CNN - Storm sinks duck boat in Missouri, killing 13 people, including children
Today Show (NBC) witness interview from this morning
Here is the National Weather Service severe thunderstorm alert for Branson/Table Rock Lake, MO from Thursday evening. 60 mph wind gusts seemed to be obvious for warrant not going into the lake. But if you look at the timeline, I wonder if the alert came in time or if they missed it. The NWS alert is time stamped at 6:32pm and it looks like the capsize happen after around 7:00pm.
This is pretty heartbreaking. They are apparently still in recovery efforts.
I'm not from Missouri, but I'm from a touristy town that has a well known duck boat tour company. I was always amazed at how popular these rides were.
