Skywarn are mostly crazy ham radio operators who climb on their roofs when sane people are going down into their basements. Before modern doppler radars their sightings were the primary source for tornado warnings.

Good to see our federal bozos are on the case...
For any of you who might have thought that the US population today is any different from the German population of the early 40s: Here we have citizens turning in a fellow citizen to the feebs much as germans would turn in jew the the gestapo. HE WAS TAKING PICTURES!!!
Ah, the KGB is alive and well. They just found a new home in the USA.
Anyone feel safer yet?

I agree with you. Unfortunately many on this site and elsewhere would be screaming to the treetops and beyond if this refinery was the target of an terrorist attack and the failure to interview this gentleman would have stopped it from occurring.
It’s a Catch-22 world we live in today.
Meanwhile BO is releasing confirmed enemy combatants and terrorists from jail.
For those familiar with usenet, there’s a group “alt.binaries.pictures.weather” that’s still somewhat active.
FBI, TSA, DEA, ATF, etc... = GESTAPO.
There here
I am an advanced trained weather spotter for our local Amateur Radio Skywarn program and I will share this article with others in the group.
How do you access these usnet groups?
yet you can go to google earth and get an aerial view of all the refinery’s in Houston.
I'm a photographer, As long as you are on public property and the thing or person you are photographing is visible, you can take all the photos you like. The only exception is using a long lens to invade privacy. Like seeing into someones home.
And the lesson transmitted was to submit. Comply. What would have happened has the photographer told the agent to leave and not come back without a warrant and asserted his rights not to answer questions without an attorney present?

Several years ago I stopped on a snow covered bridge on Hwy 412 near Ft Supply Oklahoma to take a photo of the ice covered river.
I barely got out of my truck when a law enforcement officer pulled up and began to grill me on ...”Why have you stopped on this bridge! Didn’t you see that prison there! Move on!”
I simply said, “just as soon as I get my picture”. I then snapped a few photos of the frozen river, then got in and left.
There just to the west of the river was a new prison next to the highway, and on the hills to the north lots of wind farms.
