Major props to the Woodward News for their non-stop coverage of the tornado that ripped through their city overnight. The above footage was posted to their Facebook page within an hour and picked up by most of the local media, stunned by its images and probably by the speed it was posted as well.

Also the Woodward News (@woodwardnews) did an outstanding job of posting updates on its Twitter feed. It was a perfect example of how to use social media to inform and update its readers.

I am that guy. The one who grabs the camera from the back of the Jeep and records the drive home after leaving the grocery store knowing full-well it’s about to dump wind, hail, lightning and rain all around.

Storm season. We’ve all been through it. Every year in Oklahoma. This account linked below describes the recent Joplin tornado. Amazing, heroic and sad.

“That’s what I witnessed. That’s what I saw. I mean, people only know about a third of the story. It’s not about just chasing, it’s about helping and saving people. What I witnessed here in Joplin is unimaginable.”
