Good for him. It was a really dangerous situation and the local news did its job well to cut in on the programming.
Agree. My local channels here in DFW cut in on programs frequently to advise of severe storms/possible tornadoes and use the radar scans to show location and movement.
There have been times when they stay live for hours instead of showing scheduled programs.
I seldom watch local channels, as I prefer cable. When it’s storming outside, however, I always check the locals.
