As having moved from tornado ally last year, we brought our NOAA weather radio with us. We programmed it for just our local county and works great. It also has battery backup so when the power goes out, you still are up-to-date on weather warning. From what I understand, they detected tornado rotation down by Bushnell heading NE so that is why the warning for Sumpter County. I strongly recommend that everyone get a NOAA weather radio. I think they can be bought at Lowe's for about $35.00
