Keep an eye on the forecast, folks! One key to staying safe is understanding weather alerts. Our colleagues at the Normal, Illinois, Fire Department came up with this easy way to remember the difference: Watch 🟧 - We have the ingredients to make tacos. Warning 🟥 - We are having tacos. Right now. These alerts are no joke. When a warning is issued, take immediate action to stay safe. Keep up with changing conditions by signing up for Orange County government alerts at bit.ly/4fv6n9o. Learn more about our all-volunteer squad at sors.us. #weatheralerts #hurricaneprep #ems #technicalrescue
