Weather warnings by SMS

Deb and I don't watch much television, and we don't usually have the radio on during the day. We need another way to get severe weather warnings, and probably the most effective way would be via SMS. I don't expect the Bureau of Meteorology to set up an SMS weather alert system, but I could probably write something myself that gets the local weather warnings file, decides whether to warn me and forwards something to my phone via an email-to-SMS service.

PS - Should be simple enough.
PPS - As long as the computer stays on and has a network connection.
