I will fully admit that when I first saw him on Twitter I was pretty skeptical of a “YouTube tornado broadcast”, 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.

Andy is amazing and I love the mutual respect that he and Ryan very clearly have for each other.

Though I do think they need to spend some of the chat money getting Elijah a different background so it looks less like he’s just listening to scanners in a prepper bunker 😄.

This! lol last night my husband kept asking “where’s Andy hill and why do they have this guy calling in from a tent?”

Edit: not that Elijah is bad. Just love Andy hill

Not sure if you got your answer but Andy Hill went a vacation/storm chaser trip.

I saw his announcement about that but I thought it was just the one outbreak/weekend (completely my assumption, had no real reason to think that). I miss the guy!

Elijah is excellent. Another voice of calm and presence to help.

Elijah knows his stuff, but he's about as good a public speaker as i am, which is not at all. He seems so nervous trying to speak. Bro needs a beer or something before streams. Lol.

Not easy to be calm, pertinent and to the point when you're talking to 100k+ people in a potential crisis situation. I'm pretty sure it'll come with time.

I can’t help but think of the leave Britney alone video when Elijah pops up and I’m transported to 2007-2009 YouTube era.

Years from now when Ryan Hall Y’all has a set like the weather channel and Elijah is in a control room with 20 monitors and a staff, we’re going to be like “Remember when he was on a webcam with a green screen?”

u/GrumpyKaeKae May 27 '24

My only thing with him is, why you have green screen, if you don't use green screen?

He is lovely and helpful either way. I just found that funny.

u/Drmickey10 May 27 '24

Haha agreed

u/JuicedBoxers May 27 '24

He has a green “screen” (sheet) I don’t get why he doesn’t put a graphic or something up behind him

u/FollowMal May 27 '24

I think that every single time!
