Tornado Safety When in a Vehicle

  • Never attempt to outrun a tornado.
  • If time-possible, shelter in a well constructed building. Move to the interior or basement of the building away from windows and doors.
  • If there is no well constructed building available:
    • Exit your vehicle and shelter in a low-lying area (preferably without water) in a protective position with hands over the head.
    • Do not shelter under your vehicle.
