A tornado hit Greensboro, N.C., on April 15, knocking out power lines and damaging some buildings. Tim Buckley, the chief meteorologist at the station, had already been tracking the storms through the afternoon. This is not the first time a TV weather broadcast has been interrupted by the weather a station was covering. As a meteorologist covered the storm live in front of a weather map, the chief meteorologist preempted him with a roaring noise growing in the background. After the tornado had passed, Buckley and his team were able to get back up and broadcasting over the airwaves.
