Just got RadarScope application for my Android phone today. It’s available for iPhone and Mac, too. See http://www.basevelocity.com/
It serves up NEXRAD Level 3 data (like GRLevel3).
It shows the tornado watch outline. Select the nearest radar station (KMHX) and Storm Relative Velocity Tilt 1 and zoom in. You can see the rotating couplets within the storm rotation.
(I have no connection to BaseVelocity - just a happy user.)
LIVE streaming video of pier at Topsail Island (?) http://www.surfchex.com/index.php It is kind of dramatic in the darkness.
