One last night, another this morning.

1. Not a warning - another real tornado touching down?

2. I heard it was on the ground close to Atlanta?

Does anyone know anything else about this?

7. Watch NBC Atlanta on the web -they have non-stop coverage

Many more warnings as well. Two people died -one seriously injured.

6. Suggestion for alternate image link

Use 080315_rpts.gif as the image instead of today.gif.
The map will start over fresh tomorrow.

8. Great. Thank you, could never figure out how to do that.

It makes sense since that is how it would look tomorrow, but am a bit slow sometimes.
