Severe Weather Awareness Week was the week of Mar. 4-10 for Kansas. Do you know where your nearest storm shelter is, or do you have one? Tuesday morning, the City of Coffeyville blared their city siren for a statewide tornado drill. This is the perfect time to practice and update your emergency preparedness plan. Coffeyville has a list of storm shelters including Coffeyville Regional Medical Center, Community Elementary, Field Kindley High School, Lutheran Church, and First Church of God.

The City's website has the list with addresses and details. Go to coffeyville.com and type in storm shelter in the top search field. Results will also give an option to learn how to register your building as a storm shelter to share with others in case of a tornado, for example. For more information, go online or call the City Clerk at 620-252-6108.
