Any chance we're going to be given a link to said video? An article about video *without the video* is kind of pointless, isn't it?

wow, i didn't know Tom and Noreen were in town. i wonder who is running the ship back in northeast PA on WNEP-TV (the same station where Paul Douglas spent his time at before coming to the twin cities, an ABC affiliate). this would be the first one that they probably saw in person (plenty on radar north and south of the wyoming valley) because the one that came thru Mountain Top, PA (missed their house but it damaged Crestwood HS as well as a major grocery store up there) wasn't seen until it was too late back in Dec of 2006. I remember that day back in 2006 and it was a rare scenario, because the models back then were saying major wind event, not tornado. the terrain actually spun that one up. here, looking at the models first look after the fact, it was saying maybe a wind event, not tornadic. but the extra spin was developed with a disturbance at ~15000 ft, not at the surface.

but none the less, welcome to the midwest tom and noreen.

Eh? The video is up there next to the article, from what I can see. It takes a moment to appear, though. What browser are you using?

Daily Horoscope for December 21

Taurus

If you're a typical Taurean you value both your emotional and physical security, and often tend to restrict your actions accordingly. But during the coming month you'll need to spread your wings more widely than usual, whether through mental or physical pursuits. It will do you good to be more adventurous for a change, and to embrace life in all its aspects.
