Wind is very powerful and uncontrollable force of life. It can tear trees out of the ground, blow houses apart, create violent weather conditions and damaging situations. Many people think of tornadoes as the most powerful and damaging wind issue. Although tornadoes are very damaging and powerful, studies have shown that it is more common for harsh thunderstorms to produce larger damage, and this happens more frequently, than a tornadoes.
In order to make sure that you are safe from any damage when encountering brutal wind conditions, you should remain inside and away from windows. Board up any doors, cracks, seals, and glass if necessary, and remember to remain calm. If you have the time while it is still safe, secure your light weight items, such as empty garbage cans or small trees, so that they will not blow away and create more of a mess. Park cars in a sheltered area if available, and stay out of the water! Watch your local news station, or listen to the radio, to hear more information about weather conditions in your area, and to hear the tips recommended for your situation in order to remain safe.
