You will be able to practice your plan for severe weather this week — and not just because a statewide tornado drill is scheduled for Wednesday.

The National Weather Service issued a flood watch for much of northeast Wisconsin early Monday due to expected rainfall Monday evening, following a drenching on Sunday. The agency is also warning of a slight risk of severe weather from 4 to 10 p.m. Tuesday, with large hail, damaging winds and additional heavy rain in the forecast.

The spring storm comes as the country recognizes National Severe Weather Awareness Week. Kewaunee County Emergency Management Director Tracy Nollenberg says now is a good time to review your safety plan at home.

As part of Severe Weather Awareness Week, statewide tornado drills are planned for April 16 at 1:45 p.m. and 6:45 p.m., with a backup date of April 17 in the event of severe weather.
