Definitions

'Code Black' over the Walmart speakers means severe weather is bearing down — tornado, hurricane, the kind of thing that turns a Supercenter roof into confetti. Staff start funneling customers away from the glass front and toward interior walls, freezers, and back rooms. If you hear it, stop shopping and follow the vest.

“Sirens went off outside and Code Black hit the PA — they had the whole store crammed into the dairy cooler in under three minutes.”
