What should you do during a tornado if you are already inside a building such as a house or a school?

Go to a basement or cellar if you can. If one is not available go to an interior room, hallway, or closet on the lowest floor. A bathroom often provides good shelter. The idea is to get as low in the building as you can and put as many walls between you and the tornado as possible. Avoid windows as much as you can.
