Aaron Jayjack :: Storm chaser and severe weather videographer

Hello! I found my way here on a tip from a very close friend who must think I live a very interesting lifestyle.

Everyone should have a passion. Actually, I've noticed that your passion follows you through all walks of life - or at least that's an ideal scenario. My biggest passion, and what I hope is something unique to bring to this community, is storm chasing and videography of severe weather events.

While I am an IT expert for a career, my hobby of storm chasing and videography are the unique trait I will mostly focus on here. My interest in severe weather goes back as far as I can remember. I have been studying, chasing, and tracking severe weather since the 1990s; briefly studying at Purdue University for Atmospheric Sciences before changing degrees. I've continued my interest in weather through my own adventurous getaways, chasing supercells across the plains of the United States. Along the way I've grown a love for photography and videography.

For my first post and introduction, I'd like to share with you a highlight video that I put together of my chasing adventures this past spring. I was able to video and document a rare anticyclonic tornado in Big Spring, TX on May 22nd in 4K video - a first ever 4K capture of an anticyclonic tornado - and it was quite a beauty.

Hope you all enjoy the video!
