Prepare For Spring Storms

Spring has officially arrived on Delmarva and with it comes an increased risk of late afternoon and evening thunderstorms, some severe, as cold air masses converge with warm spring air.

Worcester County Emergency Services encourages residents to take time now to prepare for severe spring weather emergencies.

Keep fresh batteries on hand for flashlights and portable radios. Keep a supply of ready to eat foods that do not have to be heated or cooked in the event of power outages. Consider investing in a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration weather radio, which makes it possible to remain informed on storms and to receive emergency information.
