An experienced guide will ensure you have an educational and thrilling experience, highlighting the science behind the storms and the beauty of the chase.

• 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. Our aim is to make this an enjoyable experience for everyone, even if the weather does not fully cooperate.
