Some of you may have heard of
WeatherBrains<http://weatherbrains.com/weatherbrains/>.
It is a weekly online interview program for people interested in weather.
It is hosted by some folks in Birmingham, AL, including James Spann, the
top TV meteorologist in that part of the country.

Last night their guest was Mike Morgan, KFOR Chief Meteorologist, and the
topic was the May 31st tornado event.  Here's the

It's a long program, but the most interesting part of the interview begins
around the 24:40 mark.

There are a lot of issues discussed, and I wanted to be sure you had the
opportunity to see/hear it since our interactions with the media are such a
critical part of what we do. There are some very interesting insights into
how the media works in OKC, and how decisions were made on those critical
tornado days back in May.

I'd be interested in your thoughts or comments.
