Jeff Klein, Emergency Management Agency director for Wood County, has issued the following advisory:
Wood County is under a “Slight Risk” for severe thunderstorms this afternoon. A strong cold will move through late this afternoon. Strong to severe storms will be possible in the late afternoon/ early evening ahead of the front. Damaging winds and hail, as well as heavy downpours are the greatest threat, but there is the possibility for a few isolated tornados.
Now is the time to make sure all loose out door items are secured to prevent flying projectiles.
