With just a little knowledge about weather safety, you can greatly reduce your risk of the weather getting the best of you.

The American Red Cross has partnered with The Weather Channel in "Project Safeside", developed to help you and your family prepare for severe weather emergencies. For some great information about all aspects of weather safety, including flooding, tornadoes, hurricanes, winter storms, thunderstorms, and heat waves, check out these two web sites:
