Here is a song I put together about a tornado hitting the small town of Haven's Creek. It is a sad, spoken-word song that helps us understand the tragedy of severe weather events.

Some parts of the U.S. are still in tornado season. If you are not, please understand that tornadoes have been recorded in all 50 states. Tornadoes can occur any month of the year, so always be prepared.
I have prepared an online tornado simulation that includes data on the different strengths of tornadoes. It also includes how to prepare your family for the tornado. It graphically demonstrates how an EF1 tornado differs drastically from an EF5 tornado. All tornadoes can be dangerous, and you absolutely should have a plan in place. This sim may not be National Weather Service quality, but it is simply a reminder that tornadoes can be dangerous, and you have to be prepared.

The tornado Shelter locator pattern may get you some giggles from family, but it is a reminder of how important a safe place to shelter is. I can mean the difference between surviving and not surviving and injury.
When you run the simulator, the yellow button will open a document that gives Detailed Steps for Tornado Preparedness. Every step is important. When a tornado strikes is no time to start planning. Plan now.
