SIGNS
SIGNS THAT WERE DAMAGED. I ALSO KNOW WE HAD STORMS.
WE HAD KEVIN REECE THERE.
GIVE ME AN UPDATE OF WHAT
YOU'RE SEEING.
YOU'RE SEEING. YOU'RE KIND OF RIGHT THERE ON
THE SOUTH END OF THIS AT THIS
POINT.
POINT.
POINT. >>
POINT. >> WELL, YEAH, WE ARE.
HEADED TO FORT WORTH A LITTLE
BIT.
BIT.
BIT. AND
BIT. AND WANTING TO TURN AROUND TO
WHERE THIS STORM IS TRACKING.
YEAH, WE JUST MADE THAT TURN ON
121 NORTH, LEAVING DFW AIRPORT,
ON THE WAY TOWARD CAPEL.
AND I ASSUME YOU CAN SEE OUR
CAMERA RIGHT NOW.
AND I'LL JUST KEEP THIS
WINDSHIELD WIPER GOING.
BECAUSE THIS RAIN HAS BEEN
CONTINUOUS, EVER SINCE WE
LANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS.
NOT AS MUCH FROM THIS VANTAGE
POINT AS MUCH LIGHTNING AS WE
SAW EARLIER.
SAW EARLIER. BUT QUITE POSSIBLY AS YOU GUYS
SAID, THAT'S JUST BECAUSE THIS
RAIN WRAP.
RAIN WRAP. WE CAN'T SEE IT AS MUCH
ANYMORE.
ANYMORE.
ANYMORE. I CAN TELL PEOPLE THAT, AS YOU
HAVE BEEN WARNING THEM OF THE
ROADS, CERTAINLY NOT THE PLACE
TO BE.
TO BE.
TO BE. EVEN THOUGH WE'RE OUT HERE IN
IT, OF COURSE.
A LOT OF PEOPLE WHEN THIS RAIN
GETS SUPER HEAVY, ARE STOPPING
UNDER OVERPASSES AND PARKING
FOR A WHILE.
SO BE AWARE OF.
THAT
THAT
THAT WE'VE HAD PLENTY OF PONDING ON
THE ROADS AS WELL.
A LOT OF SLOW SPOTS ON 121 AND
114.
114.
114. WITH
114. WITH ENOUGH WATER TO CAUSE A
PROBLEM.
PROBLEM.
PROBLEM. BUT RIGHT NOW, THIS IS THE VIEW
WE HAVE.
WE HAVE.
WE HAVE. HEADED NEGOTIATE TOWARD CAPEL.
AND THIS -- AND LOUISVILLE,
FLOWER MOUNTAIN WOULD BE OFF TO
THE LEFT OF YOUR PICTURE RIGHT
NOW.
NOW.
NOW. BUT
NOW. BUT BE CAREFUL OUT HERE.
WE HAVEN'T SEEN ANY DAMAGE, PER
SE, WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT
LOOKING FOR THE ROTATION.
ANY DAMAGE IT MIGHT CAUSE.
BUT HEAVY, HEAVY RAIN.
A LOT OF LIGHTNING.
ENOUGH TO BE WORRIED ABOUT FOR
NOW.
NOW.
NOW. >>
NOW. >> AND KEVIN, WE'RE GOING TO
KEEP ON YOUR SHOT HERE FOR JUST
A SECOND.
A SECOND.
A SECOND. YOU'RE NORTHBOUND NOW.
HEADING UP TOWARD LOUISVILLE IN
THAT GENERAL DIRECTION.
IS THAT CORRECT?
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
>> WHAT WE'RE SEEING NOW ON
DOPPLER RADAR.
DOPPLER RADAR. >> 21 NEGOTIATE.
GO AHEAD.
GO AHEAD.
GO AHEAD. >> OKAY.
>> OKAY.
>> OKAY. SO YOU'RE 121 NORTH.
SO YOU'RE GOING TO KIND OF
INTERSECT 35, 35E HERE SHORTLY.
WHAT WE'RE SEEING HERE ON
DOPPLER RADAR.
DOPPLER RADAR. CAN WE DOUBLE-BOX DOPPLER RADAR
HERE, SO WE CAN SEE WHERE KEVIN
IS.
IS.
IS. IF
IS. IF UP
IS. IF UP IN THE CONTROL ROOM, YOU
CAN TAKE WEATHER 49 NOW.
AND WE CAN PUT A DOUBLE BOX ON
THERE.
THERE.
THERE. WE
THERE. WE CAN KIND OF SEE JUST EXACTLY
WHAT US HUMANS WOULD SEE, AS
WE'RE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.
OR MAYBE WHAT WE'RE
EXPERIENCING AT HOME.
IN ADDITION TO THAT, YOU CAN
ALSO SEE THE RADAR.
AND SEE JUST EXACTLY WHERE
KEVIN IS.
KEVIN IS.
KEVIN IS. BUT WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT, AT
THAT POINT IS, YOU CAN SEE
WHERE KEVIN IS.
I KNOW WE HAVE GARY ULTEE.
BUT WHAT WE'RE SEEING RIGHT NOW
IS VERY, VERY WEAK, KIND OF
VERY BROAD ROTATION, IF YOU
WILL, AS WE COME OUT IN THE
CHROMA KEY.
CHROMA KEY. SO FAIRLY BROAD -- THAT'S
MAGIC, ISN'T IT?
SO FAIRLY BROAD ROTATION RIGHT
NOW.
NOW.
NOW. SO
NOW. SO YOU CAN SEE.
HERE'S THE NORTH SIDE OF THE
AIRPORT RIGHT NOW.
THERE'S 35E.
THERE'S 35E. SO HE'S ON -- GOING TO GET UP
ON 121.
ON 121.
ON 121. AND AS WE GO BACK TO THAT
DOUBLE BOX.
DOUBLE BOX. LET'S SEE WHAT THAT LOOK LIKE.
GO AHEAD AND PUT THAT ON CAMERA
ON THE AIR RIGHT NOW.
WE WILL SEE WHAT THAT BEING
LOOS LIKE.
LOOS LIKE. AS KYLE SAID, THIS IS REALLY
BROAD ROTATION AT THIS POINT.
THERE'S NO GREAT DOPPLER RADAR
SIGNATURE THAT WOULD SHOW US WE
HAVE STRONG ROTATION.
AT THE SURFACE.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE
STRONG ROTATION ALOFT RIGHT
NOW.
NOW.
NOW. BUT
NOW. BUT IT'S FAIRLY WEAK ROTATION.
THE COLORS AREN'T AS TIGHT.
COLORS AREN'T AS -- HERE'S OUR
SCALE.
SCALE.
SCALE. YOU CAN SEE WHEN THEY'RE AT THE
OPPOSITE END OF THE SPECTRUM.
THAT'S WHEN WE HAVE INTENSE
ROTATION.
ROTATION.
ROTATION. WE HAVE ROTATION.
BUT IT'S FAIRLY WEAK AT THIS
POINT.
POINT.
POINT. AND THAT'S GOOD.
BUT THE CONCERN IS, WE'VE SEEN
THIS ALL AFTERNOON.
THAT'S A GREAT INDICATION OF
WHERE KEVIN IS RIGHT THERE.
