I am playing all the instruments, and the ones not shown here were produced with a MIDI keyboard and software instruments. Please rate, comment (I am open to constructive criticism) and subscribe!

Apparently I lucked up on recording this. I was just about to stop recording STORMCHASERS EP 4 when this show appeared. I thought it was a rerun of the show but it wasn’t!!! So I present to you, Episode 2 of The Science of Storm Chasing!!! Enjoy!!! *UPDATED INFORMATION* The TIV crew takes precautions to help ensure their safety.

A worst case scenario for the chase crew would include: A rapidly strengthening tornado, or wind speeds much higher than those recorded on the TIV instruments or estimated based on other chasers’ data An impact from the most powerful part of the funnel A broadside impact, where the surface area of the TIV is greatest With these factors present, a tornado could theoretically lift or move the TIV, or pull it apart.
