WRI Severe Weather Alerts - Keeping You Safe
Jeremy Davis, Assistant Director of Operations It has been a busy start to the severe weather season for the Northern Gulf of Mexico and Southeastern U.S. coastlines. Several strong fronts over the past month have moved through this region, producing multiple days of severe weather, including a few tornado outbreaks. In fact, most locations have been under a tornado watch between three and six times so far this year. As spring progresses into summer, we will look farther northeast along the U.S. East Coast and into the Great Lakes as the climatological risk spreads north.

At WRI, we aim to give our clients as much notice as possible to the potential of a severe weather outbreak. If you are receiving services, have recently completed services, or are a SeaWeather.net subscriber, you will be warned by one of our Severe Weather Alerts, including for any area in world threatened by an outbreak. These are sent 24-36 hours prior to what we expect to be a widespread outbreak and are complimentary. The alert explains a brief description of where and when the outbreak is expected. If you wish more detailed information for your location, you can simply request a forecast. |
