What Should You Do If a Tornado Threatens?

Tornadoes can be scary, but knowing what to do can help keep you safe. Here are some tips to protect yourself and your loved ones:

• Pick a Safe Room in Your Home: Find an interior room without windows or doors, such as a closet or bathroom. Choose this room before a storm hits so you’re ready. Bring items like a mattress, pillows, or a bike helmet to protect your head.
• Know the Difference Between a Watch and a Warning: A tornado watch means conditions are right for tornadoes to form, but none have been seen yet. It’s a signal to stay alert and be ready to act. A tornado warning means a tornado has been spotted or picked up by radar and is a real danger. If there’s a warning, go to your safe place immediately.
• Stay Informed on Changing Conditions: Make sure to listen to weather updates on the radio or TV. Keep a battery-powered radio handy in case the power goes out. Download a weather app to your smartphone so you can keep up with the latest updates even if your home loses power.
• What Is a Safe Place?: Mobile homes are not safe during tornadoes. Plan ahead for where you and your family could go for better protection, like a sturdy neighbor’s house or an office building. Always pick an interior room in the building for the best safety.
