Find out more about Tony: Tony Hake’s fascination with weather started as a sixth grader when an F2 tornado struck Thornton, Colorado about 4 miles from his house – a twister that is still considered the worst ever to hit the Denver metro area. Out of that storm Tony's interest in weather, especially severe weather, grew. Now he is a true weather geek, an amateur meteorologist, trained Skywarn storm spotter and runs a highly successful local weather website. You can contact Tony at tony@examinerweather.com. |
The 11th annual National Storm Chaser Convention is coming to Denver from February 13th to the 15th. Organized by storm chasers Roger Hill and Tim Samaras, this event brings together amateur and professional storm chasers, meteorologists, climatologists and experts from across a wide spectrum dealing with weather. It is a great opportunity to learn not just about storm chasing but also about the weather in general.
As usual, a great slate of speakers has been lined up including:
More than lectures though, the convention features screening of some of the most incredible tornado footage from the past year as well as a hands-on look at the latest in weather gadgetry. On the afternoon of the 15th, the National Weather Service will also be holding an official storm spotter training session that is open to the public.
