National Weather Hazards

Know the threats. Know the steps.

A plain-language education hub for the hazards affecting American households — with impacts, warning signs, and practical prep.

Hurricanes

High winds, storm surge, and inland flooding — often over hundreds of miles.

Prep: Evacuation routes, board-up plan, generator, 7+ days of supplies.

Tornadoes

Short-warning, high-intensity wind events with catastrophic local damage.

Prep: Interior safe room, weather radio alerts, drill your household quarterly.

Floods

The most common and costly U.S. disaster — flash and riverine.

Prep: Flood insurance, elevate utilities, know your flood zone, never drive through water.

Severe Storms

Damaging wind, hail, and lightning — year-round in most regions.

Prep: Surge protection, tree trimming, indoor sheltering plan.

Winter Storms

Ice, snow, and extreme cold with widespread power outages.

Prep: Alternate heat, insulation of pipes, cold-weather kit in every vehicle.

Extreme Heat

The deadliest weather hazard in the U.S. — and rising.

Prep: Cooling plan, hydration, check on neighbors, know heat-illness symptoms.

Wildfires

Fast-moving fires and dangerous smoke, even far downwind.

Prep: Defensible space, go-bag, N95 masks, evacuation ready.

Drought

Long-duration water stress affecting supply, food, and fire risk.

Prep: Water storage, conservation habits, wildfire-hardening at home.
