I subscribe to RC Heli Pilot, but they are going out of business. So we won`t be getting anymore printed issues from them.
They did mention that new owners will be taking over, and that the magazine will be available in digital format soon though.
I copied this off of their facebook page:
Dear Hobby Followers, Readers and Manufacturers,
Maplegate Media Group and its staff would like to thank you for allowing us to serve your hobby media needs since 2003. Our Titles, RC Driver, Fly RC Magazine, Drones Magazine, RC Heli Pilot, Airsoft Insider, RC Boat and our special titles have been regarded as the best in the industry, but due to the changing forecast in publishing we are unable to continue our print publications.
With that said, our titles have not ceased to exist. The titles are currently in a state of restructure and transfer to new ownership. We will share more details with you as soon as they are available.
We appreciate your patience during this time of restructure and look forward to the new and exciting changes for our digital titles. Greg Vogel, Matt Maziarz, Siri Wheeler, Jeremy Hendricks and the rest of the staff that you’ve followed are eager to continue sharing their passion for the hobby with you for years to come.

Of course I kept up with things as usual here as well. First with the SPC forecasts to see what the potential we were expecting and then around noon I had a look at the HRRR models to see when things were expected to start firing off. Ran my radar software from 3pm until a bit ago when I finally shut it down. Having the radar software, I usually have at the least a good 10 minute warning if not more if something is heading my way or not.
Like Tony... all I saw was high winds, a bit of hail and lightning this evening. Did a lot of monitoring of the storms west and south of here and was glad I wasn't in either location.... Hmm, I see things ramped back up east of here, there's a couple of tornado warnings active. Everything is starting to bow out, so maybe it'll die back down soon.

Been raining pretty much all day so I have not made it out. I did get woke up with lightning hitting right in my yard this morning though... TWICE!!! Not sure where it hit, again, it's raining and I ain't going out there lol. But, another round of severe storms later this afternoon.
