An appropriate voice of authority

I remember frequent "American Top 40" substitute host Charlie Van Dyke's severe weather voice-over for KMOX years ago. "When severe weather strikes, we'll break in at once," he said with otherworldly gravity.  In other words, station personnel would break into regular programming to update you on the latest conditions.  With a tornado warning in effect as I write, the urgency in Van Dyke's proclamation sounds more appropriate than ever.
