Severe Weather Awareness Day 7: More than 50% of all flood fatalities are vehicle-related. You never know how deep the water is or if the road has been washed away or compromised beneath the water. Don’t risk driving into floodwaters. Turn Around, Don’t Drown! NEVER drive around barricades into floodwaters! Most flood fatalities are vehicle-related. It takes only 12 inches of fast-moving water to carry off a small car and 18 inches of water to sweep a larger vehicle away. When you drive into floodwaters, you’re not only putting your own life at risk, but also the lives of your rescuers. It’s far better to be late and remain safe than to take a risk and possibly lose your life.

Severe Weather Awareness Day 6: A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of a thunderstorm down to the ground. Tornadoes are capable of completely destroying well-made structures, uprooting trees, and hurling objects through the air like deadly missiles. Tornadoes can occur at any time of day or night and at any time of the year. Do you know where your safe place is at home? What about at school, work, or church? Take the time now to make sure you know where to go if there was ever a tornado coming for your location. Get to the lowest level possible, away from all windows and doors, and try to get to the most interior room possible.

Severe Weather Awareness Day 5: Having multiple ways to receive weather alerts can save your life, or someone you love. The mission of the National Weather Service is to protect life and property, and we do that by being the official agency to issue all weather watches, warnings, and advisories. You can receive weather alerts for your location from smartphone apps or the Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) system, a NOAA Weather Radio, the internet, or from local broadcast media. It is important to get your weather alerts from well-known, trusted, and official weather sources, such as the NWS, local broadcast media, or Kentucky Emergency Management (KYEM).

Severe Weather Awareness Day 4: Severe thunderstorms are officially defined as storms that are capable of producing hail that is an inch or larger or wind gusts over 58 mph. Hail this size can damage property such as plants, roofs and vehicles. Wind this strong is able to break off large branches, knock over trees or cause structural damage to trees. Some severe thunderstorms can produce hail larger than softballs or winds over 100 mph, so please pay attention to the weather so you know when severe storms are possible. Storms that produce hailstones the size of dimes or larger can result in dents on cars, damage to roofs, break windows, and perhaps cause casualties. Large hailstones can fall at speeds faster than 100 mph. During high winds, falling trees and broken branches can become dangerous objects. Stay safe by avoiding exterior rooms and windows and by using caution when driving
