Severe Thunderstorm Warning

A Severe Thunderstorm Warning means that a thunderstorm with damaging winds (often 58 mph or higher), large hail, or tornadoes has been observed or indicated by radar in your area. It’s a serious alert that conditions are favorable for dangerous weather, which could cause property damage, injuries, or power outages. When a warning is issued, you should seek shelter immediately, stay indoors, avoid windows, and stay tuned to weather updates. It indicates imminent or ongoing severe weather, so taking prompt safety precautions is crucial.
