storm chaser⚡️// loving nature and weather 🌿 // from western germany 🇩🇪 // 🌪️ count: 4
pinned post!
Hello everyone! ^^ I'm a passionate storm chaser from western germany. I chase storms since july 2023, so I'm just at the beginning of a long learning process. Nevertheless, I want to share the experiences and footage of my first steps and would also like to get in touch with other storm chasers.

"Dead Man Walks in Germany" Unser Mitglied Aaron hat dieses Bild beim Stormphotocontest eingereicht. Es zeigt den Tornado in Untertheres, den wir am 28. Mai 2025 bei einem Chasing in Bayern gesehen haben.

Storm Chasing – das bedeutet Gewittern mit Blitzen, Sturmböen, Hagel und manchmal sogar Tornados begegnen – ist das nicht gefährlich? Die ehrliche Antwort ist: Es kommt darauf an... Und die für viele überraschende Antwort ist, dass Gewitter nicht die größte Gefahr beim Storm Chasing sind.

The good thing about storm chasing in Europe is that sometimes you are the only one out there ^^

In der Nacht vom 19. auf den 20. Januar 2026 hat uns die Magnetosphäre einmal mehr gezeigt, wer die beste Lichtshow abliefert! Aufgrund eines massiven Sonnensturms tanzten die Polarlichter bis tief in den Süden. Von giftgrünen Vorhängen bis zu tiefroten Schleiern war alles dabei.

Die Sonne strahlt am Abend des 27. Juni 2024. Den Wettermodellen zufolge soll das Wetter bis zu einer großen Unwetterlage zwei Tage später ruhig bleiben. Und dennoch sehe ich auf dem Radar, wie sich in meiner Nähe ein kleines Gewitter entwickelt.

Jörg, Jerome und Erik warteten die Entwicklungen an der Uni in Bonn ab. Gegen 17:30 Uhr war die Hoffnung quasi bereits aufgegeben, als sich einige kräftige Schauer entlang einer Linie westlich von Köln auf dem Radar bemerkbar machten.

Am 29.8.2020 jagt uns eine Superzelle östlich von Verona, die Wolken rotieren heftig. Kurz darauf überquert ein Tornado im dichten Regen direkt vor uns die Autobahn. Schäden an Dächern, aber zum Glück keine Verletzten.

Well… the season finale was all about standing in a field in Belgium and waiting for storm initiation… that just didn‘t happen. Anyways, I‘m already excited for 2026!

Since the weather is still quiet and the sky is clear, I will do something different tomorrow: night sky chasing! Simply enyoying the moon, the stars and the perseids ^^

Yesterday's supercell in northern France was very impressive to watch! The wall cloud just got darker and lower every minute... until it all was torn to shreds by the approaching squall line.

Two years ago I barely knew anything about storm chasing and meteorlogy. A few weeks ago Jerome and
@aaron-stormchase.bsky.social
from Sturmjäger NRW and I threw in all our knowledge and experience to make a dreamlike storm chase come true. This is how we did it:
