Batten down the hatches, folks, because we're about to take you on a wild ride through the heart-pounding world of tornado chasing in North Texas.

Yes, it's an obvious fact that storm chasing is dangerous, but it's even more so in the rural areas of Illinois. One storm chaser recently discovered a 'monster lurking in the corn' - a massive EF-2 tornado that he couldn't see initially because a field of corn was blocking his view.

We were thankful for the rain we got in Wichita Falls last night, but sadly several businesses were destroyed in the process.

East Texas already has dry conditions increasing fire dangers. There's another weather factor coming that won't help that situation.

At any time in Illinois, you might see any number of things cruising down your street. Vehicles obviously, the occasional dog walker, exercise freaks...oh and tornadoes. That's what one family saw zooming down their street recently.

As storms moved through Missouri this weekend, the St. Louis airport has officially confirmed that hurricane-force winds were recorded there.

It's wildfire season and the PNW is definitely seeing and feeling it. Fire danger is high in Washington state and Oregon.

This is one record you never want to hold. A Missouri man was carried over 1,300 feet by a violent tornado, yet lived to tell about it.

Thursday afternoon 6/30/23, a twister began stretching down toward the west end of Casper Mountain, Wyoming.

The first derecho that many of us in Iowa remember happened 25 years ago today. On June 29, 1998, a derecho developed in eastern Nebraska, and made its way across all of Iowa, Illinois, and Indiana
