Hi All:

	Let me clarify one key point here in reporting to 911.  I live in an 
area where severe weather is not a frequent event.  In that situation, local 
authorities are less likely to consider it a threat, and there are no organized 
watch networks, except for a few Skywarn observers like myself.
	
	Under these conditions, I feel it is important to provide information 
as quickly as possible because there is seldom advance notice or watch boxes to 
enhance awareness.  When I call 911 (which I have for weather-related events 4 
times in 5 years), it is because there is an immediate threat that the lag time 
associated with waiting for a response from the NWS would enhance.
