It's the kind of weather that sends most of us to the basement. But Storm Chasers jump in their cars with cameras to hunt down dangerous storms and tornadoes.

Ten-Year Storm Chaser Jesse Risley and his crew took advantage of the severe weather predictions on Wednesday and headed toward Canton, Missouri, where his radar showed possibility for tornadic activity. Risley also uses police scanners, radios, video recording devices and cameras in their chase of these super-cell storms.

"It's adrenaline, it really is. It's a combination of that and fear," admits Risley. But he strongly points out the reason they chase storms is because they want to alert the public of what is coming their way. "People being hurt, unfortunately, is one of the down sides of severe weather. If anything this type of work should minimize that type of event and get advanced warning to the national weather service."
