After 3 seasons filled with amazing conversations about all things weather and life, Gabe and Jeremy have decided to turn the page to a new chapter of creative endeavors outside the world of weather. This bittersweet final episode is a dedication to the podcast, the listeners, and what lies next for both Gabe and Jeremy. Thank you all so much for the love and support over the years. We love and appreciate all of you more than you know. Stay safe out there, love your neighbors well and remember to keep looking up!

Storm chaser Max Olson joins us on this episode of the StormReel podcast to talk about his harrowing experience chasing the monstrous and historic Hurricane Melissa, a Category 5 beast whose 185mph sustained winds devastated the island of Jamaica. As the eyewall moved in, Max and his chase partners found themselves in survival mode after barricading their door shut with furniture. Hunkered down in the bathroom, they could only listen as the world outside their shelter was ripped apart. Max also shares the story behind the most iconic and intense storm surge video ever captured after he placed a remote camera in the path of Hurricane Ian in 2022. Unbeknownst to Max at the time, his camera had filmed an epic story of survival as a couple and their dogs were swept away by storm surge while still inside their home. It's an episode you don't want to miss!
