Tornado Safety

Lots of good advice here. Flying debris is the most dangerous part of a tornado unless you enjoy flying around in your RV or tow vehicle. Walls collapsing on you is not fun either. After seeing a 2 x 4 embedded in a tree did I fully understand the power behind one of these things. I have also seen wire fences twisted into cable and whole sections of a forest torn into toothpicks. We take watches and warnings seriously. We have learned how to read the book on a radar. And we have learned to respect the potential of a microburst after having 120mph winds destroy our town a year after we had the pleasure of a tornado. Yes the chances are slim but are real and the damage caused by a tornado is severe enough to warrant respect. Indiana is not named Hoosier tornado alley for no reason.
