What with #Tornadoes coming through my home state of #Illinois today, I thought this would be a good time to explain the difference between the phrases #TornadoWatch and #TornadoWarning ...

WATCH: Conditions are right to make a tornado. Stay alert, and don't sleep naked.
WARNING: A tornado has been sighted near you. Get your a$$ in the basement!
