INDIANAPOLIS -- The cold temperatures may have you thinking about snow, but you need to be ready for storms too.
In fact, a tornado has been reported in Indiana in every month of the year. In December of 2015, just days before Christmas, three EF-1 tornadoes hit the Greenwood, Noblesville and Williamstown areas. The tornadoes packed winds around 100 mph.
It’s a reminder severe weather can happen in the winter too. That’s not to say we’ll have tornadoes this winter, but it’s a good idea to keep your severe weather safety plan fresh in your mind.
Remember, if a tornado warning is issued, go to the lowest level, interior room of your home. A bathroom or closet, if you don’t have a basement.
You can also get both winter and severe storm alerts sent right to your phone through the Storm Shield App.
