PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...



This is an EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION with tornado like wind

lowest floor of a building. These storms have the potential to cause

serious injury and significant property damage.



Continuous cloud to ground lightning is occurring with these storms.

Move indoors immediately. Lightning is one of nature's leading

killers. Remember, if you can hear thunder, you are close enough to

be struck by lightning.
