<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">OSU and most of the state of Ohio is facing a serious threat of a severe weather outbreak including long track and violent tornadoes tomorrow (Tuesday 4/2). In advance of this potential severe weather outbreak,
it is important to remember the following precautions and safety guidelines to prepare for the possibility for a tornado that impacts our campus. Please read and implement the following information:</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin:0in;line-height:105%"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin:0in;line-height:105%"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">If you hear sirens, that means a tornado warning has been issued</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">. Hearing them is your
signal that you need to seek shelter immediately. Sirens will go off when the threat has passed. If they come back on, that means there is an additional threat.
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin:0in;line-height:105%"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin:0in;line-height:105%"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">Here are a few things to keep in mind:</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin:0in;line-height:105%"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin:0in;line-height:105%"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">In the event a tornado warning is issued for campus, a warning siren will sound and/or a Buckeye alert will notify students and staff that a warning
is active.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin:0in;line-height:105%"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">*JUST BECAUSE THE SIREN STOPS DOES NOT MEAN THE WARNING IS OVER. In some cases, the warning sirens are stopped and then restarted in order to bring
them to people’s attention and to avoid complacency with an ongoing siren. Consult the NOAA weather radio warning system to determine if the warning is still ongoing or if it has been cancelled. You may purchase a NOAA weather radio online, at stores such
as Walmart, etc. (<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.weather.gov/nwr&ln_desc=NOAA*Weather*Radio/__;Kys!!KGKeukY!19X0CVLjftKJZA6nde9mSS0CnG74zpnHLNWDPec2H8A7XeImO4IyAfyxB6HecQhs1B8aRZvHjmF7O-XyMzy0NIQZPqsHPjU$">https://www.weather.gov/nwr&ln_desc=NOAA+Weather+Radio/</a>)</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">If you are teaching:</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%"> It is strongly advised that you stop teaching and seek shelter in an appropriate safe place in the building where you are. This
location should be on the lowest floor, in a room without windows, ideally towards the middle of the building. (Think of it as akin to a fire alarm, but instead of going outside, move to lower levels and away from windows.)</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:105%;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">If you are indoors</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">:<b>
</b>Go to the lowest level of a STURDY structure, preferably a basement. Whether you are in a basement or not, go to a CENTRAL ROOM with NO WINDOWS. Put as many walls between you and the exterior as possible. Tornado injuries and fatalities occur as a result
of flying debris. *<b>Mobile homes/trailers are never safe to shelter in.</b></span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:105%;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">If you are in a public place</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%"> (like a store or restaurant): Get OUT of the area with large open spaces and move to a small room like a restroom, a refrigerator/freezer,
or dressing room.</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:105%;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">If you are outdoors: </span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">GET INSIDE the nearest sturdy shelter/campus building if possible.
<b>If you are walking on campus</b>, DO NOT GO HOME. In the time it takes for you to walk home, a tornado could be bearing down. If it is not possible to get inside, find a low-lying area away from hazards such as power lines and trees when possible. Lie down
and cover your head with your hands.</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;line-height:105%;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">If you are in a car:</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%"> If it is safe to pull over and get to a sturdy structure, do so. If you are travelling and there are no buildings around, continue
driving if you can maintain a clear view of blue sky or the horizon ahead. However, most storms approach from the west or south. It is not advisable to continue to drive into a storm. DO NOT SEEK SHELTER UNDER A BRIDGE! Bridges act like wind tunnels and accelerate
the wind. If you are in immediate danger of being hit by a tornado, stay in your vehicle, buckle your seatbelt, put a jacket, blanket or other protectant over your head, and lean over below the windshield and windows to protect yourself from flying glass.</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:105%;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">Never seek shelter in a trailer or mobile home</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:105%">. Mobile homes are not safe in any circumstances. Make arrangements with neighbors, friends, or family
to stay with them on days when severe weather watches are issued locally.</span><o:p></o:p></li></ul>
