During a natural disaster, timely information is critical. Here’s how to stay informed:
- Sign Up for Emergency Alerts: Register for local government and weather alerts on your phone.
- Use Weather Apps: Apps like NOAA Weather or The Weather Channel provide real-time updates.
- Battery-Powered Radio: In case of power outages, a radio allows you to tune into emergency broadcasts.
- Social Media and News Outlets: Follow official accounts for updates, but avoid rumors or unverified information.
Action Tip: Familiarize yourself with your community’s emergency notification system, such as sirens or automated phone messages.
