Severe Storm Safety Information

Follow these emergency procedures in the event of a tornado warning or severe storm warning. (Please familiarize yourself with the storm shelters located in academic buildings and residence halls before an emergency).

In general, go to the lowest level of a building, away from windows and into an interior room or hallway.
If you are outdoors, go indoors to the lowest level of a building.
If you are outdoors and unable to seek shelter, lie flat in a ditch or low spot and cover your head with your hands.
Remain in the storm shelter and monitor a weather radio or cell phone until the storm warning has expired.
If you are injured or need help, call Public Safety at (402) 280-2911 for emergency assistance.
