Here are video (coming very soon) and pictures of a Saskatchewan, Canada
supercell from yesterday (July 10, 2008). We drove 30 straight hours with no sleep to get to our target in extreme southeast SK just west of the Moose Mountains.. Well worth the 10 years of life that drive took from me! Canada is the promised land for a storm chaser -- the scenery is insanely beautiful, with bright yellow canola fields, no haze, and perfectly flat terrain. Not to mention it stays light up here until about 11:00 pm! I've been talking with Environment Canada (Canada's National Weather Service) today, and
they said there is significant damage in Carlyle, SK. We were right
under the wall cloud at the time and experienced 80-100 mph RFD winds
that nearly blew our car off the road. We then stopped to get gas in Carlyle when the rotation was right overhead...the wind gusted to 100 mph, knocked the power out, and blew down about 5 firework stands inside the gas station when I opened the door! 
Hi I am flying into Canada in 16 hrs time looking forward to some bad weather,
Now its my turn to watch the skies and play safe, hoorah!

ok, now that I've watched the video, i have to say, you guys are crazy! I drove from Weyburn home to Carlyle that night and got home just as it was ending. I really really wanted to be anywhere but in my truck.

It's fixed Jody!
Sorry about that... You sure live in a beautiful place. I'm obsessed with the Canadian Prairies. I swear the storms are more intense up there. Be safe this storm season!

just an idea about deploying Josh's Probes, Like a ww2 destroyer,with its depthcharge rack, make a rack to mount in the back of a truck , or the TIV2, that can set multiple probes with a push of a button, less risk
Loved first episode this season, keep up the good work, may your travels keep you safe.

Very nice! I've ridden a bicycle coast to coast once and a second time all over the plains, encountering lots of storms. Imagine riding your bike under something like that! That'll make your voice almost as high-pitched and squeaky as Reed's!
