What are some differences between a hurricane watch and a hurricane warning?
A tornado watch is when general conditions may lead to a tornado forming. A tornado warning is when a tornado has been spotted in the area or indicated by radar.More Information:In the United States, both the tornado watch and the warning are issued by the Storm Prediction Center in Norman Oklahoma for every location in the country. They are typically issued for 6-10 hour periods and also usually in advance of the anticipated weather. It is left to local National Weather Service offices to detect severe thunderstorms and tornadoes and issue the appropriate warnings. It should be noted that a tornado warning does not necessarily mean that a tornado has been spotted - in fact, the majority of tornado warnings do not pan out as such. Most of these warnings are issued based on a radar signature, i.e. the meteorologist sees something on the Doppler radar that suggests strong rotation and a potential tornado, however more often than not a tornado will not form. However, a tornado warning should still be treated as if a tornado is imminent simply due to the severity of the situation. The last thing meteorologists want to do is not issue a warning when a tornado is in fact on the ground. If there is good evidence that a tornado could be on the ground, the warning is issued and emergency management personnel proceed as such, as the public should follow.Some tornado safety links can be found in the related links.A tornado warning means that a tornado has been spotted by Trained NWS or other Emergency Services Personel , or that Doppler radar indicates a thunderstorm circulation which can spawn a tornado. When a tornado warning is issued for your town or county, take immediate safety precautions. local NWS offices issue tornado warnings.
Why was charlotte allowed to sleep late on the morning after the hurricane?
Charlotte was allowed to sleep late after the hurricane because the storm caused a power outage in the area, leading to a disruption in the usual routine or schedule. This likely resulted in a more flexible approach to allowing residents to catch up on rest given the circumstances.
What would it be like to be inside a tornado?
The eye of a hurricane is the axis about which the air rotates. It is a place of low wind and apparently, very peaceful, compared the the rest of the hurricane. The peace is short lived however. As the eye of the hurricane moves, that spot will once again be engulfed in the winds that cause destruction and injury.
What are warning signs of very very bad weather?
"Red sky at morning, sailors take warning...." Additionally, watch out for dark skies with increasing cloudiness, increasing winds, and cumulonimbus clouds. Also, keep your eye on the barometer. If its indication falls rapidly - watch out. And if you don't have a barometer but Grampa complains about his bursitis realize that pain could be caused by the same kind of pressure drop a barometer would have told you about.

Thunderstorms: Avoid going outside if possible. Do not enter any bodies of water. Do not take shelter under a tree. Avoid taking baths and showers or using appliances that are plugged in. Stay away from windows of strong winds or hail are possible. Hurricanes: Evacuate ahead of the storm if you are told to do so. Board up windows in advance if possible. If you are riding out the storm stock up on water, batteries, and food that does not need to be cooked or refrigerated. Remain inside at all times and stay away from windows. Move to an upper floor if any flooding occurs. Tornadoes: Take cover in an underground shelter if possible. If it is not possible, seek shelter in an interior room or closet on the lowest floor.

If you are outside during a hurricane, get in a low place, like a ditch and make yourself as tiny as you can. If you are told to evacuate,get in your car, get to a Red Cross shelter or a different state that the storm isn't going to hit. If you can't evacuate, get a disaster kit ready, and unplug anything electric in your house. If you do evacuate, make sure to take your pet with you, even if you have made a special "hiding spot" for your pet(s) in your home. That can be dangerous!

Did meteorologists help save people's lives when hurricane Andrew hit Florida?
Yes, they were warned too well, you might say. Almost the entire East Coast was under a hurricane warning at some point because Floyd was very difficult to predict exactly were it would recurve to the north. If it recurved any later, it would have struck different parts of the East Coast. As it happened, it just hit eastern NC and was weaker than expected. So people knew well out in advance that this storm was coming, but the forecast was not particularly good (nor easy, of course) for its exact track and intensity.

Who told you about the surprise party? He loaned me the money and told me not to worry about paying it back. We were told by the police officer evacuate the building immediately. Do you know why he told her to come back later? After we broke up, he told me never to call him again. He believes the story she told. The students were never told that the test would be today. The coach told the players to work harder.
