 Response: What to do during a tornado?
 

In homes

Go to a storm cellar, cave, underground excavation or to the southwest corner of your basement. Get under sturdy furniture if possible

If you have no basement choose an inside wall away from windows and lie flat against it. Central halls bathrooms, and closets are good places. Get under heavy furniture, if possible, to protect yourself from flying glass and debris.  Make sure to stay away from windows. Keep tuned to a battery-powered radio for latest weather information.
