With today's radar I would just watch it closely and not go into it until needed.
Two years ago I was standing in my garage watching the storm and the radar, and a tornado was coming strait for me, I was ready to run across the street to my neighbors shelter, when it lifted.
That's some good stuff isn't it! Really gets the blood pumping. We've only been hit once and it just threw a big playhouse into our pool, flipped our big propane tank, blew in our garage door, and stripped about half our shingles. What sucks is we were leaving to go cook for the kids at Falls Creek the next day. We managed to tarp off the roof and riggernig the garage door and still made it on time. New garage door and roof were completed before we even made it back home. I love small towns, especially when we have just about any kind of service personnel you could need and you know them by name.
Well, how did you make out last night? The storm coming for us was the Southern late pop up storm. It started out strong but fizzled before it got here about 2am. I'm glad too because I fell asleep when I was supposed to be on high alert. We got a new roof because of the hail several years back and took advantage of the situation to put class 4 hail shingles on. Our insurance went down 33% after that, even with the claim. Check with your insurance and see if they offer a discount, some do and some don't. It might be worth switching to an insurance company that does give the discount if need be. Hope all is well.

Wouldn't mind some hail, I need a new roof.....
I'm at work so I can't watch it much, but it is the best TV ever.

No problem here in the city. We did go into the shelter at work for a short time,but no big deal.
