Kassidy's mother; still in love with Bill, but has to hide it; loves Kassidy as much as she loves storms
Kass, come here. How’s life with Dad been, kiddo?
So be straight with me, hon. What’s really been going on with you? (K: It’s nothing really.) I don’t believe you. Come on, I’m your mom. I know when you’re lying.
You’ve never seen it miss this house, and miss that house, and come after you!!
17-year-old girl; storm-lover; headstrong and stubborn; angry with both her parents, but mostly her dad
(to Melissa) Please don’t talk to my mother like that. (M: I thought you didn’t even like her.) No, I’m angry with her. There’s a difference. And no matter what, she’s still my mom, and you’re about to replace her, so just show her a little decency, please.
(releasing several years of pent-up frustration) Dad, do you hear what they’re saying in there? They’re calling you ‘The Extreme’ and talking about all these crazy things you did! Did it ever occur to you that maybe I wanted a piece of that? I’ve loved storms ever since I can remember. I mean, I’m a Harding. It’s in my blood.
Listen, Jonas. Get your head out of your butt and go back to being the burger mascot at Brad’s Burgers.
one of the storm-chasers; responsible for filming the tornados
We got a touchdown, touchdown, tornado is on the ground!
I was thinking, it may not be too bad of an idea if we just got out of here. ‘Cause that was definitely too many tornadoes back there…
one of the storm-chasers; Beltzer's partner
We got major action! The NSSL says the caps are breaking, the tower’s going up to 30 miles up the dryline!
You got it guys, the sensors worked!
Kassidy smiled, happy that she would get to spend more time with her old friends for at least a little while longer. It was better than going back home. Anything was better than that.
Kassidy knew that story just fine. The story of how her mother’s dad was ripped away from her by a twister when she was only a little girl. She headed outside to get some air, all of a sudden feeling very suffocated.
Kassidy could never put into words what happened after that. She was right in the very center of a huge tornado. She could see the blue sky at the very top and it was by far the most exhilarating moment of her life.
Kassidy's father; hothead; engaged to Melissa, but his feelings are rekindled for Jo; loves Kassidy, but has been a little neglectful since the split
You stole my design!! What’d you think, I wasn’t gonna find out about this?!
Kassidy, what’s going on with you? I’m getting a little sick of your attitude.
(admittedly to Kassidy) Look…I’ve really messed up. A lot, and I’m so sorry. Nearly everything you said was right...I should’ve been there for you more.
Bill's fiancee; can see that Jo is still in love with Bill; strong Southern accent
You know what, honey, I find this kind of interesting. I’m gonna tag along!
(to Jo) You’re still in love with him, aren’t you? Not that I blame you. I just hope this isn’t some desperate attempt to keep him in your life.
Look, to be honest, I don’t think Kassidy was ever ready for someone to replace her mother. But I guess I was just so smitten with you that I didn’t think about it. Well, now it’s time to start thinking about her. I don’t want you to lose your daughter, and I certainly don’t want to be the one to come between you two.
one the storm-chasers; immature, but lovable; loves Kassidy
(upon seeing her for the first time in several years) I don’t believe it! Kassie?!
Hey, Kassie, did you see what happened between your dad and Melissa? She broke up with him.
Jo, Bill, Kassie, you all right? Can you guys hear me? You okay?
one of the storm-chasers; responsible for giving directions
Trust me. Rabbit is good, Rabbit is wise.
Hey, you know what, uh, Jo, somebody couldn’t help but notice how close we are to Wakita.
one of the storm-chasers; wind tracker
This is gonna be good.
Alright, you got it boss! We're back in business!
one of the storm-chasers; drives the team around
This is Sanders, this is Sanders! We’re driving due east on a country road we’ve been on for about 6 miles. We’ve got an F3, two sitting on the ground, and she’s a beauty!
Hey, Jo, Bill, Kassidy, check out that sky!
one of the storm-chasers; responsible for tracking the storms
And this loser stumbles out of the car, he’s got like, a bottle of Jack Daniels in his hand. He’s naked.
(bandaging up a cut on Kassidy's head) You're lucky you know. The damage could have been a lot more serious.
one of the storm-chasers
Bill is the most out-of-control guy in the game!
No, that was a good size twister. What was that, an F3?
Jo and Bill's rival who steals their design to better predict storms
Hey, guys, can you get this loser off me?
You’re insane, Jo! What are you trying to do, get somebody killed?!
Jo's aunt who feeds the team of storm-chasers and is like family to all of them
(upon seeing Kassidy for the first time in several years) Kassidy, is that you??
(to Kassidy after a tornado hits) It looks like you’ve gotten a little beaten up too. (K: Don’t worry about me. I’m tougher than I look.) You get that from your parents.
