Lunch and Learn: Severe Weather Awareness

Join Public Safety to learn more about the common severe weather hazards we experience in Minnesota and how to prepare yourself best.

April 13–17 is Severe Weather Awareness Week! Statewide tornado drills are scheduled for Thursday, April 16, at 1:45 p.m. and 6:45 p.m. Outdoor warning sirens will sound in a simulated tornado warning. We encourage you to locate your closest severe weather shelter location to best prepare yourself. When you hear the siren, stay in the building but go to the area of shelter. Students who are concerned about not being able to get to the area of shelter due to disability should meet with a Disability and Access specialist to create an emergency preparedness plan.
