Sharing this as a heads up.

There is a chance of severe weather for our area tomorrow afternoon.

Be alert and aware of weather conditions around you. Have multiple ways of getting notifications.

Remember. Cell phones alert based on towers. You can get notifications for towers that are outside of your area. It may also fail to alert if signal is unavailable.

Tornado sirens are outdoor warning devices. Meant to alert people outside that it is time to seek shelter. A weather radio in your home is a very valuable safety device when you are inside and cannot hear the sirens.

Stay safe and have a great day!
