Channel 7's Big Weather seminar was held last night at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and was a complete success! Verne Carlson and I were video presenters along with Roger Hill and Tim Samaras (who was in D.C. and taped his show). Tim's lightning video was some of the most incredible stuff I had ever seen. He shot lightning on a camera that shoots at 10,000 frames per second. The images he showed were beyond anything I could even imagine. Not to mention his tornado footage that between him and Roger Hill, will make any tornado-nut drool. Verne, who was sporting a snazzy suit, and Michael showed off their incredible Sept. 16 tornado video. I followed them showing off some flood, hail, and lightning footage including my Seminole, TX hailstorm stuff. It was a ton of fun! Several of our chasing buds including Jon V, Allison, Jon M, Tom, and some friends from UNC attended as well! It was a blast! The seminar as a whole was a complete success for the news station and I would like to think an annual event held at the IMAX could be a possibility! Thanks to Mike Nelson and crew for setting up such a wonderful event and allowing us a chance to get up and show some of our work off on the IMAX! That's a pretty awesome thing to do!
