We would like to welcome four new members and bid farewell to two members.
First, we must bid farewell to John Diel and Liana Sain. We all appreciate the opportunity to get to know them and hope that our paths cross in the future somewhere, hopefully on a very productive chase.
Barry Boyce works for the American Red Cross and joined MESO a few months ago. His qualifications and knowledge will prove to be a valuable asset to our team.
Mike Bates is from Windsor, CO and is a survivor of the wedge tornado that hit there in 2008. He has experience as an IT professional and amateur radio operator. We look forward to using his knowledge on the chase.
Sue Malena is a special needs teacher in Kansas City, MO and has been our version of ‘Aunt Meg’ for a few years. She has provided a home base for our annual field trip to the Great Plains.
Bryce Hawkins-Fisher is our newest member who hails from Darwin, Australia. Brian is a Registered Nurse and has been chasing storms for 9 years. He has provided footage for The Weather Channel in Australia. His chasing experience will be an asset.
This is an exciting time for MESO as we take on new talent and constantly change into something hopefully better able to serve the community-at-large.
