SUMMARY: Madison County’s Emergency Management Agency (EMA) is upgrading to a new command center at City Hall in Huntsville to enhance community safety during severe weather events. Meteorologist Jessica Komodo reported that this facility will allow staff to monitor a vast array of information simultaneously, improving situational awareness and response capabilities during emergencies. The center features multiple monitors to track local emergency services, news stations, and the National Weather Service. This upgrade is expected to provide better communication and decision-making support, ultimately ensuring better protection for residents against various weather threats like snow and tornadoes.

One of the groups helping keep people safe during severe weather are county emergency management agencies, and the Madison County EMA is getting an upgrade that will help them better serve the community.
