Tornado and Damaging Wind Safety

  • Get underground. For example a basement.

  • If an underground shelter is not available, get on the lowest floor of a sturdy building, putting as many walls between you and the outside as possible.

  • Avoid windows, doors and outside walls. Cover your head to protect yourself from flying debris.

  • Mobile homes and vehicles should be abandoned for more substantial shelter.
