SEVERE WEATHER PREPAREDNESS WEEK FACTS
Although Georgia has some
of the most beautiful weather
in the country, it’s still suscep
tible to a wide variety of natu
ral disasters. During Severe
Weather Preparedness Week,
Feb. 1-5, 2021, Georgians
are encouraged to learn about
possible severe weather threats
and how to prepare for them.
Each day has a different focus.
Family Preparedness/
NOAA Weather Radio Day -
Monday, Feb. 1
• If a disaster struck, would
your family know what to do?
What if you were separated?
Sit down with your family to
decide how you will get in
contact with each other, where
you will go and what you will
do in an emergency.
• Also on Feb. 1, take a
few minutes to program your
NOAA Weather Radio. If you
don’t have a weather radio,
consider purchasing one. They
are the most reliable way to
learn about storms before
they hit.
Thunderstorm Safety -
Tuesday, Feb. 2
• Thunderstorms are com
mon in Burke County, and they
shouldn’t be underestimat
ed. They can produce strong
winds, lightning, tornadoes,
hail and flash flooding.
• Nearly 10 percent of thun
derstorms are classified as se
vere, meaning they have winds
of at least 58 miles per hour,
hail at least three-quarters of
an inch thick or are capable of
producing a tornado.
• Remember to tie down
loose outdoor items before se
vere thunderstorms. Postpone
outdoor activities and stay
inside.
Tornado Safety drill to occur
at 9 a.m. - Wednesday, Feb. 3
• Tornadoes are some of
nature’s most violent storms,
generating wind speeds that
can exceed 250 miles per hour.
• A tornado watch means
a tornado is possible in your
area. A tornado warning means
a tornado has been spotted,
and you should take shelter
immediately.
• It’s important for everyone
in the family to know the safest
place to go during a tornado.
Storm cellars and basements
provide the best protection.
If underground shelter is not
available, go to an interior
room or hallway on the lowest
hood possible.
Lightning Safety - Thursday,
Feb. 4
• Lightning can strike from
several miles away. To deter
mine whether it’s safe to be
outside, remember the 30/30
Rule: go indoors if, after seeing
lightning, you cannot count to
30 before hearing thunder. Stay
indoors for 30 minutes after the
last clap of thunder.
• Avoid showering or bath
ing during thunderstorms, as
plumbing and bathroom fix
tures can conduct electricity
from lightning.
Flood Safety - Friday, Feb. 5
• Nearly half of all hood-
related deaths occur when
people drive into fioodwaters
and their vehicle is swept
away. It only takes two feet of
water to sweep away a vehicle.
Remember: turn around, don’t
drown.
• Protect your important
documents from hooding by
making copies and placing
them in a waterproof container,
like a plastic bag.
