Rick Shanklin Quotations

If we have some confidence that things will shift in this direction we want to tell people.

Our intention is for people to treat it as it is a warning and to take action.

Weather radios are absolutely critical for people to be alerted of tornado warnings, severe weather warnings especially in the over night hours.

When we issue a warning, watch or advisory it will light up flash and give an audible tone. If it's overnight it will wake you up.

You've got to be prepared both a day in advance really to keep up with what's going on and the day of the event knowing that severe weather's possible and certainly when something specific like a tornado to developed.
