STORM TRACK: May 31, 1983 (Volume 6 Issue 4)

One impression among many this year: The slides are back now and appreciated, of course, as a lasting record of great events. However, no camera ... no lens can compress the enormity of a sky in motion and a seething darkness that inexorably joins the horizons. It is a scale of interaction that quickly surpasses any medium and becomes something ultimately that lives only in the memory.

The next issue will feature Tim Marshall's unusual March 3rd tornadoes in the Texas panhandle, some Joe Golden notes on Australian tornadoes, a recent listing of good regional weather radio stations from Mike Watts, and more. Barring receipt of additional articles from subscribers on unusual 1983 storm encounters, the September issue will feature John Weaver's excellent Wyoming chase story, "Close Encounters of the Revolving Kind."
