Storm chasing built into a formal, sustainable business.

605 Chaser began in 2019 as an independent severe weather content project and has grown into 605 Chaser LLC, a registered South Dakota business built around live storm coverage, field reporting, and public safety communication.

The team runs a full broadcast pipeline — live overlays, real-time radar and mesoscale analysis tools, road and shelter intelligence, and direct coordination with National Weather Service offices — to deliver accurate, fast severe weather information from the field.

Beyond content, 605 Chaser is building toward guided ride-along experiences for the 2027 chase season and a Field Scholar Program connecting university meteorology students with real storm intercepts.
