When a tornado warning is issued you need to get to the lowest level of your home. Got to a basement or storm cellar if you have one. If not, go into a closet or a bathroom bathtub or some interior room on the lowest floor. If you live in a trailer home, leave it for more substantial shelter. This shelter should be planned out in advance. Having flashlights a battery-operated radio on hand is recommened, as power may go out even if a tornado does not strike. If possible, find something to cover yourself with. Do not waste time trying to open windows.
