Good Advice for all states in the severe weather forecast:
BMX:
No matter what graph, what color, what image you see, the message is the same: prepare now so you can be safe if a warning is issued. Figure out multiple ways to receive warnings, check your weather radio, change out the batteries so they are fresh. Outdoor sirens WILL NOT WAKE YOU. Don't rely on them. Choose a safe place. If you don't have a safe place, contact your local Emergency Management Agency for shelter locations, check their Facebook and Twitter pages, as many share that information. Check with your local media for updates on safety information. Prepare that safety kit. Have it ready. Get your pet leash/carrier handy, and be sure you can reach your pets quickly. Taking even 10 minutes today could make a huge difference tomorrow!
