Question

What do I do go to the basement or stay in the living room right now its sorta calm i have no clue what to do and what should I look for??

Answer 1

Just stay there and if it gets really bad go in the basement...

Hope ur ok...

Answer 2

If you are scared, go to your basement, get a few flashlights in case the power goes out, and pay attention to your TV/radio.  If you are fearful of a tornado, your basement is one of the safest places you can be.  Take care.

Answer 3

Actually at the moment there are no severe weather watches in effect for Connecticut.  Looking at the radar I see a large area of moderate to heavy rain and thunderstorms, with the strongest storms along the southwest coastline of CT.  I don't know what the sirens are about, though I also see that there is a flash flood warning out for a part of western CT.

Where in CT are you?

Answer 4

my state just got a huge storm last night in ohio. try not to worry too much. the sirons might NOT mean there is a tornado. they are emergency sirrons and not only for tornados i would go to a weather website like weather underground and look at a radar it should tell you were the storm is right now and turn on the tv right now it will tell what is going on now. and try i know it sounds hard to but relaz it will be easer to think if you do  (PS there is a flash flood warning  in CT so stay in living room i just looked on the internet)PPS you wil know its a tornado if you hear a train and if its a flood u will see alot of water on the ground

Answer 5

im in new york. same stuff is happeneing to me. but the sirens are probably fire trucks, im assuming something got struck by lightning.. i hear sirens near me too. and theres nothing really to do but enjoy the beauty of the lightning. its really pretty and this seems like a once in a life time sort of storm. ive never seen anything like it before. there arent any tornado warnings, so just sit tight and wait for the storm to pass. make sure you have flashlights and batteries just incase power goes out. be safe!
