1
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: Hammer and Nigel.

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 2: You believe these characters are weirdos.

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 3: My name is Didel Jason Hammer right over there with

4
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 3: a very special guest on the hotline.

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 2: Marcus Bailey, not only a friend of the show, longtime

6
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 2: pal of ours, one of the best at what he does,

7
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 2: meteorologists for WISH TV Channel eights and Marcus, I'm trying

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 2: to look at the glasses half full here. If my

9
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: options are a winter snow warning coming where we're going

10
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 2: to get three to four to five inches of snow,

11
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,239
Speaker 2: or maybe a severe thunderstorm, I will sign up for

12
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: the thunderstorm every single day.

13
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,879
Speaker 4: Listen. You don't have to shovel rain. I said that

14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,319
Speaker 4: right right. I've had my fair serve shovevel in this year,

15
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 4: so I'm ready to move on. Yeah, for sure.

16
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 2: You never hear of anybody having heart attacks our age

17
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: by shoveling the rain.

18
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: That's right, all right? So what are we looking at here?

19
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: We've been hearing all over night, all morning long that

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 2: severe weather tornado watches are in place, in place there

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 2: could be some tornadic activity.

22
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 1: What are we realistically looking at here?

23
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 4: I still think that's all along the table here. The

24
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 4: timeline may have moved back an hour or two because

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 4: I was thinking that we might start to see these

26
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 4: things kind of fire, you know, a little bit earlier

27
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 4: this afternoon, closer to two time.

28
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: This took some.

29
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 4: Time, But as I'm talking to you guys right now,

30
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 4: I just saw a tornado warning in Effingham, Illinois, which

31
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 4: is if you're not totally familiar with that, it's kind

32
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 4: of like south central Illinois right along I seventy, right

33
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 4: smack in the middle of the state. So that's just

34
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 4: the beginning stages, and so that's kind of the area

35
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 4: that I'm watching that are going to end up start

36
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 4: rolling over the next couple of hours into western India

37
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 4: and then eventually central Indiana. So you mentioned it that

38
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 4: there is a tornado watch out. Now the Indie metro

39
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 4: area is not included in that one. Its places like Bloomington, Nashville, Indiana, Columbus,

40
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 4: and then all the way down to the Ohio River,

41
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 4: and that's going to go until nine o'clock. I just

42
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 4: think the ingredients are a little bit better than the

43
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 4: southern third of the state. But I do think we're

44
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 4: going to get these storms to kind of become a

45
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 4: bit more scattered over the next three to four hours

46
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 4: around central Indiana, and any of those storms could be severe.

47
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 4: And again tornadoes are certainly going to be a concern,

48
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 4: but also damaging winds and hail as well, so that's

49
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 4: going to be kind of an issue. I think for

50
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 4: the remainder of the evening. I think this would all

51
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 4: be out of here, guys, probably shortly after midnight, so

52
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 4: then you can runow after that.

53
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 3: So I mean, so we're in it for the long haul.

54
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 3: I watched your live feed today on Facebook on social

55
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 3: media about ten thirty I think he went live, and boy,

56
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 3: I was I was stunned, even at at ten thirty

57
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 3: when you were forecasting, to see that these storms were

58
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,399
Speaker 3: going to be here throughout the remainder of the evening.

59
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 3: And when I say evening, I'm not talking like you know,

60
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 3: seven thirty eight o'clock when I like to go to bed.

61
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: An statement right there.

62
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 3: And I didn't even have to get up early, by

63
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 3: the way, you have to.

64
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: Get up at like one in the morning. Nigel's just old.

65
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 3: But the storms it's going to be here through midnight

66
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 3: or maybe earlier than that.

67
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 4: Here, So here's the thing. And I would say that

68
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 4: from that from when I did that live at ten

69
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 4: thirty into now, like I said at the beginning, we'll

70
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 4: probably a little delayed a couple of hours from the onset,

71
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 4: so we not only are delayed on the front end

72
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 4: right now, but then that kind of delayed the back

73
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 4: end right And so I thought at that point this morning,

74
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 4: I thought, maybe the severe weather threat's done around nine ish.

75
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 4: So now I've got to probably add about a two

76
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 4: hour window on that to say ten or eleven for

77
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 4: the severe weathers, just because we kind of delayed the

78
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 4: onset of this and so we have to delay the

79
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 4: end of it. But again, I do think once we

80
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 4: get past eleven o'clock, certainly midnight, I do think the

81
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 4: overnight hours are gonna be quiet, and those are the

82
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 4: ones you always worry about when when everybody, not just Nigel,

83
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 4: but everybody is sleeping and turn the overnight hours. So hopefully, yeah,

84
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 4: kind of in and out of here and by by

85
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 4: late night to night we'll kind of calm things down.

86
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 2: And Marcus, I'll ask you for an hour by hour

87
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 2: deal here in just a moment, But correct me if

88
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 2: I'm wrong. This system that's coming through it's going to

89
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 2: bring some colder temperatures too.

90
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, so good point. There are actually blizzard warnings right

91
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 4: now out for Iowa and portions I believe of Wisconsin.

92
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,799
Speaker 4: Good lord, yeah, I mean all connected with the system.

93
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 4: That's the cold side of this system. So yes, like

94
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 4: kind of going back to the beginning what Hammer said.

95
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 4: You know, obviously we don't want the damage, we don't

96
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 4: want the tornadoes and anything like that, but I'll take

97
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 4: this to there weather we can escape out of this,

98
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 4: you know, pretty much unscathed. So because they're gonna get like,

99
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 4: you know, not just a lot of snow, but some

100
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 4: some really nasty wins that is heading our way, not

101
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 4: the snow, but cold, and we feel it as early

102
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 4: as kind of tomorrow. We'll be kind of stuck in

103
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 4: the mid forties, but it's gonna be super windy, so

104
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 4: it's just gonna be very raw during the day and

105
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 4: then maybe up to forty Saturday and then mid thirties Sunday.

106
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 4: But I think that's where we kind of bottom out.

107
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 4: So that's kind of the core of this cool there.

108
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 4: We're not going into like the freezer like we had

109
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 4: earlier in the month, but it is gonna be a

110
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 4: significant shift. We just came off of a record high

111
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 4: at seventy one yesterday. We're in the mid sixties now,

112
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 4: unusually warm. Yeah, so it's gonna be a shock to

113
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 4: the system, no doubt, but hopefully short lived. Will bounce

114
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 4: back a little bit later next week.

115
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: It was a record yesterday, it was.

116
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 4: A record, so the old record with sixty six, and

117
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 4: we blew past that. We had seventy one. I believe

118
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 4: it's the earliest seventy degree day we've had since like

119
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 4: the late eighties. So yeah, I mean, you don't get

120
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 4: you don't get seventies in mid February very often.

121
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 2: And it looks like if I'm looking at this, you

122
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 2: know seven day forecasts, you know, accurately, here, we won't

123
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 2: see comfortable temperatures, you know, lows above freezing again until

124
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 2: maybe Wednesday ish of next week.

125
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: Marcus correct.

126
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, so like we bought them out Sunday Monday, with

127
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 4: the with the cold mid thirties. I think both of

128
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 4: those days you might have wind shows Monday morning off

129
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 4: the off to the butt stop into the team. But yeah,

130
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 4: I mean, we do bounce back by I think I

131
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 4: had by Tuesday, we're in the forties. By Wednesday, we're

132
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 4: into the fifties, fifties, would put us above average. Normal

133
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 4: high for this part of February is typically around forty two,

134
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 4: low forties, so it does put us above average. Like

135
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 4: it's not real comfortable like what we are enjoying today,

136
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 4: but it's tolerable. I can take fifties, you know. That's

137
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 4: that's jacket, that's footy weather. And so we're kind of

138
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 4: entering that stage of the year where we got a

139
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 4: lot of ups and downs. You're gonna have some peaks,

140
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 4: you're gonna have some validis, you're gonna get warm, you're

141
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 4: gonna get cold, and then in between you get what

142
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 4: we have to deal with tonight, and that the possibility

143
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 4: of severe storms.

144
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 3: And is it all hands on deck in terms of

145
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 3: all the meteorologists in WISH TV, Are you guys all

146
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 3: gathering around the I don't know what you call it,

147
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 3: the telestrator, you know whatever, marketing.

148
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 4: We're all gathering around the rain radar dome, and folks thought, yeah, yes,

149
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 4: all the evening crew is there. So Keith, Drew, Ryan

150
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 4: and Steven are all at the station. Tara and I

151
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 4: are kind of just on standby because somebody has to

152
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 4: get up ridiculously alien early and covered daybreak tomorrow. So

153
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 4: the four of those guys are are are great, and

154
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: they'll be handling all the severe weather coverage if and

155
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 4: when that starts rolling in and then hopefully we don't

156
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 4: have to talk too much about any damage tomorrow on daybreak.

157
