There's not a tornado warning with that right now. At least not on radar.

News just broke in to say there was a tornado warning but it was cancelled. Now it’s showing signs of rotating again. Right now we’ve got major winds.

They started using sirens to warn of high winds and heavy hail a few years ago.

Never heard of that. I guess calling them "tornado sirens" is no more.

I hope whomever stole my car has it parked outside in this hail. Insurance paid out today so they can get fricked.

There was a severe storm several years ago that came through early am with heavy winds and hail. There was a lot of damage with limbs through windows, etc and people lost their minds demanding to know why sirens were’ t used to warm them. How people live in DFW and don’t have a weather radio is beyond me.

Relying on sirens for weather alerts is bad idea.

They warned the storm North of San Antonio, but have let the Southern storm slide so far.

Safe to say that they need to be blowing the hail sirens for that one, too.
