Weather MEN!

If you are a born and bred Kansan you know that storm season is one of the best times of the year. We get some major storms in our neighborhood, and once in awhile the weather is just right and we can be in for some doozies. Today is one of those days. Since this morning even the national weather media has been warning of Super Cell tornadoes, large hail, and all-around Kansas weather goodness. So good, in fact, that it's attracted the attention of some weather celebrities.

How would you like to be driving down a two-lane blacktop in Flatsville, Kansas and see this thing blow past you?

The Storm Chasers of Discovery Channel fame are sitting in the parking lot of an antique mall no more than 30 minutes south of my tiny little hometown!


About an hour ago I got a call from my very excited Mom teling me that this "big tank thing" was parked in the truck stop half a mile north of our house. She sent me a link to their live video stream and sure enough, there they sat. Pretty soon they started traveling and finally settled in to the antique mall parking lot to wait on some big storms to pop up.

I've been letting the video run in the background and I have to say, these boys are good for some comedic relief. I'm fairly certain they've forgotten that their dash cam has audio, because they've spent the last 15 minutes serenading viewers with off-tune renditions of everything from Johnny Cash to Lil' Troy.

If you hurry on over to their live video feed you can witness them doing "interviews" while they kill time before the next storm.

Oh, and ladies...you DO WANT to see those interviews. Who knew that storm chasers were so dang good looking!?

Maybe those boys could use a refreshing beverage while they wait. I could be there in 20 minutes flat. :)
