He was an organizer of and participant in the Bow Echo and Mesoscale Convective Vortex Experiment (BAMEX) of 2003[2] and a researcher with the Pre-STORM Project of 1985.

He intensively studied quasi-linear thunderstorms and their associated winds and tornadoes throughout the 1980s, writing a seminal paper in 1995.

[3] Subjects in which he made substantial contributions include derechos, mesoscale convective vortices (MCV), rear-inflow jets (RIJ), line echo wave patterns (LEWP), and high-precipitation (HP) supercells.

He served on the American Meteorological Society (AMS) Severe Local Storms Committee and as a Councilor of the National Weather Association (NWA).

[6] Przybylinski was an avid amateur radio operator, he dabbled in storm chasing, and he enjoyed gardening, in his spare time.
