A tornado warning for the Little Rock metro had been issued by the national weather service, but Rock could tell that the weatherman on television wasn't convinced that anyone was in any danger. It was bright and sunny out the day before, and the forecasts Rock had seen didn't say anything about bad weather on the way.
"I'm not sure what this is about, but apparently there is some severe weather activity at high altitudes somewhere in Pulaski County," the weatherman said. "A tornado warning has been issued, but I really don't think this is anything we really need to worry about."
Once up and in his den, it seemed odd to Rock that no one on Channel 4's early news program mentioned the tornado warning, but as dawn approached, he saw a blue sky on the horizon and sunlight begin to spill into his house. It was at last clear to him why he hadn't heard an air-raid siren.
