Meteorologist Calls Out Station’s Reporters During Storm Coverage

By Kevin Eck 

KOKI chief meteorologist James Aydelott was not pleased with the FOX affiliate’s reporters behavior during recent flooding in Tulsa.

“I want you people in the newsroom to get this message to the reporters right now,” said Aydelott a little before 10:00 p.m. during KOKI’s wall-to-wall storm coverage Saturday night. “Tell them to stop driving in flooded roads.”

Aydelott added, “We’re telling people not to do this and our reporters are still doing it. They need to be where they are, stay there, set up a live shot and be safe. Stop driving in flooded roads. It’s very dangerous.”
