“Severe weather could strike Greene County tomorrow (Wednesday) evening between 5:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m.”  said Roger Axe, Director of Greene County Emergency Management Agency.

“In a statewide conference call with the National Weather Service (NWS) Tuesday, we were advised there would be rain off and on most of Wednesday.  If there is a break in the rain and the sun comes out and heats the air it will become unstable and increase the chance of tornadic activity and strong winds.

According to NWS, the critical time for the severe weather is from 5:00 p.m. to midnight Wednesday.  Several organizations have activities planned for Wednesdays.  We ask people to think if they really need to have such events if there is a potential of severe weather and for attenders to be in possible dangerous weather.

However, if organizations decide to have their events they need to keep and eye on the sky.

The questions are, “Is such an event worth putting lives at possible risk?”  Axe said.
