It can be safe to seek shelter in a closet during a tornado, especially if it is a small interior closet on the lowest floor of your home. Make sure to take additional precautions by covering yourself with a mattress or heavy blankets to protect against flying debris. Remember to stay away from windows and doors.
A closet is small, and as a result, the walls do a good job of supporting each other. In larger rooms the walls have longer spans where they are not supported by another wall, making them more likely to collapse. Additionally, closets do not have windows, which are dangerous to be near during a tornado.
What areas are safest depend on your home. Generally an underground basement or cellar is the best choice. The next best option would be an interior room, hallway, or closest on the lowest floor of the house. A bathroom and especially a bathtub on the lowest floor often offer good protection. If you live in a mobile home you should leave it for a sturdier structure.
