Severe weather safety guides
Use official alerts, local instructions, shelter or evacuation decisions, and household fallbacks to prepare for dangerous weather.
Choose a tornado shelter location, understand watches and warnings, plan for manufactured homes, apartments, vehicles, pets, accessibility, and post-storm hazards.
Understand winter storm watches, warnings, and advisories, why local criteria vary, where to read the full alert, and which household actions belong at each stage.
