Sweet! I'm excited.
BTW, what was that? He seems legit! LOL
We need some moisture. Woke up with a nose bleed this morning.

Yes, Frankie MacDonald has Autism and he does his share of weather reports from his home in Nova Scotia regularly. I've watched several of his videos and it annoys me to no end to read the negative comments posted by some idiots on YouTube. He's passionate about weather and does his own reporting to help others. His heart is in the right place and I love watching his weather forecasts, he's accurate with his warnings and preparations and at the same time quite funny.
He always tells people to "have your rubber boots ready, order Chinese food, pizza, have your iPads charged and buy cases of Pepsi and Coke", which I find both accurate and humorous at the same time. I love his mixture of truth and innocence in his reporting, but above all I love his passion in wanting to inform people and do his part in helping others stay safe. I hope he continues doing this for many years.

Yep, we have storms but everything appears to be more east of us than in Allen. There is currently a Tornado Warning for Dallas County by Garland for a severe warned cell that is looking like it's producing a tornado, nothing is on the ground at this time but there is rotation in the storm.
Allen is NOT at this time in any danger of severe storms but if you are in the Dallas/Richardson/Garland area be in your safe area NOW!

NWS just issued a Severe Thunderstorm warning for Collin County but it does not affect Allen at this time.
Tornado Warning remains in effect for NE Dallas county.

DH had one heck of a ride home on DART today! Yikes! On, and you don't get pages when stuck in the tunnel.
