Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Heavy rainfall may obscure this tornado. Take cover now! If you wait

The safest place to be during a tornado is under a workbench or other
piece of sturdy furniture. Seek shelter on the lowest floor of the
building in an interior hallway or room such as a closet. Use
blankets or pillows to cover your body and always stay away from
windows.

If in Mobile homes or vehicles... evacuate them and get inside a
substantial shelter. If no shelter is available... lie flat in the
nearest ditch or other low spot and cover your head with your hands.
