When storms are forecast, have a plan before they arrive.
1. Make a plan: know where you and your family will go before the storm arrives, and call your local Emergency Management Agency for local shelter information.
2. Do not rely on Outdoor sirens if you are more than 1 mile away from the closest siren and inside your home.
3. Keep sturdy shoes and boots near your emergency go-kit. (What to put in your go-kit can be found https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1LmNGgBa9K/)
4. Turn up the volume on your NOAA weather radio, keep some extra batteries near, charge your cell phone, and turn off "Do Not Disturb." Follow the National Weather Service and your local weather authority for the most up-to-date information about approaching storms.
