What is the difference between a Tornado Watch and a Tornado Warning issued by the National Weather Service?
Tornado Watch:
Be Prepared. Tornadoes are possible in and near the watch area.
Tornado Warning:
Take Action. A tornado has been sighted or indicated by weather radar. There is imminent danger to life and property. Move to an interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy building. Avoid windows. If in a mobile home, a vehicle, or outdoors, move to the closest substantial shelter and protect yourself from flying debris.
