Here is a new Google Map-based display of storm reports that you might find intriguing and maybe even useful.  The nationwide map can be found at https://www.wrh.noaa.gov/sgx/kml/lsr.php? You can choose to look at the area around any National Weather Service office using the menu at top right.  I’ve attached an example from this morning based on yesterday’s active weather pattern.  More is likely to be on the way today. (Note that this is an experimental product, so can disappear at any time.)severe events map 4-29-2014
