    For yall that don't know, This beautiful man is James Spann, he stayed on the air during 4/27/2011 for 8 hours straight covering the tornado outbreak, had his home sustain major damage yesterday and still stayed on the air, maintained professionalism throughout the entire thing, and is probably the closest thing to the most respected man in the state of Alabama.

    For everyone that isn't from here, James Spann is probably the most well-known and beloved person on local television in the state of Alabama. He is absolutely amazing, as a forecaster and a person. He takes his job very seriously and has dedicated his entire career to helping keep the people of Alabama informed, prepared, and safe. He knows every single road in every single city, even in the towns I've never heard of, and he knows specific landmarks in those towns right off the top of his head without referencing maps! The amount of lives he has saved is probably astronomical at this point.
    I'm telling you, he is a hero.
    We appreciate you more than you could know, Spann, and I'm so glad your wife is okay!

    As someone who watched this live, he was worried about his wife but he was so dedicated to the lives of people in central alabama. He has saved my life a time or twenty and I know he has done the same for others. If there is such a thing as an angel on earth, james spann is one of them. We truly love and appreciate James here in alabama.

    I live on Lake Jordan in Elmore County, we have had two F3 hit in the space of two weeks in our county. When the warning for the one that hit 1-2-23 came on the TV I heard this: OK guys anyone around the weoka creek inlet or Jordan Marina, get to your safe place, Mr Cliff you need to close the Marina and get to your safe spot" I literally live 3 homes down from the marina!! Though we escaped damage weoka creek (an inlet of Lake Jordan) wasn't as lucky. That is our Mr Spann, he knows every little road, Cafe, gas station, and farm in Alabama. He has saved countless lives and is the most respected man in our state, when he speaks, we listen.

    He is the best meteorologist in Alabama. Most Alabamians in the viewing area trust Spann because he knows the state like the back of his hand and calls out neighborhoods and other landmarks in the path of these storms. He cares about the people of this state, and the fact that he continued to warn others throughout the day and evening all the while his house had just been hit and his wife probably frazzled shows he is a true professional. When it comes to severe weather, I trust him with my life. Many Alabamians do, and he takes his job very seriously. He has saved countless lives through the years. James Spann is the man!
