The producers did a great job superimposing my tornado footage into this music video. If you're an Arcade Fire fan, you'll wanna give this one an extra whirl.  

Thanks Bash for sending me this link.

STORMS MONDAY - TUESDAY - WEDNESDAY

Looks like a back to back to back severe weather event is assembling next week from Texas to the East Coast.  I'm scrambling to get my affairs in order for the big chase season... Lots of projects and commitments to tie up still.  Apologies for being slow on the draw responding to messages.  I'll get to them ASAP. 

Thanks Patrons!

I heard the thunder on a blue sky perfect day I wonder why am I the only one? I heard the thunder and I feel I’m going under Jesus Christ was an only son a day, a week, a month, a year a day, a week, a month, a year every second brings me here a day, a week, a month, a year a day, a week, a month, a year every second brings me here waiting on the lightning waiting on the lightning waiting on the light what will the light bring? I heard the thunder and I thought it was the answer but I find I got the question wrong I was trying to run away but a voice told me to stay and put the feeling in a song a day, a week, a month, a year a day, a week, a month, a year every second brings me here a day, a week, a month, a year a day, a week, a month, a year every second brings me here waiting on the lightning waiting on the lightning waiting on the light what will the light bring? ---------- #ArcadeFire #TheLightning #OfficialVideo

That. Was. Cool!

I think you answer rather quickly. When you answer the less than rational questions of a worried mother of a full grown man; you’re 1.) a good & patient person 2.) Good with your Patrons. Awesome video 👏!!

I have friends in the Newnan who are already worried about next week considering it’s coming on the year mark of the EF4 that destroyed our town. I live in a tiny town about 20 minutes south of Newnan and watched the whole thing on radar from Alabama to well past Newnan. It was reassuring knowing it was far enough away to not hit us. It was sickening knowing all of my family and friends were in its path. We are all a bit nervous 😬. But we pray and prepare. That’s why you chasers do what you do and why us amateurs (or me at least) do what we do. To save lives and protect our families. And marvel at the coolness of nature as well. Here goes the season!

Brilliant. Great video. Great exposure for your work.

Hi Hank. Have you looked at the forecast for next week yet? Looks like there is going to be some action in Texas in a couple of days. Are you going hunting maybe?

Paul Sherman

One of the last videos i saw from your channel on youtube was a live music gig you & the band did. Any chance of more?

Pecos Hank

Sure. I’ve been trying to find the time to record a new record. That will likely resume in July. Perhaps there’s some interesting video content that would come out of all that

They DID do good job didn't they! Love the message of the song too. Enduring the darkness on the way to the light! I think we're all feeling a bit of that right now. They seem to even be playful enjoying the smashed remnants afterwords:):)

What are your thoughts on the events on the next three days?
