While many may assume tornadoes happen only in certain places such as Tornado Alley, the truth is that they’ve been documented in every state and country. If you’re home when a tornado arrives, stay there. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Northville and Novi neighborhoods and we know that shelter is your best protection from getting pummeled by debris, or swept up yourself. But just because you’re home doesn’t mean you’re in the clear—particularly since much of the tornado safety advice we’ve been taught is inaccurate. Forget about the old notion of opening windows to equalize pressure. It doesn’t work. In fact, opening them just lets the tornado in to wreak more havoc. Windows will shatter no matter what if the gusts are strong enough so just stay away from them entirely. The safest room in your home is your basement, if you have one—if you don’t, head to the lowest floor possible and situate yourself in a small interior room without windows, such as a closet, bathroom, hallway, or under the stairs.
