You only have so much time to shelter ahead of severe weather, and sometimes it's not long enough to charge your phone! Make it a habit to keep your battery at a reliable level so you're always #ReadyOK ✅

Heavy rains are expected in the Southern and Central Plains this week. Be aware of flash flooding and steer clear of flooded roads. Never drive around barricades as you don’t know how deep the water is. Remember, “Turn Around, Don’t Drown!”

There's a risk of excessive rainfall and flash flooding for Central states through Wednesday. During periods of heavy rain, roads can be closed off if they are prone to flooding. Take the time to research alternate travel routes before floods impact your area.

Heavy rain, severe thunderstorms & flash flooding are expected across the U.S. If the road you are traveling is covered in water, don't take a chance. The water may be deeper than it seems or a sink hole may have formed. Remember, turn around, don't drown!

When severe storms are in the forecast, prepare your home by securing loose items and trimming trees that can be knocked over. Severe weather is often accompanied by strong winds that can send outdoor items flying, down power lines, and damage homes.
