Tornado Safety Poster
by: monique kwot
Have you ever felt like their was a tornado coming?...
Has the sky ever just turned a really dark color and you couldn't predict what was going on? Then it started pouring rain...and you couldn't tell if it was a tornado, or other dangerous disaster?
Be informed of the signs of a tornado
- if the sky becomes a darker color (grey, greenish)
- Loud rumble that doesn't go away like thunder might
- (blue, green, white) flashes on ground
- witness debris falling from the sky
Be somewhere with a basment
- keep away from windows
- go under something that will protect you like a table
- head protection (put hands on neck and be in a crouch position) just in case something does fall on you..
Have supplies..?
- radio
- flashlight
- water
- food
- blankets
- Other (materials that will keep you safe and protected)
DO NOT!!!
- "try and outrun a tornado"...thats very dangerous
- if your outside, don't just stand their go to a steep or a low ditch
- stay away from power lines and things that may electrocute you
After a tornado....
- stay where you are until it is safe to come out
- help anyone out that you see injured or need help
- KEEP AWAY FROM AND POWERLINES
