The procedure is similar for a moderate risk. You should be on alert for signs of severe weather and should be prepared to act quickly if a severe thunderstorm moves into your area. Check local weather advisories regularly on the day for which the high risk is issued. The Weather Channel often provides good coverage of events significant enough to prompt a high risk outlook. You may also want to check the National Weather Service website (Link below). Also keep a battery powered weather radio handy.

What is the connection between severe storms and dew point?
Dew point is the temperature at which water vapor condenses from air of a given moisture content. When moist air gets lifted it cools and eventually reaches its dew point, causing the moisture to condense and form clouds. If there is enough energy in the air this condensation releases enormous amounts of energy that can power severe storms.
