It's hurricane season! In the past couple of weeks, we have already had some severe thunderstorms and a tornado, and tropical storm Elsa is passing near my home just now.

The National Weather Service issues hurricane warnings and hurricane watches, but even many native English speakers don't understand what the difference between these terms is.




If you are traveling in the USA and you hear there is a severe weather watch (hurricane watch, tornado watch, etc.), that means a very bad storm will probably happen. Get ready and keep listening to the weather.

If you hear there is a severe weather warning (hurricane warning, tornado warning, etc.), that means a very bad storm is happening now. Get to a safe place.

Thanks for reading and be safe!
