(Indianapolis, Ind.) - The Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS) encourages Hoosiers to plan now for extreme weather as Indiana recognizes Severe Weather Preparedness Week (March 14-20), as proclaimed by Governor Eric Holcomb. “Indiana has seen numerous destructive storms over the years, and Severe Weather Preparedness Week serves as a reminder for individuals to prepare,” said Steve Cox, executive director of IDHS. “Taking the time to plan, prepare and practice can help minimize weather-related deaths, injuries and property damage, especially with the increased potential for thunderstorms, tornadoes and flooding in Indiana during the spring and early summer.”

How To Prepare For Severe Weather

STATEWIDE This week, March 14th through March 20th, marks Severe Weather Preparedness Week in Indiana. According to National Weather Service meteorologist Sam Lashley, this week is a time for people to “plan and think ahead” before severe weather develops. Lashley defines severe weather as “straight line damaging winds of 58 miles per hour or greater, large hail of one inch in diameter or larger, tornadoes and flash flooding.” Lashley says people in Indiana will most commonly experience severe weather through thunderstorms. However, Indiana does experience all forms of severe weather, so it’s best to be prepared for anything. Lashley emphasizes that this week, you should talk to your family about your severe weather plans.
