Wisconsin Cancels Tornado Drills Due to Recent Severe Weather
威斯康辛州因近期惡劣天氣取消龍捲風演習
On April 15, 2026, Wisconsin Emergency Management (WEM) and ReadyWisconsin officially canceled the statewide tornado drills that were set for the following day.
2026年4月15日，威斯康辛州緊急事務管理局（WEM）與「準備好威斯康辛」（ReadyWisconsin）正式取消了原定於次日舉行的全州龍捲風演習。
These drills were intended to be a highlight of Severe Weather Awareness Week.
這些演習原是「惡劣天氣宣導週」的重頭戲（ㄓㄨㄥˋㄊㄡˊㄒㄧˋ）。
Greg Engle, the administrator of WEM, explained that because emergency crews were already occupied with real-world recovery efforts, conducting drills would put unnecessary pressure on vital resources.
WEM局長葛瑞格·恩格（Greg Engle）解釋說，由於緊急救援人員正忙於現實世界的災後復原工作，進行演習將對關鍵資源造成不必要的壓力。
While the drill was cancelled, officials urge residents to continue prioritizing their personal safety plans and to ensure they have reliable ways to receive weather alerts.
儘管演習已取消，官員仍敦促居民繼續優先考慮個人的安全計畫，並確保擁有可靠的接收氣象警報途徑。
With the state averaging 23 tornadoes a year, preparedness remains a critical, ongoing responsibility for every citizen, regardless of whether a formal drill occurs.
鑑於該州平均每年發生23次龍捲風，無論是否舉行正式演習，做好防災準備對每位公民而言，始終是一項關鍵且持續的責任。
