There are several ways to keep yourself informed during severe weather. This may include watching television, getting newspapers, using the internet and also calling up friends and relatives among other ways.
A typical thunderstorm does not pose many safety risks if at home. Be careful if the power goes out due to the storm, and keep an eye on the weather or the news so you are aware if the storm escalates. Know where extra flashlights and batteries are in case of a power outage. If you are in a car during a storm, drive safely and slowly on the wet road. Cars are safe during a lightning storm, but being inside a building is a safer place to be.
Two ways to keep yourself informed during severe weather are checking Weather Underground's website and by texting ChaCha.

No. A volcano on its own is a geologic structure. A volcanic eruption is a geologic event.
That depends on what the weather event you are asking about is.
In the United States, it is severe if there is hail larger than 1" in diameter, wind gusts greater than 58 mph, or a tornado.
A typhoon is considered weather as it is a single event.
A tornado is a violent windstorm generated by a thunderstorm. That qualifies it as a dangerous weather event, and therefore a form of severe weather.

Yes. Even in the worst severe weather event most people will survive. That said, it is still not known exactly how severe this outbreak will be.

No. A volcano on its own is a geologic structure. A volcanic eruption is a geologic event.
Like any other severe weather event, tornadoes release energy that has built up in the atmosphere.
Tornadoes originate from severe thunderstorms, most often a type of rotating storm called a supercell.
Since a tornado is a severe weather event, the formation of one would be studied in meteorology.
Hurricanes are the most destructive type of weather because they strike with a combination of powerful winds, flooding, and large waves all over a very large area. By comparison, tornadoes, which are the most violent weather event, can produce more severe damage but only on a very localized scale.
Tsunamis are not a weather event.
That depends on what the weather event you are asking about is.
Given that the potential for strong tornadoes is already being mentioned in the day 4-5 outlooks, that is a possibility. However it is too early to tell what will happen, or even if this truly will be a major event as predicted. A small shift in conditions can significantly affect the outcome of a severe weather outbreak.
