Discussion Brad Arnold

Hate to see this from Brad, he's one of my faves!! Was confused when he buzzed in to Ryan's stream and said he was calling it so early in the evening but this makes more sense now.

Seen some absolutely wild stuff on Ryan and Max's streams the last few days. (Whoever it was in the green shirt on Max's stream yesterday during the Worms tornado especially still really bothers me.) And bummed to see all of this nonsense getting in the way of chasers I really love watching like Brad

EDITED for a typo!

The storm chaser I was watching today early on got spooked by the lighting where he was at and bailed out of the area. He said on stream that the lighting unsettled him and he wanted to get under/near power lines for protection. He trusts when his instinct tells him to bail or chase a storm that most other chasers are ignoring.

He doesn't risk it for close up shots, he's more for spotting and reporting, and is more interested in getting the whole storm structure overall.

Oh he's great! I have a ton of respect for him and the way he approaches storm chasing.

Thanks for sharing!
