ARLINGTON, Texas – It’s just March, but the late-spring experiential tours offered by one Texas-based company are nearly sold out. The company, Tempest Tours, Inc., has specialized in storm chasing tours since 2000. Their mission is to introduce the science and romance of chasing to guests from around the world with an emphasis on safety and education.
“We provide an educational experience to our guests while intercepting the best storm of the day,” said Tempest Tours founder and president, Martin Lisius. The ‘best storm of the day’ is almost always a supercell thunderstorm producing tornadoes, prolific lightning and dramatic skies somewhere in Tornado Alley, which stretches from Texas to North Dakota.
The Tempest team is led by Lisius and a group of highly-skilled storm chasers. Together, they have accumulated more than 200 years of experience.
Since 2003, the company has intercepted over 300 tornadoes for its guests who travel from as far away as Australia to get a glimpse of a twister. “Even though we can’t guarantee a tornado, we can promise our guests the opportunity to live the life of a real storm chaser for a few days,” Lisius said. “That in itself is an adventure of a lifetime for many of them.”
Tempest Tours will operate nine tours in 2022 from April through early July, the peak of tornado activity in the US. Fees start at $2640 Single ($2540 Double) for six days of storm chasing. Information, including tour schedule and rates, can be accessed on-line at www.tempesttours.com.
