We are dedicated to bringing you current and up to date Severe Weather posts from all over the state of Missouri. We are based out of our home town of St. Louis, but we have freelance meteorologists and meteorology enthusiasts who help report from all over the Show Me State! We were founded in January 2011 after an uncommon severe weather event that struck the cities of Fenton and Sunset Hills on
New Years Day back in 2011. Our Chief Spotter and Founder, Tex Frank, posted updates via social media on his personal pages and came up with the idea for what was then, Tornado Hunters: St. We have since expanded over the years with the help of thousands of followers from all over Missouri and even some as far as New York, Mississippi, Nevada...and Germany! Our team is now made up of 7 individuals who dedicated their time to make sure our fellow Missourians and our neighbors in Illinois can stay safe in the event of severe weather events which now include blizzards, flooding, wildfires, and of course tornadoes. We are a non-profit organization and our crew is strictly volunteer based. Every Spring, we post Safety Briefings via our page to give everyone ideas about their safety procedures they would need to take including things like first-aid, escape routes, survival kits, and what to do in the event of entrapment. Another life saved is another life changed for the better! Living in Tornado Alley, education and survival are key. We are celebrating 10 amazing years in 2021 and we hope to celebrate another great decade protecting and educating everyone! Stay safe and remember to keep a weather eye on the sky!
