Woweee...fellas..I love this awesome AWESOME video....especially with the many closeby CG-strikes and huge thunderclaps from the middle on that you captured from inside your nice car......that is the kind of video that make my mouth water all over...excellent footage of the incredible Tstorms you videotaped from THU 6/30/05.... that was 1 month, 1 day after my impressive 5/29/05-Tstorm videos...also on YouTube.
Were those last strikes so close that the thunder was inaudible? Or was it because the GOON in the car with you was hollerin' so loud he drowned it out?
This is amazing!! I would love to go stormchasing in the States, call it a life's ambition. I live in England, our storms are becoming more intense with more tornados but there's nothing like those you have over there. How would I go about chasing?? Thankyou!!
We get those kind of storms every now and again here in Southeast Texas. I remember heading to work one day and we were driving through a heavy rain storm and as we were coming up to an a bolt of lightning hit on the blind side of the truck over the tree line. It literally made me jump out of my skin. If you want lightning come to southeast Texas and see one of our toad chokers. That footage was scary and amazing!
If you check out my June 10, 2004 video, I went through New Whiteland that day, tracking two wall clouds with the occasional funnels.
What started me chasing in the first place (14 years ago), is I got tired of watching storms on radar that would be coming my way and ALWAYS weaken before getting to me... so I decided to go to the storm, rather than waiting for the storm to come to me :)
Actually, I grew up south of Monroe Central school, and never got anything over there until I moved to Muncie, then stuff started hitting there all the time... lol. Thanks for the comment!

The one at 6:50 was the closest. The lightning and thunder were virtually simultaneous. It coudln't have hit more than 20 or 30 feet outside the car.
