The Storm Chaser Test! Are You Ready? 10.19.08 @ 10:08P ET

After a long time of requests and questions about storm chasing, I'm happy to present something really cool... This new addition to the site will allow visitors to test their knowledge of storm chasing and get a custom score page when finished. Each test asks common questions regarding severe weather and specifically storm chasing in general. How much do you know about storm chasing? Find out.

The new test offers multiple choice answers for 14 questions which are randomly generated. That means you can retake the test and it will give you a new set of questions each time. There is no time limit on this. However, there are correct answers so make sure you review your choices before submitting for a final grade!

If you would like to add some new questions just use the contact form and provide feedback. The questions on the test are based on widely available data and a general consensus of the atmospheric science community.

If you're ready to try the test, click here. Take your time and good luck!

COOL STUFF: EDITORS' PICKS

Don't worry about reaching computers or running wires anymore. TP-LINK's Powerline Kit turns your home power outlets into internet jacks. You the devices in, synchronize them, then you're online in seconds. It's easy, secure, and a great alternative for those who don't like wireless or can't use a wireless router. Available at Micro Center and NewEgg.

CHECK IT OUT: GIFTS & GADGETS

This is actually a pretty cool idea from RadioShack. Under $10 dollars each, these micro robots have sensors that will aide them around obstacles. You can get them in different colors and they are powered by a small replaceable battery. Recommended for ages 8 and up available in multiple colors. Watch out because these could also scare people with their moving legs! Stop by your local store to see the other creatures they have.

QUICK TECH TIPS: FOR HOME & WORK

Nearly every home has a computer or electronics, so why not protect them? One of the best investments you can make is to get a UPS system. These deliver Uninterruptible Power Supply to your electronics feeding them clean power and help prevent lightning and other electrical damage. You should use a UPS system especially for expensive electronics and computers. Prices range from $49 and up at most major retails, well worth the cost.
