In general, there are two (2) types of unusual weather conditions which may occur and for which extraordinary precaution should be taken:
- SEVERE THUNDERSTORM – WATCH or WARNING: Local weather service will issue advisories predicting areas of probable severe thunderstorm activity and the estimated duration of such activity. We strongly recommend purchasing a weather radio for your office
- TORNADO WARNING: By definition, a tornado warning is an alert by the National Weather Service confirming a tornado sighting and location. The weather service will announce the approximate time and detection and direction of movement. Winds will be 75 mph or greater. We strongly recommend purchasing a weather radio for your office.
If a Damaging Storm Occurs:
- Move away from the exterior of the Building to a central area near the corridor or elevator lobby. Stairwells are safe. DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS.
- As you move, try to close the doors of rooms which have windows. Also, be sure the door to your suite is closed tightly, but not locked.
- KEEP CALM. If you are trapped in a perimeter office, seek protection under a desk.
- Once the weather has subsided, report any damage or storm related leaks to the management office - (770) 569-1124.
