Statewide tornado drill planned March 11
Posted by Kimber Crull
Missouri S&T will take part in Missouri’s statewide tornado drill at 10 a.m. Wednesday, March 11.
This drill was rescheduled from Severe Weather Preparedness Week, originally held March 2-6. The National Weather Service will test its emergency alert procedures, and local agencies will activate outdoor warning sirens.
During the drill, the campus community is encouraged to practice tornado safety by moving to the lowest level of a building and into an interior room away from windows. Review how you receive weather alerts and be familiar with the difference between a watch (prepare to act) and a warning (take action immediately).
The drill will be canceled in the event of severe weather.
