Emergency Management

Click on the link below to find out information on our Skywarn and Storm Spotting Team! What we do, how we do it and how you can be a part of it! Spotters are concerned citizens, amateur radio operators, business owners, emergency management personnel and public safety officials who volunteer their time and energy to report on hazardous weather impacting their communities. Spotters provide real-time ground-truth of local conditions - such as hail size, wind speed, tornado development, and local damage - to help warn the public. Online training classes are coming soon!
