God blessed my wife and I with the most precious gift at 11:50 PM on Thursday night. Brooks Bryant is home resting with momma!
We are finally home after an 80 hour hospital stay. We are so thankful!
Well this is SO COOL!!
This was Monday's eclipse as viewed from inside a cave in the Ozark National Forest!
Thanks to Joshua Kwekel for sending to us!

Exciting news!
Sarah and I are expecting a baby boy this August. We are so excited about this blessing and appreciate all prayers for a continued healthy pregnancy.
Before anyone feels sorry for Auburn, just remember they fired Gus Malzahn who never had a losing season, recruited in the top 15, and beat Alabama 3 times.
Well this is just CRAZY. The street sign from Wellington Colony Dr in west Little Rock was found in Sherwood just north of Club Rd.
This street sign travelled airborne for 13 MILES and it is beat up!
Thanks to John Rennard for sending this in.

Eric Musselman will at some point assemble a Final Four team at Arkansas. This program is in a great spot.
It’s a “down year” when they went 8-10 in conference play and still made it the Sweet 16.
It'll be overshadowed by the loss, but Arkansas did some really good things tonight. The hogs truly beat themselves and are so close to pulling it together (and LSU is a good to great team, Nabors is elite).
- KJ Jefferson is one of the best QB's we've ever had
- The defense is

Senators, I appreciate this effort, but what is really required for better tornado forecasting is for more radars available to the network.
Tornadoes are best detected with low level radar data. The father away you get from a radar site, the more difficult this becomes.
After 5 years working weekends at KATV… I’m moving to WEEKDAYS!
I’ll be in Monday to Friday for Midday, Good Afternoon Arkansas, and Channel 7 News at 5.
Not working weekends is weird!
If you’ve watched or followed this page over the last 5 years, I can’t thank you enough!!
Arkansas numbers to think about:
• They are ranked 23rd in the nation in athletic department revenue.
• Arkansas is a top 25 composite recruiter, which means they have the dudes to beat people.
The numbers say they can compete, so the on field result is really baffling.
We've got a lot of videos from Baptist and downtown, but this is an unbelievable video from Rachel
Turner on the 11th floor of the Plaza West building in Midtown.
The tornado would have been going through Breckenridge at this time. You can see power flashes from the base of the
My wife and I are so blessed. Our little man will be here in about 8 weeks or so.
Check out this cool gift we got from a former Channel 7 employee that goes to our church. So cool!
Here is the early life cycle of the Little Rock tornado from Jay Davis who was on the 10th floor of the Baptist Health Medical Center... Once this tornado got down it became very strong.
Notice the horizontal vortices... That's a marker of a very strong tornado.

Win or lose, the fact that Arkansas has the toughness and grit to be back in this game after being down 17-0 is incredible.
Arkansas is SO much better than the last 3 years.
Incredible video shot by Jason Stewart.
It is so easy to see the tornado damage path on the east side of Lake Hamilton. This is where the tornado came off of the lake.
Check out the convergent and widespread tree blowdown. There is hardly a tree left standing towards the
Unfortunately it was a case of a storm that would not go away. After 9:30 PM last night a supercell developed east of I-35 in northern Oklahoma.
This storm would go on to track through northern sections of Tulsa and would make it all the way to Benton county by 1 AM where it
Todd Yakoubian has taught me everything I know about TV and has been an incredible mentor and friend. I grew up watching Todd and only could’ve dreamed about a day where I got to do severe weather coverage WITH him.
I have him to thank for getting me to KATV 5 years ago. He’s

He’s been instrumental in teaching me everything I need to know and is a huge reason for where I’m at in my career. I’m extremely thankful for him mentoring me.
We will miss him!
It’s a “down” year for Arkansas basketball and they still won 20 games and will make their 3rd straight NCAA tourney appearance.
Program is in a great spot regardless of how this season finishes.
I know Arkansas could’ve played better, but the fumble theft by the officials early in the game changed it in favor of Auburn.
No one who watched this game can say that bad officiating didn’t have a huge impact.
Next week brings a preview of fall with a big cold front that will give us a break from the heat and high humidity for the first time since early June.
Highs will be in the 80s with lows in the 60s! Dewpoints will drop down into the lower 50s!!
With our severe threat winding down and the very little amount of rest I’ve had since Friday morning, it’s about time I go down for a long nap.
Thank you for you trust these past 5 days, especially last Friday. It’s a day I’ll never forget.
About a week ago the old KATV weather team got together. KATV has had 5 meteorologists since 2005. I’m so thankful to have gotten to be a part of this group!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
It’s been overshadowed by the tornado in Pulaski county, but one of the hardest hit places in the state was in Wynne in Cross county.
Homes were heavily damaged, the high school was destroyed, and 4 people were killed in town.

Three of my close friends were in Sudan meeting with church leaders before the fighting broke out 2 weeks ago. They will finally return to American soil today. It was only the Lord that paved a way for their return. Many prayers have been answered.
Despite being quiet recently, the Little Rock metro area is one of the most tornado prone metro areas in the country. Tornadoes in Pulaski county are extremely common, but the big tornadoes are about a once per decade deal.
5 F3/EF3+ tornadoes have impacted the Little Rock city
A significant severe weather event is possible late Tuesday afternoon and night… Supercells with tornadoes and hail will be possible before a line of storms moves across the state late in the night…
