I am blessed with a job that allows me to leave work whenever the
weather gets 'interesting', so last week out the door I went.  It was
a good experience for myself, reviewing where I stuck my pen and maps
and the various frequencies needed to be programmed.

One thing that would benifit me as a chaser (aside from straightening
roads west of Madison) would be updates of cell locations, strength,
size, and relative movement.  In this manner I can position myself
well ahead of time in a favorable location, instead of having to
drive through the cells to find out what might be on the otherside.

Location can be given by county name and side, IE West Dane Co.,
direction by simple gross compass heading and strength by keyword
such as strong, severe and developing.  Timely updates (around
reports of course) would also be key.  Say each 15 minutes on the 15
minute mark.

Thanks !
