At I. Dachs & Sons, we believe that preparation is the key to safety and resilience. Explore our comprehensive resources for Tornado Preparedness, tailored to help you protect your family, home, and business.
Tornadoes can develop quickly and strike with little warning. Preparation and awareness can save lives. Know how to stay safe and respond.
How to Prepare for Tornadoes:
- Identify Safe Shelter: Designate a basement, storm cellar, or interior room on the lowest floor, away from windows.
- Emergency Kit: Include water, food, first aid, helmets, sturdy shoes, and a whistle.
- Recognize Watches & Warnings: A “watch” means conditions are favorable; a “warning” means a tornado is imminent—take shelter immediately.
- After a Tornado: Watch for hazards, check for injuries, and avoid downed power lines.
- Insurance: Review your policy for wind and tornado coverage.
