What is the Citys standard operating procedure during severe weather?
During periods of severe weather, we begin monitoring the national weather service WSR-88 D radar. When we see that the weather system is getting close to Ottawa County, we send trained weather spotters out to pre-determined positions throughout the county. They in turn relay reports back to the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) about conditions that they observe. We usually have at least 10 spotters in the field during severe weather events.
