Spc Swo D1

ACTION 8 WEATHER AUTHORITY (WAKA) – Much of our area is under a SLIGHT (level 2/5) risk for severe weather through Tuesday night, with more storms possible Wednesday.

Hazards include damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph, hail up to quarter size. A brief tornado or two cannot be ruled out.

There is a MARGINAL (level 1/5) sever risk Wednesday. Storms during the afternoon and evening may produce damaging wind gusts and large hail.

Now is the time to prepare. First, download the free Action 8 weather app:

Next, make sure you have more than one way to get weather alerts. A NOAA weather radio in addition to your phone (with your emergency alerts turned on) make for a good combination. Do not depend on sirens to keep you protected.

Know where to go inside your home if severe weather is imminent. If you live in a mobile home, you need to find sturdy shelter somewhere else. Plan now for what you will do.

Action 8 News will bring you live coverage on-air, online and on your phone. We will be staffed around the clock until the severe weather threat passes.
