Believe me, I had no problem with that use of authority. And yes, we did see the funnel cloud shortly after, but we never received a drop of rain.

Matt - in your case, I see no difference between that and the fields that have lightning meters. I agree with your thought of having no problem with that calling - I'm a coward with that stuff.
