🚨 The National Weather Service has issued a Tornado Watch in the District of Columbia until 7PM today, 3/16. A Tornado Watch means that tornadoes are possible in the area. Very strong and dangerous winds may cause downed trees/branches, localized power outages, and damage to homes and buildings. BEFORE A TORNADO: - Secure loose outdoor objects like trash cans, outdoor furniture, and other items that could become dangerous flying debris during a tornado. - Charge your phone and other communication, medical, or assistive devices in case of a power outage. - Identify a safe space to shelter if a Tornado Warning is issued. Visit ready.dc.gov/pages/hazard-t… for more safety tips. DURING A TORNADO: - Go to the nearest sturdy building if you are outside or in a vehicle. - Move to an interior room on the lowest floor if possible. STAY AWAY from windows.

Severe storms are forecasted to affect the District this afternoon and evening (3/16). There is potential for strong thunderstorms that could bring damaging winds, heavy rain, hail, and possible tornadoes. Secure outdoor items like trash cans and patio/balcony furniture before winds increase. Loose objects can become dangerous in severe weather. Learn more storm safety tips at ready.dc.gov.
