Tornado season is upon us, as most of us experienced the watches and warnings yesterday! During a tornado, people face hazards from extremely high winds and risk being struck by flying and falling objects. Learn what steps you can take to keep yourself and your loved ones safe during a tornado.

Take shelter immediately if there is a tornado warning or if you see signs of a tornado

  • Take shelter immediately during a tornado warning. A tornado warning is issued when a tornado is sighted or indicated by weather radar.
  • Take shelter if you see signs of a tornado. Sometimes tornadoes strike quickly, without time for a tornado warning. Signs that a tornado may be approaching include
    • Rotating funnel-shaped cloud
    • Approaching cloud of debris
    • Dark or green-colored sky
    • Large, dark, low-lying cloud
    • Large hail
    • Loud roar that sounds like a freight train
  • Keep tuned to local radio and TV stations, or your mobile phone.

If you spot a tornado that is far away, seek shelter and help alert others to the tornado by immediately reporting it to the newsroom of a local radio or TV station. Use common sense and exercise caution.

Winter weather is on its way.  Schools around our area have already announced closings and the grocery shelves are bare in preparation for the winter storm.  We thought now would be a great time to review safety tips for driving on ice and snow.  Of course, it's always best to stay in if there is ice on the roads, but if you must get out, here are a few tips.

Motorists be aware - It's Deer Season, and November is the prime month for Deer Collisions...  Proceed with Caution!

It turns out those deer crossing signs on the side of the road are well worth paying attention to.

Thanks to seasonal analysis, November has been determined as the riskiest month for motorists in areas with established deer populations.

If you hit a deer, your insurance company will almost certainly be involved. It's those auto insurance companies that are able to provide the best information, and those reports are eye-opening this year because of the Covid-19 pandemic that affected just about everything in the past year and a half.

During the 12-month period between July 2020 and June 2021, an estimated 2.1 million deer-vehicle collisions occurred across U.S. roads. That's 7.2% more than in the previous 12 months.

There are several key times each year when people spend time shopping in stores and online for the perfect gifts for their loved ones, or themselves. While it is easy to get caught up in the fun of it all, it is important to remember that with increased purchasing comes a heightened risk of theft. Thieves on the prowl throughout the holiday season are on the lookout for packages left in your car or outside your home.

Recent claim data shows that, on average, more thefts occur on Black Friday than any other day of the year. Not only that, but personal identity theft can also increase this time of year. Claim data also shows that theft claims increase in April, likely due to people spending their tax refunds. Whether it is tax season or holiday season, be sure to take the necessary actions to help protect yourself. Follow these steps while checking things off your shopping list.
