about impossible weather situations. In his dream, he was walking in a _________________ when a(n)

_________________ tornado jumped down only _________________ feet away! He ran the other direction seeking a

thought possible. Worrying about the possibility of a fl ash fl ood, the character pulled a remote control airplane out of his

emergency kit, sat on it, and fl ew off into the _________________ sunset.

Draw what you would put in your emergency kit. What personal items would you want to take with you in a moments notice? Then, cut out the pieces and you have just created your own puzzle.


An _________________________ is for “less serious” conditions than warnings that may cause signifi cant inconvenience, and if caution is not exercised could lead to situations that may threaten life or property.

A ___________________________ is used when the risk of a hazardous weather event has increased signifi cantly, but its occurrence, location, or timing is still uncertain. It is intended to provide enough lead time so those who need to set their plans in motion can do so. A _____________________ means that hazardous weather is possible. People should have a plan of action in case a storm threatens and they should listen for later information and possible warnings especially when planning travel or outdoor activities.

A ____________________________ is issued when a hazardous weather event is occurring, imminent, or likely. A _____________________________ means weather conditions pose a threat to life or property. People in the path of the storm need to take protective action.
