With the tragic events in Joplin, MO yesterday and our forecast for today, I thought it a good time to provide all of you some safety tips as well as a resource for now and in the future.
• Seek shelter in a windowless interior room in the lowest level of the house. Go to the basement, if you have one. Stay away from windows.
• If you are caught in the open during a tornado, stay low and go to a drainage ditch or other low point on the ground.
• If you are in your vehicle during a tornado, get out of the vehicle and go to a drainage ditch or other low point on the ground. Do not try to outrun a tornado.

A great resource from Weather.com: Severe Weather: Track the Storms
As always, be safe and be prepared!
