The NOAA Facebook page has something on the weather radios being down. They couldn't have picked a worse day for those things not to work!

I hear here a difference between coastal folks and inland folks. We in the middle section, inland areas of the U.S. are used to tornado watches and don't get worried until we see a tornado WARNING.

Many, many, many watches never become warnings...but some do.

Good point of information. Maybe switch to Jacksonville frequency? We're a 9 iron away from Marion County
