Quick Morning Update

* The latest computer model guidance has come in, and suggests we need to move our timing up. So, we are going to amend the forecast to indicate the best chance of severe weather will run from roughly 6pm Saturday night until 6am Sunday morning...Thunderstorms could start as early as Saturday afternoon.

* This is our first big severe weather episode of the "Spring" tornado season. If you own a weather radio, now is the time to make sure the batteries are fresh and the radio is functioning correctly. If you do NOT own a weather radio, now is the time to make that investment. Try to find one with S.A.M.E. technology; that allows you to program the radio to sound only when your home county is put under a warning.

* More later this afternoon...

Josh, I've notices that most retail stores will advertise they have the weather radio AFTER a severe storm hits the area, not before.

Remember folks, it does happen here.
