The Long Track returns to television coverage of the May 3, 1999 Oklahoma tornado outbreak, pairing archival footage of meteorologist Gary England with text-to-speech narration from “Tom,” the automated voice of the National Weather Service. As England tracks the storm through radar, cursor movements, street names, and live reports, Tom looks back on an event he once described but never saw.
