What to do in case of a tornado?
The main signs of an approaching hurricane, storm, or tornado are increasing wind speed and a rapid drop in atmospheric pressure, heavy rainfall, and flowing water.
During such natural phenomena, people are threatened with the destruction of roads, bridges, structures, electrical lines, and communications, as well as injuries from debris and shrapnel. It is important to be cautious and follow safety rules.
If a tornado finds you at home:
- Seek shelter in a basement or cellar. If they are not available, choose doorways, as they are the safest places during danger.
- Stay away from windows and choose a doorway that is not in a room with dangerous items that may fall and cause injuries.
- Choose a safe doorway, check for damages after the storm hits, and urgently leave the house if you see pipes or wires.
- Do not enter damaged buildings without the permission of specialists; avoid trees and electrical lines that may be dangerous after the tornado.
If a tornado encounters you on the street:
- It is best to seek shelter in a building. Stay away from trees, advertising structures, and electrical wires.
- Follow safety rules and consider the tornado's trajectory.
- If there are no buildings, stay away from hazardous objects and look for shelter.
- If the trajectory of the hurricane is detected, flee from it and seek shelter outside the city.
- If you cannot hide, lie down on the ground and protect your head.
- Find a dock or an empty pipe where you can take shelter from the storm.
We remind you that due to bad weather, many regions experienced significant interruptions in electricity supply.
