How much money do storm chasers make?

Answer 1

Storm chasers do not make a lot of money. Don't let this get in the way of wanting to be one, just you might want to know this.

Storm chasers spend a lot of money on equipment for the season. The first two or three seasons will be a big loss of money. Then again, some chasers make quite a lot. If you are famous, Reed Timmer, you will probably make a little more. Or if you film or capture data from a famous storm or record breaking tornado could bring in some extra cash.

Hope this didn't disappoint :( storm chasing might be more of a hobby. Notice, most storm chasers are usually meteorologists.
