A handful of photos from this year's Arizona chase, the first chase I've actually bothered with my camera!

Nah not next year, I'll be stateside for 4 weeks through May and June so won't have enough leave!

It's great though. A far more sedate pace to the usual storm chasing and Phoenix is a cracking place, plus Arizona as a whole is beautiful even without storms.

Genuine supercell? Blimey. We didn't get any when we were there.

I've finally "finished" my blog post for this amazing holiday. I can't thank Paul enough for his great casing but also Nick and Matt for helping make it a greta holiday.

I'll let the pictures in here speak for themselves. It's not all lightning but there are a LOT of pictures!
