Beth Allan used to be terrified of storms.
In 2007, her mom decided she needed to face her fears head on. She signed up Allan for a storm-chasing tour — and she was hooked.
“The first time you see a storm, that adrenaline rush — it’s like skydiving, right? You chase that forever.”
Allan, who lives in Calgary, is the only female member of Prairie Storm Chasers. She’s noticed a lot more people interested in storm chasing this summer compared with previous years, especially women who are looking for the same exhilarating experience.
Storm chaser Beth Allan says photographing severe weather is an adrenaline rush.
