Tornado Drills

A tornado drill is a method of practicing to take cover in a specified location in the event that a tornado strikes an area. Generally, a signal is given, such as a series of tones. Upon receiving the signal, everyone then proceeds to a designated location, usually an interior room or corridor with no windows, and assume a protective position. Schools are required to conduct regular tornado drills.

1. Have you ever been in a situation where you had to take cover? Does your family talk where to go if you did have a tornado drill at home?

    I've had to take cover but not because of a tornado. We don't have tornado drills at my house because going into the basement is common sense.

    No because the only time a tornado came close to my house I was at my grandmas house. We are to go in the basement because there are no windows, usually in my dads tool room that is now vacant.

    My dad just had a conversation with my family and my baby brother (even though he doesn't know what he is saying)about where we should go if we have a tornado drill. Sometimes he'll wake us up in the morning to practice for tornado I hate it. It's so rude to wake someone up when they are sleeping.
