Not to minimize the danger of bad storms today, but keep in mind the weather service in February I think changed their policies, and now make tornado warnings deliberately more scary and shrill.

So really, it’s hard to know whether it’s really as bad as it sounds, or if the weather service is just shouting louder than they did before last month.

Repeating though, not trying to minimize anything.

I read this morning that they were not practicing that policy with this storm. They’re serious about this one.

Prayers up for all of our FRiends in these areas.

I go with Dr. Forbes of the Weather Channel....his "Torcon" index for Wichita is 9 -- which equates to a 90% chance of tornadoes within 50 miles.

I don't think these warnings are hype.
