Advisory: First Wave of Severe Weather could occur this weekend – Are you ready!!!

Posted on Wednesday, May 15, 2013

Hot and Dry conditions have increased the fire dangers in the area. Be extremely cautious of all open fires. Cooler normal temperatures are expected to return however, we could start seeing our first wave of thunderstorms as well.

This would be a good time to ensure that your Weather Radios have a good battery in them, volume turned up, and alerts set for our area. If you press the weather button and you do not hear the current weather conditions check your programming and location of your radios.

WEATHER RADIOS ARE YOUR FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE AGAINST ALL HAZARDS!

Keep in mind that a weather radio is not the same as a scanner. Contact Information: Donald Thomson Lake County SD 605-256-7611 lakeema@lakecountysd.com
