Stormling — Severe Weather & Preparedness Eye of the Storm Bunker

Hi!

I'm Stormling.

Welcome to Eye of the Storm Bunker!

Will you help me investigate severe weather & preparedness?

The Grumblies have mixed up our clues.

Let's check the evidence!

Severe weather can create hazards such as flooding, strong wind and lightning.

Conditions and useful protective actions depend on the hazard.

Which information should guide this fictional choice?

  • B. The supplied official alert

The answer is B: The supplied official alert

and directs the team to remain in its sheltered planning base.

Choose that supplied plan, then check for updates with a grown-up.

That clue helps us make sense of this place.

preparation can still be useful when the outcome is uncertain.
