Wild Weather follows American meteorologist Reed Timmer, together with a bizarre tornado-proof armored car called The Dominator 3, as he attempts to do something never done before: fire a flying probe right into the heart of a tornado! "Near the base of the tornado is one of the biggest mysteries of tornado science and it’s also the most important to understand," Reed explains.
