TORNADO SAFETY TIPS

At Home

• Go to the basement, under the stairs or under a heavy piece of furniture like a table or workbench.

In School

• Go to the lowest floor or basement.
• Get to interior rooms or hallways and protect your head.
• Stay out of gymnasiums and auditoriums.
• In Public Buildings
• Go to designated shelter, an interior hallway or small room on the lowest floor.
• Stay away from windows.
• Do not go to your car.

In Open Country

• Move away from a tornado at right angles.
• If a tornado is near, DO NOT try to outrun it.
• Get out of your car, lie flat in a ditch or depression.
• Stay away from large trees or metal poles. Cover your head.

In Mobile Homes

• Leave your mobile home immediately.
• If there is no designated community shelter, take cover in a ditch or depression.
• Persons in mobile homes should have a plan of action before threatening weather occurs.
