Seriously?

Watches do not indicate an imminent threat. There is absolutely no reason to post something like that here.

Thanks short!! Don't live in NYC but a good heads up regardless

they most certainly indicate favorable conditions for an imminent threat. Technically, a warning isn't put into effect until one is spotted.

Why shit on this, G?

Y'know what...you're right. Next time there's a weather watch where I live...or a levee about to break with widespread flooding (as happened in Portage a couple days ago), I'll be alllllll over it.

And everyone who doesn't live here (which is pretty much everyone) will get to hear about it, too. Because I know they're all interested.

Oh - and I know what a tornado watch is for. My first career was in weather. Which is why I think it's ridiculous to post something like this on a global message board.

For fuck sake!

I clicked on it and I live in England - so what?!

If you don't think you'll be interested in the thread, don't fucking click on it!

well, thank you for explaining why you shit on it.

what makes you the defacto judge on what threads to start G?

are you fucking kidding me, you just started an equally useless thread that could have been done via orgnote.

I'll be sure to tell whoever decides to start a thread about soil whether it's important or not because I'm in geotechnical engineering.

Come down off your high horse sometimes, fuck.

Btw, there are plenty members in the tristate area here.

Luv4u will be around in a minute to move this to the Tornado Gatherings forum, where no one will see it.

The point of my post was to warn those others, that might live in the areas that were on the list. It might not have effected everyone, but you never know.

dude, you have no reason to even explain. it was a nice thought.

Damn. Lots of hating going on here.

If I come across a thread titled "Tornado watch for Paris" or "Tsunami warning for Venice" and I couldn't care less about it, then I simply WON'T CLICK ON IT.

But Shorttrini, THANK YOU. I live/work in Nassau County and I had no clue that it was a consideration (the morning weather made no mention of anyhting of the sort).

...going to weather.com now...

We already had a tornado here in NYC two weeks ago!

2012 must be coming early.

I saw that on the news. With all of this weather craziness I've been thinking the same thing..... You stay safe over there!!

You are right Jersey.....most if not all of the threads here on the ORG are specific to a smaller group and not ALL ORG members. So with Genesia's logic, no one should post here at all on a GLOBAL message board unless the sun is going to explode or an asteroid is going to hit the Earth.

Ohhhh shittttt.

Thanks for the head's up shorttrini, I'm in NYC and didn't know the weather was supposed to be that crazy today. (I always remember the difference between "watch" and "warning" by remembering the "r" in warning means run for shelter. )

Really??? Living here in "Tornado Alley" I don't think of NYC as a place that would have a tornado. Is this common?

Which is all good, that's the whole point of GD. But it KILLS me when certain folks have to compulsively shit on threads they don't deem worthy of existence but enjoy the freedom to post whatever drivel comes to their lil minds.

At least a few trees were uprooted in my neighborhood. One fell on a house. I was at work and missed it all.

This was so good it MUST be fattening.

That was the same reason you gave for arguing that you knew better than everyone else that Ohio is not located in the Midwest.
