You do the same thing in Florida that tens of thousands of people in Tornado Alley and other parts of the world do in the event of a tornado and you are without basements or shelters; "...avoid windows; go to the lowest floor, small center room (like a bathroom or closet), under a stairwell, or in an interior hallway with no windows. Crouch as low as possible to the floor, facing down; and cover your head with your hands. A bath tub may offer a shell of partial protection. Even in an interior room, you should cover yourself with some sort of thick padding (mattress, blankets, etc.), to protect against falling debris in case the roof and ceiling fail."
There are certain things you should have planned out with your family members as a precaution in the event of any disaster.
