So, last night a large swath of Oklahoma was under a tornado warning. Yep, tornado season has started (although we had one in December last year). Sadly, a mom and daughter got hit by the tornado last night while in their car. I hate when they hit at night. Seven touched down last night.
You may wonder what to do if you’re in a car and a tornado is coming. Don’t try to outrun it. Get out of the car, and get in a ditch. Sure, if it comes with a flash flood you’re in trouble, but a ditch is better than staying in the car. Do not get under a bridge and go high up underneath it. It will suck you out.
If at home, go to the lowest level of your home, get in the center of your home, or in the bathtub. Cover yourself with blankets, and a mattress if you can. Make preparations with bottles of water, dog food if needed, and things like that.
I’m sure I’ve forgotten some things, and I’m sure a lot of you knew this information.

Poor mother and daughter. Were they killed?. Thanks for the tornado info I didn't know all that. It's getting to be that time of the year, although doesn't usually happen here until April.

Sorry about the mother and daughter. Hope that many isn't a sign of a bad season

I saw the mangled vehicle on the news. How terrible. We have a lot of tornadoes here at times and I know it’s a huge concern in your area. I am glad you are always aware of that.

If you have a powerbank for your phone keep it charged. Stay away from windows.

At least I don't have to worry about tornadoes, and I am hoping that the hurricane season will pass me by too, as it did last year. My anxiety cannot take much.
