Have any of you seen the PBS chaser documentary featuring Reed, Joel, etc? It aired last evening on PBS here in the DFW area. Pretty well done documentary with some awesome footage in it. They interviewed a few of OUs professor's for it, and had commentary from other areas as well. Seemed to mostly focus on Reed and Joel. I can't remember what the title was.

It may be Tornado Diary shot in 1999. I've seen this recently on PBS. I thought Tornado Diary was very well done without some of the flashiness you get from more recent documentaries.

Based on your description, I'd venture to say that it was probably "Tornado Glory," a film that focuses more on the storm chase than the actual tornadoes.

It has some AMAZING footage (including Manchester SD) and airs frequently on TV4OU; I've seen it probably close to five times.
