This is meteorolgist Matt Laubhan, of WTVA in Tupelo, Miss, warning viewers to find cover—and then fleeing the studio just ahead of a large tornado that caused major damage in the city.


Laubhan and the newsroom sheltered in the basement, as the tornado knocked the station off the air. (It's since resumed broadcasting.)
