On Tuesday, DeKalb County Emergency Management Agency officials spent part of the day making sure that storm shelters are ready for Wednesday.
The EMA director told WAAY 31 that it s important to make sure you have multiple forms of communication, as well as a plan for if things get dangerous.
People in DeKalb County tell us that ahead of Wednesday s potential severe weather, they have the tragedy of April 27, 2011 in the back of their minds. DeKalb County saw the second highest amount of deaths as a result of storms that day.
