Natural disasters; Weather

An eye-of-the-hurricane view of storm chasing from the star of

the Discovery Channel hit series Storm Chasers.

Only one in ten chases actually intercept a tornado-unless you're

Reed Timmer. The thrill-seeking meteorologist and star of Storm

Chasers has followed and faced down more violent tornadoes than

anyone. Into the Storm brings readers into the mind of this man

and his mission—collecting data on tornadoes and hurricanes that could save lives—in the

terrifying, awe-inspiring world of big weather.

Into the Storm is also a fascinating look at the science of

weather—what causes extreme conditions, its connection to climate

change, and how a tornado gets its stovepipe structure.
