Without a snowstorm, Kansas City is getting ‘Weather Fever’

The beat-up pickup brakes sharply as the twister comes into focus at the end of a dirt road. The driver briefly touches a creased picture of two dogs, takes a deep breath, and prepares to gun the engine and aim for the very eye of the storm.
“Have you got one more in you, Busby?” asks Gary Lezak.
“Let’s finish what we started, Lezak,” Bryan Busby snarls back.
The two top meteorologists in Kansas City have not yet decided to film the sequel to Twister, but the looniness of the weather coverage the past few days suggests that it’s not outside the realm of possibility. And if a storm doesn’t come soon (media reports are hopefully predicting snow for Saturday), there might not be anything that can cure the “Weather Fever,” which has beset this weather-crazy town.
