The No-Nonsense Guide To Tornado Safety

This book could save your life! The No-Nonsense Guide To Tornado Safety is the first in a series of crisis manuals focusing on natural (and man-made) disasters. This guide is designed to provide a comprehensive source for the latest research related to tornado safety. Subjects covered include: providing a basic survey-level understanding of tornadoes; addressing long-held tornado myths; how to be proactive in preparing for a tornado event; providing sound advice by government and weather professionals/researchers on the best courses of action during a tornado; the best shelter during a tornado; and how to remain safe after a tornado event has occurred. This manual also contains several useful appendices that include a listing of government and charitable resources (for those affected by tornado disasters) a list of useful weather-warning smartphone and computer apps and a list of local and privately-operated designated tornado shelters across the country for those without access to their own shelters.
