 "The ReliaWeather Severe Weather Awareness Program served as the basis in which ReliaWeather.com was founded, following the rare and deadly 2002 Veteran's Day Weekend tornado outbreak that devestated parts of Van Wert and Putnam Counties in Northwest Ohio."
Did you know, floods claim more lives each year than all other hazardous weather combined? Weather awareness can help save lives, in the event a severe weather emergency is issued for your community!
