I am glad that UNCW has a system in place to notify the students of potentially dangerous situations. But a simple alert message (along with the alarm that sounded loudly) would have been enough. If there had been a tornado, I am confident that the highly educated meteorologists of the National Weather Service here in Wilmington would have issued a warning. Please leave the warnings to the professionals who have a sophisticated radar and years of training.
