Tornado Season is here..

Tornado season, typically occurring from late spring to early summer, can bring severe weather that impacts communities. Understanding tornado formation, the importance of weather warnings, and safety measures during storms is crucial for keeping yourself and your loved ones safe. Tornadoes spawn from supercell thunderstorms and are classified by the Enhanced Fujita Scale, which measures their intensity based on the damage they cause. When severe thunderstorms develop, it’s essential to have a plan in place—seek shelter, stay informed through local alerts, and understand the signs of an impending tornado, such as a dark, greenish sky, large hail, and a loud roar similar to a freight train. Engaging with your community during tornado season, sharing experiences, and learning from each other can foster resilience and preparedness.
