Spring Showers Are Coming — Are You Ready?

Spring is (almost) in the air! With the changing season, you might notice more rain showers and occasional storms happening. But along with these seasonal changes come extreme weather events — like heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, and even flooding. While these events are part of the season, they can sometimes take us by surprise. That’s why it’s a great idea to get prepared with the Ready for Anything mission.

When you accept the Ready for Anything mission, you can explore extreme weather through engaging and hands-on activities. You’ll discover why storms happen, how floods form, and what you can do to stay safe when the weather turns wild! Understanding the “why” behind extreme weather makes it easier to be proactive, rather than reactive.

One of the best ways to be ready is to create your own emergency plan and kit. Think about the essentials you’d need if a storm hits — things like flashlights, batteries, snacks, water, and a first aid kit. By gathering these items ahead of time and knowing what to do in an emergency, you’ll feel confident and prepared no matter what the weather brings!

That’s not all! Finish the Ready for Anything Mission this month to earn double points and learn skills that help you stay safe. Best of all, you’ll level up as an Emergency-Ready Earth Ranger!
