(A) Familiarize yourself with those terms as “tornado watch” and “tornado warning.”
(B) In case of a “tornado warning,” the department head or elected official should notify their staff when to proceed in a safe manner to the lowest area in the building or basement if one is present. If there is no basement, go to a room in the center of the building and seek shelter under a sturdy table or desk.
(C) Never stand in front of or near a window. Stay away from outside walls. Do not leave the building. If your building is severely damaged, assist emergency personnel in giving locations of injured persons. Assemble in the pre-selected area after the storm has passed.
