I agree, Ed. I hate I couldn't make it, but I'll say one thing -- those folks sure let us know how much they appreciate us, and I mean every single time we show up!

I hate that I could not make it. I was in the last day of a CISM (Critical Incident Stress Management) course that had to take precedence. Thanks to the NWS for putting this on! I volunteer for a lot of different groups and the NWS is consistently the best about supporting and thanking operators for our service. Every time I show up every employee makes me feel welcome, and they all thank me when I leave... not, I believe, because it is a policy, but because they truly appreciate and benefit from what we do. Being made to feel valuable and valued is in many ways better than being paid!

from Mark Wells:
Teresa & I spent overnight at the NWS. One bow echo coming out of the Meridian area was about the strongest I've seen. It quickly fell apart after crossing the state line. Had numerous damage reports out of Lamar County from non-thunderstorm winds. Over all though, we dodged a BIG bullet.
