Mike Siedel and his crew have moved to Nags Head, NC.

"We've arrived at Nags Head, NC ahead of Hurricane Irene. This is the view from my room looking south. Al Roker will be live tonight on NBC Nightly News on the right near the dune and I'll be on the left closer to the water, 5-8 PM ET and back at 6 AM ET tomorrow."

Glad to hear he's coming back to New England.

Didn't they have about six people out in the field for Don the Dud also?

Won't this be Adam's first time out in the field for a hurricane? That'll be something.  :D

You know, it's kinda interesting Julie Martin was covering for Hurricane Dolly and hasn't been out on the field for a hurricane/tropical storm since. Also I don't know about anyone else, but I would like to see Carl out in a hurricane for once.

Can't remember. :no: But I don't remember this many field reporters for storms in previous years, so I guess TWC has expanded its live coverage "program"...probably to attract more viewers.

Carl Parker out in the field...that would be neat! Maybe he doesn't want to do it, though. :thinking:

Steph once reported from my town after that nor'easter back in November. Would be interesting to see Adam here.

I think Adam Berg is a great addition to the field team.  I also like when Paul Goodloe gets out there.

I'm surprised he wasn't sent out, but maybe since he was sick the other day...

Except for the LDL, i'm shocked that TWC is not in Red Mode yet, yet alone Storm Alert (If there is a Storm Alert anymore) Could TWC be getting the red stuff ready for Storm Alert?  I wonder if we'll see a L Bar like we did for Earl??

Me neither. I think TWC will go into some alert mode tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully they will bring it back

I think what were seeing now is about as close to a Storm Alert were going to get. In fact, I believe it will be like it was pre 2005 when they went into Storm Alert (called "Alert Mode" back then) and I wouldn't be surprised if we see limited to no local forecasts shown similar to what they do during severe weather events this year so they can extend their live programming once Irene makes the first landfall in NC. We'll probably be seeing the LF squeeze back occasionally on air.
