What is “StormReady”?
StormReady
is a voluntary program developed by the National Weather Service to
help communities implement procedures to reduce the potential for
disastrous, weather-related events. It helps communities attain a
new level of preparedness and encourages communities to take a proactive
approach to improve local hazardous weather operations plans, communication,
and public awareness.
