This competes for the spot of favourite channel on the platform overall.
    If you want a good example on how to do RUclips, there is nothing better than this video right here on this magnificent channel. Thank you, Hank! I love watching and re-watching your videos!

      And he’s not screaming the entire time either like some of the others. He’s so calm, collected and confident in his chases. He picks good music to play. He’s very knowledgeable. I could go on the point is I agree with you! I rewatch his videos a lot it’s almost comforting haha 😅

      @@kelsymarty8999, yes! Like the one guy who yells "Tornado on the ground!!" 300 times, like we can't see it. Or the guy who leaves his windshield wipers going, 'buckle up' and 'door ajar' alarms beeping, and dog barking while he films. Or the ones who want to get so close you can't see anything through the rain.
      Hank has the perfect mix, calm, informative, great shots, great music...across the board, he has it down.

    Thank you for providing us with informative videos during storm season, as well as educational and entertaining post-storm season analysis of a true, One Of a Kind Season.
    Looking forward to any preseason vids you may have in the works, and of course, the vids from the actual storms as they're occurring. So..
    Take Care
    And
    Stay SAFE
