Randy, thanks for the heads-up.  I had forgotten about that.  I now remember seeing it a while back.

However, when I had corresponded with Curt on the list back in October (14th), Curt was seeing Weather Alerts at that time, but I was not.  I'm still not seeing any, and never have.

I do understand that if it is not  a true "IMMEDIATE" warning, then don't expect to see any Weather Alerts.  Too bad.
