The Love Of The Chase: Jenny and Shannon

About this Episode

Across Canada is a special group of women connected by one thing: a fearless curiosity about severe weather, and a passion to diversify the face of weather and science. They are a courageous community called Girls Who Chase. Their goal? To inspire, empower and equip girls and women to pursue storms, the sciences, and their passions. Jenny Hagan is the Girls Who Chase Canada Chapter Lead and an award-winning photographer. She has embarked on a journey of self-education, delving deep into the realms of forecasting and meteorology. Today, she passionately pursues storms across North America. Shannon is a landscape photographer from Manitoba.  After seeing her first tornado in real life in 2007, she bought a DSLR and committed to getting the perfect shot of lightning. Now, her photos of lightning strikes and auroras impress anyone who finds them, including Jenny. Shannon and Jenny eventually connected and became friends, mentors, and partners in storm chasing.
