WGGB-TV 6/1/11 Live Springfield MA Tower Cam Tornado

When he said if "we can go outside" he meant the camera crew and NOT everyone else. But he did take this sorta lightly, unlike other news stations did, Thank god I mainly rely on programming from Albany, NY.

I was watching this! And I started freaking out & then seconds after that out TV started to flicker & then went out completely! We soon figured out why as we saw our neighbors pointing at us to look behind our house & there it was. Didnt hit us but it was close & was headed toward my aunt, so I called her up & she got her kids & went to the basement, she just missed it cuz a few houses down were gone. She lives on Tinkim road, while we live near the 16 acres plaza!

Yeah about 2 mins he says get outside as its coming toward us...He deserves to lose his life if he takes it so lightly. Shame on him for telling people to take it lightly everyone just go outside get footage of an F-3 tornado and hope you don't lose your life in process...morons!

At 1:34 he says Not too severe I thought NWS verified it was an F-3????>

Then he says get outside does anyone in Springfield talk sensibly about severe weather? Ch 40 ...nope...Ch 3...nope...

Not too severe I thought NWS said it was an F-3????>

[cyberlucy]

@lionsforlyons I get that, but I don't agree that it looks like that in appearance in that picture.

[cyberlucy]

"Doesn't appear to be too severe"...wtf?
