Poll question: My NOAA weather radio is beeping
considering that It'll take a lot of effort to stand up and see what the alert is about- should I do it?

Keep in mind that I just took muscle relaxers...

2. Forget about it but...
remember why it beeps in the first place :)

Looks like some squalls are passing. Don't push them up this way.

6. Cool, thanks... I'm gonna bookmark that!
I hate all the extraneous alerts that thing does. Like I care about a storm heading south- in southern Lee county from up here in southern orange? Well... I care... for the people IN the path. But I don't have ANY reason to think it's going to do a big U-turn, come back through Sanford, and go up 15-501 just to see me. I'm really not that special- or THAT much of a walking disaster!

When you hear a sound like a freight train and the roof flies off your abode, you'll know what the alert is about.
