2021 TORNADO/SEVERE WEATHER RESPONSE PLAN Tyler / Smith County
2021 TORNADO/SEVERE WEATHER RESPONSE PLAN Tyler / Smith County PURPOSE This plan is designed to serve as a guide and to provide useful information to the public. Users of this plan are encouraged to direct all questions to the appropriate designated agencies. AS ALWAYS, IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION, PLEASE CALL 911 SCIENCE Tornadoes are a destructive force that in the United States occur an average 1300 times annually, resulting in an average of 80 deaths per year. In Texas alone, tornadoes occur an average of 137 times annually, resulting in an average of 8 deaths per year. A single tornado or an outbreak of tornadoes can kill dozens at one time and can cause widespread damage. A tornado is defined as a violently rotating column of air extending from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind speeds of 300 mph or more. Damage paths can be in excess of one mile wide and 50 miles long. Likely conditions indicating a tornado include a dark, greenish sky, large hail, a wall cloud, and a loud roar similar to a freight train. Tornadoes may appear as a visible funnel extending partially or fully to the ground and may be accompanied by debris. While some tornadoes are clearly visible, they can be nearly transparent until they have picked up dust and debris, or they may be hidden or obscured by rain or low-hanging clouds. Tornadoes can happen during any time of the year and at any time of the day. They may strike quickly and without warning.

2020/21 Cold Weather Response Plan Tyler / Smith County November 1, 2020
2020/21 COLD WEATHER RESPONSE PLAN TYLER / SMITH COUNTY NOVEMBER 1, 2020 PURPOSE This Cold Weather Response Plan is designed to serve as a guide and to provide useful information to the public. It includes tips on avoiding exposures as well as recognizing the signs and symptoms of cold weather-related emergencies. Additionally, it highlights resources that are available to the public during the winter months, including sheltering locations. RESPONSIBILITY / LEAD AGENCY The Tyler Fire Department is the lead agency for the Cold Weather Response Plan. Agencies or citizens needing information or administrative assistance should call the City of Tyler Fire Department at (903) 535-0005. After hours, or to report hazardous but non-emergency conditions, call either the Tyler Police Department at (903) 531-1000 or the Smith County Sheriff’s Office at (903) 566-6600. For public affairs information call the Northeast Texas Public Health District at (903) 535-0020. Call 211 as an additional resource. ……..… AS ALWAYS, IN AN EMERGENCY, PLEASE CALL 911 …….…. SCIENCE - HYPOTHERMIA When exposed to cold temperatures, your body begins to lose heat faster than it can be produced. Prolonged exposure to cold will eventually use up your body’s stored energy. The result is hypothermia, or abnormally low body temperature. Body temperature that is too low affects the brain, making the victim unable to think clearly or move well. This makes hypothermia particularly dangerous because a person may not know it is happening and won’t be able to do anything about it. Hypothermia is most likely at very cold temperatures, but it can occur even at cool temperatures (above 40°F) if a person becomes chilled from rain, sweat, or submersion in cold water.

2019 HEAT RESPONSE PLAN Tyler / Smith County
2019 HEAT RESPONSE PLAN Tyler / Smith County PURPOSE This plan is designed to serve as a guide and to provide useful information to the public. Users of this plan are encouraged to direct all questions to the appropriate designated agencies. ……..… AS ALWAYS, IN AN EMERGENCY, PLEASE CALL 911 …….…. RESPONSIBILITY/LEAD AGENCY The City of Tyler Fire Department is the lead agency for the Heat Response Plan. Other agencies or human service entities needing information or administrative assistance should call the City of Tyler Fire Department at (903) 535-0005 as the primary contact and/or the Northeast Texas Public Health District at (903) 535-0037 as the secondary contact. For public affairs information call the Northeast Texas Public Health District at (903) 535-0020. Call 211 as an additional resource. SCIENCE Exposure to excessive heat can cause illness, injury and death. Approximately 400 people die each year from exposure to heat due to weather conditions, and many more people die from health conditions that are exacerbated by exposure to excess heat. Heat waves bring unusually high temperatures that may last for days or weeks. Although the human body has effective systems to cool itself, under some conditions, these mechanisms are not enough. In such cases, a person's body temperature may rise rapidly. Very high body temperatures can cause severe damage to the brain, other vital organs and even death. Fans alone may not be as effective above 90 degrees with high humidity. If overheated, people should be advised to seek air conditioning. Air conditioning is the leading protective factor against heat-related illness and death.
