TWC Local On The 8s + Tornado Warning with EAS- Oct. 14, 2016- 6:37AM PDT

That's right, another Tornado Warning was issued, this time for another strong cell in the northwestern portion of Pacific County, just north of my location. The IntelliSTAR 2 Jr-generated warning crawl cues during the LF's text-based product, and the black EAS screen begins just seconds after the LF ends. Near the end of the video, during "Weather Center Live", Alexandra Steele talks about the said warning.

Just a cloudy evening in Stockbridge. GA and a tornado watch is on the loose. Me and my younger brother decided to go upstairs with our sister and play roblox. It was raining and winds were blowing. I decided to go down and make pizza telling my friends that there was a tornado watch and they told me to hide cause they were worried, as my mom was about to leave the house. Ovens were opening as the smell of pizza flew around the house. Doors were unlocking, Keys were chiming, But when the door opened there it was.. - Insert eas sound coming from iPhone - The tornado had found a way into our county. I had panicked and we all ran into the closet. I was shaking the whole time, although the tornado only lasted for 25 minutes I was super worried and we heard a loud noise coming from outside. THATS when my heart was beating faster than sonic could run. I was thinking I was gonna die and we don't have any to go emergency bags! But it was just a tree branch falling. After the tornado ended there was a bright vibrant colored rainbow outside. After that happened I was obsessed with weather forecast cause that was my first tornado experience! In January 2023

[@shadowboiiiiSKYT]

YA

[@miodragjr]

still gives me the chills...

[@Jordan-nd1cw]

That was most likely the quickest alert tone I've ever heard. I've heard alert tones for more than five seconds, actually.

[@Galactipod]

The tones include information that decoder equipment uses; think of it as dial up. The more included counties, the longer the tone.

[@anthonythompson6375]

Jordan I believe the old alert tones lasted 8 Seconds

[@akularia]

8 seconds is the norm for alert attention tones

where i live, there’s tornados around us but not where we live. also i’ve never got an eas alarm that was serious, and only a few practices. like the one on october 3rd or 4th

[@epzik8]

Jim Cantore's voice is like a robot with the monotony of his narration and, in the case of this clip, going between the local forecast and the tornado warning. And as for the new National Weather Service automated voice, it reminds me a bit of the 1997-2002 "Perfect Paul" for some reason. And at 1:52, the voice should have said "or", not "Oregon". It appears the voice is programmed to pronounce the full name of a state when it picks up a set of two capitalized letters, such as "OR" for Oregon, even if those letters are actually intended to form an identical two-letter word or abbreviation. Same with "ME" and "Maine", "HI" and "Hawaii", et cetera. It took me a few seconds to realize this, since this particular IS2JR system is set to a location in Oregon and the warning was issued by an Oregon NWS branch. But the tornado warning in this clip, as I'm sure the other viewers can see/hear, actually took place in Washington state. Therefore, what sounds like "Bay Center, Oregon" is actually Bay Center, Washington. But since that location is close to the Oregon border, people like me who don't live in the Pacific Northwest and aren't paying enough attention to the video would think there's a town in Oregon called Bay Center, which is actually in Washington.

Sooo, can we talk about the fact that they had an insurance commercial at the end that talked about stormdamage WHILE A TORNADO WARNING IS IN EFFECT?? Talk about targeted marketing.

there was an ad like that back a few minutes before the news broadcasted about the first plane hitting, don't remember the ad

People: What’s the Weather? EAS: A Tornado Warning. People: NOT AGAIN!

[@xenai.]

I remember watching Local on the 8's many years ago. There was a tornado warning in a city nearby us, and as we didn't have the warning ourself, it was still close and scared me alot. (We had a tornado warning a year before that, and that made me scared of storms) Whenever I see Local 8's, it reminds me of that. Also I love storms now, just for a while after that moment I wasnt.

There was a similar EAS like this on the same month and same year, but it also had Clatsop County in Oregon, and Wakhiakum County in Washington. Fun Fact: Astoria is in Clatsop County, but however, it wasn't mentioned on the EAS card.
