They've moved to the small LDL as of 6:30 PM ET. I guess they want more screen real estate should something happen Vortex2-wise.

Right. The Vortex2 team would never put themselves in harm's way. They're all trained meteorologists who know and realize the potential dangers and how to keep themselves safe in a dangerous situation.

In fact, we just saw a live report from him. Don't worry.

What we have to worry about are the less intelligent folks or those who don't get the warnings. Pointless loss of life

Unfortunately, I see a news article stating that four people have died in Oklahoma according to emergency officials.

It's OK, you two. :) ;) Mike Bettes knows plenty about tornadoes, etc. to be smart enough to evacuate and save his life. :yes: As Martin said, we need to be worried about those who disregard things like these.
