Reply #1: And DON'T be stupid enough to go up under an underpass, get down low to the ground. [View All]

There was a video a few yrs back showing some people who were incredibly lucky to survive taking "shelter" in one of the few underpasses in the country that had an enclosed sheltered place to duck into. Since then, people have been killed trying this and finding that there is no sheltered spot, but instead this gets them higher up (into stronger winds and more debris getting shoved threw them), and there is a wind tunnel effect making the winds even stronger, AND they get hit from 1 side, then another.

Get down low, as low to the ground as you can. A ditch, a depression, anything anywhere if you can't get behind/inside a strong structure. All the debris blowing around is what gets you dead. I remember a line from a report on deaths in the tornado I was in as a toddler. 1 kid was killed because he was impaled by a picket fence.

Chances of you getting sucked up to Oz are minimal, but there is a whole lot of shit being thrown around in the wind.

Cars, and mobile homes, roll. Get a ways away, hunker down, curl up, dig your fingers into the back of your neck and wait.
