How do you reduce risks of tornadoes?

Answer 1

One of the best things to do is pay attention to weather broadcasts and to have a battery operated weather radio. This will help alert you if a tornado is coming or may be forming.

If a tornado is threatening your area the safest place to be is underground in a basement or cellar. Crouch down facing a wall with your hands over you head. If you don't have a basement or cellar go to an interior room or hall on the lowest floor. A bathroom and especially a bathtub often provides good protection. Stay away from windows. Vehicles and mobile homes should be abandoned for sturdier shelter. If you are caught outside and cannot get to safety take cover in a ditch as a last resort.

Answer 2

# Make sure to check to make sure your school and house has a plan in case a tornado were to hit. # If you are in a mobile home or are in a car (If you are ever in a car when you spot a tornado...do not try to outrun it! Many people have lost their lives from trying to do that), when you spot a tornado, make sure to go outside and find a ditch (or hole) to lay in. Lay on your knees (like a rock position) with your face toward the ground, and with your hands over your head. # The safest place to protect yourself in your house would be the basement or a small closet. Never hid next to a window or objects that could harm you.

Answer 3

Go into the lowest area in your house where there are no windows and go to your smallest room in there (Ex. Bathroom) and bring a mattress or Pillows with you so nothing will fly into your face or in any other places of your body (Ex. Stomach) which is my a mattress is preferred. If you are outside or in your car during this find a low spot on the ground (Ex. Ditch/Gutter) and lay there with your hands over your head until the storm is over completely.
