[QUOTE="Kiyot, post: 2208025, member: 627"] I swear I heard Mike say something about getting underground or to drive away from it. That night was just the bad night to try to get away from it. You had a bad mix of construction and rush hour traffic going on. As soon as I saw it take a SE turn like it did we grabbed up our stuff and went to my work. Luckily it means I go west on I-240 which no one was going. It is hard for them to do what they do, and it is easy to armchair them the next day. I do say Mike tends to be more dramatic, and agree with whoever said it...seems like he does report stuff a little bit faster. I think sometimes it's because he'll go by just what he sees on his radar and make the call that there is a tornado there vs having a spotter tell him....again good and bad. I've always listened to Gary and he knows what he's doing. May 3rd, I think his dramatic "You have to be underground or you will die" type phrases really saved some people because as Okies we do get complacent and that kind of drama makes a lot of us think twice. Take for example May 20th I heard the sirens go off as I got home from the Warren, thinking of just the normal hail we would get, I went ahead and took my wife's parking spot in the garage (she was down at the Moore Medical center at my daughter's DR. appointment) and sat down in a chair in the garage watching the clouds. Wasn't until I saw the neighbors across the street come out and jump in the car and run that I thought, "I better go see what the news is saying" Sure enough reporting a damn wedge tornado coming up to 19th/I-35 in Moore. I started calling my wife and ended up making the decision based on how excited they were and seeing the damn thing on the t.v. to run as it was only 3-4 miles away. My wife and kid were fine, we lost a car...but it can be replaced, lots of respect to the people at the medical center for being calm and saving lives. On a lighter note, I do crack up listening to Mike and Emily talking. I think the 19th they sounded like they were domesticating on the air a couple times and now anytime I hear them talking to each other I hear an old bitter married couple, no matter how cordial they are being. And Emily herself cracks me up, couldn't stop laughing when she called a cloud "energetic and crispy" [/QUOTE]
