🚨⚠️ DON’T RELY ON OUTDOOR SIRENS! Sirens are meant to alert those who are outdoors when threatening weather is approaching. The most reliable way to receive alerts is via NOAA Weather Radio. #SWPW #MSwx

If you are caught outside in a t-storm... ⚡Seek shelter inside a building or all metal vehicle ⚡If your hair stands on end and your skin tingles, lightning is about to strike. Take cover immediately! ⚡When on the water, head for shore and get into a shelter. #SWPW #MSwx

Do you know the differences between a Tornado Watch, Tornado Warning, and a Tornado Emergency? If a tornado is threatening Starkville, @NWSJacksonMS will issue a warning or emergency. A watch just means the ingredients are there. #SWPW #MSwx

Perhaps the most important thing to know about flash flooding, is knowing NOT to drive through flood waters. Most flood related deaths occur in vehicles. #SWPW #MSwx
