Preparing for severe weather tomorrow, some tips:

  • Know where you are on the map. Watches are issued by county. Warnings are issued by polygon. Know what county you’re in, and specifically where inside that county.
  • Know where the safe place is whether you’re at work, at home, school, etc. Lowest floor, away from windows, as many walls between you and the outside as possible.
  • NOT safe places include cars and mobile homes. The fatalities in our last tornado occurred in mobile homes. Get to safer locations.
