Storm chaser Gabe Garfield joins Jeremy and Gabe on this episode of the StormReel podcast to talk about his journey into the weather world and about chasing the two largest tornadoes on record. On May 22, 2004, while still in college to study meteorology, Gabe chased the Hallam, Nebraska F4 tornado which grew to an enormous width of 2.5 mile's wide. At the time, it was the largest tornado on record, only to be eclipsed by the May 31, 2013 El Reno, Oklahoma tornado where Gabe and his chase partners found themselves in the crosshairs of a monstrous 2.6 mile wide tornado. Gabe talks about the highs and lows of chasing weather phenomenon that can be beautiful and mesmerizing but also cause mass destruction and heartache.

The family that chases together, stays together; and they have a great story to tell! On this episode of the StormReel podcast, Gabe and Jeremy invite a very special guest to talk about her first tornado experience. Jeremy's wife, Jane, shares how she accidentally intercepted one of Colorado's most notable landspouts on June 7, 2021, when a 10,000ft tall EF2 tornado emerged from a nearby storm on Jane's commute home.

Meanwhile miles away, while out for a walk with his daughter, Jeremy received word of the tornado and decided to get a (safe) view with his daughter and dog. What started as a normal afternoon, turned into an eventful family-wide tornado encounter for the Hamanns and one of our favorite stories to tell. Join us for a fun and memorable episode of StormReel!
