Wild Weather

Wild Weather follows American meteorologist Reed Timmer, together with a bizarre tornado-proof armored car called The Dominator 3, as he attempts to do something never done before: fire a flying probe right into the heart of a tornado! "Near the base of the tornado is one of the biggest mysteries of tornado science and it’s also the most important to understand," Reed explains.

The best way to truly understand weather is to get inside it. Wild Weather introduces a global group of experts who risk their lives to demonstrate the power of wind, water and temperature, taking these simple “ingredients” and transforming them into something spectacular and powerful for everyone to understand.

Doctor Kazunori Kuwana from Yamagata University, Japan has spent the last 10 years trying to capture the rare moment that can turn a bushfire into a formidable fire whirlwind. In Wild Weather he fulfills a lifelong ambition by starting a 10-meter high fire whirl of his own.
