Precautionary/preparedness actions
In addition to the tornado this storm is capable of producing
damaging straight line winds.
Do not use Highway overpasses for shelter. Overpasses do not provide
protection from tornadic winds. Vehicles stopped under bridges block
traffic and prevent people from getting out of the storm's path and
to shelter.
The safest place to be during a tornado is in a basement. Get under a
workbench or other piece of sturdy furniture. If no basement is
available seek shelter on the lowest floor of the building in an
interior hallway or room such as a closet.
