Monthly Ready Check
One small action before the next hard weather day.
This month: choose two ways to receive warnings, then test them while the weather is calm.
Why two alert paths matter
Phones are useful, but they can be muted, uncharged, out of reach, or affected by a local outage. Indiana preparedness guidance recommends having multiple ways to receive weather alerts, including phone alerts and a NOAA Weather Radio.
Take the ready check
- Turn on official weather alerts on the phone you carry most often.
- Choose a second source that works for your household or organization.
- Tell the people you care for what a watch and warning mean for the plan.
- Write down your safe place before a warning is issued.
