[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please don’t roast me for asking… When do we need to start hanging out in the basement? Is it just if there are signs of something bad coming like if the storm gets rough? Are we waiting for the noises in the green sky or should we head down there when the winds get high?[/quote] Personally, I would go to the basement if a tornado warning is posted for my area AND the offending stormcloud is moving towards my location. This means, when you get a tornado warning, you check where the originating cloud is: they explain it in the alert. For example, I still went out to walk the dog despite being in a warning area, because I saw that the cell cloud was to my northwest (Poolesville, I'm in Bethesda), and the alert described the storm moving to the northeast... which meant there was no way it could reach me. Otherwise you'll be spending your entire afternoon in the basement. [/quote]
