It may be hurricane season around these parts, but this actress is all about another, different weather event.

Daisy Edgar Jones stars in “Twisters,” a sequel to the 1996 adventure movie about intrepid meet reckless storm chasers who rush toward a tornado while others flee for their lives.

The native Brit was in Miami recently for the premiere of the actioner, out next Friday, at the Silverspot Cinema downtown.

Rocking a sleek orange mini dress, Jones walked the red carpet and also showed off her outfit for viewers at home on Instagram.

The 26-year-old who plays Kate, a troubled meteorologist, was able to mix pleasure with business. On her carousel of snapshots, she’s seen doing 305 things like hanging at the beach and on a boat.

So did Jones ever encounter any actual tornadoes while shooting?

“I was desperate to see one,” the “Normal People” star told Variety about how the cast followed a team tracking a storm from Kansas to Oklahoma City, which fortunately fizzled. “I was like, ‘Oh, my God, I’m genuinely scared, but also exhilarated.

“What a rush — all that planning for one moment of madness.”
