re: Tenth Anniversary of the 2011 Super Tornado Outbreak

I’m reminded now of something that has bothered Spann about the Tuscaloosa tornado. As the tornado was moving through the heart of Tuscaloosa, the ABC 33/40 radar system had a pixel displacement issue. It was basically showing the debris ball further south on the map than the tornado actually was. This led to Spann calling out some places that were actually south of the tornado, and not calling out some places in the path. Spann takes that situation really hard and is very critical of himself for it, even though it was the fault of the vendor who they got their radar system from.
