Our Guests

Tornado Trackers, Storm Chasers

• Jeff Magnum, Austin TX
• Jeremy Hamann, Denver, CO
• Gabe Cox, Jacksonville FL

Tornado Trackers was founded in May 2013 when three friends created a joint twitter account to keep friends and family updated on chases.

Since then, all three have worked together to maintain Tornado Trackers, both in the field and through social media, with the simple goal of sharing their enthusiasm for all things weather. At the heart of what they do lies a complete fascination with storms and a genuine excitement to be a part of the larger community of weather fanatics worldwide.

Their footage has been broadcast on many networks including ABC, NBC, CBS, The Weather Channel, CNN and The National Geographic. Was recently identified by WIRED magazine as one of the top storm chasers to follow on Twitter.

Our Guest

William Cole, meteorologist and creator of Oklahoma Weather Tracker TV.

Oklahoma Weather Tracker TV was founded in 2009 as OklahomaWeatherTracker.com. Founder and Chief Meteorologist William Cole noticed a lack of LIVE online weather information available in Oklahoma. William made it his goal to change that and OklahomaWeatherTracker.com was launched as a simple and easy to navigate website with minimal advertisements featuring an abundance of Live Oklahoma weather information such as Live Radars, Live Conditions, a Live Blog, Forecasts and much more. OklahomaWeatherTracker.com has generated a huge following on Facebook and Twitter over the years. The Oklahoma Weather Tracker mobile app was created on the same principles; an easy to naviagate app that puts Live Oklahoma weather information at the finger tips of Oklahoman's.

In late March of 2016 Oklahoma Weather Tracker TV became available nationwide on Apple TV, Roku and Google Chromecast also on Amazon Fire TV.
