The Southeast US (SEUS) is uniquely impacted by nocturnal tornadoes and flash floods; these events are difficult to forecast and warnings are often under-received due to the timing. This interdisciplinary project assesses spatiotemporal patterns and social/behavioral risk factors for SEUS nocturnal tornadoes and flash floods, especially among socially vulnerable populations. The aim is to improve protective action decision-making, nocturnal hazard warning reception, and develop visual risk communication products.
