Our director participated in a vital meeting with CIWRO where they discussed forecast and weather information utilized in preparation of wildfire season.

CIWRO gathers feedback from the emergency management and private broadcast sectors about U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) forecast and warning products. For instance, researchers designed and distributed an Oklahoma-wide survey with US National Weather Service Norman Oklahoma and Oklahoma Forestry Services to learn how emergency managers use weather information to prepare for dangerous wildfires. CIWRO scientists also ask questions about what weather information they need and if current products are meeting their needs.

The Region 3 MERC, along with several of our emergency management partners, participated in an exercise at the Fort Cobb dam today. Participating was essential for strengthening emergency preparedness and response. It provided an opportunity to test plans, improve decision-making, and identify areas for improvement in a controlled environment. Engaging with partner agencies is especially valuable, as it enhances inter-agency coordination, clarifies roles and responsibilities, and fosters effective communication. These joint efforts ensure a more efficient and unified response during a real incident, ultimately helping to safeguard lives, property, and critical infrastructure.
