THEY DESERVE A BONUS
The staff of the NWS Forecast Office in Ft. Worth have got to be totally exhausted. A major outbreak of severe storms last night with thousands of lightning strikes only to find themselves issuing some tornado warnings this afternoon. It seems to never end. I am sure our friend, Kevin Selle with TCN (Texas Cable Network), is having a rough day also. He is the chief meteorologist. You may remember him in earlier days in Birmingham when he went under the screen name of Kevin Collins. He worked the famous Blizzard of ’93 with James.
