That's one of the reasons those of us who go out on the road like
timely RADAR updates and make it a practice to try and stay behind a
storm. There are a lot of trees even along the main roads so
visibility can often be limited right in your direction of interest.

You lean to drive with one eye on the sky, one on the road, and one
looking for cover...just in case.:-))


There was a great program in Hi Def TV about it last year. These were
pros who had a portable Nexrad type radar on a trailer they were pulling
about north TC, OK, and KS.
