The annual statewide severe weather exercise will be held at March 8 at 1:30 p.m.
Facilities managers should notify all occupants of campus buildings of the exercise and implement existing evacuation plans, including the following steps:
- move to interior corridors away from doors and windows, preferably in a basement or lower floors;
- avoid auditoriums, gymnasiums, or other areas having a wide, free-span roof;
- if outdoors, lie flat in the nearest depression such as a ditch or ravine. If there is time, move away from the path of the tornado at a right angle.
