However this is probably a good thread to reassure people that the chances of a tornado are slight,

Also, a Weather Radio can be purchased at a Hardware Store.
It is very handy and can be programmed for your County by your local Firehall.

It is also important to have a minimum 3 day supply of food and water (including for cooking and sanitary needs) for each person and pet in your home. It could take several days for a rescue team to get to you depending on the severity of the storm. Cell phones will unlikely work during this period so you will need to fend for yourself potentially. The Villages CERT will work with the TVPSD to support them in the search and rescue effort, but the time frame will not be like going through a fast food drive through. Keep what you need on hand for your family at all times. (I know Fireboy can give this lecture as well. )
