Severe thunderstorms likely on Friday
(SOUTHERN COLORADO) — Thunderstorms are expected again over Southern Colorado on Friday, and some of them are going to be strong. There's a lot of wind shear in the atmosphere today, and that is going to help storms rotate. When storms spin, they organize and strengthen. The spin in the storm's updraft helps it to stay separate from the downdraft — this often results in large hail, and that is our biggest threat today. Most of the storms will move east, but any that start to turn to the right, and start heading east-southeast or southeast, may become capable of producing a tornado. A severe thunderstorm and/or tornado watch will likely be issued for parts of Eastern Colorado later on today. A WATCH means that ingredients are present for the possible formation of severe thunderstorms, and you should pay attention. It's similar to Mom or Dad putting the ingredients for tacos out on the kitchen counter – get ready. A WARNING is like the tray of assembled tacos arriving at the table – it's time to take action! Know the difference and be ready later today. Download the FOX21 StormTeam app for Apple or Android to get a digital door knock from us in the weather center when storms are heading your way.

Kauaʻi to survey community for emergency preparedness
LIHUE, Hawaii (KHON2) — The Hawaiʻi Department of Health's Kauaʻi District Health Office will be conducting a Community Assessment for Public Health Emergency Response, also known as a CASPER survey, this month to assess the preparedness of the island's community. From June 23 to June 27, survey teams will canvas 30 randomly selected blocks in the island, with seven houses from each block will also be systematically selected and surveyed. Wanted man arrested after 'crime spree' leads to officer-involved shooting Households will be asked about their plans should an emergency occur or evacuations be necessary, in regards to any climate issues, disease issues and general day-to-day Kauaʻi topics. 'By asking households about their emergency supplies and evacuation plans, CASPER surveys enable the Kauaʻi District Health Office and the county to better meet our community's needs before, during and after a disaster,' said Lauren Guest, a deputy district health officer from the Kauaʻi Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity also added that the surveys help emergency response staff train in the field prior to a local disaster. Survey teams will be made up of DOH staff, Kauaʻi Medical Reserve Corps and the Kauaʻi Emergency Management Agency. The survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete, and participation is voluntary. Responses are completely confidential. This will mark the eighth CASPER survey on the island.
