    And please do not wait until you hear sirens to hit the deck, they are often late.

    Radio or that twitter kabitzy linked, preferably both would be much more reliable

    Thanks for that.

    Also following this constantly-updated report on what's going down in the Atlanta area.

    I hope it's not what it sounds like.

    not very urban and a lot of trailers and single story homes.


    it's most likely exactly what it sounds like :(

    ok, that jailbait comment is fair.

    That's normal. The same kind of girls Ron Jeremy usually gets.

    When we were up by Helen I noticed a lot of homes had storm shelters in the yard. I hope they are doing ok. We'll probably have some news at work tomorrow if we end up on the scene. I'm not sure if this is something our disaster response team would turn out for or if they only do massive things like Haiti level big.

    I think we should wait and see if Munkus is comfortable with all us pitching in for him. I'd totally be willing to send stuff, but not everyone wants to put people out and I totally respect it if he doesn't want us doing anything.

    I think the problem is that they're just re-tweeting everyone and their sports guys have been relaying the most information.
