The TT shutting down comments made me all, parallel universe! Where there was another group, the disco ball folks, who went basically the same path as us, albeit through the Atlantic first, but then WX and then built their own. I'm curious to see what their iteration looks like.
I guess I'm okay with TT not archiving. I mean, I'm glad we have our stuff, but that was a while ago, so.
And what ever happened to the pancaquistas??
Yesterday I stumbled across a streaming weather report out of Oklahoma City and was sucked in for 2-3 hours. Their coverage was amazing. They had 2 helicopters and at least 2 spotter vehicles on the ground and they were giving people such specific information. Sunday night I found good coverage from a Springfield TV station that was covering all of SW MO and NW Arkansas.
The only streaming report I can get out of KC is seriously lame (all other stations want me to install a plug-in, which I have no patience for at the moment). I've got text only updates from the channel I want to be watching. Frustrating.
Jesse,
I think they created their own place too.
Oh, now I'm terribly curious what all that user-generated places look like!
12:59PM | Gary Lezak reports as many as 12 to 14 tornadoes have touched down in Kansas City area in last 90 minutes.
Fuck. Erin lives just outside of KC on the Kansas side, and I have friends on the MO side.
Oh, amyth, if you didn't click Frankenbuddha's link, you should really scroll up and do that.
I haven't seen reports of damage or injuries in the KC area. Sedalia took a hit though.
I just saw a report that people in the Governor's Mansion have been herded into the basement, so there must be something around Jeff City, too.
Wishes for safety to all Buffistas and Buffista friends and family in tornado and tornado adjacent regions.
Oh, now I'm terribly curious what all that user-generated places look like!
Me too.
I really want erin and Gud to check in!
