In the spring of 2021, an already volatile spring storm season produces a giant severe weather outbreak that ravages west Texas and Oklahoma. As the storms approach the highly populated Dallas-Fort Worth Metro area, the conditions are coming together for the ultimate, giant tornado outbreak.
Justin and his wife Hannah once chased storms with and against the greatest, defying death and collecting priceless scientific data to better understand the elusive creature, the tornado. But that was twelve years ago. Now they're older, and he's a coffee shop owner and she's a housewife who does accounting as a side business.
But when they see that an already devastating tornado outbreak is becoming more powerful and heading for highly populated areas, they cannot ignore the call back to duty. They attempt to recruit the best: an IMAX filmmaker who has retired to California with his family, an aging leading scientist whom the former has a grudge against, an extreme meteorologist and an engineer, both of whom suffered devastating losses of fellow chasers.
Together, they will have to work to put aside their differences, repair broken friendships and rivalries, confront nature at its worst and even stand up to corrupt government officials who care more about reelection and their bank account than the well-being of millions of citizens.
The chase is on as our chasers go into the belly of the beast, right into the heart of the fiercest, strongest, fastest and most terrifying storms that humans have ever seen.

Once, long ago, Zahra Howard liked to consider herself fearless. Whether it was a car going faster than humanly possible, illegally racing down the rural roads of Oklahoma, or even chasing its tornadoes. She never seemed to fear anything.
Until she did...
And after that, she promised she'd never go back. She promised she'd never get that close again.
Until, five years later, while she's busy sticking to that promise with determination, the past comes knocking on her door, asking for a favor. She could say no. It would be easy to say no.
But the thing about her was once she cared; it was hard to let go. Even if she tried. And somehow, that made saying no harder than the alternative.
Which is how she broke her own promise. How she ended up back here in Oklahoma, and right during an unprecedented tornado outbreak ravaging the place she'd once called home.
