Tell the caller...

• Go to the basement, or a small interior room on the lowest level of the house. Closets and bathrooms are examples of small interior rooms.
• Wherever you go, get under something sturdy, such as a heavy desk or table, bed or staircase. In the bathroom get in the tub and cover over with a mattress.
• Cover your head and neck with pillows or blankets. Shield small children from flying debris.
• Stay away from the windows! Strong winds in advance of the tornado can shatter glass and you can be severely injured.
• Do not try to open windows - it will not help minimize damage.
