Mike Hodges is director of the Liberty Emergency Management Agency.

The Liberty Emergency Management Agency is observing Severe Weather Preparedness Week, which runs through Friday. EMA Director Mike Hodges said that since the area is susceptible to a variety of natural disasters and severe weather is dangerous and can strike with little warning, it’s important to prepare in advance. Each day during Severe Weather Preparedness Week focuses on a different type of threat faced by Georgians. Topics include:
• Wednesday: Tornado safety and preparation
• Thursday: Lightning safety
• Friday: Flood safety
On Wednesday, there also will be a statewide tornado drill. For more information about the week and events occurring locally, go to www.libertycountyga.com, email mike.hodges@libertycountyga.com or call 368-2201.
