Stormtrack was the first magazine for and about storm chasing. It was started in 1977 by chasing pioneer David Hoadley, following an informal meeting of storm chasers at an American Meteorological Society conference. The magazine was published bi-monthly. In 1986 editorship was handed over to Tim Marshall, a storm damage engineer. Production of paper issues ceased in 2002 after a 25-year run, however the online version was started in 1996 and continues to this day primarily in the form of a large discussion board.
