Treo 755p to the Rescue!

[From Dale Crawford Little Elm, Texas, USA] Like anyone living in the Dallas area, I've become accustomed to the fact that being in "Tornado Alley" is just part of daily life. Tornados don't come as often as most people imagine that they do, but when they come, you have to know the drill and be prepared to act. In the middle of a heavy thunderstorm last week the sirens started wailing just after hail started falling (large hail often comes right before a tornado). My wife, kids, and I all headed to the "safe spot" in the center of our home (houses in Texas do not have basements). That small space, unfortunately, has no internet access and no television or radio. So I took out my Treo 755p and got online to check the local weather radar. We watched the radar as the thunderstorm and tornado moved through the area. Our neighborhood was spared—this time the area was blessed with only strong wind and hail damage. But thanks to my Treo 755p, my family and I were able to stay informed while remaining in safety, even when the power went out.
