Nick Bartholomew, founder of Storm Science, brings years of real-world experience, having documented more than 50 tornadoes and traveled across Tornado Alley to witness some of nature’s most intense storms.

You will also learn about the technology and tools storm chasers use to track and predict these dynamic events. A Q&A session will follow the presentation.
