The video is both amazing and frightening.
Storm chasers, risking their own lives, videotaped a staggering number of killer tornadoes that tore through several southern states Wednesday.
The death toll is expected to exceed 200 throughout the southern U.S.; Alabama is the hardest hit state with more than 120 dead there alone and large areas of the city of Tuscaloosa has been left in ruins.

When the weather reports say “severe” and “evacuate”—most people do everything in their power to run far, far away. But then there’s meteorologist Reed Timmer of the Discovery Channel’s Storm Chasers. He runs right into the heart of some of the worst weather conditions Mother Nature can muster up like F5 tornadoes and hurricanes named Katrina. We caught up with Reed as a new season of Storm Chasers premieres on Sunday, October 18th at 10pm (EP/PT) to get the lowdown on what it’s like to be inside the action.
