ed from flying and falling debris. If you hear a tornado warning, seek shelter immediately!! The storm is known to come at any given moment.Where To Go. During a tornado, you must seek shelter as soon as possible. A storm shelter is the best choice, if you have one. If you have a basement, go there and get under something sturdy to shelter you from falling debris.If you have no storm shelter or basement, go to an interior room without windows on the first floor of your home. Bathrooms are a good choice because the plumbing reinforces the walls. Closets are also a good choice because they normally have no windows. The idea is to put as many walls between you and an approaching tornado as possible. Flying debris can penetrate through exterior walls easily.What To Avoid. Some things to avoid during a tornado are definitely windows. It used to be thought that opening windows would reduce a tornado's damage to a home, but this is no longer considered to be good advice. Leave windows alone completely and get to a safe place immediately.If you are in an automobile, don't drive away from the storm. Seek shelter immediately to avoid having the car being lifted into the funnel. One of the most dangerous places during a tornado is in an automobile so get out as soon as possible!...
