(NOAA NWS) NWS StormReady |
Overview: |
A voluntary program to provide guidance and incentive to communities interested in improving their hazardous weather operations. Once communities are recognized as StormReady, they can provide their StormReady recognition letter to their regional FEMA National Flood Insurance Program to determine if their activities will be acceptable for Community Rating System credits. Although there are no fees for StormReady recognition, a community may need to upgrade its emergency preparedness infrastructure to qualify for StormReady status. |
