Answer 1

Stay in side.  Get in the hallway or in the bathtub if there are tornadoes!!!

Answer 2

Sit in the bath tub! If theyre are tornadoes near you i would go in the bat tub, i think most towns back east have a siren that sounds when tornadoes are near. When I was in Kentucky at my grandmas awhile back there was a tornadoe warning but no one seemed to care. I think they have some sort of warning syustem if it is near.

Answer 3

A watch is that it means something might happen. But a warning is what you should be worried about. When there is a warning is when you should take cover.

Answer 4

Here are Examples

Severe Local Storm

A convective storm that usually covers a relatively small geographic area, or moves in a narrow path, and is sufficiently intense to threaten life and/or property. Examples include severe thunderstorms with large hail, damaging wind, or tornadoes. Although cloud-to-ground lightning is not a criteria for severe local storms, it is acknowledged to be highly dangerous and a leading cause of deaths, injuries, and damage from thunderstorms. A thunderstorm need not be severe to generate frequent cloud-to-ground lightning. Additionally, excessive localized convective rains are not classified as severe storms but often are the product of severe local storms. Such rainfall may result in related phenomena (flash floods) that threaten life and property.

Severe Local Storm Watch

An alert issued by the National Weather Service for the contiguous U.S. and its adjacent waters of the potential for severe thunderstorms or tornadoes

7-keep safe

Answer 6

Get prepared. Get your supplies in your basement/cellar. It's best to be safe :D

Hope your state is ok :D

Answer 7

First of all don't panic.  Most of the time when a severe warning is issued it usually ends up just being a lot of rain, a little wind, and light hail, if that.   The big worry is usually cloud to ground lightning and as long as you are inside away from windows you will be fine.

You can always go to your local newsstation website or weather.com to monitor the storms yourself.  Many times a warning can be issued for your county but may not be in your area.

If you see a storm coming your way, just listen for the specifics of the storm.  If there is a high wind potential just go to your basement or a low lying interior area of your house untill the storm passes.

Answer 8

you'll probly be fine...relax please

i live in maryland nd we have gotten a few tornado warnings nd stuff but its fine, chances are nothin will happen.

stay in your basement if you have one if not you can stay in your bathroom, maybe even a closet. you will be fine as long as u stay inside of coruse. also i no this sounds dumb but play a game if you have others over, read a book/ magazine, something to keep you from being scared

Answer 9

Calm down, okay? Staying calm, cool, and collect is important.

A weather watch is just a chance, so there's a very good possibility that it won't affect you. If it would make you feel better you could take some things like non-perishable food, water, flashlights, etc. into your basement.

Until it becomes a warning and tornado sirens start, though, you might as well just calm down. Watch TV, listen to music, watch people be idiots on Youtube?

Answer 10

okay , when it starts, go in the basement with the door closed.

and shut off all the lights upstairs. and just chill.

Answer 11

go to a bathroom or the basement or lay down and have something like a blanket to cover you.
