Safe Shelter Locations

In the event of an extreme weather emergency, such as a tornado or hurricane warning you should seek safe shelter immediately. Always remember to stay inside, away from windows and doors. Do not use an interior area with a large expanse of roof. There may be multiple safe areas provided for each building. The decision of which safe shelter area to seek should be based on your location within the building and the estimated length of time before the predicted event.
