04/03/08 Storm Chase Update 1

Hey Everyone,

My name is Graham Butler and as David has mentioned in some of his previous posts I am his chase partner; well, when my schedule allows.  I am currently a grad student at Texas Tech University getting my masters in geology; between classes, research, and teaching my life has been devoted to school.  I have been chasing since 2001 although only since 2004 have I been chasing with David.

Enough of the boring stuff.  Since I will be in the co-pilots seat today I will be working the laptop and consequently writing most of the blogs. We are currently grabbing a bite to eat in Post, TX and will be continuing to our tentative target, Sweetwater, TX, shortly.

And now what everyone has been waiting for: The streaming LIVE ChaseCAM is now active and will be running for the duration of the chase.  So drive with us to the target area.

Stay tuned for more updates.
