March 4-10, 2007 is Severe Weather Awareness Week in Texas, aptly timed to remind Texans of inevitable and unpredictable Spring storms. So National Weather Service offices in Texas combined resources developed a Severe Weather website with advice and links to a variety of resources: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/lub/swaw

Here are several different kinds of weather conditions that those living in Collin County may encounter at different times of the year. These pages offer suggestions of what to do during and after severe weather, as well as interesting weather facts:
