This story does not necessarily represent the position of our parent company, IBM.Ciara Chen, center, of Las Vegas works out with her daughter Lilliana, 2, foreground, during the ninth annual Celebration of Moms event at Downtown Summerlin, Saturday, May 7, 2022, in Las Vegas. The Weather Company’s primary journalistic mission is to report on breaking weather news, the environment and the importance of science to our lives. You may also want to turn on space heaters in your bedroom(s) to keep them warm before the high winds arrive. In the colder months, you may want to raise the temperature on your thermostat before the highest winds arrive, in case you lose power for a few hours or longer. Trees could fall in the road ahead of you, which could be hard to see at night until it's right in front of you, or they could fall on your vehicle. Snow and/or dust embedded in high winds can reduce visibility. Your vehicle could be blown off the road. Avoid driving during the strongest winds, especially in high-profile vehicles. This is because tornadoes can rapidly develop within squall lines of severe thunderstorms with little warning, and also due to the danger of falling trees. Take cover from a severe thunderstorm warning much as you would a tornado warning, in the lowest floor of your home or building, preferably in a basement or a specially designed safe room. Seek shelter immediately upon receiving an NWS severe thunderstorm warning. Severe thunderstorms with damaging winds can move rapidly, so you may not have as much time as you think.
If you have a NOAA weather radio, make sure it has fresh batteries in case of a power outage and leave it on at night, so you can be awakened. Turn on "government alerts" on your smartphone, so you can be alerted by the National Weather Service, even at night. Make sure you have multiple methods of receiving NWS alerts, including by smartphone, NOAA weather radio or local media.
