Warmer weather brings the beginning of tornado season. Tornadoes pose a greater risk than many other natural disasters because of their imminent threat. A coming flood or hurricane usually guarantees at least a 24-hour notice, but a tornado can touch down in a matter of minutes, if not seconds.

If you live in a tornado-threatened area, you need a plan in place now. It’s not a matter of if your home and family are at risk, but when they’re at risk of a tornado. Having a tornado preparation and response plan will give you added peace of mind, no matter what happens.
