TORNADO WATCH: is issued to warn people of the possibility of a tornado in your area.
TORNADO WARNING: Is issued when an actual tornado has been spotted.
Important Fact: Tornadoes are not always visible and can be hidden in low hanging clouds and heavy rain.
If you are at home when a tornado hits you should take shelter in the basement. If you do not have a basement you should move to the center part of the house, in the smallest room under heavy furniture.
If you are driving or live in a mobile home you should get out of the car or leave your home and take shelter in the nearest ditch or low area.
