(KLZA)-- March 24 - 28th is Severe Weather Awareness Week in Nebraska.

The Nebraska Emergency Management Agency is encouraging state residents be prepared during Nebraska's severe weather season.

You can prepare for severe weather by making sure everyone in your home knows and understands what to do if you were asked to evacuate on short notice.

Suggestions include starting a conversation with your friends and family about how to communicate before, during and after a disaster.

You should gather supplies that will last for several days after a disaster for everyone living in your home, remembering those with special needs including your pets.

Parents should talk to their children about preparing for emergencies and what to do in case you are separated.

Be sure to find out what disaster could impact the area where you live and where you would go if you and your family need to evacuate.
