California, Imperial County

Public Information Statement

Statement as of 5:16 PM MDT on August 27, 2008

A Severe Thunderstorm Warning has just been issued for a portion of
south-central or southwest Arizona... or far southeast California.
Please follow these safety rules if severe weather threatens your
area.

If you are caught outside during a severe thunderstorm... seek Refuge
from the storm in a strong building.

Boaters on area lakes should take shelter. Intense lightning... very
strong winds... hail and very heavy rain may combine to make for very
dangerous conditions in and around the water.

Severe thunderstorms produce damaging wind in excess of 60 mph...
destructive hail... deadly lightning... and possible very heavy rain.
For your protection move to an interior room on the lowest floor of
your home or business. Heavy rains flood roads quickly so do not
drive into areas where water covers the Road.

Severe thunderstorms may infrequently produce weak... short lived
tornadoes.

In addition to large hail and damaging winds... extremely intense
lightning is likely with severe thunderstorms. Stay away from tall
objects. Move indoors if possible. When indoors... stay away from
windows and doors and avoid using the telephones and electrical
equipment. Stay out of bathtubs or showers because lightning can
travel through water pipes.

Never touch downed or broken power lines. Do not handle live
electric equipment in wet areas. Report broken utility lines to the
appropriate authorities.

Strong thunderstorm winds can also produce dust storms with a
sudden drop to near zero visibility in desert areas. If you get
caught in a dust storm while driving... pull off to the side of the
Road as far as you can... put your vehicle in Park... Turn your
lights all the way off... and take your foot off the brake. If
somebody sees your tail lights... he or she may think that you are
still on the Road. This is the reason for turning your lights all
the way off and taking your foot off the brake.
