During extreme weather, the ability to receive storm warnings can save your life. But many non-English speakers in the United States have limited access to information about hazards as dangerous as tornadoes, hurricanes, wildfires and floods.
Emergency personnel, media broadcasters and weather forecasters have ramped up efforts to serve the Spanish-speaking population, but it’s a work in progress.
An incident in 2013 exposed the danger of the lack of non-English severe weather information. As a tornado moved through El Reno, Okla., a family of seven took refuge in a drainage ditch They were originally from Guatemala and warnings of the risk for severe flash flooding never reached the Spanish-speaking family. All drowned. A National Weather Service review concluded that a lack of Spanish-language communication was a factor in the tragedy.

At the start of 2016, Warehouse on Park End Street closed as part of the same plans to transform that part of Oxford into a new ‘social sciences quarter’.
Lola Lo closed in Magdalen Street in 2017 after Eclectic Bars confirmed it would not be re-signing its lease.
Before that, it had been student club Po Na Na for many years then became retro-themed nightclub Fever.
Ocean & Collins in Park End Street closed for good in 2008.
In its opening month in 2005, after taking over the venue from Chicago Rock, the nightspot denied turning down entry to a group of 60 women who said the club only wanted ‘sexy, stylish’ clubbers not ‘frumpy customers from council estates’.
