We carry a weather radio, TV, smart phones, and a laptop. Ran into tornado's in mid TN a few years back when the Grand Ole Opry flooded. The radio was in constant alarm all night, tornadoes and such all around, no way could we figure out where they were headed trying to follow on the map. We really would have needed to have studied the paper map ahead of time to know where we were and the surrounding counties. We tended to try and ignore what's happening in the world when we were on vacation, didn't know there were severe storms coming till they were on top of us.
The only thing that worked was the camp host in the golf cart telling us when to head to the bathrooms.
Winter before last just outside Pensacola we encountered similar. No cell service on our carrier, TV and the map worked well. A fella at the bathrooms had a good radar app on his phone and had service so all could see what was happening.
Both of these times the weather radio alerted us to bad weather but was too confusing to pinpoint anything.
