You need to remember that severe thunderstorms move reaslly fast. So by
the time you get to the track you prolly wouldn't have to wait so long.
I usually check radar maps when they stuff like that. That way I can see
exactly where the storm is and the general direction of travel.
Especially since you were going to drive an hour. That makes a big
difference as far as weather goes.
