WHO WE ARE

A purpose beyond
the storm.

Welcome to the Chase connects responsible storm observation, community support, and accessible weather information.

OUR PURPOSE

People are the reason
we do this.

Severe weather is more than a radar signature. It affects homes, families, and entire communities.

Our mission brings together accurate field observations, verified information, and connections to recovery resources. HookScan extends that purpose through accessible weather intelligence.

We believe responsible storm chasing means being honest about what we observe, respecting emergency operations, and keeping the people in a storm’s path at the center of the work.
