A Tornado Warning means immediate danger! A tornado has been spotted or indicated by radar in your area. Act now, not later.

Watch out for dark, greenish skies, continuous roaring sounds like a freight train, and heavy hail mixed with sudden calm winds.

Get to the lowest floor of a sturdy building right away. A basement or storm cellar is safest. Avoid windows at all costs.

Head to an interior room without windows—like a central hallway, bathroom, or closet. Put as many walls between you and the storm as possible.

Cover your head and neck with arms, thick blankets, or cushions to shield against flying debris, which causes most severe injuries.

Never try to outrun a tornado. Drive to a sturdy shelter if possible. If stuck, stay buckled with your head below window level.
