An internal memo reviewed by Grist showed the National Weather Service has stopped translating radio alerts in the southern region, a move that has enraged workers in the local offices.
You’re supposed to move to the safest area in your house, like a bathroom or closet towards the center of the structure, preferably with close walls and no exterior windows, and stay there until the danger has passed. Bring pets and bottled water.
I’m well aware or the recommendations, including that those instructions specifically do NOT apply to mobile homes/trailers. The instructions for mobile homes/trailers is the same as for a car or truck; leave and shelter in the closest appropriate shelter or lie down in a ditch while trying to protect your head.
Oh, sorry. I thought you said you didn’t know what you were supposed to do. Laying in a ditch during severe weather is a pretty shitty solution, even if it’s technically safer.
