Tempest Operations Group

T.O.G · Veteran-Led Storm Chasing Unit

WHO WE ARE

Tempest Operations Group (T.O.G) is a group of veterans who storm chase. We are a veteran-led storm chasing unit operating on discipline, precision, and experience. Built on backgrounds in Search & Rescue (SAR) and Survival, Evasion, Resistance & Escape (SERE), we specialize in severe weather interception, situational awareness, and real-time field response.

MISSION

We chase the storms that pose a threat — not for the spectacle, but to help the people in their path. Every deployment is a chance to deliver ground truth, warn communities earlier, and put trained eyes where they matter most.

DOCTRINE
  • ◉ Discipline before adrenaline
  • ◉ Precision in positioning and reporting
  • ◉ Experience-driven decisions, not guesswork
  • ◉ Service to the communities in the path
CAPABILITIES
  • → Severe weather interception
  • → Real-time situational awareness
  • → Field reporting & ground truth
  • → Coordinated response under pressure
BACKGROUND

Our operators bring military and emergency response training — SAR, SERE, and years downrange — to the field. The same mindset that brings people home from the worst days of their lives is what we bring to the leading edge of a supercell.
