Who we are

About WNY Stormchasers

Your trusted source for weather information, storm tracking, and the thrill of the chase — without the drama.

Overview

Ground truth when it matters

WNY Stormchasers offers expert forecasts, storm tracking, and live chase coverage. Technology and radar are valuable — but they don’t always show what’s happening on the ground.

Our chasers report live conditions across our platforms and send observations and scientific measurements directly to the National Weather Service, helping enhance warnings for Western New York.
