Kansas needs to charge a significant storm chasing tax.

I saw people without headlights on, people pulling out in front of others, and fools passing dangerously. There is going to be a pile up someday. The worse I saw was one April 14th last year. I got on that storm south west of Salina and followed it all the way up to Northern Riley county. I did not know it at the time because I was too busy watch the storm and monitoring the radar but my buddy, who was driving was driving over the speed limit at time because we were in the middle of the "pack" of about 50 chasers. SPEEDING!!!!! I was so pissed when I found out. That was just to keep the flow. If you are speeding to get out of the way of storm, that's one thing but to catch a storm. It should never rough ridin' be that way. I really hate how chasing has become.So your driver didnt slow down?

can you put that next to a quarter or something for scale? I have no idea how geographically large or small the phillipines are.

What is this big fella named?
When did they start arbitrarily changing the storm categories to "super". I know they called tropical storm Sandy a "super" storm for some reason, but now a cat 5 typhoon is a super storm?
KU is right on par with Notre Dame ... when it comes to adding additional conference revenue
Beer pro tip: never drink anything other than BL, coors, pbr, maybe a few others that I'm forgetting
That sounds crazy and I can only imagine. Glad I wasn't there for that. Gustav was a blast! ....for like three days until all the liquor and food ran out and it got old sitting in hot-ass muggy weather. Then I bailed and went to my Grandma's house in Chattanooga.Great book on Katrina: Zeitoun, by Dave Eggers. Increds. Amazing. Read it.*edit*: Who will write a book about MHK's microburst? <--But with microburst book
