Storm chasers are one thing. I love it when during a snowstorm authorities & TV anchors tell us to stay off the roads then the TV station goes out and gives us road reports.
When I was a boy, living in Texas, we never worried about tornadoes unless you could see a funnel cloud. On my last visit to Texas, programs were constantly interrupted by chyons warning about a tornado watch HUNDREDS of miles away.
The reports really are overdone. Every time there are “conditions right for a tornado to develop” within 500 miles, they interrupt programming for hours. I’d like to know the original report, as a map on the screen for a minute or so, with information as to which direction it’s heading. But, then just put a crawler on the bottom of the screen and quit interrupting Jeopardy. Not getting my daily dose of Jeopardy is my definition of a crisis.

Nothing is more entertaining than storm chasers catching the storm with giant hail by the tornado.

Eno’s never experienced a tornado, but he has experienced a titty twister.

The same with high winds warnings, the surfers say “Surf’s up”.

Cowinka-dinkle timing for this comic. Twister was on again a couple nights ago. ( For what seems like the 1500th time… )
