While it might be the most important thing in your world at that particular moment, they have a larger responsibility to the viewers in their area who...you know...MIGHT LOSE A ****ING LIFE if they don't get proper warning to take appropriate action. Tornadoes kill people, and often develop/change in a matter of minutes. Crawls cannot be updated quickly enough to allow for CRITICAL information to get to the people for whom it might mean life or death.
Seriously. Go to Wal~Mart and buy a jumbo box of perspective.

And the way this country is, the station could get sued by "not properly informing of imminent danger".
Funny though, they will probably get sued by some football fan for interruption of personal time and win.
