If a Warning is issued or if threatening weather approaches:
-
In a home or building, move to a pre-designated shelter, such as a basement.
-
If an underground shelter is not available, move to an interior room or hallway on the lowest floor and get under a sturdy piece of furniture.
-
Stay away from windows.
-
Get out of automobiles.
-
Do not try to outrun a tornado in your car; instead, leave it immediately.
-
Mobile homes, even if tied down, offer little protection fromtornadoes and should be abandoned.
-
Occasionally, tornadoes develop so rapidly that advance warning is not possible. Remain alert for signs of an approaching tornado. Flying debris from tornadoes causes most deaths and injuries.
