Storm Chaser Hit By Tornado | Baytown, Texas 1-24-2023

Watch as a storm chaser can’t get out of the way in time and get hits by a tornado in the Houston area.

On Tuesday, January 24, 2023, a potent storm system moved across the southern plains causing a tornado outbreak along the Gulf Coast and impacting the Houston area. I chased storms southwest of Houston, but those storms struggled to get going. As the storms moved east and across Houston, they flipped the switch and went tornadic, prompting the National Weather Service to issue a tornado emergency for areas including Baytown, Texas.

This video shows a tornado hitting me in Baytown, TX near the Baytown Nature Preserve and the resulting damage. I attempted to avoid the circulation but traffic and stop lights meant that it overtook me. Thankfully I was not hurt but I should not have put myself in that place. Do Not Attempt.
