If you're unsure about a contractor's credentials perhaps your agent, claim adjuster, Better Business Bureau or Chamber of Commerce can help. Make sure the contractor you hire is experienced in repair work, not just construction. Be sure of payment terms and consult your agent or adjuster before you sign any contracts. A Tornado Watch simply means that conditions are favorable for tornadoes to develop. In this case you should take precautions to protect you and your property, and listen to the radio to keep informed.
Tornadoes are most likely to occur in the late afternoon on a hot spring day.
However, tornadoes have occurred in every month at all times of the day or night. When a tornado watch is issued, be alert for changes in the weather. And be prepared to act quickly. Move cars inside a garage or carport, if possible, to avoid damage from hail that often accompanies severe storms. Keep your car keys and house keys with you.
