Today during Severe Summer Weather Awareness Week, we're going over tornados

5

ND Dept of Emergency Services issued the following announcement.

Today during Severe Summer Weather Awareness Week, we're going over tornados. 

Some people are especially vulnerable to weather hazards.

When a Tornado Warning is issued, the standard safety action is to immediately take shelter in a safe place. However, people with a lower-level of mobility, such as the elderly or disabled, may need to take action beforehand, such as when a Tornado Watch is issued.

Help them and others in your community prepare by helping them identify a safe space, practicing (and timing) tornado drills with them, and showing them how to receive Tornado Watches and Warnings.
