    The first of the seminal VORTEX projects occurred in 1994–1995 [19] and was soon followed by various field experiments each spring, with another large project, VORTEX2, [20] in 2009–2010. [21] Since the mid-1990s, most storm chasing science, with the notable exception of large field projects, consists of mobile Doppler weather radar intercepts.
