[Storm-Chase Heroes?]

Im not sure i really think that Tim samerios ( dont know how to spell it ) is a great chaser takes the right risks and gets close safest way possiable. And hes helping design houses stronger etc...

And Sean casey as he went through so much and yet maneged to lead a great team to intersepts etc!!!

Hi

Would you categorise Tim as a chaser or scientist? I recently wrote a a blog to find out who the legends of storm chasing are on the BBC '23 Degrees blog' http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/23degrees/2011/05/does_chasing_an_f5_category_to.html

The Beeb are keen on finding out who is ranked at the top.....we are likely to be out in the US in june and want to get the community's opinion

let us know

Just out of interest did anyone witness the northern lights on 2-3 April. I haven't been so lucky myself to witness this but would be great to hear someones account of what they saw - all people keep telling me is colourful lights but which usually show up on film as opposed to see with the visible eye
