Things are getting dangerous here in Atlanta, we have been under 4 tornado warnings in just 2 hours! I heard at least 6 EAS bulletins come up on the tv. :o Another one is coming out of Alabama with a tornado warning heading right for us again!

Sorry, I refuse to use poison in my home. A LITTLE Mercury is more than the amount that should be, which is NONE.
Using that logic, I guess schools and offices are dangerous places to be, since they use fluorescent lights everywhere. :whistling:
No, because they're mounted on the ceiling, and they virtually never break in a school setting. Not to mention they have the resources for cleanup.

Bottom line, i wouldn't replace the lightbulbs I'm using now, that give me no problems, for a totally inferior product.

To SnowManiac:  TWC is just covering your area non-stop right now.  I hope you're able to dodge these serious supercells over the next several hours.  TWC even gave an unofficial report of golf-ball size hail up to a depth of one foot from the very storm in eastern Alabama that is approaching your area.  I've never heard of a hail report like that before! :blink:

I'm watching that storm as well, the other 3 storms passed to my north and south, luckily none has gone through the heart of Downtown where I live. TWC is sounding off their warning ticker every 2 minutes with either a Severe Thunderstorm Warning and Tornado Warning. The BTI in Peachtree City is 7.6 and there's one at 7.8 to our east.

I'm watching your area very carefully right now, too.  Everyone south of I-20 within Atlanta will get some hail and wind, and the extreme southern suburbs could see the tornado if it's still on the ground.

We had tremendous lightning and thunder with the Severe Thunderstorm Warning an hour ago. Our abc local station WSB-TV showed a lightning bolt hitting the Bank of America HQ building downtown. The screen went completely white for 2 seconds!  :thrilled: These have been impressive springtime supercell storms.

Glad to hear you're still okay!   You should be clear of everything in another hour.  The Southeast is particularly dangerous during the late winter to early spring months with severe weather.  Thank goodness that tornado warning was canceled before moving over your area, but you certainly caught a great lightning show. :happy:

This is a beautiful tribute to a friend. Also, check out some of the other posts from that blog that are meant to be funny. This is one of the few truly serious posts.

I'm pumped for severe weather season, too! As long as it's not my house getting directly hit. :P

I hate being out in rain, but I love watching it. I'm kind of paranoid when it comes to storms, too.  :noexpression: I'm a wimp.

EDIT: It's fun watching severe weather on radar. If and when it's in range of the TDWR (HD) radar stations, I'm there. It'll be fun for my first time watching a tornado in high def radar.

Also, on the Lone Grove tornado, I was watching it on a teacher's computer at school. I was thinking, " :faint: That has to be dropping a big funnel." The hook was amazingly clear for its distance from the radar. Normally by that distance the hook "fuzzes out" as I like to call it.
