Mobile and manufactured home residents are urged to develop a shelter plan as part of Fall Severe Weather Preparedness Week. Authorities warn that these homes are not safe during tornadoes.
Residents should identify a sturdy building or designated storm shelter nearby and know the route to reach it quickly. Having a plan can save lives during severe weather events, officials said.
The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency released a final educational video highlighting important safety tips for mobile and manufactured home residents. The video aims to increase awareness and preparedness ahead of the fall storm season.
