Those Terrifying Tornados: Tips To Thwart Twisters
With the advent of warmer temperatures, a new weather hazard will again be making its debut in many parts of the country — the tornado Every year, tornadoes kill or injure hundreds of people while destroying thousands of homes. Spring is a particularly dangerous time of the year for twisters, with the late afternoon on . warm days a favorite time for them to strike. Although there is little that can be done to prevent structural damage by tornadoes, immediate action can save lives, said Milt Nachbar, Director of Loss Control for CNA Insurance. “First it’s very important to be able to know when conditions for tornadoes exist,” Nachbar said. “If the skies look threatening, listen to your radio or television for severe storm information. ” The National Weather Service monitors weather systems by radar and can usually provide adequate advance warning about severe weather conditions, he added. Some communities also use special warning systems such as air raid sirens. “When a tornado watch has been issued, this means that conditions are right for a tornado," he explained. “You should keep informed of the storm conditions and be prepared to take shelter. If a

tornado warning is issued, this means that a tornado has been sighted and confirmed with a given area. When a warning is issued for your area, take cover immediately.” Nachbar listed the following precautions, depending on where you may happen to be during a tornado warning: • In homes or other small buildings, go to the basement or a place in the middle of the structure, like a closet, bathroom or interior hall that’s on the lowest floor. Get beneath something sturdy, and stay clear of windows or other glass. • In mobile homes or cars, leave them and find shelter in a building If no shelter is nearby, lie flat in the nearest ditch, ravine or culvert with your hands shielding your head. • In very large buildings or shopping centers, look for a predesignated shelter.

CIVILIAN MAIL SERVICE TO IRAN RESUMES The U. S. Postal Service announced today the resumption of civilian mail service to Iran. Airmail service was suspended on January 9 and surface on February 6 because of the lack of reliable air and surface transportation to and from Iran. Mail that was in the U. S.

is none, a middle hallway on tht« lowest floor will suffice. Beside listening to emergency weather information on the radio or TV., you can also use your television (if it isn't a cable hookup) to detect a tornado, Nachbar pointed out. Here’s how: • After turning on your T.V. set and allowing it to warm up, turn to channel 13 • By using the brightness control, darken the screen until it's almost black. • Now turn to channel 2, but don’t readjust the brightness. Keep the screen dark. • Lightning appears on the screen as horizontal flashes or streaks. However, if the screen brightens or if the darkened picture becomes visible, this is a signal that a tornado is within 20 miles or less. Turn off the TV. and take shelter. While detecting a tornado ' by this method is not a foolproof method, he said, it is I a proven method of offering more advance warning, esI pecially in rural areas. Also do not forget to listen for National Weather Service reports. 1 It’s advisable that “tornado drills" be conducted at home , so that family members will know what to do if a tornado threatens, Nachbar said. By taking appropriate action i during a tornado situation, “ disaster can be averted.
