Essential Gear for Storm Chasers

I found a nice resource for foul weather gear. Foul weather gear as well as other essential items used by storm chasers. I'd like to post it for readers to visit and check out the cool brief reviews on every product and get ideas for the stormiest weather conditions you might run into.

1. FLY AND DRY "When storms break up, they blow out cold, rain-cooled air—it gets pretty chilly," says Lisius. Be prepared with Outdoor Research's hooded Zealot jacket, a storm shell that uses waterproof-breathable Gore-Tex PacLite to keep you dry. 2. THE WEBMASTER Lisius uses a Nokia cell phone like the 6230 for quick Web access. "I can connect to the Internet at the same speed as a land line," he says. Using Nokia's wireless connection to his laptop PC, Lisius surfs for up-to-the-minute weather reports. 3. SLOP MONSTERS Salomon's XA Raid 3D high-top adventure-racing shoes won't bog down in the mud. The 14.3-ounce kicks offer firm ankle support and beefy plastic-and-rubber protection over the heels and toes. Mesh uppers allow wet feet to dry quickly.
