Storm: What is the difference between a clock and a warning?

Know when you will find your safe place and search for protection.

Atlanta – Probably on Saturday evening and overnight and a warning message from weather influences is now a good time to remember if you are looking for protection and find your “safe place”. What is the difference between a clock and a warning?

Regard

A Regard The medium weather conditions are favorable for development.

When we are in one Heavy thunderstorm clockIt means that heavy thunderstorms can develop (58 miles per hour of wind or more, 1 “hail or tornados).

When we are in one Tornado clockThis means that the environment is ripe or beneficial for the development of Tornado.

A “particularly dangerous situation” (PDS) tornado watch can be spent very rarely when durable, strong and violent tornados are possible. According to the Storm Prediction Center, this improved wording can also accompany heavy thunderstorms for intensive convective wind storms.

warning

A warning Means that it is either imminent, now appears or is expected.

While A Heavy storm warningWinds of at least 58 miles per hour are possible, 1 “hail and/or a tornado.

While A Tornado warningA tornado occurs or could occur at any moment. Some tornado warnings are with radar intersed, where we see close rotation on the radar. Others are “confirmed with radar”, where we discovered debris on the radar and know a tornado that probably ends up. In other cases, we have a soil confirmation of a tornado on site.

If you are accommodated in a tornado warning, stay calm and quickly move to your tornado-proof place.

  • Sturm cellar or basement offer the best protection.
  • If no underground protection is available, an interior or a hallway on the lowest possible soil is in the best possible option.
