Tornado Emergency
Many people do not know how to properly protect themselves when an actual tornado is sighted."Knowing what to do can save your life and the lives of others." Some tips in case of a tornado: —Evacuate the top floors of buildings. —Stand in an interior hallway or corridor on a lower floor, preferably the basement, in an office, classroom or residence hall. —Stay away from windows and areas of glass. —Seek shelter under sturdy workbenches or heavy tables in a basement. —Take cover under heavy furniture in the center of the house or apartment if a basement is not available. —Avoid auditoriums, gymnasiums, cafeterias and other areas with large, free-span roofs. —Move away from a tornado at a right angle if in open country; if there is not time to escape, lie flat in the nearest depression, such as a ditch or ravine. —Do not stay in your vehicle. —Keep a flashlight with you. —Listen to your radio for the latest information and instructions. —Do not tie up phone lines. —Call 9-1-1 to report a tornado or any emergencies. When a tornado watch is in effect, the weather conditions are favorable for tornadoes. Tornado warnings are issued when an actual tornado has been sighted, during which you should take cover immediately. |
