I have The Weather Underground send me e-mail and text-message alerts when severe weather watches and warnings are in effect in southeastern Wisconsin. This is great and everything, but the weather service issues endless slightly-updated bulletins, and I get each and every one of them, so when storms are in the region, like yesterday afternoon, I get something beeping every ten minutes. I felt like running down the halls shouting, chicken-little-like, “We are all going to be killed by the possible severe thunderstorms! Which may form due to conditions favorable for the formation of severe weather!”
