How to deal with tornadoes, advice from Iowa.
Got a tornado warning? Yea, highly doubt you got a basement.
Stay calm, seek shelter. Ideally, you would chill in a room that is as close to the ground (or below), seek out a room with no windows, and, ideally, none of the walls are exterior (as in, all walls of the room are interior). Make sure nothing heavy could fall on your heads.
If you can’t get home, go for a business. Walk in coolers are among the best places you could be in if the tornado goes near. If even that isn’t an option, STAY IN YOUR VEHICLE. Flying debris is the primary threat.
If you are stuck outdoors and the tornado is already near, seek out a drainage ditch or anything alike.
