DAMAGE PATHS.
- PREPARE: THOSE LIVING IN MANUFACTURED HOMES OR ON BOATS ARE
URGED TO RELOCATE TO SAFE SHELTER BEFORE HAZARDOUS WEATHER
ARRIVES.
- ACT: LISTEN FOR TORNADO WATCHES AND WARNINGS. IF A TORNADO
WARNING IS ISSUED, BE READY TO SHELTER QUICKLY.
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: SIGNIFICANT
- THE OCCURRENCE OF SCATTERED TORNADOES CAN HINDER THE
EXECUTION OF EMERGENCY PLANS DURING TROPICAL EVENTS.
- SEVERAL PLACES MAY EXPERIENCE TORNADO DAMAGE WITH A FEW
SPOTS OF CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE, POWER LOSS, AND
COMMUNICATIONS FAILURES.
- LOCATIONS COULD REALIZE ROOFS TORN OFF FRAME HOUSES, MOBILE
HOMES DEMOLISHED, BOXCARS OVERTURNED, LARGE TREES SNAPPED
OR UPROOTED, VEHICLES TUMBLED, AND SMALL BOATS TOSSED
ABOUT. DANGEROUS PROJECTILES CAN ADD TO THE TOLL.
