How do I get severe weather alerts where I live?

AUSTIN (KXAN) -- Knowing what is coming and when it's coming is the first step in staying ahead of severe weather. Whether it's hail, tornadoes or destructive winds, you're encouraged to have multiple ways to get alerts.

Live television

The most immediate way to get information during dangerous weather is turning on the television. The KXAN First Warning Weather team can provide life-saving information over the air, on not one but all three of our in-house channels — KXAN-TV, KBVO-TV and KNVA-TV.
