Silver Lining Tours (Storm Chasing Tours)

We also offer 1-10 day tours, and photography tours too! Join the Guinness World Record holder for most tornadoes seen!!!

Being established in 1997, Silver Lining Tours is one of the oldest storm chasing tour companies in the world and is owned and operated by Roger & Caryn Hill. We combine our years of experience and storm chasing expertise with our state-of-the-art technology to produce consistently excellent results year after year. We are totally dedicated to making sure that you have the most rewarding and excit

ing storm chasing vacation that money can buy. From the moment you contact us to inquire about our offerings to the last farewell at the hotel at the conclusion of your adventure, we are there for you, eager to answer all of your questions, share our knowledge with you and, ultimately, show you the majestic power of the springtime atmosphere from relatively safe but thoroughly revealing vantage points. We also believe in public education. One of our primary objectives is to educate you, our participant, about the earth's most powerful storms while you are watching them in real-time. We also want to de-mystify the forecasting process, giving you real insight into how we predict the emergence of conditions that favor the development of severe weather. You will leave us with a much greater understanding of how and why these storms develop, as well as how we forecast them. Roger is always eager to share his knowledge and conducts "Weather 101" classes when time permits. After setting through a class with Roger, you'll have a greater understanding of storm chasing lingo, along with what it takes to find that elusive tornado! The bottom line, though, is about results. We consistently have the highest tornado intercept per tour rate of any company. Nobody finds more storms and tornadoes than we do. The secret to our success? It all begins with making a good forecast. We take a systematic and organized approach to producing our daily weather forecasts, a product that culminates in the selection of a target area (i.e., the location that we anticipate will experience the emergence of conditions most favorable for severe weather). Then we drive without hesitation into the center of our target area, using state-of-the-art wireless technology to download weather data on the go. This allows us to constantly refine and shrink our target area. As our chase team approaches the target area, we scan the skies looking for visual clues that either corroborate the digital data or suggest that a shift in strategy is needed. Often times, we are able to identify physical processes and features that the relatively coarse observational data cannot resolve. Once a storm has been targeted, we are highly skilled at positioning ourselves so that we obtain the best possible lighting and visibility of the storm and its elements. If you are interested in storm chasing, making new life long friends, seeing parts of the United States you never knew existed, being taken care of by expert guides/drivers as they keep you safe AND getting more out of your hard earned money while on vacation, then consider the best and tour with Silver Lining Tours for your chase vacation. Proof is in the photos and videos as seen on www.silverliningtours.com or Roger's personal site at www.stormchase.net

Cool shot of the Eldorado, OK tornado from 5/23. Close and noisy! The second tornado, the beautiful white barrel was a treat!

06/02/2024

Other images (video stills) from Clovis, NM on 5/29. Tornado? Possibly? But maybe not. Who knows? Nobody claims it was, nobody, except those who WERE NOT THERE, claim it wasn't. We have 20 very happy guests who saw the same thing we all did. That's all that matters to us. (Taken with an Afidus ATL 800, which auto adjusts from 30 FPS to 3 FPS at a slow shutter speed in low light which causes blurriness in the dark, which I did not know it did!) Sucks, but it is what it is! Also, can't help lightning occurred when the damn lowering/tornado was behind a pole as one of those whole 3 frames were captured!) Taken over a 10 minute period. Once we were finally able to stop with a view, I grabbed my Canon 5D Mark IV from the back of the van.

May 21, 2024:

And this is how the 2024 Prime Time & Photo Tour #1 spent their day….

A few intense moments today while driving. (Wrapping rain curtains followed by STRONG RFD winds sure gets the heart pumpin’!) Guests loved it. First timers got a real treat so to speak.

Greenfield, IA took a direct hit and 3 wind turbines were taken down as well. Supposedly 215 mph winds were clocked. Will have to verify that. Saw the gorgeous rope out but was too busy driving. Took a few pings of hail but nothing too crazy. What a crazy tour it’s been so far!

***Video link will be available soon!!!

WARNING! CRAZY VIDEO!!!! May 12, 2005 we captured the South Plains, TX beast. Cool thing was we designed a probe for a Japanese film crew and got them right in front of it to drop the probe. The video is NUTS!!! Enjoy!!! (Wish it was high quality!!! Grrrr)
