I don’t understand why it was removed from “Breaking” since it such an important issue.
Tornado Warning issued for Wilcox Co, AL

Well, a lot of people were abusing breaking by putting every tornado watch box or warning in breaking news.
It’s difficult to convey the difference between a potentially historic outbreak like today and a sort of routine Spring day with some possible tornadoes.
But if you note the tornadoes are Muslim, Gay, or Mexican, you might have a chance to keep a thread like this in “breaking.”
