George Hrabovsky Captures
Unusual Tornado Image
Veteran storm chaser George Hrabovsky has sent The
Citizen Scientist an unusual tornado image. He writes,
"Here is a multiple vortex tornado located approximately
40 km (25 miles) west of Madison, Wisconsin, at around
7:30 PM on 6 June 2006. This was one of eight tornadoes
we videotaped that evening."
George is a mathematician, theorist and experimental
scientist who serves as President of MAST.
His unusual tornado image is a reminder that storm chasers
come from many backgrounds, and they can record interesting
phenomena associated with tornadoes.

The MAST Storm Chase Group is described here.
