Airwaves -- I can say from "first hand" knowledge that Your Wrong!

We were at the Lake from 7/22 through 8/2 and I personally heard three or four different broadcasts from MP concerning "severe Thunderstorms" (on different days mind you).

Food for thought: Weather advisories, directions, etc use to be the realm of "Mighty Mo" ----- As it seems (to me at least) that "Mighty Mo" is on air less often, for obvious reasons -- it would appear that MP has picked up the slack in announcing Severe Weather warnings
