Damn, I hunt in Pachuta, right north of Shabuta. Hope all my locals are alright.

What’s the liability in warning people? Seems like there would be more liability in NOT issuing it when Joe Blow (me) can see it

They have guidelines to help prevent false alarms. The parameters that must be met are there for that reason.

On a day like today, the PDS Tornado Watch is a heads up because everything will spin. That doesn't mean every bit of rotation is warning worthy. When it meets their parameters they warn.

No. I just see this entire overreaction and “shut it all down” mentality as totally unnecessary, disproportionate to the actual risk, and more likely to discourage people from taking weather warnings seriously.

That rotation near Shubuta is a big concern. It is starting to take on a right turn.

Moreso that closing everything across such a large area is nonsensical and tiresome. Nearly everyone in the impacted areas got nothing today but some rain. All it does it encourage more eye-rolling next time all of EBR for example closes down for a non-event, again.

When did we all decide to close everything every time a strong front comes through? It’s only been the last few years that everyone started doing this.


You're right. Everyone downvoting you is a weather-Karen

It wasn’t a non event.

You do realize that tornadoes, even the big ones, are very small in comparison to an entire county/parish, right? Even in the high-end tornado outbreaks, "nearly everyone" will not have damage. So should we just not talk about it at all because most people will avoid serious damage or injury?

That would be exactly my point. How often are we going to do this?

It is getting more frequent in recent years to just close everything on the chance of severe weather. I don’t understand the trend and do not think it’s effective.
