A “watch” does not mean a tornado has been sighted or that you should necessarily take cover, only that you should be prepared to do so if a tornado warning is issued. A warning is issued when tornadoes have been sighted. Whenever a warning is given you should take cover—the southwest corner of a basement is considered best. If you’re out doors lie in the nearest depression such as a ditch or ravine. A culvert is good but be careful not to get trapped by flood waters.
