Just curious....is anyone here big into weather? Tracking storms...listening to scanners, CB, chasing storms? Just wondering.


Im guessing most pliots are but just curious. lol I once was about to convert my old Honda into a Storm chaser. In fact painted on the door..."Storm Chaser 3". :lol: :roll: That dream was short lived...my Honda kicked the bucket on me. Besides what kinda chasin' am I gonna do in the mountains of Pennsylvania? :?

I follow "Intellecast.com" on the computer a lot. I also enjoy watching storm chaser programs on TV.

Heck yeah I'm interested in the weather. I probably check the TAF and METAR for GFK about 10 times a day.

I've got the phone numbers for the KGFK and KMSP ASOS/AWOS machines saved in my cell phone.

Oh, and I'm currently working towards an Atmospheric Sciences minor.
