That's too bad, especially with some of the rough weather around there right now.

Central Texas has a Tornado Watch going on.

Didn't think the NWS would get involved unless they actually owned the sirens.

I imagine it was becasue those in that area called them asking if there was a tornado warning. It was raining but even though it was 40'F, this is kansas...
