All the women on WSAZ are fine looking! They all do a fine job at what they do also! Murina, that takes alot of guts to do, chasing tornadoes. Maybe someday I'll give it a try. Oh, by the way, the guy's do a fine job also reporting the news!

Way to go! I don't know if I could have done something like that! It's awesome just to see them on T.V., all that power swirling around and around. It's just amazing to watch how they appeared yesterday in Oklahoma, one right after another! I've seen the destruction on the news that they have caused and pray that everyone is okay. Marina, good job!

I watched that twister live on the news. It touchdowned three times. It was so cool, I mean I got to see it live on TV. That twister smashed through some buildings and tore them right up. I hope one day I get to see something like that with my own eyes. Why cant we get those here? Whenever we do, they are so small and weak.

Way to go Marina!!! Storm chasing is one of those faraway fantasies of mine. Along with piloting a 747. I'm in my mid-sixies, so it's not going to "happen " for me, but I am so happy for you. (Can I be a little envious?) Take care. A fan of Channel 3 since it began. PS, I heard there are other local news stations! Can't prove it by this ole girl.
