Tornado Warning! Now What?

Tips for Office Tenants caught in a Tornado Warning

April Showers Bring May... TORNADOS! As we've seen over the past few days, tornado warnings can be a common occurrence in the Denver area in the spring. Just 6 years ago we had the largest tornado in Colorado history in the Windsor area in Northern Colorado.

A tornado warning is an alert by the National Weather Service confirming a tornado sighting and location. The Weather Service will announce the approximate time of detection and direction of movement. Wind will be 75 M.P.H. or greater.

DO:
  • Pull blinds or drapes closed, if time allows.
  • Get away from the perimeter of the building and exterior glass.
  • Leave your exterior office and close the door.
  • If you have a portable radio or flashlight, take it with you.
  • Go to a core location (central corridor, elevator lobby, enclosed stairwell, restroom).
  • Protect your head and eyes, lie flat, and make as small a target as possible. 
DO NOT: 
  • Use the elevators. 
  • Go to the first floor lobby or outside the building.
  • Touch any exposed wiring after the tornado passes.
IF YOU ARE IN TRANSIT IN THE BUILDING: 
  • Go to a stairwell for shelter.
  • Do not go to the first floor lobby or outside the building.
  • IF YOU ARE CAUGHT IN AN OUTSIDE PERIMETER OFFICE seek protection under a desk. 

I am not a tornado expert, so please use your own judgment. :0)
