But it's best to prepare for what might come

COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Severe weather season is here in Colorado.

The spring has been relatively quiet, but things picked up Sunday, June 7, as tornadoes were spotted all over the Denver metro area. This is a reminder that severe weather is possible just about anywhere.

In fact, June tends to bring the most instability and severe weather to the state.

It's always a good reminder to have a plan in place should severe weather occur.

If lightning or a storm is approaching, seek shelter immediately. In the case of a tornado, be sure to seek shelter in a basement of the lowest level of a sturdy structure and stay away from windows.

These tips can help keep you and your family safe during a strong or severe thunderstorm.
