Arkansas officials are urging residents to prepare for severe weather as the state observes Severe Weather Awareness Week.
A weather watch indicates that residents should be prepared and have a plan to seek shelter if necessary. A warning, however, signals that immediate action is required, and residents should seek shelter right away, according to authorities.
The campaign aims to educate the public on how to respond appropriately to weather alerts and stay safe during storms. Officials recommend reviewing emergency plans and ensuring that emergency supplies are readily available.
Severe Weather Awareness Week serves as a reminder for Arkansans to stay informed and prepared for potential weather emergencies.
