• Description: Join an 8-day exploration of the Great Plains, a region renowned for its spectacular storm systems. Starting and ending in Oklahoma City, this tour takes you through some of the most tornado-prone areas in the world. As you traverse the Plains, witness the full spectrum of severe weather phenomena, from rotating supercells to sprawling storm fronts. Learn about storm formation, behavior, and safety with insightful commentary and education. With small group sizes (no more than 7 guests) and guaranteed window seats, there will be ample opportunities to photograph and experience the raw power of nature. Learn about meteorology, storm formation, forecasting techniques, and how to spot different types of clouds and weather phenomena. We aim to witness thrilling weather events, such as hail, wall clouds, shelf clouds, lightning displays, supercell thunderstorms, tornadoes, and much more. We strive to get as close to the action as possible while prioritizing safety. Prepare for an unforgettable journey through the heart of America’s storm country.
• Accommodations: Rooms are provided for 8 nights, including the arrival night (April 24th) and up to the night before the final tour day (May 1st). For any additional nights after the tour concludes, guests will need to arrange and pay for their own rooms.
• Return Time: The tour will conclude by 5:00 PM on the last day (May 2nd) Please plan your departure accordingly.
• Meals: Please note that meals are not included.
• Weather Disclaimer: While our forecasts and expert guidance aim to maximize your chances of witnessing severe weather, there may be down days due to a lull in storm activity. On such days, we will reposition to the next chase area for the upcoming storm system. If the lull occurs close to the end of the tour, we may head back to the base city with stops at attractions along the way if time permits. Additionally, if we do not need to drive far to reach the next storm system or if the next storm system is expected to develop in our current area within a day or two, we will take the opportunity to visit local attractions, national parks, or find other enjoyable activities to do during that time. My aim is to make this an enjoyable experience for everyone, even if the weather does not fully cooperate.
