 2004 STORM CHASE ACCOUNTS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Since Brian and I departed for our chase today at 4:30pm, we were able to monitor initiation via internet as we drove north to Omaha and then east along I-80 toward central IA. One cell, which briefly looked supercellular developed just west of Des Moines and then weakened as it moved northeast.
We followed the supercell northeast into Merrick and Nance Counties as the storm went through an occlusion, but the tornado window had once again closed on us...it was just bad luck that we let the storm go at the wrong time.
At this time, we believed the chase might be over, so we ate at a subway, and then drove back south into IA. As we approached Ft. Dodge, IA, tornado warnings were being issued for a supercell to our west.

This chase was a great experience...the supercell we observed was one of the best I have witnessed while chasing.
There was another cell to our south in Randolph County which also had a radar-indicated tornado warning...it was beginning to dump precip into our cell, so we blew-off the northern cell, and dropped a bit south of Hunnewell, MO to get in front of the base of the southern cell.
We decided to call off the chase once we reached O'Neill, since it was impossible to get to the other side of the storm (we would of had to driven underneath the rotating base...which would have been a foolish thing to do).

Crockett, whose office is separate from Easterling's, said he gave Holden a break because he was a soldier who served his county and would face additional punishment by the military for his actions.

" Chase stated, "Radon has long been a public safety issue, but recent radon testing efforts, particularly in the Southtowns, have exposed the fact that indoor radon levels in Erie County are often significantly higher than EPA’s action standard.
What that means is that the men, women and children of Erie County may be unnecessarily exposed to radiation in their homes and in their workplaces despite the fact that radon testing and mitigation are simple and affordable techniques."
