Yes, KSHB's weather coverage is considered some of the best, if not THE best, in at least the Kansas City metro area, possibly for both Kansas and Missouri as a whole. Gary Lezak is Kansas City's answer to Gary England, if you will. He has been considered the most accurate meterologist in Kansas City since 1992, and he only became head honcho over at KSHB nine years ago.

Here's part two, which I decided to go ahead and put up:

This clip is longer, it's 10 minutes even. I'll start working on part three, when I get the chance.

Totally Arch Kennedy. He sticks out in my mind, because I used to laugh at his name when I was a youngster.

This story was also covered on today's TMZ on syndicated TV according to the promos I saw earlier. This story is really starting to get hot!

Yeah, I recorded that bit tonight. Now if only I could get footage from my TV to the computer without a problem, I'd put it up on YouTube. ¬_¬
You could get a TV Tuner or record it with a camera. PM me on details...

I think we do, but just not on MY TV. Ain't that grand?

After I get more of the tornado warning coverage up on my YouTube, I'll definetly figure out a way to get the TMZ clip up.

General Discussion / May 1st, 2008 Kansas City tornado warning coverage

« on: May 09, 2008, 03:23:20 AM »

This is my very first video, with tornado warning coverage for my area, and probably one of very few for Kansas City, on YouTube, so this is a proud achievement, for me.

This is the first part of (I don't know how many, yet) several more clips to follow. The weather break in starts just a minute before the first tornado warning for the immediate metro area is issued.

I added a 'dramatic introduction' to get you pumped up.

Also included are shots of what the sky looked like just minutes before all Hell started breaking loose, around the area.

While I do have most clips of what happened in the early evening, I do not have footage of the bow echo system that came through after midnight, which produced several embedded tornadoes and destroyed many houses, up north. This is just my first time, so if anything else were to happen here, and being that I'm in the Midwest, it will, I'll try to get better coverage... This was all taken during the Thursday night programming line up, while we were out eating, so unfortunately, any coverage during Scrubs or 30 Rock was missed.

But enough of my long winded rambling, just watch the damn clip!

Part two's coming, soon!

Born in Merriam, Kansas (but was living in Overland Park, at the time)...lived in Overland Park for four years.

Moved to St. Joseph, Missouri, lived there for two years.

Moved back to Overland Park, KS, moving around from one apartment to the next.

Moved to Independence, MO with my *gag* step "family", lived there for four years. (long story, don't ask)

Moved to Liberty, MO, again with my step family, lived there for a few months before I went to live back with my mom. (again, don't ask)

And now I'm here in Kansas City, MO.... finally living in a house. *thud*
