Emergency Alert System

Last night while we were watching a documentary, an emergency alert announcement came on the television for tornadoes in our county.   I had no idea the bad weather was moving into Georgia.   However, the perfect conditions for tornadoes are happening all over the South.   We have had warmer weather:  70s to 80.   With the colder fronts moving in from the North, the perfect conditions have been in place for tornadoes! 
To be honest, being able to identify potentially hazardous weather is new to us.   Yesterday, we went strolling in high winds to a park and played for about an hour and then strolled back.    To our horror, this was about the same time trucks and cars were being turned over just a little northwest of us!   Yikes!
Can't wait for Comcast to reinstate the Weather Channel so we actually have an idea of the day's forecast!
