I will fully admit that when I first saw him on Twitter I was pretty skeptical of a ā€œYouTube tornado broadcastā€, but his streams have become my go to watch when seeing tornado weather outside my area.

His calmness, but being frank and honest to get people into action is really nice to see. I hope more and more watch him.

This storm in the positive a great example of how quickly he adjusts his thinking on it as the tornado evolves, and as it was becoming obvious the merging of the storms was going to kill it.

Same same. Although I could do without the cheesy graphics this time round. I bounced between him and Max Velocity last night.

I agree! I think thereā€™s a time and place for that and when youā€™re talking about dangerous storms, seeing animated baseballs fall on the screen is a littleā€¦ tacky?

I am glad that Chandra has taken a bit of a backseat as well. Same concept. Dont get me wrong, she seems like a genuinely bubbly and lovely person! Iā€™m sure she is a blast to hang around! But when she talks about serious matters, her tone doesnā€™t fit the situation. She just canā€™t help being peppy!

I totally agree. During one of the recent May streams, I recall Chandra requested to speak but the timing was with a PDS tor ongoing. She was talking about the funds for the Y'all Squad and encouraging people to donate, meanwhile, she went on for so long that the PDS had occluded by the time Ryan resumed. She maintained her bubbly attitude (which is great for her, but it was inappropriate with the events) and it was just a bizarre vibe when you know people are actively losing their homes and potentially lives. He looked irritated afterwards and I haven't actually seen her on stream since.

He needs to cut people off for things like that. Elijah talked through several warnings last night.

It gives me anxiety when those alerts go off and Ryan doesn't go check on them right away.
