We, Clio Area Skywarn, are to promote a group effort between the
National Weather Service and our Community. Our Storm Spotters
serves the Community by participating in an organized effort to watch
for storms approaching this area and to warn of the formation of
tornadoes or other threatening severe weather, such as high wind
gusts, large hail, and heavy rainfall.
Even with the use of Doppler Radar there is a need for spotters in
the field. The radar can only detect the parent circulation that spawns.
The spotters information is needed about whether or not a tornado
is actually being produced and to tell its precise location. The role
of a storm spotter is to serve as the eyes and ears of the NWS during
severe weather situations. The information provided by storm
spotters has enabled the NWS to issue more timely and accurate
warnings for tornadoes, severe thunderstorms and flash floods.
We will also Educate people on Severe Weather, Teaching the
Hazards and Safety procedures. Please make a Donation or become
a Sponsor to help us keep this going.
THANKS!
