This should be in a basement or cellar if you have one. If not, seek shelter in an interior room, hallway, or closet on the lowest floor. A bathroom often provides good shelter. Crouch down low against a wall. Avoid windows. If possible, wear a bicycle or football helmet to protect against debris. If you live in a mobile home pick a nearby sturdy building or house in which to take shelter.
