Excellent stuff!

Big Hi to you Michael if you read this, hope you are enjoying your experience to the land of the real supercells, unlike the tiddlers we get here in the UK lol

You'll be able to come back here, and when we have one of our "bad" storms in the summer, with maybe grape size hail, and maybe a bit of a breeze knocking over a few signs, a branch or two and takes out next doors badly built and now rotten fence, and breaks a few panes in the greenhouse, you'll say, "awww, it's just a passing thundery shower, now in Tornado Alley in the US.........................................."

All the best!

I dare say he is a busy man and while in the US at the moment has also more interesting things to do and see than being on the internet lol

His username is "Michael Fish" and he has indeed posted right here in this forum (only the once though).

Weird, the Telegraph hasn't got any more updates since day five. I wonder what that's about?

[Paul]

The telegraph are a little behind with their updates, but will catch up eventually, each update is effectively a couple of days worth as well - so they're being a little misleading when they're calling each one day 1, 2 etc!

When we're back, you'll be able to read Mike's full (unedited) blogs on nw

No more updates from the telegraph yet but I can see that they have given a link to Net Weather for more information.

nice video there,

the 'lads' will be pleased to see themselves on BBC tv I should think

[NL]

Highly enjoyable short film. Fame for Net-weather stormchasers...

In his blog in the Telegraph he says "roll on next year!"

Does Michael have plans to go next year too?

[Zenarcher]

Great video Paul thanks for posting.

No definites as yet, but it's certainly a possibility that he may come back out with us next year - watch this space as they say!

Hey he didn't mention Net Weather. He could have slipped it in when he talking out having an opportunity to go storm chasing.

[Paul]

He's not allowed - the bbc have pretty strict rules on that sort of thing

[pottyprof]

Fantastic!!!

Well you guys could have put Net Weather T Shirts on and stood accidentally in shot in the back ground.

John Prescott did it with his new book quite blatantly when being interviewed. I'll just read this as the camera's come in.

Lol and you have a fair point there - we were intending to get some nw polo shirts sorted, but time beat us in the end!

[dogs32]

that was really good....cant see the harm on him mentioning netweather..great video

[ANYWEATHER]

Paul ,thanks for the website BBC southeast today. I felt very proud to be looking at that video and being part of the team. The video even though short, really does justice to storm chasers generally, and Mike being the professional he is pointed out that its not an easy job "chasing" with long hours on the road etc....
