Let’s review how to keep yourself safe during a tornado.
During a tornado, the safest place to hide inside a house is on the lowest level, preferably in a basement. If the house does not have a basement, go to a small interior room on the lowest floor, such as a bathroom, closet, or hallway.
According to the National Weather Service and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, you should stay away from windows, doors, and outside walls because flying debris can break glass and cause injuries. Once you are in the safe area, crouch down and cover your head and neck with your arms or use items like a mattress, blankets, or cushions for extra protection.
If possible, bring a phone, flashlight, and shoes with you in case debris blocks the house afterward. Stay in the shelter until the tornado warning is over and it is safe to come out.
