First tornado warning of the year...

Stay safe everyone. I'm in NW AR and it's raining heavily with lots of lightening.

Looks like one of the twisty storms will be here in about 20 min.

Sirens aren't going off yet.

weather radios that go off when things get bad in your area. We have had one for years, and are glad of it.

Stay safe. Tornadoes are nasty things.

We are having freezing rain here. I despise freezing rain, but tornadoes are so much worse!
