As a poor man's version I use IFTTT to pull in the SPC MD RSS feed then search by the WFO's listed at the bottom of the discussion. For example if I only wanted MD's surrounding Kansas City I would search by "EAX". Then use pushbullet to push that directly to my phone.
Unfortunately, season 5 only seems to be available outside the US. You’ll also need a DVD player that’s able to play foreign dvds (Xbox or PlayStation should work if you have one).
Also make sure to check eBay as well. People give it a negative stigma but I’ve had better experiences with eBay than Amazon. If I pay extra to have a package delivered earlier, it usually came a week after the delivery date. And their pricing is just ridiculous sometimes. eBay has not messed up an order once for me. But if you prefer amazon, this is all I could find.
Seriously though, try other sites like eBay for a better chance of a cheaper price. They’re not as bad as people say. At least from my own personal experiences.
I've never tried this app, I just searched because you got me curious. The reviews look pretty good and it seems to offer pretty much what you are asking for. For $2 you can spring for the add free version.
This is a commonly believed but very incorrect myth. A small layer of rubber does not matter in the context of the distances and voltages involved with lightning.
It's not primarily for storm chasing, but last week I published this for android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.silverwraith.tornadowatch I'm working on an iPhone version now (hopefully be done in the next week). It's a way for a storm-spotter (professional, amateur or armchair!) to quickly warn other people within 20 miles that a tornado has been spotted.
I'm currently trying to get as many people on board a possible. We have a few hundred users across the big cities in OK and TX, and more people using it spread out across AR, MO, LA, etc. Apps like this depend on critical mass though. If a few storm chasers started using it I bet it would be pretty awesome :-)
(The big reason for making this app was that getting information to the public about tornadoes takes too long - 5 to 10 minutes from the first sighting. With this app we've gotten it down to about 10 seconds. Now we just need more users.)
Not sure if a book is a appropriate, but I love this one. It's written by Mike Hollingshead, one of my favorite storm photographers and Eric Nguyen. It's a fantastic book with lots of pictures, and great stories.
