We wish to thank the National Severe Storms Laboratory and The Weather Channel for their cooperation and assistance during this chase. We would also like to give special thanks to Rusty at the NSSL and to Patrick Walshe, Assignment Manager and Senior Meteorologist for The Weather Channel.

NSSL vehicles and personnel preparing to begin the days chase.	University of Oklahoma students discuss the days chase possibilities.

 

Vince Miller of The Weather Channel displays his Vortex '94 T-shirt. "Eat lightning and spit thunder," an appropriate phrase.	Perhaps one of the most important stops of the day is the fuel stop. For both vehicles and personnel, a pit stop is a necessity.

 

The NSSL teams stop briefly...	...to make equipment changes and adjustments.
