And the weather is certainly taking precedence.”talkSPORT’s chief live football anchor Adrian Durham, who is in Dallas, Texas, and away from the dangerous weather, added on the coverage: “There are storms forecast throughout Kansas City and Missouri, which is where England are, as you say.“The latest update was that there’s power outages and they’re growing. There’s even more of those than they’d expected as the storms move across the region. So it’s just one to keep an eye on. “But very active storms at the moment and hopefully everything will be all right as far as the England camp are concerned.”Coverage interruptedAs Sawyer indicated, the weather may have had an impact on the world feed for Scotland’s World Cup opener against Haiti.The BBC were quick to apologise to viewers for the visual issuesBBCAt a similar time to when the weather alert was issued, coverage on the BBC briefly dropped out and cut to a test card.When the feed returned, BBC commentator Liam McLeod apologised for the visual problems and explained it was down to an issue with the world feed.A text box in the upper right corner was also displayed which read: “We apologise for the loss of pictures.”For those watching Fox’s coverage in Kansas City, they too had a brief outage.But when the feed returned, the Scotland v Haiti match was relegated to a corner box.In its place was the local news providing immediate updates on the weather for Kansas City residents.View Tweet: https://t.co/qc4kK4gCnREngland, Argentina, Algeria and the Netherlands all have their base camps either in Kansas City or in close proximity.The timing of the weather warning is especially not ideal for the Dutch, as they get their World Cup proceedings under way on Sunday against Japan at 9pm BST.World Cup WhatsAppDon't miss an update from talkSPORT in our dedicated World Cup WhatsApp channel.Search for ‘talkSPORT World Cup’ in your ‘Updates’ tab on WhatsApp and we’ll drop the proper, unfiltered football chat straight to your lock screen—no fluff, just pure talkSPORT energy.It’s where you’ll find out all the new rules to watch out for, England and Scotland reaction and big match player ratings.
