varies widely, because of the level of chasing you are trying to do. if you want to go simple all you need is a laptop with internet and a cellphone. Threatnet is a good tool to use if you don't have internet you buy the equipment $500 and then rent a radio and your good to go. if you want to be a hightech chaser you could get gps, camera, video camera, and so on.
you will need a radar
People who study tornadoes are a type of meteorologist.
Arizona does get tornadoes from time to time. But they are relative rare because Arixona is a dry state that doesn't get many thunderstorms, and tornadoes need thunderstoms to form.
There actually are tornadoes in California, but most of them are weak. California has a fairly dry climate and most of the rain it does get comes from broad rain showers. Tornadoes need strong thunderstorms to form.
it is unknown. global warming may increase or decrease tornadoes, more studies need to be done to determine this.

chase
Meteorologists chase tornadoes because they can conduct research to better understand and predict them. Many storm chasers, though are not meteorologists, and just chase for the thrill or because tornadoes fascinate them.
No, tornadoes do not chase people or respond to them in any way. Though to a person unfortunate enough to be in the path of a tornado it can feel like being chased.
They are called storm chasers.
There are a number of reasons. Some do it for the thrill. Some people find tornadoes to be irresistibly fascinating. Some people who chase tornadoes are spotters. They can report where a tornado is, which helps warn people who may be in the path. A few people who chase tornadoes are scientists whose goal is to study tornadoes and gain a better understanding of them. Some of the information they gather could improve tornado prediction.
We don't need tornadoes. They cause death and destruction.

yes
Tornadoes need thunderstorms to form.
No. You wouldn't want to fly into a tornado; a hurricane is just about the limit there.
perhaps by a helicopter. if you were on land you would drown. you have to be high up during a hurricane and a helicopter can go high enogh but close enough to chase a hurrican. but you cant really chase a hurricane. you can watch bu not chase. that's what tornadoes are for.
