As scientists and thrill-seekers race toward swirling supercells, this guide shows how storm chasers plan routes, interpret radar, and stay safe while gathering data on tornadoes, lightning, and flash floods. It details the high-risk decisions they face from dodging debris to navigating flooded roads while explaining the tools that turn every close call into valuable scientific insight. By following their expeditions, readers learn how storm chasing has improved severe-weather forecasts and deepened our understanding of nature's most violent phenomena.
