How To Prepare For A Tornado

Do you know what to do if a twister comes to your area?

If you reside in a place that regularly gets tornados (like Kansas or Texas), likelihood is you do know what to do when these funnel clouds come to town. Nevertheless, tornados do sometimes show up in less likely locations, and you need to know what to do.

What Are Tornados?

Tornados are funnels from the ground to the clouds created by extraordinarily high speed spinning air. Once they touch down to the ground, they destroy just about everything they touch … timber, bushes, homes, cars, animals … everything. And sadly, they tend to form rapidly with little warning.

Before A Tornado

If you live in an area vulnerable to tornados, you should keep an eye on the weather channel on TV or the Internet or listen for the weather on the radio. Nevertheless, it helps if you recognize what type of weather conditions are likely to accompany tornados as well. So, when you see these situations, be especially vigilant and follow the weather information more closely.

How To Know A Tornado Is Coming

Tornados are practically always preceded by a cold front moving into the area where there's already a warm front with moist air and heavy winds. This added to massive, dark, low couds … or a wall of large, ominous-looking clouds … are perfect conditions for tornados. Also, when a twister is imminent, there is usually rain, hail, and excessive winds. These situations don't guarantee a tornado, but tornados are usually preceded by such conditions. If you see debris blowing in the winds, that's a bad sign.

Tornados tend to be very loud (many individuals describe it as sounding like a freight train), so you'll likely hear a twister coming before you see it. The sky will typically turn greenish or greenish-black.

Getting ready For A Tornado

To be prepared for a twister, you need to keep a kit in your house including a portable communications radio (e.g., FRS or GPRS), a cellular phone with charged batteries, a flashlight (LED type is preferred), and a whistle, horn, or air horn. It's also helpful to incorporate protective clothing, food, water, batteries, and a portable radio to listen to the news reports.

Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: A steam whistle is a device used to produce sound with the aid of live steam, which acts as a vibrating system (compare to train horn). The whistle consists of the following main parts, as seen on the drawing: the whistle bell (1), the steam orifice or aperture (2), and the valve (9). When the lever (10) is pulled, the valve opens and lets the steam escape through the orifice. The steam will alternately compress and rarefy in the bell, creating the sound. The pitch, or tone, is dependent on the length of the bell; and also how far the operator has opened the valve. Some locomotive engineers invented their own style of whistling. High-pitched plain whistle (left) and low-pitched plain whistle (right). 3-bell multi-tone (chime) whistle sounds a musical chord. Single-bell multi-tone (chime) whistle with compartments of differing length and pitch tuned to a musical chord. 6-note "step-top" multi-tone (chime) whistle with 6 compartments of differing length and pitch. The mouth of each chamber is partially walled. A partial mouth whistle ("organ whistle") in which the mouth extends less than 360 degrees around the whistle circumference. "Gong" chime whistle, two whistles aligned on the same axis. Variable pitch whistle; note the internal piston used for adjusting pitch. Ultrawhistle with ring-shaped bell cavity. Helmholtz whistle has a low pitch relative to its length.Steam whistles were often used in factories, and similar places to signal the start or end of a shift, etc. Railway locomotives, traction engines, and steam ships have traditionally been fitted with a whistle for warning and communication purposes. Large diameter steam whistles were used on light houses, likely beginning in the ...More: http: //booksllc.net/?id=204662
