Welcome To SCEMD
The South Carolina Emergency Management Division, a division of the Adjutant General's Office, is the coordinating agency responsible for the statewide emergency management program. SCEMD’s mission is to develop, coordinate, and lead the state emergency management program, enabling effective preparation for, response to and recovery from emergencies and disasters in order to save lives, reduce human suffering and minimize property loss. South Carolina is threatened by many natural and technological hazards. Disasters and emergency situations can happen anytime and anywhere. When disaster strikes, you may not have much time to respond, so it is important that you and your family are prepared.
NOAA Weather Radio
Emergencies such as a tornado touchdown can happen with little to no warning, leaving you only seconds to take action to protect yourself and your family. SCEMD recommends having a NOAA certified tone-alert weather radio with a back up power supply (batteries or hand crank). You want to make sure your NOAA weather radio is programmable for your area so you get the most up to date information about a potential emergency.
