No. You should take cover in a ditch only as a last resort if no other shelter is available. A ditch is simply better than being completely exposed. The only truly safe place is underground or in a reinforced enclosure such as a tornado shelter or bank vault.

If you are caught out doors during a tornado, it is best to find an underground area where the wind can't reach. Don't go somewhere where the wind can flow through as it will possibly intensify wind speeds.
