no problem!! I figure the members only area is for the stuff that really is something you don't want the general public knowing..whereas this story, everyone already knows! haha
i've heard that too about the aerials, it's an interesting theory considering the the weather surrounding and provoking the storm!
I know a few people that live in The Villages as well, i thought it was further north like near Ocala or gainesville though? hmmm...
the problem with issuing weather alerts is that if they're late at night, your percentage of people hearing them are way down because most people are sleeping. I saw that one couple on the boob tube that talked about how she went to bed, he stayed up to watch as the storm came in and went to grab her when it was time...they were smart!!
one of the things doug and I do here at the house is have a few sets of wind chimes in certain locations. we don't get tornadoes normally but can get microbursts or hurricane like winds that can still blow our trees down or cause damage.
altho, i have also heard that the worst tornadoes do normally hit very early in the morning due to the climate changes from night to day.
great about no damage in the tampa area.. thanks for letting me know!!
