Spotter Training and Severe Weather Preparedness Week

Severe weather season is quickly approaching, it's already begun for some in the south, and it's time to start thinking about how you can keep your family safe this spring and summer.  Severe Weather Preparedness Week runs February 27th - March 5th and it's important for you to plan ahead and know what to do in the event severe weather strikes.  For more information go to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency's website: www.state.il.us/iema/.  

Another sign spring is right around the corner, spotter training classes.  Classes have been ongoing for the past couple of weeks and there are a few more in the upcoming weeks.  Spotters are a very valuable tool not only for the National Weather Service, but also for us at WTVO.  You are our eyes to what is going on in the community and the information you relay to us we can then report to the NWS.
