It rained today in Oklahoma City and a tornado briefly traveled over the top of an unpopulated county in western Oklahoma. (No. I did not mean an unpopulated part of the county). Thus, the local news tonight consisted of 20 minutes of storm chaser stories and 10 minutes of sports. OU football starting spring practice in particular, the condition of the 3rd string quarterback’s small toe on his throwing foot, etc. So, how long until broadcast news is dead too? Not soon enough.Oh yes, I almost forgot. The local station preempted the national news so that its heroic meteorologisty guy could save the lives of all 10 people in Dewey County from what he thought looked like the dreaded radar “hook echo”.
