Thank you Thunderman.

Yes we spend 6 to 8 weeks each year in the States during the height of the spring storm season. There are in fact many Australians that head over each year.

The "team" thing exists more in the world of social media than in the real world I'm afraid. There are quite literally thousands of chasers out there all working to get the shots to make it to air each night and most of them that I know aren't really interested in what anyone else is doing, in fact most would run their best mate over to get the money shot! Very much an individual pursuit I'm afraid
