It’s Severe Weather Awareness Week – Are You Ready? Drills Coming This Week

Iowans are ever mindful that severe weather may strike at any time. Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management, along with the National Weather Service (Des Moines office) designate the last full week of March as Severe Weather Awareness Week in Iowa. The goal is to provide Iowans a better understanding about the state’s spring weather hazards. Specific topics addressed include flash floods, tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, weather warnings and family preparedness.



In conjunction with Severe Weather Awareness week, the Agency will be holding tornado drills this week. Please find the tornado shelters near you and be ready for a drill this week.
