Thunderstorm Safety

7/7/2022 (Permalink)

Summer storms are inevitable in our area, and that means that you should have a plan in case things turn dangerous.

According to the National Weather Service, a thunderstorm is considered severe when either hail is 1 inch in diameter or larger and/or wind of 58 miles per hour or greater is expected. Similar to tornado warnings, severe thunderstorm warnings alert the public of a polygon-shaped warning normally for 30 to 60 minutes at a time. These warnings could indicate imminent danger to life and property. There is also a severe thunderstorm watch, which is issued when severe thunderstorms are possible in the area, but it does not mean they will occur.
