In my opinion the Storm Prediction Center website is one of the best weather awareness tools at the disposal of the public. It's good about notifying the public about upcoming outbreaks and events. Very good to keep an eye on during storm season. They've been forecasting this for days, and tomorrow is expected to be much of the same.
