Two Rounds of Severe Weather Possible: Timing/ETA, Hazards, Threats, Risks.

Later today information will be more precise, timing more certain, passed quickly to you via Twitter. Be flexible, stay alert. Have a way to get warnings, and consult multiple reliable severe weather information sources (local TV meteorologists are great!). read more
