This week is Severe Weather Preparedness Week in Indiana.
The Indiana Department of Homeland Security is encouraging you and your family to set up a plan now as the state recognizes Severe Weather Preparedness Week.
With the state already dealing with flooding, this year, homeland security officials are reminding driver to “Turn Around, Don’t Drown.”
They say a car can float in two feet of water and just two inches can move a car off the road.
So, if you see standing water, you’re advised to take a route to avoid it.
As part of Severe Weather Preparedness Week, a statewide tornado drill is planned for 10:15 EDT on Tuesday, March 15.
