PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...



Intense thunderstorm lines can produce brief tornadoes and 

widespread significant wind damage. Although a tornado is not 

immediately likely, it is best to move to an interior room on the 

lowest floor of a building. These storms may 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.
