We had a very mild winter and a very early spring. I hope it's not like
last year all over again. You guys keep all that tornado shit down
there. I will have no more of it.

What many people do not know is we had massive straight line winds
early that morning (in addition to other tornadoes) and many parts of
our state were without power during that huge outbreak. After the
outbreak, we didn't have power for nearly a week.
Watched some of the early morning coverage recently posted on youtube
late last night - the last hour or so (really two hours) as the on-air
guys were starting to get some damage reports in - - their tone really
changed....

Here is the infamous coverage of the event as it happened...

I was actually out checking on a tower that had been without power
since that morning as this thing spun up - i almost
drove right into it. There is a picture of the sky from about 30
minutes before (while i was at that tower) hanging in
our conference room. My dad's office shows several damage photos
from that day.
Lots of coverage on youtube - - our state is buzzing about this
today....and really this week
