Severe Weather Safety Tips

With severe storms possible starting this afternoon and into tonight, we encourage you to be Weather Ready and have multiple ways to receive warnings! Make a plan this morning and know where to seek shelter if a Severe Thunderstorm Warning or Tornado Warning is issued for your home, apartment, or workplace later today! Taking action early can help save lives!

A tornado WATCH means BE PREPARED. A tornado WARNING means TAKE ACTION. If there is a tornado watch, pay extra close attention to the weather and be ready to act, because tornadoes are possible. If there is a tornado warning, find shelter immediately, and move to an interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy building. Avoid windows and cover your head to protect yourself from flying debris.
