Ditto. My husband loves his weather apps on his iphone.
At least you would be aware if it were to hit in the middle of the night.

It's really funny how it's raining in some parts of The Villages, like the southern region......but not in the other parts????

But then again, it's a huge land mass......

We do have storms that go right above our town or on the edge of it;
or south of it.......and spare us downed trees and power lines........
We seem to be in a very protected area......whereas right over the border in New York State, they are always getting hit pretty badly by the winds.....leaving longterm power outages.
Ditto for south of us in Massachusetts........
