CNN has sent a television crew to the Storm Prediction Center in Norman.
Fox News wants to do regular phone interviews with officials at the Wichita branch of the National Weather Service.
The SPC’s warning coordination meteorologist is in Washington, D.C., today to brief congressional staff.
Yes, the outbreak predicted for today has caught the nation’s attention. And for good reason: forecasters are talking about large, long-track tornadoes this afternoon and tonight over a large section of the Great Plains. They’ll likely be traveling at more than 50 miles an hour, too, so people will have less time to react in threatened areas.
We’ve attached the SPC outlook for today with a story on Kansas.com. Stay tuned for updates.

Am I’m losing my memory or have fuzzy recollection?
I’m pretty sure it was greenish gray.
