Previously, similar events occurred only on the coast of the ocean. Now hurricanes happen in places very far from the coast. The storm can last several days, a hurricane - several hours, the tornado passes quickly a narrow strip, but very low pressure is created inside the funnel, so a tornado can draw locomotives, tons of water and anything. In 2014, a tornado hit a 39-year-old woman. After 12 minutes, flying 18 kilometers, she sank to the ground. She lost one ear and hair on her head. The hand was broken. Many small wounds. However, Renee Truth herself believes that she was very lucky, because she managed not to perish.

The danger of a hurricane and in the huge speed of the wind, which bogus poorly fixed structures, fragile structures, tears up the roots with roots, breaks and throws branches. Any splint that flies during a hurricane can turn into a weapon of murder. Therefore, in Japan, at the epicenter of the hurricane, the weekend is declared, the aviation and railway communication is discontinued. People have the opportunity to sit out at a dangerous time at home. They stock up on food and movie cassettes and wait out the bad weather.. However, often the house also ceases to be a refuge. Hurricane carries with it floods, landslides.

If you saw a pillar of air in the form of a funnel, you should immediately seek shelter. The ascending column of air has a monstrous destructive power. Shelters can be strong buildings, metro stations, space under a bridge or reinforced concrete canopy, cellar. In the house you should close the windows, doors and windows. Do not use electrical appliances and gas stoves at this time.. Do not touch the central heating pipes, gas supply, water supply. It is desirable to close the valves. In extreme cases, a cover can be an underground passage (if there is no threat of flooding), a basement, any pit, a roadside ditch, where you should head down from the approaching tornado. Close something with your nose, eyes and ears from the sand. The most unstable part of any building is the roof, so you can not hide on the roof or the attic.

You can not stay in high places and near power lines, trees, tornadoes and hurricanes can be accompanied by a thunderstorm.

Stay away from dangling wires. If you are traveling in a car, muffle the engine and, closing the windows and doors, wait for the tornado. The ideal option - to catch the time under the railway bridge.

After the hurricane subsides, leave the house, being careful, the process of destruction has not yet ended. In the house, you should check if there is damage to the utility networks, and only then use them.
