I think Fred Ostby was director of the NSSFC before 1980. He was director at the time of "Terrible Tuesday", the Wichita Falls, Texas tornado of April 10, 1979. I heard that he passed away a few years ago.
@@hookecho80 I have the documentary "Terrible Tuesday" on a VHS tape and it said he's the director but the documentary had to have been made AFTER that tornado event.
Fred Ostby was at TWC at the time of the Jarrell, Texas F5 tornado, which would occur less than a month after this.
I love that song at 19:54, "Season On Edge" by Trammell Starks.
ILoveStorms they’re one of my all-time favorite TWC local forecast songs!
This was the weather channel at its best before they started making things up

I was going by the timeline on the SPC website. Allen Pearson should of been the director in 1979.

The bad luck of having your IFB fall out on your very first appearance.
@@ILoveOldTWC Yes it was made in 1984
WLWT News 5 also makes an appearance for 3 seconds at 5:32-5:35
Dang. I was 10 when this happened in the area.
I turned 16 2 days before this. 🖤❤
