About Me


Check Out Tony's Storm Chasing Blog
Create your own friendquiz hereI am a weather nerd; and to prove it, look for my license plates. I'm a storm chaser by heart, student by trade, and just your typical kid chasing his dreams in a not-so-typical way. I find home in the arms of my girl and in the path of a tornado. My main passion in life is the pursuit of sever weather. I am an avid storm chaser and severe weather photographer and love to spend my time behind the camera. I travel all over the county every Spring to hunt down the worst that Mother Nature can bring. When I am not making 1,600 mile trips in 36 hours, I usually can be found locally hanging around my place. I pretty carefree and laid back and enjoy the much simpler things in life. I shop at Wal-Mart cause its cheap, use coupons at the grocery store to save a few bucks, and play Super Nintendo cause its old school! I enjoy spending time with my girl, friends, and family when I can. I also love to write (although I haven't penned a work in years), bowl, road trip, listen to music, play old-school Nintendo and SNES, computers, and other nerdy electronic gadgets. Basically, I am a nerd, but the coolest nerd you'll ever know!
All photos and stills were taken by me, Tony Laubach.

My Interests

As stated above, I'm a storm chaser and a lover of being in the weather. I not only chase down tornadoes, but I also shoot other various severe weather including hailstorms, flooding, high winds, and crazy lightning. I'm also a lightning photographer and a general weather photojournalist for local news stations here in Colorado and Kansas, as well as nationally for The Weather Channel! I've also had stuff aired on CNN and various other national affiliates. Aside from weather and the traveling it brings, I'm also a die-hard and loyal Washington Redskins fan! I plan my Sundays around their games and enjoy every season! I'm also an avid Fantasy Football player! Aside from all that, I also love to bowl, write, chill, play board and old school video games, be with friends and loved ones, especially my girl, Dania. *SMOOCHZ*

I'd like to meet:

Just looking for cool people to hang with! My girlfriend and I enjoy going out when we can and love to chill with great company. We're pretty laid back; love to bowl, swim, watch movies, board games, the usual (and sometimes unusual) bag of tricks. As for me personally, I work in a campus computer lab and have loads of computer free time, so having some online friends to pass some time with would be awesome, too! I'm also interested in meeting folks from these rural towns in Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Texas where I frequently find myself in my travels. :o) I'm also hoping to find some old friends from back home! I grew up in a small Ohio town called Circleville and met many great people while I was there. I'd love to hunt down a few of them here! Ciao! :o)
