Description: Here's an on-screen crawl message regarding bad weather on WBBM Channel 2, during a repeat of the M*A*S*H episode "Yessir, That's Our Baby" (originally aired on December 31st 1979):

...From the Channel 2 Newsroom... A severe thunderstorm warning is in effect until 9 PM for Kane... DuPage... Cook... and Kendall counties... and a marine warning has been issued for the southern third of Lake Michigan... Boaters still in port are urged not to depart until heavy thunderstorms pass... Stay tuned to Channel 2 for further information... "

(Hey, at least they got "thunderstorm" right - unlike, say, WMAQ Channel 5's "thunderstrom" warning of six years later. ;-) )

After this scene ends, the network M*A*S*H bumper is shown. ("Don't goway...")

This aired on local Chicago TV on Monday, June 2nd 1980 during the 8pm to 8:30pm timeframe.
