This risk is Moderate usually reserved for days with several supercells producing intense tornadoes and/or very large hail, or an intense squall line with widespread damaging winds. An area where a severe weather outbreak is expected from either numerous intense and long-tracked tornadoes or a long-lived derecho-producing thunderstorm complex that produces hurricane-force wind gusts and widespread damage. This 5 - High risk is reserved for when high confidence exists in widespread coverage of severe weather with embedded instances of extreme severe (i.e., violent tornadoes or very damaging convective wind events). Hazardous Weather Risks Risk Description An advisory is issued when a hazardous weather or hydrologic event is occurring, imminent, or likely. Advisories are for "less serious" conditions than warnings that may cause significant inconvenience, and if caution is not exercised could lead to Advisory situations that may threaten life or property.

    Upshur County Office of Emergency Management Winter Weather Preparation Before Winter Storms and Extreme Cold To Prepare For A Winter Storm You Should Add The Following Supplies To Your Emergency Kit: • Rock salt or more environmentally safe products to melt ice on walkways • Sand to improve traction • Snow shovels and other snow removal equipment • Sufficient heating fuel - You may become isolated in your home and regular fuel sources may be cut off. Store a good supply of dry, seasoned wood for your fireplace or wood-burning stove. • Adequate clothing and blankets to keep you warm • Make a Family Communications Plan. Your family may not be together when disaster strikes, so it is important to know how you will contact one another, how you will get back together and what you will do in case of an emergency. • Listen to a NOAA Weather Radio or other local news channels for critical information from the National Weather Service (NWS). Be alert to changing weather conditions. Upshur County Residents can receive free Weather Alerts by signing up for NIXLE at http://www.NIXLE.com and entering your zip code. • Minimize travel - If travel is necessary, keep a disaster supplies kit in your vehicle. • Bring pets/companion animals inside during winter weather.

  • State of Kansas EE Demonstration Package April 2011
    State of Kansas Exceptional Event Demonstration Package Goodland, KS February 9, 2013 Department of Health and Environment Division of Environment Bureau of Air December 10, 2015 This document contains blank pages to accommodate double-sided printing. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2005, Congress identified a need to account for events that result in exceedances of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) that are exceptional in nature (e.g., not expected to reoccur or caused by acts of nature beyond man-made controls). In response, EPA promulgated the Exceptional Events Rule (EER) to address exceptional events in 40 CFR Parts 50 and 51 on March 22, 2007 (72 FR 13560). On May 2, 2011, in an attempt to clarify this rule, EPA released draft guidance documents on the implementation of the EER to State, tribal and local air agencies for review. The EER allows for states and tribes to “flag” air quality monitoring data as an exceptional event and exclude those data from use in determinations with respect to exceedances or violations of the NAAQS, if EPA concurs with the demonstration submitted by the flagging agency. Western Kansas, due to its geographical location and semi-arid climate conditions is more susceptible to windblown dust events. These events are occasionally captured by various air quality monitoring equipment throughout the state, sometimes resulting in exceedances of the PM10 (airborne particulate matter having a nominal aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to 10 microns) NAAQS. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) believes that the dust event that occurred in February of 2013 exemplifies these types of events.
