Stay Safe

Safety is our top priority. Our staff attends a rigorous safety training orientation annually. Several are involved in public safety roles including firefighters, police officers, weather service forecasters, storm spotter trainers and emergency managers.

• Experienced Storm Chasers. That's what it's all about. The Tempest Tours Team possesses a thorough knowledge and feel for severe weather forecasting and the ability to identify and intercept the most significant weather of the day.

• Solid Intercept Record. We are able to achieve this high intercept rate because of the logistical and forecasting skills we have developed over many years.

• Safe, Comfortable, Reliable Vehicles. Our company-owned heavy duty vans are modified to carry a maximum of only 8 passengers (including guests and staff) for improved comfort and safety. They are carefully maintained, commercially insured, clean and smoke-free.

• Our Two Van Guarantee. We could operate more vehicles, but we won't. Limiting tours to only two vans improves safety, mobility and the quality of the experience.

• Cutting Edge Technology. We utilize the latest weather tracking and radar tools and systems.

• A Commitment To Safety. Our staff receives thorough safety training every year. And all drivers are screened and approved by our insurance underwriter. At Tempest Tours, safety is priority.

• A Dedication To Education. We believe that all guests should leave their expedition with a better understanding of how our dynamic atmosphere works. We provide weather briefings and presentations to help meet that goal.

• Commercial Grade Insurance. Before the company began operations, we obtained a commercial insurance policy to compliment our commitment to safety. Read A Tour Operator's Responsibility to be Insured. We carry commercial insurance as required by the National Tour Association.
