As tornado season arrives, Jason Trego has some advice

About this episode

Jason Trego discusses tornado preparedness and safety measures for families during tornado season in Kansas.

It’s tornado season in Kansas. To help get prepared, we spoke with Jason Trego of Allen County Emergency Management on what to do if a storm approaches, and how to make sure you and your family are safe no matter what rolls our way this season. Trego is Allen County’s Emergency Manager. Part of his job, which he describes as 90% preparation and 10% action, is to make sure Allen County residents are as safe and prepared as possible for extreme weather events. In this week’s episode of “Registered,” we talk with Trego about making plans, reacting to disasters and which the Maryland native would prefer: a tornado or a hurricane.
