Common misconceptions about storm safety
The biggest problem is people rely on tornado sirens. We are in a new age where we have social media and weather radios. People need better ways of getting the warning and moving to a FEMA approved storm shelter or a basement.
Preparing for a storm
Make sure you have ways to listen for weather alerts. Have a place to go for safety, such as a FEMA approved storm shelter or basement. And make sure you have at least a bicycle helmet. The majority of fatal storm related cases come from blunt force trauma to the head. Stay safe!
Mistakes to avoid during a storm
I can't say this enough, and several other meteorologists have said the same: DO NOT RELY ON TORNADO SIRENS!! Rely on weather alerts through social media and weather radios.
