- Find a secure, safe shelter. Never stay in a mobile home, trailer, high rise, or your car.
- Stay away from any windows. Find an interior room in which you have access to emergency supplies.
- Don’t use electronic devices.
- Don’t light candles. Ensure you have several flashlights with plenty of extra batteries on hand.
- Have your portable radio on so you can monitor the weather and follow any instructions of local authorities.
- Don’t leave your secure area too soon. The storm may appear to have calmed but you may simply be in the eye.
- Wait for the all-clear signal from local authorities.
