Nice little treat this morning...

[Jordan Hartley]

Had to take the 2nd vehicle(my chase vehicle) into the shop today. On my way back home the wife tuned into 101.3 KFDI here in Ict for some cow game that wins u money lol. She didnt get through but I never changed the station on my way to work. After I dropped her off at the house and headed for work, the morning show crew at KFDI did a great interview with Warren Faidley on the 5-4-07 event. They also got into Warren's background a little. It was a very special and rare treat for me since I grew up wanting to be just like Warren GJ on the interview Warren!!!

Way to go Warren

I kinda know what you mean Jordan, as Warren was amoung the first chasers, that I became aware of, along with Butch Phillips (Worked with Vince Miller from OKC), Howard Bluestein, Erik Rasmussen, Josh Wurman, Chuck Doswell, Tim Marshall, Gene Rhoden and many others

I'm glad that you got to enjoy the interview and maybe Warren will post it up on his site, if the oppertunity arrises

I remember Butch from some (UK) Channel 4 documentary in the 90s...there was some other guy who used to sit in a motel for the whole of the season, just in the hope that a storm would pass over.

 

[Willie Dines]

Yes, that was a documentary that C4 did, called "Stormchasers", it was a part of the "Ecnounters" series of documentaries, on various nature related topics

The guy in the motel was, George Kucha, (I think that's the right spelling) he would make his own home movies of severe storms, also, they showed some footage of the Andover, KS, F5, from 4/26/91 and the other beastly wedge that tore through Laverne, TX, it was shown as the end credits were rolling

Willie (Beginning to feel old, from remembering that Documentary that was shown about 15 years ago lol)
