Hey gang!

Our county is under tornado watch until 8:00 PM.

I got caught in the rain with no umbrella this morning. Gonna happen again, maybe.


UPDATE: Tornado video from Springfield

We're Middlesex, right? It's been upgraded to a Warning for Middlesex County although there's really no detail for specific cities on Weather.com that includes us.

Seriously? I'm going to try to go home then (because my wooden tinderbox house is so much safer than this low concrete building, I know...)

Yeah, the TV also went into the Emergency Broadcast Signal a few times in the last 30 minutes (although again, while they listed several cities, none of them were Boston suburbs).

We are, but I see a warning for only south-central Middlesex.

Yes, but Middlesex County is huge. It starts at Lechmere and goes all the way west to Ashby (which is just north of Fitchburg), Marlborough, and Hopkinton. The county is not an especially granular or useful unit for issuing weather warnings.
