Simon Brewer Stormchaser
|
Simon Brewer is a stormchaser based out of Norman, OK. He is also a meteorology undergrad at the University of Oklahoma. Born and raised in Dayton, OH Simon has been blessed with a passion for weather all of his conscious life with a special fondness for severe weather. Since Simon began storm chasing in 1999 he has seen the Widest Tornado In History (2.5 mile Wide Hallum, NE Tornado), he got in the eyes of 3 Major Hurricanes: Dennis, Katrina, and Rita in 2005 (Hurricane Katrina the worst natural disaster in U.S. History), and he has seen over a 140 tornadoes in the past 8 years of storm chasing! Simon has other hobbies; he is a runner (Simon ran for the University of Oklahoma Cross Country team for two years, one of which he red-shirted). He is a lover of nature, which compliments his passion for weather. Simon also plays disc golf (not ball golf). But chasing storms over shadows all of Simon's other hobbies. Simon's life is storm chasing. He chases supercells, tornadoes, blizzards, floods, fires, and hurricanes year-long anywhere in the world. Simon's only restriction on chasing is money, because chasing storms can be expensive. Simon enjoys sharing his love of weather with the world on Stormgasm.com just as much as he loves witnessing the most awesome displays of violence and beauty Mother Nature can produce. Simon's goal when storm chasing is to experience weather phenomena, document the event, and provide all essential information to the public to help save lives. Simon says, "Its all about the experience Baby!" |
