Impact of <strong>the</strong> immediate area could be severe depending<br />

on whe<strong>the</strong>r individuals were able to seek shelter and get<br />

out of <strong>the</strong> trajectory of <strong>the</strong> tornado. Casualties are<br />

dependent on warning systems and warning times.<br />

Impact to responders is expected to be minimal unless<br />

responders live within <strong>the</strong> affected area.<br />

Temporary/Permanent relocation may be necessary if<br />

government facilities experience damage (minimal to<br />

severe).<br />

Localized impact could be severe in <strong>the</strong> trajectory path.<br />

Roads, buildings, and communications could be adversely<br />

affected. Damage could be severe.<br />

Delivery of services could be affected if <strong>the</strong>re is any<br />

disruption to <strong>the</strong> roads and/or utilities due to damages<br />

sustained. Depending on <strong>the</strong> incident size <strong>the</strong> damage<br />

could be severe.<br />

Impact will be severe for <strong>the</strong> immediate impacted area.<br />

Impact will lessen as distance increases from <strong>the</strong><br />

immediate incident area.<br />

Impacts to <strong>the</strong> economy will greatly depend on <strong>the</strong><br />

trajectory of <strong>the</strong> tornado. If a jurisdiction takes a direct hit<br />

<strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong> economic conditions will be severe. With an<br />

indirect hit <strong>the</strong> impact could still be anyw<strong>here</strong> from low to<br />

severe.<br />

Response and recovery will be in question if not timely<br />

and effective. Warning systems and warning time will also<br />

be questioned (minimal to severe)<br />
