Stay Indoors
If the instructions are given to shelter-in-place, stay indoors until authorities tell you it is safe or you are told to evacuate.
Select a small, interior room, with no or few windows. Close and lock all windows and exterior doors.
Get your disaster supply kit or Go-Bag. It is ideal to have a hard-wired telephone in the room you select (cell phone equipment may be overwhelmed or damaged during an emergency).
Information and/or further instructions may be available from the following sources:
- Radio - 1040 AM

- Local Media
If you are in your car, close windows and turn off vents and air conditioning.
