How does one become a strom tracker/chaser for a career?
      Thu Jun 01 2006 11:57 PM

I have always been interested in hurricanes and their awesome power. My wife and I moved to central Florida three weeks before Katrina from the New Orleans area. Last year changed my life forever because my parents, sister, grandparents, and many friends were caught in the storm and I did not speak to them for 2 plus weeks. When I finally did reach my family, I learned that the home I spent many years in was badly damaged and my sister's apartment near the lakefront was flooded. I could not believe the stories that were coming out of the city I grew up in and loved very deeply. I am interested in learning what careers are available in the field of meteorology that deal specifically with hurricanes and being there during the unfolding of the story. I have always been intrigued by the storm tracker/hunter teams who go out during the storm to report what is happening live. How do you break into this field? Thanks for any reponses.
