Just got an e-mail...

Just wanted to let you know that there is a severe thunderstorm watch in effect today until 4pm. We will likely be having bad thunderstorms even if we don't have tornadoes. If the Longview sirens go off, remember that everyone should go to the 1st floor. Thanks!

Yay. I hate this sort of thing. I'd take the possibility of earthquakes over tornadoes any day.
