ChaserCon Canada

This past weekend, I went to ChaserCon Canada for a second year in a row. I brought with me, my good friend Erin, who I met back in 2014, on Cloud 9. It was held in Winnipeg this year.

One of my favourite photographers, Mike Olbinski, was the keynote speaker.



The first night was a meet and greet while sharing videos and photos. I got to share my mammatus time-lapse, as well as my birthday tornado video.

After all the talks finished, we took a tour of Prairie and Arctic Storm Prediction Centre!


I really wanted to keep the hand drawn sounding data that Kyle, one of the young meteorologists had, but he still needed them.

Luckily for me, we ran into the guys at the pub that night and he gave them to me!






Erin and I wore our matching necklaces from when golf ball sized hail shattered the side window while on our very first chase together (my first chase ever), on May 7th, 2014 in TX. We both kept a few pieces of the shattered glass.
