You might want to open a window on your computer to something like this: http://www.intellicast.com/National/Radar/Summary.aspx

I can't believe there's advertising you have to watch before emergency weather information.

8. I use weatherunderground.com
and spc.noaa.gov, mostly. You don't have to watch ads before you get to see radar at WU, and there are no ads on NOAA's site. I love WU's radar, you can overlay the lightning detection data over the radar picture.

And damn these were fierce storms! I was coming back to Madison from the Milwaukee area, I had to stop in Oconomowoc. When I left there I drove right past a wall cloud that was suspected of having spit out a few tornadoes. I watched it a little (as did a spotter or other weatherhound that had pulled off) but didn't see a funnel, so I drove off. I should have at least gotten a shot of the wall cloud...I had Mr. Nikon armed and ready.

7. You've got it backwards
I brought the weather to you. ;)

I'm up north with Dangerously Amused and we've had storms, but nothing like MKE and Waukesha saw.

9. Are you here now, sweetie?
Looks like I'll miss Drinking Liberally this month (I'll be in Minneapolis for a couple days), but let us know when you're settled and we can have some folks over for drinkie-poos and snackage and such.

:hi:
