Severe storm: warn residents in good time
A severe storm is causing fallen trees, flooding and power cuts all at once. CrisisRadar helps local authorities, emergency services and water boards to issue warnings quickly and communicate clearly.
What happens
The KNMI has issued a Code Red warning. Within a few hours, the severe weather strikes: whirlwinds tear roofs off buildings, trees fall onto roads and water levels rise in low-lying streets. Power cuts occur in several places, causing traffic lights and pumps to fail. Reports are pouring in from across the region. Residents want to know if they are safe, which roads are closed and what they should do. At the same time, the local council, the safety region and the water board are working together to minimise the damage. Without a clear overview and a direct line of communication with residents, unrest and confusion ensue.
