Does anyone have any ideas as to how Snape was spying for the OOTP?

I am assuming that "spying FOR the OotP" implies that he is bringing in news for the Order without being found out. But as far as canon goes, Snape does not require to be undercover. LV knows that he is acting as a spy for the Order and encourages the rumour. LV thinks that Snape is giving him news about the Order and allows for news from LV's side (albiet altered) to reach the Order through Snape. 

Although I am a DDM!Snape person, I really found it very disturbing 
that two people (apparently people whom DD respected a lot) - Bones and Vance - were killed following Snape's information passing to LV! But we do not hear of what real use Snape has been to the Order. How come he did not inform the Order about the bridge incident? Why didn't he inform about the giant movement in the north(?) that the muggles believed to be hurricane activity? And come to think of it - with mordern day technology which the WW is not SO aware of - why wasn't this giant movement captured in the satellite images? Does the WW interfere in that too? 

just wondering,
Brady.
