It wasn’t the TV stations that escalated this storm to the highest level of storm danger, Tornado Warning, it was our National Weather Service. And that service has spent billions of tax dollars over the years on technology to keep us better informed and prepared when there is a clear and present danger.
Very, very well said. We can watch these programs on any night of the week but we only have one chance to take cover when a tornado is bearing down on us.
