Marshall Medical Centers in Boaz and other emergency organizations are preparing for the worst with two tents set up outside their hospital branches.
Hospital officials said it s precautionary right now, but could be used for patients. This is preparatory. We re making preparations for if things do get worse, explained Marshall County Emergency Management Director Anita McBurnett.
McBurnett said right now, she hopes the tent outside of Marshall Medical Center North and South is never used.
