Voluntary Statewide Tornado Safety Drill

  
Severe Weather Awareness Week is March 1-7, 2023. Kentucky Emergency Management, and the National Weather Service, are conducting a Statewide Tornado Safety Drill today, Wednesday, March 1, 2023 at 10:07 AM ET.

If you are willing and able to participate, imagine that a tornado warning is happening, at that time.

Wherever you are, you can find a best available refuge area, just by remembering to D.U.C.K.

D.U.C.K.
Go Down to the Lowest Level.
Get Under Something Sturdy.
Go to the Center of a Permanent Structure.
Keep Away from Exterior Doors and Windows.

This is a great time to think about what you would do if a tornado happened while at school, work, home, or play. Make a plan. Be prepared. More information about tornado safety is available at: https://www.weather.gov/safety/tornado

Sirens will not be sounded, but NOAA Weather Radios will be activated during the test.

Event Date: March 01  10:07 AM  
Contact Information: Gary Folckemer, 859-622-8987
