- Go into a building and find a safe room or designated Tornado Shelter Areas
- If a designated space is not available:
- Go to the lowest possible level in a building
- Move away from glass windows, exterior walls and doors
- Move to hallways that are at the center or most interior part of the building
- Move to restrooms without an exterior wall
