Gage “hyskywx” Gibson Storm ChasingBetween 5:35 and 7:16 local time on April 27, 2025, I documented five tornadoes that occurred to the west and north of Hyannis, NE, splitting between the towns of Bingham and Ashby. Four of those five are timelapsed here (two of which show their entire lifecycle) with timestamps for how long the timelapses were going at each of the three locations I recorded from. Quarter to golfball sized hail was consistently falling at all three locations during the entire duration of all timelapses. I never noticed any visible debris in the air or powerflashes for any of these tornadoes.
Details for NWS North Platte:
Location 1- Looking SW from 42°00'57.7"N 102°02'34.6"W (maps.app.goo.gl/2ZCuXLcdYWgwdjhA7?g_st=it) Tornado #1: lasted from ~5:38-5:50pm looking SW, seemed to fujiwhara into the mesocyclone of tornado #3) Tornado #2 (anticyclonic, pictured far left around 12 second mark of video): ~5:43-5:46pm)
Location 2- Looking W from the town of Ashby 42°01'18.8"N 101°55'58.4"W (maps.app.goo.gl/1LepPVLDbSHcek9j9?g_st=it) Tornado #3: 6:10-6:24pm from this location before moving, but I had visual of this tornado from a separate location (not in the video) as early as 5:58pm and maintained visual on the same rotating rain wrapped circulation seen in the third timelapse until 6:55pm from location 3.
(Tornado #4: In between locations 2 and 3 I documented a satellite tornado of tornado #3 from 5:26-5:28pm that was somewhere to the northeast of the parent tornado as viewed from 2mi E of Ashby).
Location 3- Looking W from 42°10'04.4"N 101°43'43.8"W (maps.app.goo.gl/1jgrvAYchpfgdG3e9?g_st=it) Tornado #5: 7:05pm-7:16pm, took a deviant south turn at the end of its life.

Tripod Video Up Close w/ No Yelling! | 6-28-25 Gary, SDGage “hyskywx” Gibson Storm Chasing2025-07-05 | On June 28, 2025, dreams came true for Cam and I as we were blessed to witness what many longtime storm chasers have labeled one of the greatest tornadoes of the decade and maybe all time near Clear Lake and Gary, South Dakota. Experience this tornado through my eyes, with most of its lifespan filmed with tripoded video less than a mile away, with no annoying yelling or exaggerating, just the sounds of nature!
This twister tore through mostly open fields for nearly 40 minutes, only damaging two farmsteads and causing no life-threatening injuries despite its immense violence which can be heard as an audible roar multiple times throughout this video. A full survey and summary of the tornado (and other incredible ones that day which will be posted in another video) can be found here:

(5/23/2024)Gage “hyskywx” Gibson Storm Chasing2024-05-29 | On May 23, 2024, an incredibly photogenic, long lived, and strong tornado tore across the dusty open fields of SW Oklahoma near Eldorado and Olustee, not hurting a fly. Perhaps one of the best studied and observed tornadoes in decades, it put on a show for nearly an hour for chasers and scientific instruments alike. Here is my groups experience of that career day.
The supercell was in vaccuum mode its whole life, meaning I really struggled to keep the tripod still with the 50+ mph sustained inflow winds, so apologies for the artifacts from stabilization once in a while. The motion of this tornado was very slow but erratic directionally, leading to us pulling back a little bit halfway through its life and only briefly catching glimpses of its final white barrel stages through the dust, unfortunately.

Somehow, we managed to witness the first half of the two most significant tornadoes of the day from close (but still safe) range before they eventually outran us and roped out in the distance. Usually, I'm more of a time-lapse from distance kind of guy but the storm motions and hectic development of multiple tornadoes at once led to me only being able to shoot video, mostly from in the car, so apologies for the shakiness. Heck of a day for mother nature to give one of my best friends their first real tornado.
Unfortunately, we watched the beginnings of one of the most violent, deadly, and life-changing tornadoes in recent history, including coming across multiple tragic scenes of damage that were not included in this video out of respect for the victims. My thoughts and prayers go out to those affected by these tornadoes. If you would like to help: kcci.com/article/greenfield-iowa-tornado-how-you-can-help/60875485

August 8, 2023 Tornadoes in 4K!Gage “hyskywx” Gibson Storm Chasing2023-08-09 | Quick no audio 4k #timelapse edit of the entire lifecycle of the multiple #tornadoes that occured outside of Yuma, Colorado on August 8, 2023, from 4:30pm to 5:45pm, minus brief gaps while repositioning. The first occlusion was one of the most textbook and grand occlusions I think I've ever seen. Incredibly good for education reference! Got another good friend their first #tornado and my first August tornado(es)! As well as tornado #69, nice.
Tornado #1 (dusty and then fully condensed tube) was observed from 4:30pm-5:17pm W to SW to S of Yuma and Tornado #2/3 (multivortex and cone) was observed from 5:34pm-5:46pm SSE of Yuma.

This includes my career best #timelapse of the entire lifecycle, from birth to ropeout of the tornado 10mi NNE of La Grange, WY, which you can even see the handoff to the new mesocyclone that would go on to produce the tornado emergency prompting Scottsbluff tornado, which I timelapsed the distant ropeout of. Other than that, an entirely harmless, peaceful, beautiful #supercell ! Hoping to make a more complete video with my videos of the other tornadoes and nontornadic timelapses sometime within the next week. Career best #stormchasing day for #stormchasers all across the high plains! #storm #severeweather #meteorology

Our sixth tornado of the day from this career best chase day, and the best documented tornado of my storm chasing career.
From initial occlusion, wall cloud and RFD clear slot into tornadogenesis, to multiple rounds of further occlusion and maintenance, some vortex breakdown, ropeout, and even the handoff to the new mesocyclone that would produce the Tornado Emergency warranting Scottsbluff, Nebraska tornado a bit later. I can't believe I saw it all from the same spot, with no other chasers but my wonderful partner around.
Just lightning and thunder, crickets and birds, without having to move at all. Spectacular day for storm chasers again in Goshen County, Wyoming. Best of all, no tornado damage was visible or reported later on from this cycle.

Please keep the wonderful people of Perryton, Texas in your thoughts and consider helping them out in any way you can.
Seconds after watching the horribly tragic first Perryton tornado fade away into the rain, a spectacular second, much more peaceful tornado of landspout origin formed a few hundred yards from us as a dusty whirl. At some point, it must have transitioned to a hybrid, interacting with the parent mesocyclone nearby, and dramatically it went from a dust whirl to a spectacle, and just kept growing and growing as it tore through the unpopulated Texas mud for nearly 30 minutes a few miles south of town.
A horribly sobering example from one supercell of the two sides of nature we encounter living, traveling through, visiting, and chasing in the great plains.

Was dropping south onto the towers going up near Wichita that would end up becoming the Andover tornado but had to stop and watch as three dusty tornadoes, the first two seemingly landspouts as the QLCS along the cold front hit the dryline, and the third from an embedded supercell that developed within the line, and overtook highway 77 infront and behind us!
Just the formation of the third and longest track one at the end as we had to drop south to get out of its way.

This cell was tornado warned from Wright to Lusk WY, and I tracked and documented it best I could along it's stunning journey. From dramatic mesocyclone to high precipitation monster, this thing was spitting out funnels; cyclonic and anticyclonic like you wouldn't believe. What is widely believed to be a possible tornado is visible in the rain around 1:20.

A fourth funnel can even be seen condensing from the bottom of the funnel up to the croud as we make a right turn to pull over a view the funnels, which dissiapted before we could get out of the car and left us stunned.
