Having lived through the tornado that decimated my villa neighborhood in 2007, I can tell you I would go to the walk-in closet in the master bedroom.
I grabbed my dog and ran into the master bath, which in retrospect was not a good idea with all the glass that's in there. In the event of a tornado warning, I would stuff my closet with pillows, blankets, and comforters for protection.
