Several tornadoes touched down across Central Florida on Christmas Day. During its coverage today, a Fox News Channel anchor asked a Volusia County official why the public wasn't alerted to the bad weather.
The answer, of course, is that the public was alerted -- but many people weren't listening or watching. WESH, WFTV, WKMG and CFN 13 were all providing continuing storm coverage. WFTV chief meteorologist Tom Terry even came in on Christmas Day to help his station's efforts, with Brian Shields and Julie Watkins. WESH relied on Ivan Cabrera and Amy Sweezey while Larry Mowry held down the fort at WKMG.
From what little I did see, WFTV did the best job with coverage -- switching between Terry, his Doppler 9 HD and DOT cameras across the region, while Greg Warmoth manned the anchor desk.
