Tornadoes are the most violent atmospheric phenomenon on the planet.
Winds of 200-300 mph can occur with the most violent tornadoes. The following are instructions on what to do when a tornado warning has been issued for your area or whenever a tornado threatens. Wrap yourself in overcoats or blankets to protect yourself from flying debris. In schools, hospitals, factories or shopping centers, go to interior rooms and halls on the lowest floor. Stay away from glass enclosed places or areas with wide-span roofs such as auditoriums and warehouses.
