Parts of Australia are preparing for nine days of torrential downpour as a massive rain bomb hovers over the east coast bringing the threat of widespread flash flooding.
On Wednesday, multiple tornadoes were confirmed across Texas and Oklahoma, providing storm chasers with some of the most beautiful tornado photos available. However, when night fell, one storm scared a lot of chasers.
Police are warning Queenslanders to avoid unnecessary travel, including for holidays or work, with the downpours expected to begin from Tuesday.
Meteorology student Nicholas K. Nair, 20, crashed after chasing storms Friday evening.
“Storm chasing was his passion,” said the mother of one of the students killed in a highway crash involving a tractor-trailer in northern Oklahoma.
