Tornado Watch and Potential Use of Storm Report Survey

Attention Bismarck Area Residents: This is a preparedness message as a result of the current "tornado watch" issued by the National Weather Service, which includes the Bismarck area. In the event there would be impact to Bismarck (tornado, hail, wind, etc), you're invited to use the storm report survey tool to share impact at your location (shared with Bismarck Emergency Management). In the event of storm impact, please monitor local media and the National Weather Service, and wait until conditions are deemed safe prior to use of the storm report survey.

If we have an actual significant storm event, step one is to call 9-1-1 to report any immediate need for emergency response for the protection of life prior to using the storm report survey. The intent of the storm report survey is limited in purpose to follow-up planning for potential recovery efforts at the community level.

Unfortunately, city staff cannot provide assistance in using the survey tool at this time. If you have difficulty, please discontinue use of the storm report survey tool. You are welcome to review the survey tool ahead of time. It can be reviewed without necessarily submitting a response.
