🌪️ Tornado season in Alabama runs from November into May. While the number and severity of tornadoes varies year to year, preparation is non-negotiable. Is your safety plan ready?
Key things to consider:
1️⃣ Determine your safe place before stormy weather. Examples: windowless interior room on the lowest floor, interior stairwell, basement, designated community shelter or safer place, and similar.
2️⃣ Have multiple reliable ways to receive weather alerts, including while asleep! Examples: NOAA Weather Radio, push alerts from media and/or your county emergency management, reliable weather apps., WEA (Wireless Emergency Alerts), and friends and family.
3️⃣ Have a kit that includes essentials such as flashlights, whistle, first-aid kit, sturdy shoes, helmets, and bulky blankets.
It's Fall Severe Weather Awareness Day 2026.
