This could be a great application for the IT. I too, live in central florida.
I got out my laptop last night when the weatherman was talking about the chance of tornados. I usually use weather.com to keep track of the storms.

While on the search for a more elegant solution, you can get an rss feed for Orlando from weather.com. Also wftv.com has a free phone alert which is good but bothersome. It went off four times last night when our actual threat wasn't until 7 am.
