Timing the sunset correctly can lead to some vibrant colors and really enhance the feel of your image. This severe storm near Goodland Kansas in April of 2012 had a sinister look to it with the sun setting behind it. Zach Roberts Lead Photographer Mr Twister

Photo of the Day: “Surging”
One my favorite chase days of 2013. After chasing several tornado warned cells in the Nebraska panhandle I decided to give this little storm a chance before I called it a day. Just as I arrived it went into beast mode..going tornado warned and morphing into an incredible display of structure. Grant Nebraska June 2013 …
Snow, Ice and frigid temperatures have arrived
Accumulating snow has invaded the Rockies and high plains as of this morning and a cold front continues to march to the South and East ushering in frigid temperatures. Heavy snow is falling in the Rocky Mountains and portions of the Dakotas. Temperatures have plummeted by 50 degrees in some locations with wind chills in …
Photo of the Day: “Swath”
A massive storm swallows portions of the Eastern Colorado front range. I will always remember this storm not only for its size and beauty but also for our tardiness nearly costing us a tornado. My wife and I had a court case we had to attend and raced to this storm just in time as …

Up until this day in June of 2012 I had not seen a tornado warned storm with intense rotation so close to the Rocky Mountains. This storm nearly put a tornado down and the sight of it spinning West of Colorado Springs was incredible. Zach Roberts Lead Photographer Mr Twister
Photo of the Day: “Road Hazard”
Crazy chase day in NE Colorado this past June. I watched this wall cloud with decent rotation pass directly over me near Brush. The storm was tornado warned for some time..then came the hail. Over a foot pea to marble size hail covered everything around me. Zach Roberts Lead Photographer Mr Twister
Photo of the Day: “Take Cover”
Low precipitation supercells are some of the most photographic storms on the planet. The= small amount of precipitation allows for the entire column of the mesocyclone to become visible. This particular LP near Ashland Kansas was tornado warned for over an hour and had very intense circulation. Zach Roberts Lead Photographer Mr Twister
Photo of the Day: “Comfortable End”
A sunset near Buffalo Oklahoma over an old abandoned building. Storm chasing is surprisingly more calm than many are led to believe. In fact, most chases end in scenes like this void of any storms at all. For me, storm chasing is just as much about relaxation as it is the adrenaline rush. Zach Roberts …
Photo of the Day: “Updraft of Cotton”
One of my top 5 non tornado chases. May of 2012 in Western Kansas. Three updrafts rocketing skyward just as the sun hit its peak colors. Was an amazing sight. Zach Roberts Lead Photographer Mr Twister
