Here we go again and this time we will get out of the beautiful Norman, Oklahoma. Norman is a university town south of Oklahoma City (OKC short) and the seat of most forecasting and research centers for meteorology and especially for severe weather.
two nights "resided" we in our own cottage, nestled in a nice park Everybody has their own bedroom, there's also built-in kitchen and two TVs anyway. Yesterday we went to Piedmont not only on the way through OKC, but also in the small suburb. Takes place there every year a large Chaserpicnic in which a bunch of known US-Chaser in burgers, breakfast and Dr. Pepper (and similar) sitting together and exchanging views. A highlight was the numerous, sometimes really fantastic videos Stormchaser-celebrities such as Jim Leonard, Scott Currens, or Olivier Staiger (also called klipsi). About 60 people were there yesterday and offered us for the first time the opportunity to chat with our "colleagues" here in the States and share a few experiences. Needless to say, almost, that the play chase in the Plains often in a different league than we in Germany. The location of the party, the home of Rocky Rascovich is only located on the edge of the metro area located in the middle of the prairie, in addition to the extensive grounds with pool's right over his own paddock. The area is due to its location a tremendous vision in all directions and Rocky's wife told us right from the close encounters with some tornadoes that distinguish them from could watch their garden already.
