776.0. "Bad thunderstorm at Kennedy Space Center" by NETCAD::MORRISON (Bob M. LKG2-A/R5 226-7570) Thu Apr 03 1997 18:10

  I heard on the news last week that there was a violent thunderstorm at
Kennedy Space Center with high winds, and that windblown debris smashed the
windows on several tour buses.
  My question is, why didn't they cancel the tours when the storm was 
predicted?

Bob,

    You're familiar enough with Florida weather to know that if they cancelled
the tours everytime thunder storms were predicted, they'd have to shut it
down completely from May to October;-);-)

    I think they just missed on the severity of the storm...
