Inclement Weather Policy

Tornado Watch is issued when weather conditions are favorable for the development of severe thunderstorms called a Supercell capable of producing tornadoes. A tornado watch; therefore, implies it is also a severe thunderstorm watch.
Tornado Warning is defined as an alert issued by national weather forecasting agencies to warn the public that severe thunderstorms with tornadoes are imminent or occurring. Immediate shelter should be sought.
Severe Thunderstorm Watch does not necessarily mean that severe weather is occurring, only that atmospheric conditions have created a significant risk for severe weather to occur.
Severe Thunderstorm Warning is an alert issued when trained storm spotters or a Doppler weather radar indicate that a thunderstorm is producing or will soon produce dangerously large hail or high winds, capable of causing significant damage. Immediate shelter should be sought.
A high wind warning is issued when either sustained winds of 40 mph or higher exist for one hour or more or wind gusts are 58 mph or higher for any duration. Immediate shelter should be sought.
