If any of my posts here fit the description of 'unnecessary hoorah' I apologise. My intent is to inform, not frighten, and if I could delete my posts I would.

It's sensible to be prepared for severe weather, but one's long experience and frustration with overblown warnings ought not make those with an interest or concern about storms feel foolish. I do prepare as a matter of course, I do feel vulnerable to danger since an event here, and now I do feel foolish for having entered the discussion in the first place.

Bye.
