 Forrester Media has earned a reputation for our work in severe weather. Working with broadcasters and independently, our team has captured the fury of Mother Nature on tape.
Springtime finds us in the Midwest to document tornado season. During a portion of the chase season, the Forrester team often travels with tornado expert Joshua Wurman of the Center for Severe Weather Research.
Since 1999 we've covered every major tropical system to impact the United States including Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne in 2004.
 In 2005, we endured Hurricanes Dennis, Katrina, Ophelia, Rita and Wilma for The Weather Channel, National Geographic and HDNet.
In 2008, we continued our work with The Weather Channel, covering Tropical Storm Fay, Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Hanna.
Our extreme weather footage has appeared on The Weather Channel, National Geographic Channel, The Weather Network (Canada), Discovery Networks, ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, a Texas instruments DLP television commercial as well as having been seen on numerous local stations around the country.
The Forrester Media team is available for coverage of severe weather during the hurricane and tornado seasons. Please contact Michael Forrester regarding fees and retainers.
EF-2 Tornado Strikes Downtown Atlanta
On Friday, March 14, 2008 at approximately 9:45PM, an EF-2 tornado packing winds of 130mph hit downtown Atlanta and traveled about 6 miles from the Vine City to Cabbagetown areas of the city. We tracked the storm from 9:00PM through the impact and provided live coverage of the aftermath for The Weather Channel on Saturday, March 15th with reporter Julie Martin and meteorologists Jim Cantore and Mike Seidel.
These photos were taken by Forrester Media staff while shooting HD footage of these hard-hit areas.
