Septe ember 2015
Over 90% off all presid dentially deeclared disaasters are we eather relateed, leading to o around 50 00 deaths an nd over $23 billlion in damaage per yearr. To help Am mericans guaard against the e ravages oof severe w weather, th he National Weather Serrvice (NW WS), in partnership p with eemergency maanagement, designed the voluntary StormReadyy program. Sto ormReady provides jurissdictions with a standard level of pre eparedness for hazarrdous weatther and recognizes em mergency m managers fo or their harrd work. Since the pro ogram’s in ception in 1999, ovver 2,300 counties, com mmunities, universitiees, tribal nations, ccommercial enterprises, go overnment o offices and m military instaallations have been reco ognized as SttormReady.
Gu uidelines are e based on population an nd include: Establishing a 24‐hourr Warning Point P (WP) and a Emergenncy Operatio ons Center (EOC) with redundant methods fo or receiving NWS warnings and relaaying them tto the publicc, including N NOAA Weatther Radios placed in kkey facilities Ensuring hazardous we eather is add dressed in Em mergency Reesponse Plans Providing education and d outreach ab bout hazardo ous weather, including a SSkywarn Weaather Spotterr network Maintainin ng a strong working re elationship between thhe emergen ncy manager and the local NWS Forecast O Office OC/WP is ab ble to monito or local weather observation data fo or hazardous conditionss Ensuring EO
The appropriate community or countty or EOC official comppletes a StorrmReady application based on populatio on. The applicationn is online at ww ww.stormreaady.noaa.go ov. Once com mpleted, yo ou submit thhe applicatio on to the loccal National Weather Service offfice. It is then revieewed by th he local Sto ormReady board, b comp prised of NWS N representatives a nd local an nd state em mergency maanagement.

E-2 February 22, 2016 A llocal StormR Ready board d, comprised d of NWS offficials and sstate and local emergen ncy managers, reviews your applicatio on. The boaard conductss a site visitt to verify the applicatiion and then either approves the ds improvem ments. Storm mReady recoognitions aree valid for 3 years, at wh hich time a reccognition or recommend sim mple renewaal process must occurs. On nce officiallyy recognized d, your local NWS office e will arrangge an optional ceremon ny in your ccommunity commending tthe prepared dness efforts of your civvic leaders aand emergen ncy responders.

The Nation nal StormReeady Board addresses challenges, prioritizes pro ojects and identifies futture goals for the proggram. A lonng standing goal for thee board is to o establish mo ore incentivves such as a StormRe eady grant, that will better supportt jurisdiction ns in becom ming StormR Ready and maaintaining th heir ability to o deal with h hazardous w weather. “StormRea ady helped Lewis and Cla ark County up pgrade its Co mmunity Ratiting System (CRS) rating ffrom a 9 to an n 8, which me eans a 10% discount in NFIP N flood in nsurance pre emiums. It a also provided d the impetus fo or the county y to provide NOAA N Weathe er radios to 5 50 public build dings in Helena, East Hele ena, and the re est of the cou unty, includin ng 23 schools s.

however, another jurisdiction within the county may provide that resource.
Appendix A Chicago Area StormReady Guidelines Guideline 1: Communications & Coordination Center The key to disaster management is effective communication. This is especially true in natural hazard emergencies (e.g. flood, wildfire, tsunami) where rapid changes may permit only short lead-time warnings that require an immediate, educated response. 1. 24-Hour Warning Point. To receive recognition under the StormReady Program, an applying agency will need to have a 24-hour warning point (WP) that can receive NWS information and provide local reports and advice. Typically, this might be a law enforcement or fire department dispatching point. For communities without a local dispatching point, another jurisdiction within the county could act in that capacity for them. The warning point will need to have:
