I like Weather Bug too. I also get weather alerts on my cell phone through text messages from the Weather Channel. My daughter, granddaughter, and I were in Johnson City earlier when a good hard one came through there like the one we had here in Bristol last night. Last night we had no power for about 45 minutes and spent time sitting in the dark with a battery powered radio and the grandbaby in my lap.
Take care and be safe everyone.

Well, Just think… it’s not even Summer until June 21st and we have all ready had such bad storms. I live in Erwin and we have all ready had some serious hard pounding rains this morning. I live right across the road from the river and I keep me eyes on that when we have rains like this b/c the river rises so fast and I saw on my weather bug that we have a flood warning for today :( News Channel 11 needs a weather bug !!!!!
