[quote=Anonymous] What you need to remember, OP, is that weather apps are never accurate. You need to read the Weather Service forecast, written by actual meteorologists, and understand that there is a large latitude in timing for the straight-line (derecho-like) storms coming our way. Currently, it's still believed to arrive in the immediate metro area at around 6pm, but it could be late, like 8pm. Meteorologists want people to be in buildings by 6pm, basically. But this could change this afternoon, so you need to carry your phone with weather alerts everywhere, and you mustn't stray too far from a building where you can take shelter if necessary. Capital Weather Gang has issued a preparation list that includes charging all your devices, not being on the road during the storm, and moving to a solidly-built lower level away from windows if you get a tornado warning.
