INFORMATIVE 

Tags: Storms, Saftey

There are a number of things that you can do to be prepared for a storm. Below is our list:

	Know the county or parish in which you live and the names of the nearby major cities. Severe weather warnings are issued on a county or parish basis.
	Check the weather forecast before leaving for extended outdoor periods.
	Watch for signs of approaching storms.
	If a storm is approaching, keep a NOAA weather Radio or AM/FM radio with you.
	Postpone outdoor activities if a thunderstorm is imminent. This is your best way to avoid being caught in a dangerous situation.
	Check for those who have trouble taking shelter if severe weather threatens.
