Surviving a Tornado in Open Terrain - Your Action Plan
Weather warning issued for Krasnodar area
Should you find yourself in an open terrain with no shelter in sight during a tornado, here's some life-saving guidance:
- Locate the closest ditch, hole, ravine, depression, or valley. Lie flat on the ground, pressed tightly against the earth, and cover your head for protection from flying debris and fierce winds.
- Avoid taking shelter under bridges or overpasses - these structures can intensify winds, creating dangerous wind tunnels.
- If you're in a vehicle and unable to reach a nearby building, park in a safe spot, keep your seatbelt fastened, crouch below window level, and shield your head with your arms.
- If it's possible and safe, attempt to drive at a right angle to the tornado's path to reach solid shelter without trying to outrun it directly, unless you have clear visibility of its course.
By following these steps, you'll reduce exposure to flying debris and intense winds found in open areas without conventional shelters [1][3][5].
