Shit!!! Now he's sitting on 49 looking straight toward my house!!!!!!

Thankfully it's best was not good enough!Quote:

Oh man you're in for it now! You weren't supposed to notice that! That's the exhaust plumes from a squadron of those new 'secret' jets we fly out of Area 51. Please remain where you are and some nice gentlemen wearing black suits and Raybans will be by shortly to debrief you.Quote:

Keep going!"Quote:

If I hear warning, debris ball, rotation, radar, or tornado one more ****ing time I'm gonna puke. The last 2 days feel like a month.
The lack of sleep doesn't help. I was without electricity a lot last night. Long story, but I didn't sleep much.
Regardless, I have a roof over my head and a healthy family so I need to feel blessed and greatful for that.
How long to kickoff?
That was him, he was pissed off everyone in the world was calling him wanting a comment about where he was and seeing. I picked him up right after the Tupelo tornado, he was heading south on 45 and trying to find a to to head west and kept looking at small roads nope, i flipped around to some other streams when he turned around and headed north and then turned around again, next thing i knew he was in west point and i figured he would catch 50 west instead they start screaming about the southern most storm that was blowing up around noxapater i think. Well they high tale it down 45 all the while while bretts yelling I don't care if the president of the us calls i aint answering it. the high comedy of that was later he gave out his number on the air on the phone. So they take a right towards starksville and okkTibewho county and catch 182 into campus and then the make the classic mistake and catch 12 EAST and you hear someone saying why are we going east, no were not. yes we are. oh that's better so they end up back on 82, hey werent we just on 82? and catch 25 south to around the refuge when they realize they are now directly north of the storm and they start freaking out about how rough it was and to retreat back, lets take this poor house road it will get us to 45...ugh no.Quote:

I mean seriously, you are a storm chaser and someone in your car cant use a freaking gps or google maps. were they trying to thumb through a mapsco or something?
I only put him on because i thought I recognized his name from somewhere and his twitter says he is a MSU meteorology student. Well he sure hasn't ever been in this GTR area much if any it seemed like (yes im aware a lot of people take the degree online).
He kept broadcasting all the way back to Birmingham where he lives as the storms picking up there at night.
